The staff was very nice and welcoming. The rooms were basic, but comfortable. There was entertainment going on outside and it sounded like the person singing was in our room. The structure didn't block outside nose very well.

The staff were all nice and kind, very professional. The hotel was ok, lots of movie memorabilia. The restaurant next to the hotel serves good food. Area around the property is not pleasing, it's dirty and smells. The city is great, with lots of stores around. They should keep it cleaner, no littering. My room was small but overlooking the sea. Nice view from my room.

Good accommodation in Sandakan covering all necessities. Sandakan doesn’t have a lot to offer tourists other than being a stopping off hub but this hotel caters well to the needs of travellers and has everything you need for a comfortable stay

Ein ausserordentlicher Aufenthalt
Das Elopura Hotel (Elopura = alter Name von Sandakan) war für uns ein ausserordentlich schönes Erlebnis! Das Hotel - gefüllt mit Sammelstücken aus der Filmwelt und Musik - hat einen besonderen Charme. Die Lage ist toll, gleich am Hafen. Besonders zu erwähne sind die superfreundlichen Mitarbeitenden! Zudem zaubert das zugehörige Restaurant Gerichte der Extraklasse aus der Küche! Besonders erwähnen möchten wir Jeff Andy von der Rezeption - super sympathisch und total hilfsbereit, Dani den F & B-Manager, der uns ganz toll betreut hat. Zudem hatten wir ein ganz flottes Zimmermädchen, dass uns immer mit einem Lächeln begegnet ist. Der Koch Aidil ging auch auf spezielle Wünsche ein! Hier fühlt man sich als Gast wirklich als König!
