Hotels near Jurug Zoo in Solo

The hotel is located in Jebres area, near KA solo Balapan Station, Thiong Ting's funeral house, Star Cafe, Timlo Sastro, Orion Rot Shop, etc., but no one sells food around the hotel. We stayed there because we were ordered a big family to wander to Thiong Ting. Just entered the lobby area, it was already seen that this is an old hotel, because the atmosphere is gloomy and the air conditioner is less cold. There are mosquitoes in the lobby. The receptionist also lacks a smile/friendly. In front of the lobby there is land for parking vehicles. There was a pool behind the base floor of the hotel, but we didn't have time to check it out. We were given a room on the back mezzanine floor (no rooms 210, 211, 212, dst.). Apparently this is a standard room. The room is narrow, no windows, smells of a slight, not enough room for an extra bed. Wifi is not available in this type of room, and can only access in lobby and restaurant. Because the AC was leaking, we were moved to another room on the 2nd floor (no room 220, 221, dst). The maintenance came pretty quick when complained about the air leak. Apparently this replacement room given was a moderate room (catt: we were not upgraded, but we were given another type of room, because the standard type was full, so we had to pay more). The room is bigger, covered, and not covered. Wifi available in this type of room. The air conditioner is cold, even very cold, maybe the remote key is broken, so it cannot be set/smalled, can only be on/off. There was a TV, coffee maker, and a mini fridge in the room, but we didn't have time to use it. We didn't have time to try the bathroom in the room on the mezzanine, but the one on the second floor, the hot water works well, but there was no shower curtain, so when the shower was splashed throughout the bathroom area. The drainage in the sink is also less smooth. Bath amenities are available: shampo, hand sanitizer (2), shower cap, toothbrush. One of our group's rooms did not smoothly the drainage, so the water was swell. Another guest from our group found cockroaches in their room, and in our own room there were lots of ants, so in the morning we found the cake we brought already full of ants. In the room located in front of the hotel, there is a noise of motorbikes, while in the room behind the hotel, there is a noise of a train passing by. There are two elevators, two units in front, near the lobby, and two units back. The lift works well, just confused, because when given no room 210 dst, we thought it was on the 2nd floor, but it turned out it was on the mezzanine floor, so it was a chance to escape, and there was no information from the reception. We didn't have time to try breakfast at the hotel restaurant, because we had to check out in the morning-up, Sed

Only the AC isn't cold, it's all good. My advice is to order a deluxe room so that it is maximal. the bellboy is very friendly. thanks

If you love really old building hotel. It’s Amazing and really good to have it. The room tiny but clean, and well concept. I book for a night and I get unforgettable staycation. We can really feel staycation on past time. If you looking place where is so Instagramable. It can be the option. Kind Regards,

I was lucky enough to be able to book a room in Ramada at last minute with my fiance, and it was quite a memmorable memmory for us. Thus, please let us give some comprehensive review about our stay. Reception We were greeted amazingly by the front office staff and especially the supevisor, I think it was Mr. Heri, whom accomodated our needs perfectly despite our late check in and requests. But they are all very helpful and accomodating. Room Not much to say really, since our room were in the perfect location and has a balcony which was very relaxing. Not to mention that it was just one step away from the restaurant, please put into consideration that they have a bit spread out villas so it was quite a walk to reach the restaurant. And right next to us was the dummy temple which really enhance the nuances of Solo as one of the cores of Javanese culture. Although the AC wasn't really cooling, but it was hardly a deal breaker since Solo still has a cool weather especially during the rainy season. Restaurant Dinner We had a chance to try the 'Buka Puasa' dinner buffet, since we came during the Ramadan which means that most of Indonesian were fasting and they have a kind of festivities for breaking their fast each evening. However it was quite a mess on this side. The F&B clearly wasn't ready to clear up the challenges againts bunch of hungry people. So there were a lot of missing items from the buffet, such as cutleries and ice cream which my fiance expected very much, hey, we're fasting too! Haha. And the service staff couldn't quite keep up with the pace of the masses. Although I need to mention that some of the staff, the one that wear a glasses, tried to helped us so much and gave us the best possible table during the circumstances. But overall, there are rooms for improvement. Breakfast This is quite amazing actually, considering that there was only one service guy in charge for the whole time. The vibe was quite, maybe because we were there during the off season haha, but he could take care almost all of our requests amazingly. Eventhough we did request a lot of things, including towells for swimming which wasn't ready at the poolside. It's just a shame that I forgot to ask his name so I can't write it here as a recommendation. Whoever you are, I'm sorry mas bro. Keep up the good work! Public facilities Ramada surprisingly has a bunch of facilities to enjoy for the guests. Started with bike which free to use within the hotel complex, although some of the bike seems quite worn out pehaps due to exposed to the rain, swimming pool, billiard table which I can't try yet maybe next time, and the amazing garden! Oh! And they also have a gymnastic for the guests and one more private pool next to it. Howeve this pool is quite lacking in maintenance compared to the main pool So maybe we could call in advance before using this one. Overall, there are room for improvements especially on The F&B side. But it was quite an enjoyable stay since the ho

