Very bad experience. Dirty and smelly rooms.

Merdeka was in a good location for the touristy spots. However, the staff didn’t really give the feel that they were happy to have us there. They did their job, but there weren’t a lot of smiles or helpful gestures of any kind. Beautiful lobby, but the rest of the building was very dated and in rough shape…great need of a makeover. Price was good, but in this case you kind of got what you paid for. The hotel restaurant and massage parlor were not bad. Over-all I had a rather “meh” feeling, and would most likely opt for a different place if we come to Kuching again (which we will most likely do).

The staff were great however the hotel itself is dated and all furnishing are showing signs of wear and tear. The second elevator giving access to my room 614 was out of order for my 7 days stay.

Though the location was great the apartment suite room condition was in poor maintenance: the kitchen had minuscule appliances/serve-ware/cutleries; broken kitchen dish drying rack; water/leak-stain in the carpets in living room and dining room (one of the living room stain was even still wet when we arrived); in the main master bedroom there's a mold-stained ceiling leak above the sink; leaky water taps; mold/blacken corking in all the bathrooms/sinks; some non-working light bulbs etc. Generally not maintained.

The hotel has seen glorious days but today it is a sad reminder of how not to run an establishment. Everything need a complete redo, though the quality of the finishing is good, like marble masonry. And solid furniture. Carpets, curtains, fixtures and aircon are all outdated and breaking down. Hope they can renovate this place soon.

Lovely staff and lobby and great location. Unfortunately the hotel rooms are in dire need of an update . Ours had a very old , musty smell also . Unfortunately would not return because of the aged , stained rooms .

Aircon vent has a thick layer of dust and air of room smells musty. Room cleanliness in that sense leaves much to be desired

As noted by others , unfortunately , a once, very majestic hotel ( is only 25yo ) is now very dated and in need of major refit. However , the rooms are large ,clean and the bed very comfortable ( if you like a firm bed ). Nothing else compatible for the location and price

There was a leak from the roof. Water was dropping every other second. I was only there to stay one night. I chose not to use the wardrobe as I do not want me or my belongings to get wet.

not good. couldn't access the wifi. cleanliness so bad.toilet light and the light under the table were not functioning. Car park very dark. No proper sign to show the "in" and "out" of the car park. The furniture and equipment in the room are very old. Window curtains were very dirty and not working. Paid more for what is expected. not worthwhile. will never consider to stay at this hotel again.

The hotel is spacious with great bones. The view was great and the pool facility nice. But there were moldy shower curtains and moldy spots in the carpet. They clearly have a leak somewhere and just don't fix it. The fridge didn't work and the wifi didn't work. The wifi was very frustrating because we expected to be able to work remotely from the rooms one of the days, but we couldn't even get our phones connected, let alone our computer. Wifi does work in the lobby. The location is perfect, just blocks from the waterfront, with the free museum right next door. For a 3 bedroom, for this price and location, it's fine, just don't count on the wifi, and expect mold. It's too bad because it clearly has the potential for a spectacular hotel.

Waiting for almost 1 hour to check in. We came at 3.30pm but staff at reception said the room still not ready. There also about 5-6 family also waiting for their room. Only able to check in after 1 hour waited.In the room there should be 3 queen bed, but there was only 1 queen and 3 single bed. Room also not really well prepared such as no garbage plastic in the toilet and no door mat given.

The location is perfect, view overlooking waterfront is excellent. Overall it is neat and well-maintained except the bathroom floor in master bathroom doesnt drain well. The outside toilet is noisy and needs looking into. It needs another lift cos sometimes it is too crowded and had to wait long.
