The Receptions not really friendly, but the other staffs are really helpfull. The breakfeast was great, but the pool is cold, maybe it will be perfect if the pool come with warm water. The picture of ballerina in the room and hall make the ambience little bit spooky.
Overall OK, good location, easy access & so many cafe nearby. Even the breakfast also so good like so many local foods that can try. Just one thing no iron inside the room & asking to send iron to room they just take note but not send the iron .
FFarrelLocation is excellent, right smackdab in the middle of Surabaya's tourist center, the Old City or ”Kota Lama”. Cleanliness wise its okay, the bedsheets is the only thing that needs more cleaning. Service is excellent. And facilities wise, the only thing lacking is a hairdryer.
AAlex88Location wise is debatable as you need to see what tour itinerary is.
Because the best location would be central.
But overall its a rather decent hotel
Not a really impressive breakfast but it can get by.
Would not say its worth it.
But the overall vibe of the hotel is pretty good
FFrederiko David MartanStaying at Shangri-La Surabaya was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The service was warm and professional — every staff member went above and beyond to make sure we felt welcome and well taken care of.
The room was spacious, clean, and elegantly furnished with a perfect balance of comfort and luxury. I especially appreciated the plush bedding and thoughtful amenities. The view from the room was also a plus, offering a peaceful cityscape that felt relaxing after a long day.
Breakfast was a highlight — the variety was impressive, from local Indonesian favorites to Western and Asian dishes. The pool area and lush garden surroundings made it easy to forget you were in the middle of a busy city.
Location-wise, it's conveniently close to malls, restaurants, and main roads, yet the hotel itself feels like a serene escape.
Would definitely recommend Shangri-La Surabaya to anyone looking for a five-star experience with genuine hospitality.
CCiauciauHotel’s ambience is relaxing. Ocean is at the hotel’s backyard with huge greeneries, coconut trees, and simply beautiful.
Breakfast spread is not bad, the taste is so so. Swimming pool is infinity style and quite big. There is also gym in the hotel.
Room is small, bed is only 100 x 200 for twin. Separate toilet and shower room which size is in the smallish end. Balcony is quite big so you could sit down and enjoy reading. If you want to go with family, book enough room as there is no extra bed except in suites (sofa bed style).
As it is near the ocean, it could be windy.
You need car/transport to go around as it is not exactly in the city centre.
Good place to relax if you happen to be in East Java.
NNorhaslindaThe staff were very polite and eager to offer assistance. Location of hotel was near to restaurants. Breakfast was very delicious and the variety of food was excellent. Staff was kind to pack for us breakfast on our 1st day as we need to leave early for the Bromo sunrise tour. Will definitely recommend this hotel for their excellent service.
