Telang Usan Hotel

The hotel is nicely situated & easily to get a grab to go around with a fair price. The staff is friendly. Hotel room is clean & comfortable for stay. Especially loved the food served by the restaurant (The Lamin). Full of native choices of food such as ayam pansuh, umai ikan, bunga kantan kerabu, Midin,cangkuk manis, ayam goreng rempah, laksa Sarawak and mee goreng. The teh tarik also nice. Not too sweet but full of flavour. Get to taste local food in hotel with fair price.
The decorations at the reception area gives me a feel of walking into a mini museum.
Will come again during my next trip

Telang Usan is the only hotel I will stay when I visit Kuching, it was a hotel full with Iban culture. The restaurant “Lamin” is a must try when visit Kuching, I love traditional food service here like Umai from Melanau, ayam pansoh from Dayak & many more. The hotel displays all the Orang Ulu warriors costumes like Tapong Se and others. They also have a group of friendly staff at Front Office, Houskeeping and restaurant.

とても静かで落ち着いたホテルでした。チェックインの時間よりも早く着きましたが、早めに部屋に入れてくれました。また泊まりに行きます。

We stayed here on and off for about 2 weeks on a World Challenge Trip. It is everything you could want in a budget hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. They even managed to help us negotiate group discounts on various excursions. We also participated in a cooking class run at the hotel which was a definite highlight. Rooms were air conditioned and cleaned daily and you were provided with fresh drinking water every day. The hotel was well located with many local restaurants within a five minute walk and the riverfront roughly a ten minute walk away.

The hotel is located in the city centre, which makes it very accessible to all the attractions in town.

The breakfast is ok, but the other food you can order off the menu at the Lamin is incredible and has a really authentic taste of Sarawakian food.

The rooms have just been renovated so they're all very clean and modern looking. There is also Netflix so you won't be bored if you decide to stay inside for the day.

The staff here are lovely: welcoming and helpful. The hotel is about 15 mins walk from the waterfront, and there are lots of eating places en route.
The decor and furniture in the rooms is dated, but I think this is appropriately reflected in the price. Each floor has a stuffed bookcase with a wide range of books which guests can borrow.
I experienced both a buffet breakfast and an individual one during my stay. The individually-prepared breakfast was excellent, with lots of choice; the buffet was pretty standard. I especially recommend a papaya granola smoothie!

This hotel is an outstanding value about 15 minutes walk to the site son the center of the city.

Hôtel typique dans un cadre verdoyant. En cours de rénovation. Bon petit déjeuner.
La salle de bain est correct avec eau chaude.
Grande chambre au calme.

Excellent hotel and restaurant staff. All were very courteous, and receptive to our needs. Food was excellent and delicious. We really admired the historical and authentic indigenous artifacts and decor found in the lobby, cafeteria and on the grounds. The Wi-Fi was good but weak in some areas.

The rooms were clean but dated. However the hotel is undergoing a major renovation beginning with the first floor.

Vi bodde der i 12 døgn. Senga var dårlig, air con var et mysterium. Renholdet var fraværende. Renholder kom og vi ba dem kom senere så kom de ikke senere. Reholdet var elendig. Tror ikke gulv ble vasket den tiden vi bodde der. Dette er tydeligvis noe som alle hoteller i Malaysia plages med. Restauranten var grei god mat. De ansatte burde muligens ha hatt seg et engelskkurs

I stayed for 2 weeks on the 2nd floor of the hotel (the 1st floor is currently being renovated...it looks wonderful) and was very satisfied with the service and amenities. I ate in the Lamin restaurant on the premises and found the food here excellent. They serve many traditional Sarawak dishes plus western cuisine also. Prices are very reasonable. I recommend the Umai Ikan (sashimi fish, snapper or dory both are good) with the Pisang Goreng (banana fritters with condensed milk and cheese) for dessert.

Turn left at the hotel entrance then left again and you will see the Sharing and Lepau restaurants. If you turn right at the Sharing you will see 2 bright pink columns. This is the CT2 hotel. There is a 24hr coin laundry (change available at the CT2, MYR5 per load) and a mini mart shop there.

Elevator access to upper floors and private bathrooms. Air-conditioning worked great. Only a 10 min walk to the Waterfront

As usual, it's always like returning home. Almost all the staff at Telang Usan are familiar faces. We got the room facing the lovely green garden/forested area upon request. Love it! Will definitely be back.

Staff & service: Generally excellent. (1) Melanie & Nicky went the extra mile to arrange for a FOC recce trip to Bengoh. My daughter & I had a fantastic day. (2) On our departure day, the staff on duty were quick to remediate the missed breakfast order done the day before by getting the kitchen staff to prepare our breakfast on time, although it wasn't the menu which we originally pre ordered. Cleanliness: Generally, a clean hotel. However, the housekeeping team could ensure that they clean/wipe the room's bathroom-toilet with regard to the sink, counter, shower cubicle & floor on a daily/regular basis during the guest's stay.

Das Hotel ist sehr angenehm, große Zimmer, gutes lokales Frühstück, sehr schöne Artefakte und Bilder von lokalen Künstlern. Das Personal ist besonders freundlich und immer hilfsbereit, ich habe mich einfach rundherum wohl gefühlt. Gleich nebenan ist ein wunderbares Restaurant mit indigener Küche und ins Zentrum kann man zu Fuß laufen 20 min oder ein Grab Taxi nehmen. Perfekt!

Avoid if you have respiratory problems. No ventilation damp and musky mould old smell throughout hotel. Hotel needs major renovation. Very old. Not value for money at all. Staff are very polite and friendly they do try and help but unfortunately hotel is in bad condition

As always, excellent! Very personalized service. Feels like home. Tranquil environment to rest, chill & relax completely. Stayed in Room 313 with mom. Love the green view. Even better than my last room.

Close to nature. Very friendly & helpful staff; Melanie is always so cheery, prompt & attentive. Love the lady boss, Audrey too. Always feel so welcomed. Surrounded by eateries such as See Good Restaurant & Lepau. The latter serves delicious & authentic Dayak cuisine. Lamin, the hotel's own restaurant serves authentic & delicious food with fresh ingredients. Love their Sarawak Laksa which is a must try. Although a bit dated, this hotel is way better than Pullman, Hilton & Majestic in terms of friendliness of its hotel staff, food, timely housekeeping, quiet, parking space and unique display of indigenous arts, craft & artefacts, etc.

Room was OK. Functional but a bit dirty. There were tiny bugs in the bathroom. They didn't really bother me. I don't think they bite. But it still lends an impression of being dirty. VERY dated for sure. Location was OK. A bit out of the way but not too far from the center of town. Kuching is very small and easily walkable. Staff were not the friendliest though. Nobody ever smiled. Breakfast was terrible too. There is very little selection and they never refill it. I kept notifying the staff that some of the items needed to be refilled, but maybe aside from the rice or congee, none of the other items would get refilled. And even then, it would take half an hour! After I sat down, I watched as other guests came in, noticed that there wasn't much of anything, and just went back with a piece of fruit. Utterly pathetic!

Parking provided. Restaurants are just nearby the hotel and you can walk. This hotel price is cheap and they also provide breakfast. Simple breakfast but to me is ok.

What a fabulous location and only a short walk too the waterfront. It's very peaceful, the food is fantastic and the staff are very friendly. My room had everything I needed, Air-Con, Ensuite with Hot shower, comfortable bed and daily room service. I couldn't be happier with the 3 months I spent here.
