Promenade has always been my hotel of choice when in Kota Kinabalu due to its strategic location. Ambiance is great and much has been done to upgrade the facilities at Promenade. For me, it's home away from home.

The hotel is located in the city centre within walking distance to main attraction points such as Gaya Street, commercial squares, and the Kota Kinabalu central market.
