Summary of reviewsUCSI Hotel Kuching generally garners positive reviews for its strategic location, especially for visitors attending events at the nearby convention center, owing to its close proximity and the convenience of walking to the venue. Guests also appreciate the serene views from their windows, further enhancing their experience. However, its distance from the town center and major attractions like the Kuching waterfront could be a downside for those looking to explore the city.

The breakfast buffet at the hotel offers a wide selection with a stunning view, which some guests appreciate. However, there are notable concerns regarding food temperature, variety and timely refilling of dishes, suggesting that the breakfast experience could use significant improvements.

Rooms at UCSI Hotel Kuching are praised for their cleanliness, spaciousness and comfort. Guests particularly enjoy the large rooms and bathrooms, comfortable beds and cozy ambiance of the lobby. The hotel also boasts a well-maintained swimming pool with great views. Some minor complaints include issues with tile work, occasional dirty bed linens and bathtub malfunctions, but these do not significantly detract from the overall positive feedback on the accommodations.

Cleanliness receives mixed reviews. While some guests commend the clean and spacious rooms, others report issues such as mildew smells, damp bedsheets, moldy grout and inadequately cleaned rooms and pool areas. These criticisms indicate a need for improved management and housekeeping standards.

Staff interactions also receive mixed feedback. Many guests find the staff friendly, helpful and accommodating, yet some have experienced disinterested and rude service, particularly from housekeeping and during the holiday season. Comments suggest that better training for student interns and employees might enhance the service quality.

The pool area is generally well-received with guests praising its beauty, peacefulness and the appealing infinity pool. The combination of the gym and pool is also appreciated. Minor drawbacks include the lack of loungers, chairs, towels and the early closure time at 7pm. Despite these small issues, the pool remains a largely positive feature of the hotel.

In summary, UCSI Hotel Kuching offers a convenient and comfortable stay, especially for those attending events at the nearby convention center.
