A recent addition to hotel accommodation in Kota Kinabalu is the 
Myne boutique hotel situated above the Warisan Square shopping mall, between Centre Point and Warisan Square. The Boutique style hotel has 72 concept room contained within seven stories and is an excellent place to stay for both business and pleasure.
It is hard to find Roast Suckling Pig in Kota Kinabalu, but the Pirates Rib Shack Diner in Asia City Kota Kinabalu is the place to go on Sundays for lunch. for direction go to http://piratesribshackdiner.piratesofborneo.com/location.html
Pirates of Borneo otherwise known as the pirates bar has a host of good value food available from Satay and Home made Burgers to Steaks and Ribs, together with local dishes. washed down with cold beer or wine.
Kota Kinabalu waterfront has long been recognised as the place to go and watch the sunsets and have a drink. However in recent months with the commencement of redevelopment, something seems to have affected the sewage problem with the result of unpleasant smells permeating the area.
Prices have always been high on the waterfront but the canny traveller can find more pleasant surrounding in the Beach Street Area and Asia City.
Beach Street despite its name is a few blocks away from the waterfront due to extensive land reclamation when KK was rebuilt following the WW 2.
Many people are surprised at the high prices for alcohol but bargain can still be found at places such as the Pirates Rib shack Diner where some of the best ribs in town are available, together with all day breakfasts, Chinese and local food from associated outlets
