Find the Cheap Sawahan Hotels

Good hotel, friendly staff, strategic location

This was my second time staying in Ibis Tidar Surabaya. This time I stayed with my colleague for almost a week. Room could adequately accommodating for 2 person. Bathroom quite spacious for Ibis family. I love their bathroom, it was unlike other Ibis that I have stayed, that it feels you're taking a shower in a capsule. The flat TV was super big! Inside the room you will get a mini fridge to keep your beverages chilled. You will have a safe deposit box to keep your valuable things. The aircon is clean and cold, the hot water also nice. One of the best element of this hotel is ... their breakfast! Super love! Variety was okay but do not under estimate the taste! Best breakfast ever for Ibis Family! They change menu day by day and never failed me. I love to sip their hot tea in the morning by the window with the sunlight. Location wise is perfect if you need to stroll around Tunjungan Plaza area. It is easy as well to find meal outside the hotel. Just take a 5 mins walk and you will find a street full of food! Since the lobby drop off is quite small, tell you cab driver to drop you by the street, you could easily walk though the left pedestrian provided by the hotel ;)

Seriously recommend it once. The front desk is very friendly, especially the security guard hehe. The room is clean

Acceptable standard as a HIExpress. Room is average size, bathroom a little small and towels looking a little tired. Got a lousy view though, looking out to a roof with ladder for workers to climb to the water tank. Had to draw the curtain most of the time. Breakfast was better than the usual grab-and-go, which they also provide beside the buffet spread. Customer service from the staff was good. All very polite. Laundry facilities was pay per use. Some meeting rooms available. Easy to call ride hailing.

Maxone is a group of hotels in local Indonesia brand. It is chic,simple and in minimalist style. Suitable for youngster that like effective space concept in the design. The hotel has same design in the whole Indonesia. I stayed at this inexpensive hotel for three nights and it was great. The location is in the center with Tunjungan Plaza huge mall just five minutes walk. A lot of eateries nearby. Tidar road is not a big road but also busy with traffic. The lobby is not huge but have space to sit. The hotel is compact and the lighting is not too bright. There is free wifi although not great. The bathroom is small and the shower cubicle has fold-able chair to sit while having rain shower. Toilet amenities is complete with tooth brush, comb, ear cotton etc. Free coffee kettle and two bottles of complimentary water everyday. As you have the option for breakfast as I don't take it then I can't comment about the taste. At 7th floor there is a sky lounge to enjoy drinks and life music during dusk until midnight. Considering the location and price this is the best option to stay at Maxone Hotel during your stay at Surabaya. Public transportation is not really happen in Surabaya, but you can use the environment friendly ”Suroboyo Bus” (pay by exchanging used plastic bottle). This bus will stop in front of JW Marriott hotel then walk straight through the traffic light and you will arrive at Maxone hotel.

Was lucky enough to be upgraded to Executive Club for my 14 night stay and must admit we made the most of it. Breakfast cooked to order, afternoon tea, 6pm wine and great choice of cooked eats, cheese, cakes/puddings etc which meant we didn't need to go for dinner. Room was good with modern tv with lots of channels and enabling smartview from mobile/tablet (internet was strong throughout hotel). Bathroom was great with fantastic showers and a bathtub which filled quickly. Bed was huge and comfortable, blackout curtains and subtle lighting to enable sleep at any time and aircon worked perfectly and quietly. 3 restaurants on site for the odd night we fancied straying from the executive lounge. Restaurants were a little expensive perhaps but it's a 5 star hotel so to be expected. Pros: Good rooms, strong internet, great showers, Executive Club - OUTSTANDING staff/customer service in all areas of hotel and unbelievably charming staff. Cons: Desperados bar in the basement had good live music but was very disappointing (best avoided unless you are in a group).

Location 5/5, Service 5/5, Cleanliness 5/5, Amenities 5/5.

Totally unprofessional management. I arrived on a Saturday night after having notified them about my late arrival. I had a confirmed and paid booking with agoda, but to my surprise the hotel was full. They didn't care at all that I had this confirmed booking. Obviously a booking with agoda doesn't mean a thing. Agoda 'graciously' offered me a voucher of $1 for the inconvenience, but still does business with these opportunistic guys. It tells me that both parties don't care about the wellbeing of their clients at all and don't respect done deals.

Good cheap hotel option for a short stay , or probably for a solo trip. Location is a bit far from the newer development but still good enough. Also it's really near the train station.
