Location Highlights

Raia Hotel Kota Kinabalu is in the Central Business District. It is a 5-minute drive from Sabah State Mosque and All Saint's Cathedral and 10 km from Kota Kinabalu International. You'll be 9 minutes from Imago Shopping Mall and a 3-minute drive from Sutera Harbour. The hotel is within close proximity of the Museum of Islamic Civilisation. Nearby landmarks include Double Six Monument (1.5 km), Borneo Trading Post (1.5 km), and Sabah Art Gallery (2 km).

Area Attractions

TH Hotel-Kota Kinabalu is near nature and wildlife-related activities. Tunku Abdul Rahman Park and Anjung Samudera are area attractions. Sedco Square is another point of interest. Sutera Harbour and Kota Kinabalu Waterfront are worth checking out.

“What struck me most is its dual appeal: proximity to the business district with a sense of calm away from the city's frenzy. The emphasis on Halal dining throughout, coupled with extensive conference facilities, makes it a practical choice for both business and family trips. A restful night is likely, though the hotel should ensure impeccable cleanliness of its bedding.”
