Guest Reviews

• Shawn Law (10/5): Highly recommended to stay in this grand hotel - One of the most comfortable hotels we stayed in after years of traveling. The check-in process was quite smooth and the staff is really friendly as well. We got a free upgrade to the deluxe room and the room exceeded our expectations. The bed is extremely comfortable and the bathroom is very clean and grand. The hotel is very big has quite a few facilities like swimming pool, pool to kayak and cinema, although we did not have the time to use them since we were only in Brunei for 2-3 days. Definitely recommended to stay in this hotel if you are in Brunei and we will stay in this hotel again if we are back in Brunei. NA
• KYOHEI (9/5): のんびり過ごせるアジアリゾート - 広いプールと海とスタッフの丁寧な対応
• Sid Khurana (8/5): -
• Michael (10/5): Diese Hotel hat mich total begeistert - Wunderschönes Luxushotel. Die Pools sind riesig und warm. Das Sportscenter ist das Beste, was ich in einem Hotel gesehen habe. Tennis, Squash, Badminton….
• 淳ちゃん (5/5): 普通 - フロントがクレームにも対応してくれた。 施設が使えない　レストラン。 ロビー周りが工事で見た目も悪いし、通路も良くない。 半日のツアーを進められる、でも来た車の質の悪さと、ドライバーの不親切には残念でした。
• JUNPEI (10/5): -
• Tracie Wong (10/5): Go Empire - The Empire Brunei offers 5 star service throughout the hotel. Personally I think it's more a resort than a hotel. The room we stayed in was very clean and came with complimentary mini bar. It also offers stunning view of the South China Sea from a very spacious balcony. Facilities on the hotel ground are very well maintained. The retail shops in the hotel offers a variety of interesting products. Screaming children running around in the buffet breakfast restaurant
• Risa (8/5): -
• Sindy (10/5): - The Empire is by far the best hotel in Brunei. The location is perfect. Staff were friendly and always willing to go the extra mile. Rooms were large, clean and well equipped with amazing views. I could not fault this hotel. Leaving
• Harry (9/5): -
• Valerii (10/5): - Everything was great ✨
• Soichi (7/5): ちょっと残念な豪華ホテルの滞在 - 広い部屋に、大きなバスタブや大理石の洗面台等豪華な設備がある。 大きなプールがある広い敷地が、丁寧に整備されている。 このホテルの1番の見所であるアトリウムの1階が、立ち入り禁止になっていた。スタッフに聞いても事情が良くわからず、これから行く方は、事前に状況を確認することをお勧めします。
• TOSHIKO (9/5): 心からリラックスできた - 立地、眺めが最高 良くなかったことはないし、仕方がないと分かっているが、国際会議のためか、通常の朝食会場が使えず、メインホールへも行けなかった。 通行が遮られ、ビーチやプールに行くのに遠回りしなければならなかった。
• Gavin (9/5): Great place to stay in Brunei - A huge resort and country club, can easily spend the whole day here enjoying use of the pools, restaurants, walking around the resort, sunsets were epic whilst we were there. Enjoyed the Japanese restaurant Zen and local food at the lounge restaurant. There’s a 24 hour patisserie with pastries and drinks. A couple of souvenir shops. The country club offers plenty of sporting activities. There’s a pool bar. No alcohol drinks are served keep in mind. Loved the spacious room, we were upgraded to an Ocean Room in the Seaview building. Staff were professional and attentive throughout always aiming to please. We arranged a car and driver to take us to explore the sights in Brunei paying $120 for three hours in the evening and $200 for 6 hours in the day to head to the mosques, museums and the water village. I would suggest a minimum of three nights in Brunei at the resort for a lovely stay. There was on going renovation of the lobby and some areas of the resort were also undergoing maintenance as well. We were told that the spa was fully booked upon arrival, but thankfully the staff were able to make a special arrangement. The decor and design may appear a little dated and I can’t deny that it could do with a few touch ups here and there.
