"A great place to stay. Right by the waterfront and close to all the local shops and restaurants. Neat experience to stay in a heritage building in the heart of Kuching. Was a bit loud but the close proximity to the sites definitely makes up for it.
Getting to the parking was a bit tricky but eventually you’ll find it.
Will definitely recommend this hotel again! "

"The resort is dated but it does correspond to the price bracket. It is more chalet than hotel. Staff in the restaurant were great. The fried rice is excellent. The beach is clean and we had starfish sightings."

Just one downside, there’s a Karaoke/pub at level 2 so some rooms got a free (off-key) lullabies from 10am to 2am but hey, I rather that than other noises. But it’s funny when this became a topic of conversations with other tourists staying at Citadine! "
