Hotels near Napalus Rafflesia Garden, Ranau

Unbelievable full view of Mount Kinabalu from the balcony. No airconditioner, no fan but these are not needed as the temperature gets freezing cold at night. Do bring extra sweaters/blankets especially during rainy season. Water heater for drinks was a bit dusty but it doesnt bother me much. Bathroom was clean. Hot shower is available but i think the coldness from the surroundings overpowers the warm water coming out of the shower. Best time to shower is probably around 9.30-10am as the sun will be all up so that the hot shower wont get re-cool by the surrounding temperature. Overall, staying here is still totally worth it. I would come back again.

The room is spacious and can accommodate up to 10 people. If you're going to hike Maragang Hill, this is one of the best place to stay.

Pros 1. Spectacular View 2. Friendly receptionist. They also serve quick when you make a call 3.Clean bathroom and sheet Cons: 1. Some facilities at room not work such as lamp 2.The road to come this resort is very challenging the road is very very damage. Need to make sure that your car can handle it. Pick a right car. 3. Shower heater not so hot when you use it more than 15 minutes Overall my family and I are enjoy staying in this resort for 3 days 2 night. The weather at night is so cold and my parents room have a nicest view ever, the mount kinabalu when you open your eyes. It is a great experiance. If you are looking for a view didnt mind with all the cons above this resort might suitable for you. But if you would like perfect facilities room and etc didnt mind with view I advice totake another hotel for stay.

The road to the location is quite high, luckily we use 4wd drive to get there. Still its reachable and easy to locate via waze. I saw the bad review about the cleanliness (i had second thought at first too but i booked it for the cheap price and my dad wanted to try a different place everytime we go to kundasang😂) but some improvements can be see. The room is quite comfortable and the toilet is clean with fuctioning heater. Still lacking in some amenities, 5 people room but only two towels were provided. The tv is under maintainence during our stay. We didnt use the wifi provided cause we bring our own, the coverage for dg and celcom is quite good. There is balcony in our room but my mom complain about the smoke that travel from other room as the balcony is not fully seperated. The view of Mout Kinabalu is right in front of our room BUT there is ongoing construction at front which will block the view in the future. However there is one balcony outside the building that can see the panorama of the Mount Kinabalu and Kundasang town. Definitely an A+ for the view. We brought our own food as we always do during our trip and I would recommend to bring your own as the place is quite far from town and the food there (i saw the food menu at reception) is quite pricey. Still it is a good experience and i would recommend other to stay there. I attached some photos of the view that can be seen from there

We revisited the property because of the location just a week apart. First time the price was rm100, then a week after that rm135 including breakfast. They do not have option to exclude the breakfast. When I inquired about the breakfast, the front desk showed me their menu with wide range of breakfast but the next morning, we were given a coupon to tick one of 5 choices, 2 of which were not available. Choices were bad, food was bad, all in all - rm35 breakfast for 2 was not worth it. You could find a better tasting options in the town which is just a walking distance. They will ask for deposit. First time, the deposit was rm50, then they increased it to rm100 a week later. So, I am not sure how long this review will stand correct when it comes to the amount of deposit they actually required. Telephone was not working (which they change for us), TV was not working (which they couldn't do much because they haven't applied for Astro), room slightly dusty, flooring makes sound when you walk, so you might need to tiptoe if someone is sleeping, the garden table at the balcony could be hazardous simply because they failed to adhere to the law of physics, and when you thought it couldn't go worse, the next day we had a very noisy guests with kids running and shouting as early as 6am in the morning. Apart of the location, I don't think I would rate this property as good value for the money.

So far this place vice but more better pls install TV or TV anroid WiFi... Tq

We stayed here for a couple of nights and it is in a very quiet location with good views of the surrounding areas. It's a bit out of the way so might suit people who have their own transport although they do offer a shuttle service. In fact they were amazing with this, The manager dropped us off at Kinabalu Park and someone collected us later. They also took us into town a couple of times and picked us up. There is a kitchen area to store and prepare your own food but there is no restaurant or provided breakfast. The rooms were comfortable enough and I think it would be an amazing place for the meditation retreats once they start up again. Free Wi-Fi available all over. I'm giving this 4 stars mainly because of the wonderful helpful staff who couldn't do enough for us.

You can see the mountain from the room balcony. Will surely come back to enjoy that view again. Room was clean. The bathroom is outside (next to the balcony), so at night when you want to bath, bugs and moths will be everywhere.

perfectly situation for mountain climb, the room shabby and i dont mean shabby chic. the receptionist was very nice but there was no record of our booking on their computer...despite receiving emails from the hotel and the booking being on my booking.com account-luckily they had rooms available. you could tell you had reached some altitude as when i took my packet of crisps out of my bag they had blown up-so idea place for spending time acclimatizing, although it didnt stop my nausea. the breakfast was very poor, no eggs as the kitchen was closed! but they still managed to produce noddles and rice. so we just had toast and cereals. there is a kettle in the room but you have to buy/supply your own tea/coffee ect. it is not far from the mountain start point so very handy. we did manage to get quite a good nights sleep, there was also a tiny balcony which had a lovely view. there were a few steps to walk down to get to room and we were told what room we had but would been nice to have been shown which one as i struggled to find it and had to keep asking, and all they did was point.

We drove to Mount Kinabalu for 2 nights stay at the 1) Peak Lodge 1 & 2 , 2) Summit Lodge & 3) Garden Lodge. The accomodations are comfortable, niece ambience with fire place ,has slow or no wifi connection at all. Some improvement needed in Housekeeping cleaning. Shower room in Summit Lodge flooding as the floor trap was filled with dirt & hair. Shower room wall tiles are dirty. Awesome view of the Mount Kinabalu from our Lodges. Breakfast is at Liwagu Restaurant , it serves Asian Buffet. Dinner is Ala-Carte , food and service are good. For activities , around the Park , we make visit to the Botanical Garden and Poring Hot Spring and make a further drive down to Desa Dairy Farm at Kundasang. All in all it was a relaxing stay !!