• Diederick (8/5): Impressive, but faded glory - The place itself is absolutely marvelous. An excessive amount of marble and gold surface its walls and floors. It's breathtaking to be here. The hotel staff is really friendly and helpful. However, it appears that since 2024, large sections of the main lobby (behind the reception desks) have been closed for maintenance. As a result, breakfast was served in a conference hall rather than the main lobby, which was rather disappointing. In addition, the section of the swimming pool that included the pool bar was also closed for maintenance. To make matters worse, of the original six restaurants, only two remained open. It seems the property has simply become too large and costly to maintain properly.
• MaryJoan (8/5): -
• MASANARI (10/5): -
• Toya (8/5): - 清潔感 トイレにウォシュレット、ヒーターがついてない。
• Yasu (10/5): - サービスが良い。ツアー手配が早い。金額の割に豪華。コーヒーや食事美味しい。 文句のつけようがない。
• Chia-Jung (10/5): 以住宿的價格而言，絕對值得到此體驗，一定能夠留下美好的回憶。 - 員工服務親切，設備豪華舒適，風景優美氣氛寧靜。 無。
• Philippe (8/5): Seul dans un immense palais - sentiment de solitude absolue - Déco majestueuse et démesurée des parties communes Déco des chambres et des Salles de bains défraîchies.
• Polly (10/5): -
• Sarah (10/5): Family-friendly resort vacation. - The pools, views of the ocean, the club (especially badminton, bowling) room size and service. The curtains didn’t open and close fully and bathtub stopper didn’t work. Ongoing pool & restaurant construction with no prior notification.
• Jutta (9/5): Empire Brunei-Luxushotel mit Schlossflair - Hotel war extravagant. Wir wurden upgegradet und hatten damit Balkon mit Meerblick.. Kofferträger hat uns hervorragende 5-std. Tour nach Brunei gebucht mit Fahrer nicht allzu teuer. Bufgets für Frühstück und Abendessen waren gigantisch.. Vom Beach wurde uns abgeraten wegen Krilodilgefahr. Wasserzufuhr für Badewanne war unsauber. Preis insgesamt zu hoch.
• Leo (10/5): -
• Pei Ying (9/5): -
• Chia Hung (10/5): - Friendly attentive staff, excellent environment and atmosphere, great food, great beach and pool, everything. The staff take very good care of the hotel residents. Nothing except for high price, but is worth it.
• Alexander (10/5): Sehr empfehlenswert!! Ist ein Erlebnis in Brunei - Service !!!!!, top Sauberkeit, wunderschöne Lage. Alles war perfekt
• Jason (1/5): - Sunset and ocean view The staff is rude. It is very wried that clean service provided at night time when we are resting on beds. Secondly, we did check out yet but the staff insisted on following us till the room to charge the amount we consumed, it is very impolite and disrespectful to do that. Do not go there. Very bad service.
• Xiao Guang (9/5): - 自助餐品种少，味道很一般！
• Melissa (10/5): Excellent stay, staff went above and beyond to ensure a good stay. - Beautiful hotel, beautiful swimming pools and facilities. Hospitable staff. Nothing, I liked everything.
• Mohd Aza Izman (10/5): -
• IGOR (10/5): - Отель очень понравился. Жили в корпусе Seaview. У отеля очень классная территория и береговая линия. Огромный бассейн с каяками. Отличный завтрак. В будние дни отель очень немноголюден, это доставляет отдельное удовольствие. В выходные приезжают брунейцы семьями, на завтраке становится тесновато, но у бассейнов при этом все равно не очень многолюдно. Трансфер из аэропорта за вменяемые деньги. Сотрудники аэропорта организовали нам также трансфер-экскурсию с водителем по столице. Мы купались в море, хотя это не рекомендовано отелем, но и не запрещают. Не везде оперативно убирают мусор, принесенный морем
• Delband (10/5): unforgettable experience and world-class excellence - Empire Brunei is a true hidden gem; stepping inside feels like entering a majestic palace where every guest is treated like royalty. From impeccable service and exquisite dining to world-class facilities and unforgettable activities, every detail is crafted to the highest standard imaginable. Nothing!
