We had a wonderful stay at Seladah Homestay. The property consists of two combined houses, making it quite spacious with a total of eight rooms (two rooms downstairs and the rest upstairs). It features an RFID door lock system and an automatic gate with a remote, so there’s no need to use a traditional key. We arrived late at night, but self-check-in was convenient, allowing us to settle in without waiting for the owner. The homestay also offers high-speed Wi-Fi, estimated at around 500 Mbps. Since all guests live under the same roof, you’ll have the opportunity to meet your housemates. Our rooms, located upstairs, were designed for two people and came with private bathrooms, which was very convenient. The living room has TVs available for use, and a washing machine is beneath the staircase. The parking area accommodates about three cars inside the compound and two additional cars outside. The owner was also very responsive to my inquiries. Thank you very much for a great experience! I will definitely return for my next stay. :)

The house is well-decorated with some historical pictures and beautiful paintings of original Kuching. It is a traditional and typical Chinese house (I think), and always let me feel easy and comfortable. Also, let me understand and experience the early Chinese life in Kuching.

It will be nice if there are transportation prepare or we can have on during staying there because it’s hard to visit the other place since the other places very far from the city.

I stayed here for over 2 months and cannot express enough how perfect my stay has been. Zak thinks of everything before you even realise you need it yourself. Little things like making sure the light is turned on in the hall for when you arrive home or wake up early, or a roti on the table for you at breakfast. This place really felt like home. Zak offers trips and tours too, and tailors them to whatever it is you want to get from your visit to this beautiful place. Whether you want to tour every day, or you need a place to rest a while, or you are a digital nomad...this place is perfect for everyone. Thank you Zak, and to your family and friends, for making me so welcome 🙏

Zach was the kindest host - he stayed up for my late arrival and dropped me at the airport for my very early departure. After travelling around Malaysia for work, I was feeling knackered but Zach's home was an absolute home away from home, the perfect place to rest and relax. It was nice to stay in a kampung (village) and you are directly across the river from the main part of town with a fun (and cheap) water taxi to take across. Excellent wifi and comfy room with lots of space! Would be a great park up for a few weeks or so if you're a digital nomad! I will be back :D Thank you Zach!

Great homestay and awesome hosts Louise and Polycarp. We saw a probiscus monkey in the back yard! Apparently, other monkeys do show up as well. The pool was a nice treat. Our room was comfy and spacious. The view through the bathroom window was amazing. Grounds are lovely. Close for pick up for the river night cruise and our hosts dropped us off and picked us up at the Sarawak Cultural Village. Would totally recommend.

    This guest house is in a great location close to the waterfront. The host is incredibly friendly and helpful. He provided many suggestions for activities and transportation. He even picked us up from the airport, as he was nearby. We were able to leave luggage on the day of our checkout before our late flight. Good AC, consistently hot water, great restaurant downstairs. Would happily stay here again.

    It was a great pleasure to stay at Merdeka Guest House! Firstly, the host - he is super helpful, friendly, we spent great time together, he recommended fantastic local spots, made a little foody surprise in the mornings, even helped us find good cheap durian to try! Secondly, the room - it's small but clean and you have everything you need. It was one of our best stays in Malaysia.

    Jane and Sam are warm, engaging and considerate hosts who'll do their very best to ensure that you enjoy your stay with them and in Kuching! The breakfast is great (for a guesthouse) with oats, fruits, fried noodles/rice, eggs and spreads, the guesthouse charming and cosy (albeit a bit rundown), and only 15min walk from the waterfront. It's also a great place to meet other travellers, if you're so inclined:)
