I had a great stay at Badi’ah Hotel! The room was very spacious and comfortable. I’d like to especially thank Darren Tan for being so responsive and helpful through email. everything was smooth from start to finish. I also appreciated the free airport pick-up and drop-off service, which made the trip very convenient. We were lucky to have Joseph as our driver who was friendly, professional, and trustworthy. The WiFi was fast and reliable too. Thank you so much, Badi’ah Hotel! I’ll definitely recommend this place to my friends and family.
I recently stayed at the Radisson Deluxe Suite and had a fantastic experience. The new design of the room is stunning, with a modern aesthetic that creates a welcoming atmosphere. The suite is incredibly spacious, providing plenty of room to relax and unwind. Plus, the value for the price is exceptional. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a comfortable and stylish stay!
The experience was good in general, but the AC was broken for the entire building. I stayed for four days and the highest temperature in the room was 87 degrees.
The hotel wifi is horrible!!! Better to go to Starbuck to get the wifi connection. The location of the hotel is good with many nice, good restaurants nearby, all within walking distance
The swimming pool is on the 2nd floor and you have to walk across the building to go to the pool which is so inconvenient. The swimming pool is pretty bare with no facilities
The lobby area is quite miserable with limited seats. There is a bakery store and Starbuck is within the lobby area. The room is clean but a little old, need to do some renovation to improve on the outlook
The front office section is super helpful and prone to awareness and I had been staying here ever since I drop by Brunei...its my one stop place for me to rest with no issue at all...Easy access to all food variety surrounding in that area.. marvellous
📍Day 3 | 1st June 2025, Sunday
The Empire Brunei 🇧🇳
After all the walking yesterday, today was all about rilexing in style—and what better place than the legendary Empire Brunei?
✅ And yes—it absolutely lived up to the hype. 😍
This place is more than just a hotel. It's basically its own little kingdom. Here’s what they offer:
🏀 Full country club (basketball, squash, badminton, table tennis, pools 🎱)
🏊♂️ Indoor swimming pools & jacuzzis
🏖️ Private beaches & lagoons
🚴♀️ Kayaks & bicycles
🎥 On-site cinema
👶 Kids Club
🍽️ 4 Restaurants
⛳ Golf course
🚙 Buggy rides everywhere (the place is huge!)
We booked a Dart ride from Jubilee Hotel and arrived around 11AM. Although check-in was supposed to be at 2PM, we were warmly greeted by Hafiz at the front desk. He invited us to explore the facilities while we waited. Then… surprise! Our room was ready by 12PM and we even got a free upgrade to the Ocean King Sea View Room.
Influencer perks? Maybe 😎 (Just kidding 😂).
Thank you, Empire Brunei!
A buggy took us straight to our room—and wow, it was huge, luxurious, and the sea view was something else. 🌊
Lunch was at Pantai Restaurant. My son loves the mini burgers 🍔 while we enjoyed the ocean breeze and relaxed atmosphere. Afterwards, we wandered the lobby and took in the stunning architecture—those iconic golden pillars are a masterpiece. 🏛️
After prayers, we changed into sport/swimwear and headed to the Country Club. I jumped into a pickup basketball game with two lads from the UK while wifey and my son relaxed in the indoor pool and jacuzzi nearby. 🏀🛁
Later, we visited the Kids Club— My son splashed happily while we took a breather. Just before sunset, we found a quiet spot outside. Brunei’s sunset? Absolutely underrated. 🌅
To wrap up the day, we stayed in for dinner (room service KA dendeng 😅). FYI, you need to put down a deposit to order room service. We were way too tired to head out again anyway.
Rating?
Empire Brunei = ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (7 stars, obviously 😂)
Truly a 10/10 experience—elegant, peaceful, and unforgettable.
Feeling recharged and grateful.
The hotel is in a prime location, close to all attractions, the room is of a suitable size, the surrounding places to eat are also very good, and the hotel service is also very good. The entire Brunei transportation is extremely inconvenient, there are few public transportation and taxis are very expensive.
Good: you can fill up the google form on their official hotel website to request for the complimentary airport transfer to hotel. When you check in, you can also pre-arrange the complimentary airport transfer to the airport.
Not so good: They prioritise their airport transfer first, only if they do not have airport transfer, then they will allow you to book the free shuttle to the city attractions. Therefore, please do not rely so much on the free shuttle. You may want to download Dart App before Arrival into Brunei. Dart is Brunei Car Hiring App like Uber or Grab. Dart only accept cash payment.
The room was very good and very close to the airport, only about three kilometers. The price/performance ratio should be said to be very high. The only drawback is that the introduction says there is a free shuttle bus to the airport, but in fact there is not. You have to call a taxi yourself, so this is quite troublesome.
There's one of the best locations hotel in Brunei 🇧🇳, shopping mall ( times square) just located in the same building of the hotel as well. Furthermore, also connected to the other 2 shopping mall ( airport mall and city square as well.) breakfast quite nice and room service food also not bad. The Room was clean and spacious too. Will stay again this hotel. Thanks
Very Good

AAnonymous UserThe location is very good in the city center, it is very convenient to nearby attractions, the environment is OK, there are office and charging places in the public area, air conditioning, and the price is relatively cheap.

AAmal SanifI stayed with my families here and booked the room via trip and hotel, the price per night for this hotel unfortunately doesn’t feel like worth it. I am hoping to see major renovation and cleaning, the hotel need massive upgrade, everything is too old, twin room is 2 probably super single bed or is actually 2 single bed, while other country at this rate has twin room with huge super single or double bed. The breakfast is just okay, with toast, cornflakes, some other menu like nasi lemak, noodles and rice porridge. This area has no access to public transport unless you walk towards the main road.. the extreme cleaning in the room, carpets need to change or clean with soap. The only good thing.. i haven’t seen any bed bugs.
JjoshuaelaineThe two rooms are actually three rooms, the middle one is an open kitchen and living room. The location is not good, except for the supporting commercial area downstairs, you must have a car when you go out. The staff is very nice, the only hotel where there is nothing wrong with the front desk to the room service. There is a free airport shuttle. Later, I heard that I needed to buy medicine, and I specially arranged for someone to drive us out without any cost. There are service points of large car rental companies, and travel services can also be booked with hotels. The commercial facilities are quite complete, and there will be locals eating a work meal at noon.
GGuest UserCheck in time is strictly at 2pm.
Bed a bit hard (For me)
Gym quite run down or under renovation.
However it's quite convenient as the supermarket is just downstairs.
