Our rooms & facilities
|
Located on a small hill adjacent to the restaurant, the newly renovated and spacious chalets and dormitories at Hornbill Lodge offer visitors sweeping views of the Kinabatangan river. Rooms are nestled amongst the trees and connected to a large dining area and river-facing deck via covered wooden walkways.
Every river chalet and dormitory comes with it's own river-facing balcony, offering you a peaceful space to enjoy the river view between cruises. All river chalets and dormitories have modern, ensuite Western-style bathroom facilities with hot water showers. |
Accessibility
Due to our hillside location, there is no step-free access to the rooms at Hornbill Lodge. The furthest rooms require climbing around 85 steps, the closest 10 to 20 steps. If you require a closer room, please inform our team at the time of booking and we will do our best to place you in one of the rooms closest to our restaurant and reception area.
