Excellent

O had a great experience at the Brunei Hotel, staff welcomed promptly, assured me in every question and dropped and picked me around town to sightseeing the historic center, I cannot thank enough, also location is amazing to walk around everything is strategic, thanks for all the help
Very clean. Staff was excellent. Breakfast was good. Room was comfy but a bit small. Shuttle service was really nice to have. Location of hotel is great - super close to water village and many other attractions.
Only complaint is that it took at least 20 minutes to get hot water in the shower even though we were only on the second floor.
Overall a very good stay and I would recommend this hotel.
The Brunei is unpretentious. yet provides excellent service not inferior to 5* hotels. Visiting the Sultanate during Ramadan was interesting and challenging and the Brunei managed to accommodate foreign tourists with great service and sensitivity. We are totally satisfied with our stay at The Brunei.

Only plus point it’s location is centralised. Service provided was “so so”, would have stayed at the first hotel when I was in Brunei - Radisson !
Hotel charged guest $25 per person to airport !
Took Dart ( Uber version ) & it’s only @$12 !!!!
For breakfast , Ordered beverage at the counter as the coffee was not nice! And was charged , was only informed after we drank !
So end up need to pay @$10 !! But I reasons out / negotiate with hotel staff that the last day we will check out early thus unable to have breakfast at the hotel eventhough payment so why not waive the $10!!! But NO !! They didn’t!
It’s not abt the payment it’s the small thing hotel can provide / give to guest so that we feel welcome , appreciated ! I have stayed in Swiss , Hamburg & Frankfurt hotel with no problem . Service was tip top and they went an extra mile for guest !
Anyway another observation,we witness a maintenance was being carried out but the door was open wide!!! to a corridor that outsiders can enter & can go straight up to guest rooms ! OMG !!! that’s it ….not returning to this hotel!!
This hotel is really nice. The staff are so friendly and helpful. I visited during Ramadan and they still managed to accommodate me eating meals during daylight hours. The room was very quiet and comfortable.
I liked the fast internet connection, the hospitality provided by the staffs, the location of our room, the complimentary water dispenser on our floor, the quick elevator and auto hand sanitizer dispenser next to it (on the ground floor), the in-room entertainment and the toilet with hose. The hotel also managed to reserve a parking slot for us as requested.
I disliked the traces of hair on the bedsheet and the lack of amenities. If it is a room for two or three adults, it is sensical for the hotel to provide the amenities accordingly such as toothbrushes, mugs, glasses and towels in two or three sets/units respectively without the need to call for room service since it is an inconvenience and a hassle. No hotel slippers were also provided.
We only stayed for one night, but everything was great. The hotel is located close to the harbor, restaurants and attractions. The room was clean and comfortable with all amenities. The staff was very helpful in assisting us with transportation to the airport and finding a currency exchange that was open. Overall a great experience and would recommend.
