Family friendly Hotels in Bintulu

I stayed for 4 nights. The room is very big & spacious with all the basic amenities. I was given a room facing the sea. The bed was quite comfortable. Not much choice of tv channels. Since I was on official trip, I needed to be in contact with my office at all time during office hours but the WiFi connection was very bad. My telco network reception is quite poor too (of course not the hotel’s fault but was hoping the WiFi to be efficient). The foods are quite disappointing. The staff on the other hands were quite pleasant, friendly & helpful. Understood that it took them quite sometimes to make up the room because the hotel is 1 of the quarantine hotels so they missed out cleaning the room I was at the day before my check out. Plus point is the rooftop. You can watch the sunset from the rooftop

The check in process was easy, but a little too easy as in I was not shown what direction to head to get to my room, what floor it was on or even where the lifts were. Check in staff were pleasant enough though. I eventually found my room and it was ok. For an ”executive suite” it was way below par, but for a normal double room, it would have been fine. Decor was very dated but sufficient. I didn't particularly like the wooden flooring, but that's a personal choice and it was clean so hey ho. The biggest issue I had was I could only find one plug socket, which was nowhere near the bed and it appeared to be very loose in the wall. The 2 x USB sockets on it were handy, but only worked when they wanted too. The room phone did not work so I had to go to reception to order room service. On that subject, I ordered a pizza and it was delicious. I genuinely loved it and it was delivered piping hot. The downside was the guy who delivered demanded cash only (which was not stated anywhere in the room service menu) and I did not have enough cash on my so, much to a bemused look from him, I charged it to my room. The shower was over the bath which was a bit dated but was decent enough. The bath mat was a bit shabby looking so did not use it. The towels were clean and fresh. The bed was very comfortable and I did have a couple of good nights sleep. I did nit try the restaurant in the hotel so cannot comment. Overall, it is a decent hotel that could be doing with a facelift, but it was OK. It is located right next to a shopping mall which, being honest, is worth a miss, but that's for a different review.

The hotel has a beautiful view and a swimming pool. However, you can only look at the beach and not go there, as there are crocodiles and cobras nearby. The cleaning is average, which may be the case for all Malaysian hotels. They can't speak Chinese, and they are not very friendly to Chinese people. The price booked by locals is quite different from ours
