Guest Ratings & Reviews
I had an unforgettable stay at this amazing hotel in Kuching. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed, and I was pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful gesture of receiving a piece of birthday cake during my visit. The staff were exceptionally attentive and helpful, though at times a bit distant. The location is perfect, allowing easy access to various attractions and the beautiful riverfront. While the dining experience was delightful, I felt the breakfast could offer more variety. Overall, a fantastic experience with great value for money.
The Ranee Suites is an exceptional boutique hotel that offers a charming blend of luxury and comfort. It's perfectly situated along the Waterfront, allowing easy access to various attractions. Although the rooms were spacious and well-maintained, we faced some minor issues with air conditioning and damp bedding. The breakfast selection was diverse, combining both Western and Malaysian options, which was enjoyable. Overall, the experience was delightful despite a few hiccups.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was absolutely perfect for exploring the area, and I truly enjoyed the warm hospitality from the staff. The room had a charming character, but unfortunately, I encountered some issues with the service that dampened my stay. Overall, it's a nice spot, but there are areas that need attention for a better experience.
I had a lovely experience at The Ranee in Kuching! The location was perfect, right by the waterfront and close to several attractions. The rooms were spacious and uniquely decorated, but I did experience issues with the air conditioning that detracted from my overall comfort. The dining experience was creative and well-catered to my dietary needs, but it could have been a bit more consistent. Despite some hiccups, the charm of the hotel and the personalized service made my stay memorable.
We had a wonderful experience at this hotel, with a beautifully appointed room and exceptional service from the staff. The location was perfect for exploring, close to historical sites and vibrant areas. However, we did notice a couple of aspects that could be improved, such as the cleanliness of some common areas and noise issues from the surrounding environment. Overall, it was a delightful stay, and we would highly recommend it!
