バンダルスリブガワンのおすすめホテル8選——ブルネイの首都（2026年版）

The list opens with The Empire Brunei, the grandest 5-star resort in the country, sprawled across 445 acres on the South China Sea at Jerudong. It went up in the 1990s under Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, and the gold-trimmed Islamic architecture was built to show off Brunei's wealth — gold domes, marble columns, the works. You get 522 rooms, 7 international restaurants running from Malay to Japanese to European steaks, 5 pools, a spa, tennis courts and a bowling alley, all on one property ringed by tropical forest. Guests score it 8.8/10 and keep coming back to the scale, the service and the facilities you simply can't get anywhere else in Brunei. Rooms start at about $231 a night for a Superior, climbing past $700 for the top suites. The one catch is distance: it sits about 20 km outside central BSB.

Radisson Hotel Brunei Darussalam is the strongest 5-star inside central Bandar Seri Begawan — a 5-minute walk to the Royal Regalia Museum, the royal-regalia collection of Brunei's monarchy, 10 minutes from the Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque and 15 minutes from the Kampong Ayer water-village pier. It scores 8.5/10, with reviewers calling out spacious rooms, polite staff, good food and a solid pool. Some high floors look straight at the golden dome of the mosque — the best view in the country. You get 2 restaurants, an outdoor pool, a full fitness center, free fast Wi-Fi and free parking, with rooms from about $154 a night. It's the pick for anyone who wants international-standard reliability and the freedom to walk the old town on foot, no car required.

The Rizqun International Hotel is the best-value 4-star in Brunei, and the location is the whole pitch: it's attached to The Mall Gadong, the biggest shopping centre in Bandar Seri Begawan, in the commercial Gadong district. The score sits at 8.5/10, with guests calling out clean, roomy rooms, polite and genuinely helpful staff, a big pool and food that holds up meal after meal. Rooms run wider than you'd expect at this tier, there's an outdoor pool open daily, a full fitness centre and several meeting rooms for anyone here on business. Rates start around $115 a night, which puts it on par with the Radisson for a noticeably lower price. The trade-off is distance: you're roughly 5–8 km from the historic core around Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque and Kampong Ayer, so plan on a taxi for sightseeing.

The Centrepoint Hotel carries an 8.6/10 on Agoda — the highest score in Bandar Seri Begawan's 4-star price tier — drawn from over 449 reviews. It sits in Gadong, the city's main commercial district, with malls, restaurants and banks within easy reach and the historic quarter a 5 to 8 km taxi ride away. Guests keep describing it the same way: a second home with friendly, old-fashioned service. Rooms are clean and comfortable, there's a Halal restaurant and a pool, and rates start around $100 a night (up to roughly $214 for the top rooms). It's an easy pick for travelers and business visitors who want a convenient base and good service without paying five-star money.

Orchid Garden Hotel is a 4-star sitting close to Brunei International Airport — the pick if you need a bed the night before an early flight or you land late. It scores 7.7/10, with most reviews praising the easy airport access, the quiet setting, and the price. There's an outdoor pool and a Halal restaurant on-site, plus free Wi-Fi and free parking. The airport is about 5 km away, roughly a 10–15 minute drive, while the historic core and the Gadong shopping district sit some 10–15 km off — far enough that this works better as a transit stay than a base for sightseeing. Rooms start around $80 a night, the lowest 4-star rate on this list.

Jubilee Hotel is the budget pick with the best central location for the price in Bandar Seri Begawan — a 15-minute walk to Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque, the gold-domed mosque that stands as Brunei's symbol, and about 10 minutes on foot to the Kampong Ayer water-village pier. It scores 7.5/10 on Agoda, but the picture is mixed — Booking.com gives it 6.1 while Trip.com rates it 8.2, mostly for friendly staff. The rooms are basic and some feel old, but the trade is hard to argue with: this is the lowest central rate in town, from about $51 a night, with the main sights close enough that you never need a taxi. It suits backpackers and travelers on a tight budget more than anyone chasing comfort.

KH Soon Resthouse is the cheapest place to sleep in central Bandar Seri Begawan — basic, clean, and functional, nothing more. It sits within walking distance of Kampong Ayer, the stilt-house water village strung across the river, and the historic core. Rooms start at $34 a night, clearly under anything else in the city centre, and run up to about $71. You get a bed, air-con, Wi-Fi, and a front desk — no pool, no restaurant, no spa. That trade is the whole point: this is a base for travellers who plan to spend their days on foot around the old town and only come back to the room to sleep. Brunei has far fewer accommodation options than its neighbours, which is exactly why a budget spot like KH Soon holds its ground here. If your budget is genuinely tight and comfort extras don't matter, it does the job.

Terrace Hotel BSB is a tidy 3-star in the heart of Bandar Seri Begawan that scores 7.8/10 and comes with an outdoor pool and an on-site restaurant. Rooms start at around $63 a night, which lands it squarely between the cheaper Jubilee Hotel (roughly $51) and the higher-rated Centrepoint Hotel (around $100). The big draw is the pool — genuinely uncommon at this price in BSB, and welcome in Brunei's heat. You're in the city centre, close enough to walk to Kampong Ayer and the Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque. It won't match the polish of a 4-star, but for mid-budget travelers who want a swim without paying top dollar, it's a sensible middle pick.
