"Probably is the newest hotel in the area. Very new both inside and outside. The infinity pool is a huge plus. The morning breakfast has variety of food, both perfect for western culture and local culture."

Overall very good stay at a bargain price. All services available and the executive suites were very nice and spacious. The only issue was a persistent bad odour from the bathroom. The hotel is in good location for Kuching with great views over the river. I would certainly stay there again when I go back to Kuching.
They also had a good range of tours for those wanting to explore beyond Kuching which seemed well priced against the local tour companies.

We had a great stay here as a family. Location and facilities are ideal.
A special mention needs to go Wan who was in charge of the pool and pool Bar. He was such a genuine helpful happy person and made some great drinks. He gave us some ideas and local places to try which were brilliant. Thanks Wan.

Overall an amazing place to stay in kuching, especially if your looking for somewhere with some character.
The place is rustic with a few little bits which arent perfect, but place is really interesting, with lot of history and also really clean.
The hotel is near the old town and china town, with lots of bar and restaurants nearby and short was to the river front.
Bedroom are small but everything you need, both bed and bathroom were immaculate! - (photos are from check out).

We absolutely loved this hotel, you were treated like royalty the moment you arrived - the porters open the doors for you and take your suitcases; the reception staff are extremely friendly, patient and helpful. The staff always recognise you as you go in and out the hotel and ask how you are. There are a miriad of additional services at no extra cost - for example we went away for one night to Bako and they stored our large suitcases in a room and our valuables in a safe at no charge at all....

This Hotel certainly does a good breakfast with wide variety of local foods to include the famous Sarawak Laksa and the usual European/Continental fayre. Assortment of local fruit and fresh lime juice for the health conscious.
The Hotel has very friendly and helpful Front of house staff...indeed all the staff we met were very courteous, polite, friendly and spoke good English especially the owner himself who was happy at all times having breakfast with his guests.

I've always enjoyed the hospitality provided by the hotel management and staff at Citadines upland, Kuching. This is my third visit within a short period of time. The apartments are well maintained and clean. I have recommended this hotel to many of my friends and family members and all came back with very good comments.

The best area to stay in Iris Garden is the Central District, particularly around the Iris Garden Square and the streets immediately surrounding it.
This neighbourhood is the heart of Iris Garden, offering a blend of modern conveniences and local character. It's highly walkable, with pedestrianised zones and tree-lined avenues. You'll find a wide selection of dining options, from local eateries to international restaurants, alongside boutiques and artisan shops. The Iris Garden Square itself is a pleasant green space, often hosting local events.
For couples, the Central District is ideal. You'll be within easy reach of the Iris Garden Botanical Gardens, superb for a leisurely stroll, and the Iris River Promenade, offering picturesque views and evening entertainment. Many of the district's hotels feature high-end amenities, including rooftop pools and exquisite dining, making for a comfortable and refined stay.
Solo travellers will also find the Central District very convenient. Its central location means you can easily explore the Iris Garden Museum and the local art galleries on foot.
When is the best time to go to Iris Garden?
The best time to visit Iris Garden is during the dry season, which typically runs from April to September.
During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and more sunshine, making it ideal for exploring the outdoor gardens and enjoying activities without the interruption of heavy downpours. The weather is generally warm and pleasant, superb for leisurely strolls and photography.
For those planning an active trip, this period offers the most reliable conditions for outdoor excursions around the Iris Garden area, such as hiking or exploring nearby natural attractions. The pathways are less muddy, and the views are clearer.
If you're a couple looking for a relaxing escape, visiting in the dry season ensures you can fully enjoy the garden's beauty and the surrounding tranquillity.
