Megah D’Aru Hotel 30 Aug – 2 Sep 2011

Megah D’Aru Hotel was booked by Daddy on the internet, before we came to Kota Kinabalu. It is located in the heart of Tanjung Aru Township, is strategically located a mere 5-minutes drive south of Kota Kinabalu City centre and north of the Kota Kinabalu International Airport.

The hotel is built and designed in such a way that the interplay of vibrant colours with soft lights produces an ambience that teases our sense of space at the lobby. Colours and lightings are carefully chosen to create a warmth and harmonious ambience that makes each patron of the hotel felt welcome and at ease. That was the feelings once we entered the hotel.

Our room are with window overlooking vibrant Tanjung Aru commercial centre and communal nearby residents with the deep blue colour of the South China Sea and majestic Mount Kinabalu as backdrops. The first thing the children did once they came in the room were jumping on the bed! I guess this is typical what the children will do, when they go to the hotel room.

Our room are equipped with individual air-conditioning unit with remote control, hot and cold water, satellite channels, 21-inch TV with remote control, IDD/STD telephone, en suite bathroom, toilet amenities, wardrobe with hangers, complimentary coffee & tea making facilities, electric mini kettle, Wi-Fi Internet Connection, safety locks and drinking water.

The soft, pastel colour scheme applied on rooms on each floor is carefully chosen to reflect the colourful lifestyle of friendly and courteous Sabahan.

It is supported by basic facilities such as PA system, white screen, flipchart, and white board.
