The term \"beautiful things come in small packages\" best describes this property. The stardard is on par with any other boutique hotel around. The place is cosy and homely.

I initially booked a queen bed with no window but the owner was so generous to upgrade me to king bed with window overlooking lush greenery. The room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. I had the best sleep in a month. The hot shower was pleasant and all toiletries provided for. If anything need to be added is a bidet tap.

The communal area has a fridge, hot & cold water dispenser, microwave, toaster and all other necessities. All you need is your own bread, cereal and milk, you're good to go.

The location couldn't be more perfect, centralized but away from the busy streets. There's a fruit market downstairs and a supermarket at the corner. I particularly like the supermarket. They sell high quality bread and everything else you need for breakfast. They even have a good selection of beer and wine (if you're upto booze).

If malls is your thing, Suria Mall is only about 3 minutes walk away. All other attractions such as Signal Hill Observatory, Jesselton Point Ferry Terminal, Harbour Walk, Central Market, Handicraft Centre and Waterfront Esplanade are all in the vicinity.

If you're looking for a comfortable yet affordable place to stay in KK, I highly recommend eden54. I would definitely stay here again on my next visit.

Thank you Mdm Ling Ling for your wonderful hospitality.

I stayed here only for a few hours after climbing down from Mount Kinabalu and before an early morning flight the next day. The location is near to a fancy new shopping mall, but a little further from the rest of the town. The rooms are functional, if a bit dated. The cupboard really showed its age for example. Although I requested a non-smoking room, the room I was in smelled faintly of smoke. The hot water was also a little lacking. Oddly enough, the front door is locked later at night and the receptionist never mentioned that to me. This led to some inconvenience when I got back to the hotel just before midnight and spent five minutes trying to figure out how to get the door open before the receptionist buzzed me in. Overall, it was perfectly adequate for a short stay and a bed to crash, but I'm not sure about a longer stay.

Hotel Eden54 is a nice little family-run hotel in a great central location in KK. The staff is really friendly and helpful, and it's clear they put a lot of love into their business. The price is great, and it had everything I needed for a quick stay. The room and building were pleasant and comfortable, though there were some aspects that were a little worn (like chipped paint). And there was construction outside the window, that fortunately ended before I needed to sleep. I'd stay here again. I really liked the people, location and price.

Wouldn't stay there again.

This is a very central location for staying in Kota Kinabalu. The shops, restaurants, and pier for tours are right nearby. However, the hotel could do with some maintenance and the fixtures and fittings were not all up to the standard required. For example, the shower head came away from the hose when the water was turned on and the hotel had termites. Although the hotel is only on one level, it is up one floor from the road and there is no choice but the stairs.

The hotel reception is located on the second floor, so there will be a flight of stairs to climb. However, assistance for luggage can be requested through a bell on the ground floor.

Just next to the hotel is a mini mart, and a few shops away is another supermarket. The Suria Sabah shopping centre is just 3-5 mins walk away too.

All in all, a decent hotel to stay in for a few nights at the price we paid.

There are also several great restaurants both to the left and the right of the hotel within 2 blocks. The staff was very friendly and helpful and provided a local map and recommendations. The only thing was I couldn’t find an elevator so I needed to carry our large bag up to the 2nd floor.

Perfect location, Comfortable bed, great price!

Perfect location for all of the activities that Kota Kinabalu has to offer, including access to restaurants, shops, department stores and all of the tourist agencies that can arrange for trips to the islands or to Mt. Kinabalu. Uber from the airport costs around 12RM, and then pretty much you can walk around to all of the fun stuff.
The room is spacious and clean and comfortable with a few small items to watch out for. The bed was on the short side for someone who is 172cm+. There were a few ants around but not really bothersome. The air conditioning and fan were perfect for the hot weather and sometimes almost too cold but still a pleasant escape from the heat outside.
The challenges we had were - WiFi was almost unusable in how slow it was. We ended up using our 4G connection even in the room as it was much faster.
The water heater is quite small and so if you are used to hot showers, that might be a problem. The water never got hot enough at adequate pressure. Again given how hot Kota Kinabalu is usually, this may or may not be a problem for you.
