Friends of ours and my wife had an unforced layover in Brunei due to Royal Brunei Airlines re-scheduling without enough advanced warning so they allowed us an 11 hour stopover in BSB and they put us up at the Orchid Gardens. When we arrived there eventually after the pre-organised transport from the hotel was late-late that put us behind even... More

This hotel is quite spacious, clean and staff are friendly. It is very close to the airport but about a 20 minute drive to Bandar Seri Begawan. The hotel offers a free shuttle into town and from there you can see the highlights. Breakfast was very nice and the restaurant serves excellent food for dinner.

Good modern hotel, grand entrance good comfortable rooms with TV and Wi Fi. Pleasant helpful staff, reasonable food. Small first floor pool with 4 sun chairs! Beware of; The state of the art room controls... switching on lights and aircon has never been so difficult! The hotel and country is dry so bring in some duty free if you like... More

This was our transit hotel. The entrance is grand but the hotel is slightly dated and in serious need of revamp. Room was clean and spacious. It has a confusing control panel to control all their electrics including a magic button that will kill power to the room. Suggest you do not fiddle with it as my bf discovered. There... More

We chose the hotel for a short transit mainly due to its location. The complimentary airport shuttle was adequate but watch out for the additional time incurred waiting for other parties to arrive. The hotel was decorated in neutral colours and the maintenance in public areas are good. The air conditioning in public areas are lacking. Rooms are spacious but... More

I have stayed here previously but this time I was really disappointed with the place, I'm on business and cannot work as the internet connection just wont work, very frustrating. The aircon in the rooms is so cold that I have to turn it off, the hotel is old and needs a re vamp. I give it 2 stars. I... More

There is a free pick up at the airport which we missed out on. They kindly took us to town free of charge to make up for it out of their scheduled free shuttle service. Much appreciated! The rooms were comfortable and nicely appointed. I prefer being a little out of town and this hotel has to be the quietest... More

Whilst on holiday in Malaysia we decided to take a one night trip over to Brunei. Found a great value last minute deal on the internet for this hotel - around £48 per room, per night. Although a little out in the sticks, we hired a car for the two days we spent there (around £30, highly recommended if staying... More

Lacks atmosphere and focus as there is no bar, Brunei being a dry country, and the lounge was closed. Furniture in public areas needs refreshing but rooms spacious and clean and service and staff attitude both very good. No garden, never mind orchids unless you count a couple of potted ones in the foyer! Good breakfast selection and very good... More
