Staying at the Ibis Surabaya hotel was quite satisfying. The location is very strategic, close to Tunjungan Plaza Surabaya, and local food can be found behind the Ibis hotel within walking distance. The facilities are adequate, although they are single units even for two occupants. Unfortunately, there is no elevator from the car park, making it quite difficult if you have a lot of luggage to carry from the car. The food served is delicious and varied, with good service, and uniquely, there is a playground for elementary school-aged children.

We booked the executive room & couldn't be happier with our choice! From the moment we arrived, Lintang’s warmth & excellent service made a lasting impression. She kindly allowed us to check in early after noticing how tired we were from our flight, and she even provided us with a room that had the best view!
The breakfast was a highlight of our stay, offering an abundance of delicious local dishes. We truly appreciated having the opportunity to enjoy local delicacies rather than standard international fare, which made our experience even more special.
The room itself was spacious & comfortable, providing the perfect retreat after our adventures. Overall, we had a fantastic stay & would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great experience!
Good facilities, unique, spacious rooms, cleanliness is not bad, just there is a cockroach one passing by when I want to sleep. For the room it takes time for the preparation unlike other hotels that usually can go in directly when booking. the security guard is a bit unfriendly

If you don't mind hotels with old nuances and so-so service... Then this hotel might be the right choice. A few useful tips for you: order from the application with the lowest rate, choose the lowest class, do not order the service with breakfast, most importantly ... Lower expectations as low as possible
Plus: the price is very cheap, the publish-rate is even cheaper than some apps. Their lowest class (July 2022) is only 270k, 290k with breakfast (usually fried rice delivered to each room). The location is right in the heart of Surabaya, next door to Plaza Surabaya, Surabaya Square, Submarine Monument, and 5 minutes walk from Gubeng Lama Station. And oh yeah, each of their rooms is equipped with a bathtub.
Minus: some of the interiors seem gloomy and many are already dull. The swimming pool is so-so, but not child-friendly, the shallowest part is 1.2 m and there is no clear barrier with the bottom of the pool sloping to a depth of 1.9 m, so parents who invite their children to swim here must really accompany and ensure children just play along the stairs to enter the pool. Coffee, tea and toiletries provided are only for one person each, except for two towels which look very dull. The choice of food is very limited, the additional menu offered is very expensive, it's better to order online service
Two notes that bothered me quite a bit;
1. A sizeable tax arrears sticker on the front window of the hotel. With the pandemic conditions getting better, I hope you recover quickly and get over it...
2. In the morning I was about to go to the swimming pool, access was still closed, it didn't really matter, the receptionist responded quickly, it's just that at that time there were several young people from nowhere, I can confirm that they were not hotel guests, talking very noisy , two of which smoked from the lobby all the way down the hall to the pool without noticing the surroundings. One of the youths who previously smoked, still wearing trousers and a t-shirt, entered the swimming pool, then used soap in the pool. Enough to take away my mood
The TV is not well connected as it always gets a notification of no signal. It would be better if the staff checks all the facilities before the guest checks in. In some cases, guests won't remember or have the time to report the issue immediately..
Stay 2 days at hotel emerald for the impressions:
+ strategic location in downtown Sby, about 10 minutes from Gubeng station, and tp, near restaurants, about 5 minutes drive, actually it's close, only the area has lots of red lights
+ breakfast even though it's ala carte, but it tastes good 👍 it tastes like a rice bowl s*lar*a
+ got a room on the 1st floor so close there was no need to go up
+ double bed room with a spacious king size bed
+ hot water for bathing works properly and the current is fast, only the knob to turn the shower sometimes dislodges, it seems like it's time to replace it
+ no hotel slippers
+ WIFI is quite fast during the day, a bit slow at night but good overall
- if you get a room on the 2nd floor and so on, you have to go up the stairs half a floor first and then there is an elevator (the receptionist said, I didn't try to take the elevator because I got a room on the 1st floor)
- got a room without a window, but there is another twin bed room with a window and a terrace on the 1st floor
- uneven parking, hard to pull the suitcase, looks like it needs to be repaired
- the lobby is cramped and small with only about 2-3 seats, not suitable for long waits or for chatting
- There is no heater and compliment bottled mineral water, but as a substitute a pot of drinking water is provided and 2 glass glasses to fill yourself with fresh gallon water dispenser brand CL*O which is provided in the hallway of the hotel but the choice of hot water in the dispenser when I tried it didn't work , only plain water works
Overall good, as long as you get to the 1st floor then it's not a problem you don't need to go up, good breakfast, please pay attention to the hot water dispenser for drinking Subaya can function properly

NNicooleeI had a wonderful experience here.
The hotel is conveniently located just a three-minute walk from a large shopping mall, making it very easy to access shops and restaurants.
The living environment was excellent, and the front desk staff kindly upgraded my room, which made my stay even more comfortable. After wandering around for weeks, being able to relax and watch Netflix was simply fantastic.
Highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay in Surabaya!

FFareezBig room and walkable to the malls like Tunjungan Plaza and Plaza Surabaya.
But aircon is set to a fixed temperature and even after changing rooms it's still not cool enough
VVictor AbdiEverything went well. The hotel staff is friendly, even though the hotel is old but still well maintained, the location is very strategic. Breakfast is quite varied and tastes good. Very value for money.

MMichel HuiEverything is good including the location except the house keeping.
We enjoyed our massages and dinner buffet in the hotel because it was raining in the evening. But they are nice and very affordable. I also like their breakfast buffet.
The only miss is the cleanliness and the housekeeping quality. We have changed the room once because the bathtub got stains. Then in the second room, my pillowcase is dirty and the flush didn’t work. Yet I appreciate their help to fix them.
The staff are extremely welcoming and friendly. I wish they can improve the housekeeping quality or else everything is perfect :)
MMax WakefieldWe stayed one night on our way through Surabaya from Maluku and on into Java. The hotel did everything we needed and is within walking distance of one of Surabaya's main train stations for trains to other cities. There is a good restaurant 50m away, and even a few local sites nearby like an old submarine you can go inside(!?).

• The room clean and modern.
• The lighting creates a cozy ambiance, and the bed setup inviting and comfortable.
• It appears well-maintained, though the base of the bed could use a little touch-up.
Dining :full of choices!

AAnonymous UserThe hotel had a very weird smell. They need to start putting a fresh scent from the lobby until the hallway to the room. As for the room, they should clean the room and change the dehumidifier regularly. It was very frustrating when you were very tired and had to deal with a dirty room. Hope they can improve the service. The hotel has a lot of potential.
SSteven DowsonGreat location near the train station. Friendly staff, English spoken. Large room with huge comfortable bed, very clean, excellent hot shower. We arrived from Bromo lacking sleep and slept peacefully here for 10 hours, very quiet, good soundproofing. There was a damp patch on the wall (see photo) but the room itself was not damp so not a problem, and we did kill a couple of small roaches but again not a problem. Nice views of the city. Excellent breakfast of fresh fruit and asian choices, enjoyed the sauteed greens, veg curry, tofu and tempe. We enjoyed our stay very much, refreshed and ready for our onward journey to Yogyakarta. Highly recommend, would stay again. To improve, the hotel could provide filtered water dispensers to remove the need for plastic bottled water in rooms.