• Ibnu Navis (10/5): -
• Benedikta (5/5): -
• Moe (3/5): 口コミと違うことがありすぎました、、 - 立地はいいです。ニューモスクとナイトマーケットさえDartで行けばあとは徒歩で行けます。 観光地へのシャトルサービスがあると口コミで見ましたが、ドライバーがいないと言われて空港送迎のみでした。コネクティングルームに案内されましたが、コネクティングドアに鍵がなく、隣が空室かと思いきや、宿泊者がいたので、夜中に入ってこないか不安で眠れなかった。部屋の変更もできないと言われ、怖かったです。
• Sushil (9/5): - Everything was top notch. On online booking. Breakfast option werent included. So have to pay extra for breakfast.
• Azyyati (10/5): Everything was perfect. Room was cozy. Staffs were polite and helpful. The pools are big. - Everything about the Empire is beautiful No bidet in the toilet
• Yutaro (7/5): 惜しい良いホテル - 施設やロケーション、スタッフの質はとても素晴らしかった。 着いた日にスーツケースを預けたが、翌日午前中まで紛失する事態となってしまった。最終的に無事に見つかったので良かったが、不安のため初日はほとんど眠ることができず、まったく休むことができなかった。
• Julie (10/5): Exceptional luxury and service - This place is quite amazing and impossible to describe. You just have to go. It is huge and they have everything. The grounds are so large they pick you up in a cart to drive you to things. The lobby has massive white and gold pillars. The room was huge and spotless. We had a stunning ocean view. The bed was very comfortable; we slept so well. The breakfast was amazing. The room wasn’t cheap but it was a great value. The service was absolutely impeccable. Nothing could have been better.
• Aksel (6/5): Great place, but most restaurants were closed. - Excellent design, location, staff Marketed as having multiple restaurants, but everything was closed, except Italian. Very bad!
• Marisa (10/5): -
• Jacob (10/5): -
• Juergen (8/5): Sehr ruhig und erholsam - Strandlage Keine liege auf dem Balkon Wifi suboptimal in den Poollagen
• Raluca (9/5): - Facilitatile. Piscina este cu adevarat spectaculoasă. Personalul poate fi instruit mai bine, sunt foarte haotici.
• Steven (10/5): -
• Melanie (9/5): Tolle Hotelanlage direkt am Meer - Schöne Anlage direkt am Meer mit super nettem Personal.
• Norinah (10/5): I would like to come back again in the future. - A great place to stay with family. Nil
• Aziz (10/5): -
• Andrei (9/5): - Отель один из лучших в стране и красивый. Самый большой бассейн который я видел, в нем можно плавать на каяках. В целом отель очень хороший, но немного дорогой. И сервис в ресторанах нужно улучшить - непонятно зачем везде спрашивают номер комнаты, в итальянский без номера даже не пустили,хотя всем объяснял что оплачивать будем в ресторане картой, а не при отъезде.
• Dmitriy (10/5): One of the best hotels in SE Asia! - Amazing ! We are in love with Brunei and big part of our impression is after this hotel. The hotel has everything - tennis, ping pong, billiard, bowling, squash, badminton, gym, spa, pools, cinema, great restaurants, tour agencies, all service. Impressive art deco architecture, views. King service ! Perfect food in restaurants. Top experience
• Mei Yueh (9/5): -
• YONG HO (10/5): -
• Mancini (10/5): - Amazing facilities, the friendliness of the staff and the room, really luxurious Location is a bit far from the city centre but not a big issue anyway
• Toshiyuki (10/5): -
• Yelizaveta (9/5): Прекрасно - Дизайн отеля хоть и немного устаревший, но все сделано очень качественно и дорого. Золото, мрамор, натуральное дерево. Очень чисто. Внимание к деталям, которое было раньше в отелях 5 звезд, но благополучно позабылось. Хорошее постельное белье, полотенца, столовое серебро и посуда, вкусная еда. Такая деталь, как тканевые салфетки на подлокотниках кресел в лобби приятно удивили, такое я последний раз встречала лет пятнадцать назад. На территории отеля есть магазинчики, кафе с десертами (есть медовик!).К содержанию у нас было мало времени чтобы оценить всю территорию отеля, но в общем впечатление осталось очень положительное. 15 мин на машине до аэропорта и до центра города.
