    “Excellent location ”

    I spent five nights here after staying at Hotel Ciputra last visit. On the positive I was very grateful to be able to check in early...many thanks. The check in was super quick, easy and friendly. The room.was spotlessly clean and the bed was very comfortable. I used the pool several times and it was very clean which I appreciated. The location of the hotel was fantastic with a mall across the road with a cinema and many food outlets. Most of the hotel looks lovely but in many areas it needs some attention to detail...in my room there were missing pieces of laminate which are quick and easy to repair and the shampoo and soap dispenser was rusted and broken. Of course this didn't detract from my stay but a four star hotel must pay attention to detail. The breakfast buffet offered a wide selection of food for both western and local tastes....perhaps the food could be a little hotter as some mornings it was cold... Special thanks to the housekeeping staff who do a fantastic job. I would certainly recommend this hotel and certainly stay here again.

    I was visiting Semarang for annual Semarang10k Race, and surely recommend this Hotel as a place to stay, because it's near from the venue, it has clean room which also smells nice, the staffs were helpful, and the breakfast menu was plenty, you can choose whatever you want, the gym was also very clean and had suitable amount equipments. The price was reasonable so, it's 9.5/10 for me.

    “Excellent”

    Great Stay with Minor Hiccups The location is fantastic, making it easy to explore the area. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant experience. Cleanliness is well-maintained throughout the property, contributing to a comfortable atmosphere. While the facilities are decent, the Wi-Fi could use improvement. However, I enjoyed restful nights with reliable hot water and efficient housekeeping, making my overall stay enjoyable.

    Friendly and very helpful staff during the stay. However, the room facilities still need to be improved and maintained, the hot water decreases when occupancy is high, hope this gets attention.
