The Marian Boutique Lodging House

The Marian Boutique Lodging House

8/10 Good
"Perfectly functional hotel. Spacious, clean room. Friendly staff in lobby and at restaurant. The room we booked had one bed in a loft, which we didn’t want to deal with, so they changed the room no problem! Only minor issues are that they could use a shelf in the bathroom, as there is no place to put toiletries. And only one (of three) beds is near an outlet/charger."

10/10 Excellent
"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Pullman Kuching. The staff were polite, friendly, and always ready to help. From the reception counter to the front entrance, the staff consistently greeted us with warm smiles, which made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. We also appreciated the room upgrade. The upgraded room was spacious, comfortable, and made our stay even more enjoyable. The only minor drawback was that some noise from the ongoing renovation works could occasionally be heard. Overall, we had a very pleasant and memorable stay at Pullman Kuching, and we truly appreciated the warm hospitality shown by the staff."
