We relax by the pool while enjoying the foods from the Rooftop Restaurant. From the wood-fired grill, the Five chicken wings are tasty. All grilled items come with homemade salsa verde, grilled pita bread, salad & pilaf rice.
Big meal after swimming session by the pool.
The Rooftop Restaurant and poolside Bar & Grill sharing the same menu so you will choose to have the foods at the pool or inside the Rooftop Restaurants. For dinner, We tried the Sabah tiger prawn marinated in lemon & rosemary which is fresh with the taste of sea and herbs. The menu at Rooftop Restaurant is limited for and we decided to have more foods at the Urban Kitchen on the ground floor.
The lunch buffet price is RM68 nett per person from Monday till Sunday and RM128 nett per person on Sundays.
Dinner buffet price is RM118 nett per person from Sunday till Friday and RM128 nett per person on Saturdays.
Breakfast is served at Urban Kitchen and the selection for breakfast is what you expect from Hilton standard.

Staffs were friendly and they did their best as the hotel is still new. Hilton Kota Kinabalu is certainly an excellent addition to the hotel scene in Kota Kinabalu offering tourists and business travelers a great stay while in Kota Kinabalu
