Hotel Eden54 — Hotel in Borneo

With only 24 Hours in KK, Eden 54 Boutique Hotel provided not only a safe & clean place to stay but it was also centrally located, surrounded by convenience for only rm138. Service was great too. Ms Ling Ling is available to assist.

Eden 54 is next to Tong Hing Supermarket. Beside the entrance of Eden54 is a shop that sells CUT local fruit, whole fruit & fruit juice. Suria Mall is a 3 min walk round the corner. HSBC Bank, 2 min walk. Gayá St, depends where you want to reach - if it’s the tail end of Gayá St then 5 mins. If it’s the beginning end of Gayá St then 10mins.

I draw my curtains & I see the back wall of Hyatt KK Centric Hotel.

I didn’t rent a car as time was limited. But if you do, you have to Street Park (Paid). Probably rm1-2 an hour. During peak hours, you’d have to exercise patience but you can always find alternatives.

How did I get from KKIA to Eden 54? Grab Cars costed rm12 (1.53pm).

I went Sunset Stand Up Paddle (SUP) at Tanjung Aru by Borneo Paddle Monkeys. Grab Cars costed rm9 (3.50pm) & return was rm21 (6.38pm & raining).

Before my flight, I was at Kokol Hillside for the best view in town.

I have to say that the room that I stayed at was a bit dated but for the $, location, cleanliness, I’ll stay here again.

Give a thumbs up, if this post resonates...

One of the best hotel I'd ever stayed during all my holidays trip. Great hospitality, friendly and helpful staffs and owner.

This hotel gives you the homely vibes, located strategically, you can find plenty of eateries around. If you need more information about this beautiful city, tourism board is also just around the corner.

This 2star hotel is so conveniently close to Suria Sabah Mall, Wisma Merdeka Mall and the famous flea market Gaya Street.

Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal, the main gateway to Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park (Islands) is only a 6mins walking distance from this place.

This hotel my friends is surely a gem, situated right in the middle of Kota Kinabalu town, it provides comfy beddings, good water pressure, reasonable room rates and strong internet access.

Awarded a winner continuously by Tripadvisor for many consecutive years, (2012 - 2019), this basic hotel also receives good reviews from Agoda.

This hotel are known for their awesome hospitality. I would give you a rating of more than 5...

The staff and owner are friendly and helpful. This hotel located within walking distance to Gaya Street, Suria Sabah, Jesselton jetty, Little Italy and surrounded with many food choices. You could get your daily items from the premium grocery Tong Hing or the affordable fruit shop on the right. It is also very near to Lorong Dewan where you could spot backpackers, Mexican food and unique cafes there too.

Hotel is 2 star with affordable pricing. Room is moderate size and view isn't great as facing the back of street. To be honest the facility is outdated and may need overhaul, perhaps the pandemic hits the business really hard and they might have to take time for recovery & upgrade.

Do support local business and hope Eden54 will continue do well.

Overall, the staff and owner are really good, it gives the extra star...
