The Lime Tree hotel is located just a 5 minute walk from the riverfront.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, with a rain shower in the bathroom. The staff is very efficient, but helpful and friendly. You are offered a welcome drink in the Rooftop Lounge, which offers a nice view of the city.

Nice variety of good tasting food for breakfast, with efficient staff making sure everything is available.

In short, this is a very well run hotel that offers great value for money, we would certainly stay here again!

If you arent in the market for the Hilton or Pullman I would reccomend the Limetree hotel. The service was strong with the only issue there being no one at the door to help bring in the bags (something thats been commented on before) Otherwise the hotel was safe and clean with a relaxing decor. The free wifi also places the hotel ahead of the Hilton where I was charged 25 ringit for an hours use. If you arent in need of spa and gym I would say save your pennies and go to the Limetree Hotel based on its great service and value for money.
The hotel manager in particular knows how to run a hotel!

First off, congrats to Julie, Serinah and all the staff at LimeTree for the double award. I've been meaning to put down my review for a long time so this looks to be a good time to finally do it.

I travel often to Kuching for work and have settled on the LimeTree Hotel as THE place to stay, factoring both my budget and the niceness of the hotel. I'll start with my gripes though - the Superior and Deluxe rooms are smaller and less well-equipped compared to standard hotel rooms (no wardrobe, no mini bar, no safety deposit box). Noise insulation in the Superior room is pretty poor.

Furthermore... actually there is no "furthermore". My gripes end here.

My favourite thing about this place is how clean it is. As a traveller, I know how cleanliness just about tops the list of requirements people look for in a place to stay. Not only is it clean, the generous use of lime-infused products such as room fragrance and toiletries give the whole place a fresh and zesty atmosphere. The bedding is also rather top notch in comfort. It all adds up to a place that is good for unwinding at the end of a long day, and great to wake up to as well.

Location is pretty good, right in town. Not exactly right smack in the middle of the tourist hotspots, but I'm sure most tourists wouldn't mind walking a little way out and absorb a little of the street life along the way. Also, plenty of bars line the route from the waterfront for those who get thirsty along the way back.

All in all, the LimeTree is a gem of a hotel. Not the cheapest around, but good value for the comfort and cleanliness it provides.

The hotel is nice. They have a shuttle to go to nearby places and airport on payment. The hotel provides umbrellas also.
It is located a bit far from the warerfront and you can not just walk down. The price also seemed to be higher.
