Hyatt Centric Kota Kinabalu has an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre, a restaurant and bar in Kota Kinabalu. This 5-star hotel offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The property is allergy-free and is set 1.1 km from Filipino Market Sabah. 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.
