Great location; right at the centre and by the seaside. I was checking in at 5pm but the room wasnt ready. They were kind enough to upgrade and add complementary breakfast. Its not about the freebies but going above and beyond to show you care.

I stayed at the Sheraton from 21–22 January and had a wonderful experience. Guests are welcomed with drinks upon check-in, which was a lovely touch. The hotel’s location is very strategic, offering easy access to everything I needed. The sunset at Skybar was stunning to watch!!! The room is clean and spacious with excellent city views and modern decor. A special shoutout to the reception staff, who were humble, friendly and genuinely helpful. They even went the extra mile to assist me with activating my Marriott membership, which I truly appreciated. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my stay and would absolutely choose to stay here again!

Excellent location within walking distance to eateries, malls and the jetty for island-hopping. Staff were exceptionally warm and hospitable - 5 stars to them! The pool was a great place to unwind on a humid afternoon. The view from the café was just perfect, overlooking the sea. Would definitely return the next time I'm in KK.

Newest 5 star hotel in Kuching. Stayed here during New Year's Eve and purposely chose the room with the view of the river for hopes of catching the midnight fireworks. Well, you could see them but it's a bit obstructed by other buildings, due to the location of the Sheraton. Other than that, it is a fancy new place. Staff were very friendly and did their best to be attentive.

The room is really great! Newly refurbished with huge TV and great selection of movies, love it! And the best is the beds and pillows probably topped the 5 star hotels! Super comfy after a long day. Breakfast was good too! Location is the best on the riverfront.
