Large rooms. We stayed on the first floor over looking the pool. This converted school has been completed with taste to give a sense of being in the countryside and does not feel like it is near a city centre. A taxi to the waterfront is only 12MR The menu is extensive. We found the Malaysian food to be best... More

Having stayed here as part of a "voluntour" I wasn't expecting much as I knew most of the money would be preserved to pay for the conservation of the orangutans. However I was pleasantly surprised. A nice guesthouse, nice staff, clean rooms. The rooms were air conditioned which was a god send in the humidity! The food was nice and... More

Despite the fact that it's a bit far from the riverfront (20 mins walk and it was quite pleasant as Kuching is very clean and near city) and the cocktails are very expensive, it's absolutely fantastic. My husband and I got the room just above the reception. It was spacious, clean and well equipped. Wifi works well probably because of... More

I stayed here several times during my month in Borneo and found the rooms clean and comfortable as well as reasonably priced. The local dishes were well prepared and cheap, not so the drinks with Carlsberg at around £4.50 a pint. More than twice the price of some of the main meals. The wifi was intermittant and I had to...

This is an older place that has been well maintained. The rooms are a good size with good aircon and a comfy bed. The grounds and garden are nice and the pool is great to come back to after a hot day out. The restaurant has good food and there is a good selection at breakfast. Reception can arrange transport...

This was a great place to stay. We spent 1 week here and it was very relaxing. The rooms were comfortable and large. The AC worked great and the shower was always hot. The staff was super helpful and could arrange any tour you can imagine. Although we took advantage of their rental car and drove ourselves everywhere. The bar... More

This hotel is far a way from city center. Although it is a green and peaceful place to stay. But the rooms above the reception are quite noisy. Choose rooms on the terrace. Services are quite good, and all of you will be met and taken care of. Accommodation and restaurants are in line with what to expect on a... More

We retuned to Basaga towards the end of trip and enjoyed a room with an outside shower which was a pretty unique experience for us and very much enjoyed. We found... More

I’ve stayed at Basaga many times over the past 2 years when visiting Kuching from the rural area of Sarawak where I currently live and work. For me Basaga is home away from home. It is not far from Kuching waterfront, yet secluded, it provides excellent, homely, clean, value for money accommodation, a pool, friendly, helpful staff and very good... More
