South Semarang Hotels with Gym

We stayed during Ied Mubarak holiday for 4 days/3 nights in April 2025. We booked 2 connecting rooms for my family (4 persons). I chose this hotel because it has swimming pool and gym, we used to exercise daily. In fact, the gym was closed for long term maintenance. It should be declared and crossed out from the hotel facility so we noticed from beginning, not surprised on site. The rooms at a glance were ok but when we looked to the interior were lousy. The curtain, gordyn, and bed lamps, dirty and stained. My children room has no curtain, so direct sunshine and very hot during the day. The towel seemed already used for years. not soft, looks lousy and the color not pure white as normally hotel towel. Each room provided safety box but no function at all. if you see the direction on the safety box (see the photo), it supposed has red button inside the box but no button at all. The safety box used 4 battery. In my room has only 2 batteries out of 4 and already expired since March 2018. My children' room has 4 battery but also not functioned. the button numbers and keys cant be pressed so we cant keep important and valuable items inside it. The swimming pool were crowded and the water was dirty. the hotel supposed to overall cleaning to the pool due to holiday seasons but the water obviously dirty. The parking lot is low maintenance, dirty, and rubbish everwhere. the Horison Ultima was only 3 years old last December 2024 as I saw from the stickwerck at lobby. The hotel was Star Hotel and changed to Horison Ultima. The parking lot was narrow and limited. For location is ok, near Java Mall. good for morning walk. the hotel staffs were polite and fast response. the amenities for 4* hotel is good enough. the mini fridge in the room is ok as well as the Aircon. If I may advise the management, please take serious attention to the cleanliness and maintenance also room refurbishment to the lousy interior inside as top priority.

Our family so in love with the cleanliness inside the room, but I need to be honest that you really need to change the toilet seat as well to make it perfect combination. Indeed it is cleaned but the yellow and brownie spot is not what we expecting to have during the two nights stay. Other things that also needs solutions during peak period is on lift usage and parking area. It took longer time just to go up and down for breakfast or simply went out to enjoy the city. The only alternative that hotel provides is just emergency stairs even just to go down from lobby to entrance. Would be great if hotel could consider to expand the parking area especially during high and peak seasons.

Nice hotel in Good location, not all floors are operational yet but the maintenance is good.

The hotel location is very convenient and access to amenities such as park, supermarket, mosque are easy. However, crossing the roads is hard because only some got bridge, other you have to brace yourself for some daredevil of crossing the street. Entering the lobby, it’s small and have some weird smell of wet damp - humid unpleasant smell. Your taxi also have to unload fast because no waiting area as the line is only fit for one car. Checking in also easy and straightforward, nice.. The room is clean but not thoroughly as we found some bits of pins and papers, but generally not that damaging. I can ‘close eyes’ on this.. The toilet is clean but “NO PIPE” at the toilet. We prefer toilet with pipe, so that easy for washing after doing ‘business’, if not you have to adjust your sitting for the toilet bidet, not convenient.. no.. no.. so for me i would to avoid this hotel if i have other place that comes with pipe… Many more can be commented, but i reserved it for my inner brain to consumed.. Selamat dan Salam..

Very beautiful place confort entertainment and restaurant are very nice and also location is great
