Hotele Hot Springs w: Sabah, Malaysia

This is our first visit to Ranau. Booked the room based on the high reviews and am really happy with the decision. The location was far end but the driving was nice because you could see a lot of greenery along the way. No nearby restaurants but the hotel does have a restaurant where you can dine in or have room service. Breakfast was included. Should not miss taking breakfast as you can really enjoy nature early in the morning. However, a ticket to the park was not included. You can purchase it at the gate at the entrance and it was easy. It is nice to have a little hike in the morning after breakfast. If you are lucky, you get to see the Raflesia flower. We are not lucky 😌 maybe next time. Overall the experience was fantastic. On top of it, the reception staff and all other staff were all friendly upon checking in, checking out, and throughout our stay. The room was spacious for our family of four. Cleanliness is remarkable. Highly recommended!

Clean room, bedsheets and towels which is the main thing. House seems to be a bit older (the one closest to the pool) and has a funny ”old” smell. But overall good stay, it's cosy, cottage like place. Animals running over roof at night, feels like being on a camping trip almost, pretty nice. Smiling owner, Euro/American style breakfast which we would appreciate local one more but I understand can't make everyone happy. We had our own car so not sure about transfers, accessibility etc.
