The Regis was perfect for our 3 night stay in KK. Virtual front desk through WhatsApp was very responsive to all inquiries and the on site staff was extremely helpful. The location next to the Imago Mall was also quite convenient for anything we need plus ehailing to different spots in KK.
Wonderfull property with attentive staff! Great location next to a large shopping mall. Within walking distance of KK waterfront. Large swimming pool available for guest use.
We have stayed here a few times now when travelling through KK and it never disappoints. Staff are so friendly and helpful, location can’t be beat right in the middle of all the shops. There was the occasional rumble outside which I’m guessing is planes overhead but the bed is so soft it’s easy to fall asleep.
Amazing stay here. Staff we so kind, nice water and fresh towels when ever we needed it.
The room was amazing. Super high tech and very grand. Beautiful time at the ritz
Very friendly welcome to stay, property was clean and tidy. Single glazed windows so bring earplugs as under the flight path to Kota Kinabalu airport but easy access to shops and the city centre.
The staff were extremely helpful and attentive!. They even have powerbanks and charging cables in e room. It's also near to the airport so if you do not want to hear aeroplanes then may nt work for you.
We would like to express our appreciation to the Ritz Residence Team for their amazing service even before arriving at Kota Kinabalu. Their exceptional service deserves a 10-star rating.
Everything is new. The amenities are better than a 5-star hotel. They provide Netflix and Amazon Prime at no extra cost. The size of the apartment is a bit small but very well equipped, with a bathtub. They also provide soft drinks at no extra cost.
This place is fabulous! The room was not big but well decorated, and very inviting and cosy. Luxurious touches like the chandelier, sparkly handles and lights, and the quality coffee making area, made us feel like we were in a posh hotel. The room offered every amenity we needed plus more. After a long day travelling the big bed was so soft and comfortable the street noise we could hear was easily forgiven. The bathroom, so large, modern and fabulous, I can’t fault it! Location is excellent with shops and places to eat right downstairs. Service was amazing, super helpful, communicative and very kind and friendly. We will definitely stay here again next time we are in KK.
This was our 2nd stay and it didn’t disappoint. Both times we have stayed 1 night as a stop over between flights.
The service is excellent, friendly, helpful and welcoming. You get the feeling nothing would be too much trouble. We were also given a surprise upgrade this trip, which was very welcome for our family of 3.
The room so cosy and lux. The bed is super soft and comfortable which is just what you need after a long day of travelling, and the bathroom is generous and modern with a large shower and separate bath. Location is excellent right above lots of places to eat and all the shops.
If you value comfort and convenience then this is the perfect place to stay!
Place is in the Imago shopping mall. Many restaurants and shopping near by. Sutera golf club across the street.
Room is very clean and has all fancy things like Dyson hair dryer and electric curtains. Free soft drinks. There are some umbrellas, luggage scale etc to use.
Before arriving call the number. I communicated via Whatsapp and got quickly answer if any questions. Really good service. They have luggage room as well.
Room is not really big size but perfect for couple. Toilet bowl is kind of Asian size and not American standard.
Has the look and feel of luxury with great shopping and location however it is right in the incoming flight path and the windows and sliding verandah door in my room were not sound proofed at all and was offered ear plugs as a solution which I feel is unacceptable. I would not have booked
If I was aware of the excessive constant noise from the planes.
Place was great and the lady who met us was so lovely. However, the checking in process was unclear and the buzzer on the main door was unclear as to which was the Ritz Residence button. I would suggest that the buzzer is clearly labelled for the residence. That aside, loved it. Thanks!
It was not easy to access the property. I did not have an accurate phone number nor the security guard that was at the door did not understand a room was a hotel.

Luxurious room. The only issue is that I use the stairs and discovered that all of the fire doors were open on every single floor. This means that no one would be able to escape that very large building. I reported it to the owner of my room and she said she would report it to management. The next day I went down the stairs again and all the doors were still open. Not only where the doors open there was debris on the stairs, which in an emergency people would fall down the stairs since the stairs would not be lit. Plus, the stairs would be full of smoke due to the fire door was being left open. Other than that, the property was great and the owner was very responsive and helpful.
