A great place to stay

I am so impressed by this hotel! The manager is available via WhatsApp and kindly supplied some tea packets and a lovely mini card as I wasn’t feeling well upon arrival (and a cute little teddy bear keychain!) The staff is cordial and smiley. The room and bathroom is immaculate and the shower EXCELLENT!! Great water pressure and easy to turn on and off to save water. There is only sink soap missing. I love the hotel is trying to be eco-friendly with plastic bottle and aluminium can recycling in the lobby (just wish they added paper too and plastic wasn’t just limited to bottles). But also love there are no mini shampoos or conditioners as that’s not eco-friendly but there is a lovely big container of shampoo-body wash. Wifi was decent for video and photo upload but not great for video calls on Zoom (for work). But excellent for workout apps like Peloton. I’m also super grateful the AC is not right above the bed like in most places. So it stays cool but not freezing in the room. Comfortable bed and ample pillows. Quiet too (room 301). Big curtains to block out the light. The location is about a 15 minute walk to the old centre and waterfront, and I greatly enjoyed my walk back and forth to each day. If you stay in the old town, you miss the great Chinese restaurant by the hotel and also TopSpot seafood buffet. I do wish they added a top sheet instead of just having a duvet. Would defo recommend this place!! Also the breakfast is a mix of Western and Malaysian options.

Very quiet while we were staying, which was great! The location is close to many cafes, restaurants, and tourist attractions. The only disappointment was that the rooftop lounge wasn't operational while we were visiting (though it was open for us to sit at if we'd wanted).

This hotel was eco conscious and the staff were friendly. The restaurant prepares nice food and beautiful fresh juices. No pool or gym. They have a book swap in the foyer. It is a bit of a walk to the to the river markets, but not too far. We made friends with some locals at the local bars around the hotel. The beer is much cheaper. The people in Kuching are all really friendly.

Okay

Not a bad hotel but the shower in my room only got Luke warm. Also I booked the orangutan sanctuary with them and if they are going to do “tours” they should inform me that the chances at this time of the year are 90% that you WILL NOT see anything. Once you get there before you buy your really cheap ticket inside the sanctuary informs you how bad the odds are but you’ve already paid 90 rings to get there and back so what’s 10 more. If I had known that I probably would not have gone to save my time and money for the Forrest where there are things you can see. Anyway, not a bad hotel, just not worth the money for me so just stayed one night and moved a couple of blocks down the road to another place much cheaper with the same amenities.

Disappointed with the room

Staffs were very friendly. My toilet is bigger than the room. The mattress was sinking and I could fee the springs. Breakfast was not exciting. I stayed there are reading the positive reviews but I was disappointed. Not suitable for a business traveller or family. Ideal for a travelling salesman, backpacker or those who wish to do a quickee. I guess those were paid reviews. Pure rubbish

Love the fact that the hotel endorses recyling! This deserves a thumbs up!! We were booked in from 16-19 Oct and it was a good stay. Room was a good size, toilet too. Breakfast daily had many varieties even for a small buffet area and they change some of the menus daily too we weren't bored at all. It was a hearty & delicious breakfast... I personally like the Mdm Tay's Sarawak Laksa that was available for breakfast daily :) The hotel too was well located, walking distance to Kuching Waterfront, some "heartland" malls, lots of great restaurants & cafes (a must try RJ Ayam Bakar which is 2mins walk & opens till 2am!) and easily accessible to almost anywhere in KCH. It is even a mere 20mins Grab drive to the airport. All in all, staffs were really friendly & helpful and that just makes our stay feels the best for our first trip to KCH. We wld recommend this stay!

Sehr gutes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis!

Die Bewertung ist stark beeinflusst von dem kostenlosen Upgrade. Normale Zimmer haben keinen Schrank, keine Kommode für Wäscheablage, keinen Stuhl und keinen Kühlschrank. Hotel hat zentrale Lage mit vielen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und bietet eigenen Shuttle-Service auch für Ausflüge. Frühstücksbuffet reichhaltig, nichts für Käse oder Wurstliebhaber! Kleiner Tipp für den Roomservices, auch unter den Betten sauber machen! Achtung: Hotel akzeptiert nur einheimische Währung zur Barzahlung. Rezeption sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit, schnell und flexibel!

Excellent service and super friendly staff

I really enjoyed my stay at The LimeTree Hotel! Serinah and Monica on reception couldn’t have been more helpful! I arrived at the hotel at 9am and Serinah very kindly let me check in early as the room was available. I really appreciated it as I’d been travelling since 3am! The breakfast was great with lots of choice! I love the lime theme of the hotel too! The owners have a lime plantation so there are lots of nice little touches and everything smells so fresh in the room. I’d definitely stay at LimeTree again!
