LOOK NO FURTHER! ARISTA IS THE BEST IN PALEMBANG!
Arista Hotel in Palembang exceeded my expectations in every aspect. The lobby welcomes you with grandeur, the room offers ample space and a convenient work table. The cozy bed ensures a comfortable stay, complemented by a rejuvenating rainwater shower in the impressive bathroom. Fast and efficient check-in/check-out processes streamline the experience. One standout feature is the delightful breakfast spread, featuring a variety of local delicacies. The proximity to ICON mall adds to its appeal, but caution is advised when crossing due to the lack of traffic lights. Overall, Arista Hotel has my highest recommendation as the best choice in Palembang.

Laundry never returned!
I paid for the express service to wash my clothes, it indicates to get them back in 3 hours. I checked out two days later and did not manage to get them back. The hotel staff: `Eka from the Front Office Department`` reached out afterward, send me a picture of the package, and was going to charge me to send them back to my home address. It has been a month now, the clothes still did not arrive and the WhatsApp number got silent. VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

Good stay
Love the size of the tub! Thanks for the upgrade. The service from breakfast F&B staff were better than Front Office, especially their English proficiency. Housekeeping was polite and provided good service. Breakfast spread was good, but could improve on taste and heating mechanism. The same processed juice was prepared for breakfast, yet the water to cordial juice ratio was not the same, as we noticed that the juice on the second day was more sour. Hotel management should think of safety for staff who Work at Height. Ladder was used from 1st floor to 2nd floor when changing lobby curtain. 2 staff hold the ladder at each floor while the 3rd staff climb to the ceiling, no safety boots nor safety harness was used. Hotel is beside a new mall, just be courageous enough to cross the busy road. Easy to catch Grab to go anywhere.

Great service from Hotel staffs, Friendly and helpful. The room is clean. Good spread of breakfast choices with many local delights! The hotel provide free wifi for only 3 devices but the staff is kind enough to increase the no of devices for me.

Excellent service! They were very professional
I give two thumbs up for the Concierge staffs! Very friendly and attentive. About the rooms.. Some have been renovated but some are still old rooms. There are renovation construction in progress so be mindful of the noises.. They said the construction will stop at 5pm, but it was not.. I can still hear the noises up to 6 or 7pm. Quite disturbing. There was something wrong with the shower water too.. I couldn't set it up to warm. It was either too hot or cold. They need to fix that water heater.

Nice and Clean
The hotel was okay considering the area it was located in. Not much around the hotel to see, but then again, not much in the city to write about. The room was nice and clean though and breakfast was good.

Best hotel in Palembang!
Directly across from new mall Palembang Icon (free shuttle service to and from mall offered, as hotel is located on a busy street). Building in great condition, awesome pool and gym, rooms were very nice, lots of breakfast options, and friendly staff. The restaurant is also great. Love this hotel!

도보 5분거리 쇼핑센터가 있는 점이 장점이며, 숙박 또한 무난하며 대체적으로 편안한 편입니다. 1층에 있는 중국 레스토랑 및 이탈리안 레스토랑 또한 무난합니다. 2박 정도 숙박하시기에 편안한 편입니다.

Konf reservasi kurang ok, namun ketika masuk puas.
Awalnya susah konfirmasi ke bag reservasi karena menurut pihak hotel email dari Hotels.com belum masuk. namun setelah email dan telp beberapa kali untuk konfirmasi ke pihak EAM The Arista, maka semuanya clear. Dan ketika sampai hotel ternyata dapat kamar duluxe yang luas dan melegakan. apalagi ketika breakfast. Menunya sangat banyak baik menu eropa maupun tradisional, makanan maupun minuman. terkesan dengan ragam juice yang sangat banyak dan asli dan fresh dari buah segar bukan pabrikan.Syukur deh puas.

ロケーション、設備はいいがレストランは不満残る。 5スターを望んだら 期待外れ
初のパレンバン行き。ネットで最もよさそうなホテルを選択。 パレンバンは歴史に残る古い都市、伝統家屋を見て回る旅だったが、ホテルは新しい設備の ところを選んだ。部屋のつくりも機能的でよい。だが24時間オープンのホテル内レストランは 味がよくない。スタッフが勧める日本のラーメンを注文したが、ひどかった。スープがまるで だめ。パンも固くてまずい。サラダも品質が落ちる。外国のお客の比率が低いからなのか、それにしても国際基準になっていない。
