Amazing hotel”
I love this hotel. Very clean, everything is new considering the hotel is new also. My room is Studio type, it is small but comfortable, it worth every penny. Love the rain shower.The location is strategic, close to few Chinese eateries, bar/bistro, laudry bar, mini supermarket. You can just walk to those places. The downside is the TV channels, lack of entertaining channel. Since I rarely stay in the room, I just consider it just a minor cons. If I decided to come to Kuching again, I would stay at this hotel again if the service is still great as the first time I stayed here.

Executive Suite Couple Stay”
The suite is very big, clean & affordable. The staffs are very helpful & friendly. We feel safe and secure staying at the hotel. We arrived at about 10pm & we have time to order our food for dinner. We ordered steak & rack of lamb, the price is cheap & taste very good. The situation of the hotel is a walking distance to the waterfront & topspot for eating seafoods. Travelling to other shopping malls like Sping, Vivacity & Aeon mall by grab are cheap like rm4 to rm6 from this hotel.

Everything is Excellent ”
Fast and easy check-in. Super clean and modern room. Very comfortable bed and pillow. Great location, everything is nearby and within walking distance. All the staff are friendly, helpful and polite. One of the restaurant staff realized my sister is a vegetarian. She quickly arranged for a vegetarian breakfast without us asking. We had an awesome 2 night's stay in a family suite. Highly recommended and definitely will stay again.

Fantastic & Wonderful Stay”
This trip to Kuching was my 1st after over 30 years. Yes, plenty has changed since then. I chose the right hotel in Meritin Hotel. Honestly I don't have anything to complain about at all. Everything from the front desk to the housekeeping staff & location were just perfect! Yes, I will definitely stay here again anytime I am back in Kuching. I wish to single out the housekeeping staff by the name of K or Kay. Frankly I really have no idea which specific department she belongs to but she was everywhere, assisting everyone there. Please keep up the good work, K or Kay. To the management of Meritin, well done for having such a kind, helpful & considerate staff!!!

The staff was really kind and willing to attend any request. Alongside thoughtful amenities and general comfort, an efficient staff that excels at personal attention is a must-have for all hotels. The price I paid was absolutely worth it! This is something every manager longs to hear from his or her guests. I love the buffet breakfast which is served Sarawak Laksa! Definitely will come back again in near future.

Fantastic hotel in Kuching ”
What a great hotel in Kuching. We stayed for 5 days in Kuching and had a great time. The room is very clean, comfortable, fresh and new. The location is great with many (Street food) restaurants around. There are many places nearby to visit. Take a grab and you'll visit all the great places.

Great Hospitality”
A clean and comfort hotel. Room is slightly small, but well for a solo traveller. Located in busy street (with lots food available), quite at night time (old street in the town). Walking distance to the river/ museum. Due to covid19, breakfast was served as ala carte - improvement need for the choices of dishes. Overall, satisfied and happy stays. I stay for 4D3N due to work.
