The room was immaculate a great size. The staff were very friendly and greeted me every time I came in.
The location was fantastic, close to the riverfront and near to countless restaurants.

Fantastic hotel, great location. Plenty of towels, hot shower, cold A/C. Convenient for pick up/drop off via Grab. Walking distance to many eateries and landmarks. Was in town for a wedding with the reception at the Sheraton and opted to stay here based on location and price and I believe we got better value. The on-site breakfast was convenient for one of our busier days but otherwise not great value (quality v cost v available street options). Had a great chat with a gentleman in the elevator who turned out to be the owner - just super friendly and wanted to know how we were enjoying our time in town. Would stay here again next we are in town.

It's a very good hotel. It was a very convenient location as it was close to the waterfront and there were many restaurants and shops.
The front desk of the hotel was very helpful, and we were able to store our luggage during check-in and check-out.
I would like to stay at this hotel again next time.

An excellent hotel to stay with a reasonable price
The location is good. It's a 10-min walk to the water front. There are a lot of restaurants around the hotel. The staff in the hotel is amazing and makes you feel that you are welcomed. The room is pretty spacious and clean. I will definitely stay here again if I visit Kuching in future. Highly recommended.

Meritin hotel is in Kuching Chinatown area with lots of local eateries and pastry traditional shops nearby. The free 103 tourist bus is just 1 min walk from the hotel. A supermarket Everise just opposite the hotel. Room is clean and functional. Recommended.

My Yearly Trips to Kuching
This is not my first stay at Meritin, I am very happy with the rooms, cleaniness is excellent, air-condition is super cool, beds and pillows were very verycomfortable. Staff at the reception are very helpful and friendly.
The location is also convenient as it is situated along chinatown and food is abundant along both sides of the street.
I will definitely come back here to stay for my yearly trips to Kuching.

Staff were very friendly and helpful.
My room was very comfortable, particularly liked the bathroom with the walk in shower, unlike some hotels that have the shower in the bath. Being an older person a walk in shower is much safer.
As well, breakfast was included in the room price which is very helpful when travelling.
Thank you Meritin Hotel for a pleasant comfortable stay.

It seemed like a newer hotel. The room was comfortable and fairly quiet. Staff were average, and despite my request for an early check-in due to completing 24 hours of traveling, they didn't have my room ready any earlier than 3pm.
