Hilton Kuching

“Still the best hotel in Kuching”

Although the hotel opened more than 30 years ago the property is well kept and renovations are ongoing. We stayed on the 5th floor in a river view room and were not inconvenienced by any construction noise. What sets this hotel apart is its friendly and well trained staff. From arrival to departure we were very well looked after. Harith, the bellman helped with our bags and offered assistance in case we needed anything else. Aaron welcomed us and checked us in. Betty in the River View Café and Helen in the Chinese Restaurant provided excellent and personalised service. The food was delicious in both places. Chef Hanif whipped up a quick take away meal one evening with a smile on his face. Room 510 was of very good size with a comfortable bed, fast WiFi, good water pressure and there was a fantastic view across the river to Fort Margarita and the DUN building. Unlike the other Internationally branded hotels in Kuching, The Kuching Hilton is a true representation of its brand. We will be back soon.

“The friendliest and most welcoming hotel I have ever stayed in”

We were supposed to stay here in summer 2020 to celebrate our 20th Wedding anniversary but sadly that trip was cancelled so I was delighted when my husband re-booked the trip for July 2024. We truely experienced the famous Malaysian hospitality at the Kuching Hilton from the moment we stepped out of the taxi and the doorman smiled at us and welcomed us to the Hilton as he opened the door for us. The reception staff were very welcoming and efficient, the restaurant staff and the Kof fee staff were all very friendly and welcoming and we loved having a nice cold drink after our excursions at the Koffee. Not sure which I liked best the blueberry milkshake or the iced peach tea. Our room had beautiful views over the river and I liked to sit and relax watching the sunset over the river in the evening. The hotel is in a superb location right on the riverfront and most of the main attractions are in walking distance so was a great base for exploring Kuching and beyond. We ate in the hotel on a couple of occasions and enjoyed the food. We ate in both the Riverview cafe and Toh Yuen Restaurant. The gym facilities are very nice but sadly the pool area was under renovation although we did get to use our swimsuits at Satang Island so they were not packed in vain. Considering how hot it was outside our hotel room was a very agreeable temperature for sleeping

“An overall pleasant stay, strategically located along the waterfront.”

The initial room assigned included an unwanted roommate in the form of a house lizard. Thankfully, the hotel was accommodating and assigned another room for me.

The initial room assigned included an unwanted roommate in the form of a house lizard. Thankfully, the hotel was accommodating and assigned another room for me. I am not sure whether it's a Kuching thing, but I could still hear the sounds of the house lizards from within the new room. Maybe they can look into this pest issue and rectify it, considering that this is a 5-star hotel in the city centre. The executive lounge may be improved too, as it was odd that breakfast isn't served there and only light bites were offered during their happy hour from 1700h - 1900hh. Other than these, my overall stay was good.
