We enjoyed our stay at Royal Regantris Cendana. They made a Honeymoon decoration for us and the room provided was nice and quiet as requested (as we were going to Bromo and need to sleep during the afternoon to start the trip at midnight). AC work perfectly, the cleaning was good and there were lots of amenities.
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.
The hotel is great since it’s still new, so everything looks neat and clean. The room is spacious, and I especially loved the bed. The TV is already equipped with Google TV, and the cable channels are complete too. All the rooms are on the upper floors, so the view of Surabaya skyscrapers are really nice. I didn’t try the breakfast, and there wasn’t any room service menu in the room, so I can’t say anything about the food. The only downside is there’s no minimarket nearby. The Praxis building is pretty empty at the moment, just two restaurants and a coffee shop. Overall, this hotel is way better than the five-star Whiz Luxe Spazio Surabaya, and I really enjoyed my stay here, especially being one of the first guests.
CCarman Chewexceeded expectations in all regards.
from the main lobby to the toilets, from the rooms to the animal pens - all super clean, a massive respite from mosquito-infested accomodations the few days prior.
the receptionists were all very friendly, well-versed in both bahasa indo and english; the driver kindly helped us find somewhere to buy feed for the animals and take photos at the entrance; the concierge was also very pro-active and the cleaners were constantly seen mopping.
and the facilities are undoubtedly one of a kind. the view from the balcony were of the animals happily skipping around, not like some other safari accommodations where the animals are either kept in too small fences or too far away. every store was well stocked with water dispensers of different temperatures. the animal feeding was also easy to purchase from the counter. only pity is that we were not aware that the breakfast with giraffe needed booking beforehand, but honestly you can feed the giraffes for cheaper at the Taman Safari Prigen safari adventure. breakfast for humans otherwise had a good spread, including some humorously named items. there is also a free and convenient shuttle service that takes you to and from baobab to the safari area, just have to ask the concierge.
overall 10/10 will visit again.
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.
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.