• YUPEI (10/5): Topest hotel with nice view and maintaince. - Nice sea view
• YUKIKO (8/5): 7つ星ホテルを経験出来て良かったです、そこまで高く無いですし。 - 朝食が美味しかった。スタッフも親切 特に思いつかないです

• Kestutis (10/5): Majestic building !!! -
• CHIHIRO (10/5): 最高級のおもてなし - ホテルスタッフの方が大変親切で、とてもお世話になりました。 深夜のフライトだと行ったら、チェックアウト後にもかかわらずスパのジャグジーとシャワーを使わせてくれて、とてもありがたかったです。 強いて言うなら市街地からは離れているので、タクシーを呼ばないといけない、タクシーも来るまでに10分以上かかるところ。でも、ホテル周辺は静かでとても過ごしやすいです。
• Kohei (10/5): -
• CHISAKI (9/5): -
• Lorelee Margaret (10/5): - Everything. I think the service and the opulence of the place deserves the price point.
• TAE (10/5): -
• Cynthia (10/5): - La gentillesse du personnel, le raffinement des détails
• Jill (8/5): Great for one night only - Amazing hotel. Lovely big rooms and ensuite. Facilities are in abundance. Breakfast was ordinary. Italian restaurant too expensive. Food generally is not good. Thai restaurant is a beautiful building but again, food no good.
• Yun (9/5): - The staffs are wonderful and I got great service from every interaction with them. It was hot during my stay and I was pleasantly surprised to see that the staffs have taken the initiative to fill up my ice bucket when I returned to the room. Room is absolutely lovely and I can see the sea view and sunrise from my balcony. The pool is great and not overcrowded with kids and family. I am able to get a good evening swim in it. The room is definitely a place to linger and relax in.

• Farah (9/5): The hotel provides excellent service and facilities. - The staff were very friendly and treated customers warmly. The service and facilities were superb. I had breakfast at Zest and also dined at Atrium Café, and I loved the way they served us. Very worth the price! I experienced an issue with the toilet flush, but it was quickly escalated and resolved. The only thing I didn’t like was that there was no water pipe in the toilet. Other than that, I really enjoyed the hotel.
• ひとみ (9/5): 非日常の滞在を満喫しました - 広大で豪華な施設で非日常を楽しめました。朝食のビュッフェやルームサービスもメニューが豊富で楽しめます。 スタッフが皆、常に声をかけて下さり、ホスピタリティにあふれていました。 ホテル内のアクティビティや市内観光の最新の情報を教えていただけるとありがたく思いました。
• Xiao (10/5): Super - Everything No
• Takeru (10/5): -
• Maezel Ann Victorie (10/5): We’ll definitely go back and stay longer!! - One word, AMAZING!! WORTH THE PRICE!! None
• MINSEO (9/5): - 수영장이 잘되어있고 직원들이 친절해요
• Susan (10/5): - It's a beautiful place so big but so quiet and peaceful ,plenty of space Buffet tables could do with some smaller ones due too solo travelling
• YOSHIMI (8/5): ７つ星ホテルの宿泊体験 - 圧倒される豪華さ。非日常の素晴らしい時間が過ごせました。 期待値が高すぎたせいかもしれませんが至れり尽くせりのサービスを提供するおもてなし、とはやや違いました。もちろんスタッフの方々は皆さんとても親切です。施設の豪華さを体験する宿泊という感じでした。 金曜日の正午から午後2時はフロント一部を除きすべての施設(プール、ショップ、レストラン)が休業します。行動が制限されるため出来るのであれば金曜日を避けて宿泊するのをおすすめします。

• Raj (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jane (10/5): Such a luxurious hotel - The Empire is a terrific hotel. From the moment you arrive you are treated so well. The hotel is a beautiful hotel with stunning views. The staff are so helpful and polite. The rooms are enormous and have everything you might want. The bathrooms are so lovely. The facilities are amazing. The pools are terrific. And the food is just wonderful. There is so much choice. My husband needs to be gluten free and there is always so much choice for him. This time, the staff remembered his requirements from the last time we stayed. It is all so impressive. There is nothing to be done to improve the Empire, it is fabulous!
