Hotels near Great Mosque of Central Java

Here is the deal. We paid about 24 USD per night for a couple. The hotel is situated in a complex where you have access to supermarket, a modern cafe bistro, and sushi. Also there are about 4-5 atm machines just outside the hotel. It is very convenient. Please don't forget that this is a budget hotel, so I am rating based on the value price. The room was very comfortable, with a desk, and clean shower. Internet is slow, but that is everywhere in Indonesia. The breakfast is not simple (maybe for asians), but we got a buffet with choice of juice/coffee we also had at least 4 dishes available (fried rice, fried noodle, chicken, and 2 types of soup) on top you can order your eggs any way you want, for me that is not a simple breakfast, it is awesome ! I definitely recommend for the price and value. You probably won't find anything better at that price.

Nice location since it is located in the city center area and also within walking distance to the main place of interest in Semarang

This is a new hotel, they haven't even finished the remediation work, but its pretty good and it seems to set a new standard for Semarang. Bed and pillows(embroidered 'soft' and 'firm' extremely comfortable, the room servicing and standard very good. However, I want to be constructive and say, the staff needs to have more training in tourist information. They do not have a map readily available at reception with points of interest. The relationships the hotel has with reputable taxi companies could mean you spend more than you need - I think they need to be able to provide some options. This is not a comment on the staff themselves, because they were all extremely attractive in every way, wanting to help and very discrete in their approaches, they are extremely well-mannered. I did not find a local Tourism Information office which would have backed up the excellent intentions of the staff here. Congratulations though there are small shortfallings, and for business travellers perhaps the number of children in the hotel could be a downside, but I think this place will finds its level and hopefully the great staff will learn more and be propelled forward in generating the best international standard of hotel. Semarang and Jepara are very strong manufacturing centres for international supply, so the people who come through this hotel will have very high standards, I hope my comments are constructive for the management to equip the staff in the best possible way to service

Hotel Is good.The Rates we got from EXPEDIA Is THE BEST RATES. The Service From The Restaurant At The Hotel Was Fabulous,The Food Is Very Good And Very Good Service At The Executive Lounge. Very Disappointed With The Public Relationship Desk as No One Ever At That Table To Help Find Things And To Tell Us About Anything When We Need To Find Things Or Go Around ...

We stayed at the Ibis Semarang Simpang Lima for 2 nights in July 2010. It is in a convenient location adjacent to a nice mall with a convenient food court in the basement. The hotel had free cable connection for your computer and it was great. The staff was so friendly and helpful especially the restaurant/bar staff. Had a great world cup spread and 2 big screens. Couldn't find better for the price and would stay there again.

the staff are courteous, helpful and approachable and the room is clean and spacious.