After driving for more than 10 hours from Bali, we arrived in Solo at Loji Hotel around 4pm by that time. No security available to give us some instructions where we can park, eventhough we saw 2 man sitting at the security office at front. We have to call them very loud to show us where we can park our car. Coz by that time the parking lot was full. We were expecting get a good service, nice room, because we pay IDR 534.649/night with breakfast for Deluxe room. We stay here on the 26th December 2019 and check out on the 27th December 2019. Actually we want to extend the room, but we changes our mind after overnight here with uncomfortable feeling. The problem was : 1. They asking us, do we need a smoking room, we said yes please. We were expecting a balcony or at least we can open the window, but at the end, the smoking room not have any window or balcony for smoking. 2. The AC are so noisy all day long and also the AC is leaking very bad until makes our bag get wet, coz we put underneath the AC. 3. The fan in the bathroom wasn't work well. And very very noisy! 4. The shower looks like never get cleaned for many years. Full of crust. 5. The bathroom is a bit smell and not have a good circulation. 6. We found a blood stain on the blanket, so we asking to changes the cover or blanket. The good point is, the breakfast is nice. That's all. We coming here to Java Island actually to do an inspection, what's the Island looks like. How clean and comfortable are the accomodation here. Coz we have a tour and service. We have to know all the standard service here before we give any recommendations or bring our customers to come here. And we found a very expensive hotel with a low service. In Bali, the hotel with this price, the service, the room are way nicer. I don't know how the standard service in Java. So far the city that we have visited in Java, has very low hotel standard but they ask for 5 star hotel price. Amazing right. If Loji Hotel can upgrade their service level to be better than now, I will recommend this hotel. But for now, we are sorry, this hotel is not recommended. Hopefully the Manager read all the review and do some maintenance also the service. Thank you.

Solia Hotel's location is quite strategic, near Solo Balapan train station, food scene and easy to get anywhere from there. Check-in process wasn't smooth, but it is totally understandable because the hotel was fully booked and many guests came at the same time. But hopefully the management can anticipate this and do better in the next holiday season. The lobby is a beautiful Javanese old building, pleasantly scented, the staffs were friendly and helpful. The rooms are located on the newer building on the back. They provide traditional beverages for welcome drinks. The room was clean, water and AC worked well. Bed and pillow were comfortable although there were some stains and holes on the bedsheets. Door handles of balcony almost broke because of its unusual way to open and close (though the management has stuck the instructions on the door). This hotel is recommended for those whose in budget and need centrally located hotel.

This my second stay in last 2 months, just havent got chance to wrote some review. We stay for 2 nights on each occasions, i bring my wife, 3 kids below 9 and my mom. We book executive room, which has small livinv room with couch. Good room size, clean, bright, comfy bed and couch (can accomodate for 1 adult to sleep), but Pillow is too hard so i ask for replacement. Bathroom was also clean and has nice ambience, aminity was okay. Check in and check out process was fast and efficient, staff was kind and attentive. Swimming pool size was good, no slides etc but its okay. I tried their room delivery bfast and buffet. Buffet serve various menu but taste wise is average. In room dining serve good portion and menu variety (i choose american breakfast). The only minus point is locations, surrounded by bus and train station in bit strander area so we need car to reach nearest restaurant or supermarket. But it should be not a problem if you brought car. To conclude everythung, we love our stay in this hotel and it become our favorite in Solo. We usually stayed in Alila but now we prefer Swisbel hotel.

For the first time that im felt very uncomfortable staying at the hotel. First, when you arrived at the hotel, there is no parking lot for all the hotel customer, security only give you direction to park beside the hotel but you should find the parking lot by yourself, and when you want to use your car which is located deep inside parking lot, the security too lazy to help you getting your car out. The bed sheet is stinky and full of dirt. The room service doesnt wait for you to get to the elevator, instead they are going first and you as the hotel customer have to wait another elevator to arrived. Ah, the lobby and almost every corridor of the hotel is too dim.

I really love this hotel. The ambience is totally Javanese. The location is really strategic. The only minus is the breakfast variation. I think the hotel, should provide more local traditional dishes so that they will in line with the hotel theme

The rooms are quite spacious, clean, the service is also good. There are lots of places to eat around the hotel. The minus is only 1, the room is not soundproof, noise from the next room or corridor enters the room.
