5-Star Hotels in East Java, Indonesia

This was our second time staying at this hotel, and once again it exceeded our expectations in the best possible way. We arrived shortly after 12pm, fully prepared to leave our bags and wander around until the standard 3pm check-in time. To our pleasant surprise, the team offered us an early check-in without hesitation — a gesture that felt like an unexpected upgrade to our entire day. It’s the little things that truly make a big difference. We stayed in a Standard Deluxe room, and it was more than spacious enough for the both of us. Comfortable, clean, and well-maintained, it provided exactly the kind of restful environment we needed. It’s always a good sign when you enter the room and immediately feel like you can take a nap without questioning your life choices. Breakfast was another highlight of our stay. The spread was impressive, offering a good mix of local dishes, international options, and even Japanese selections. From savoury bites to sweet treats, there was something for every mood and every appetite. If breakfast is the “make or break” of a hotel stay, then this hotel definitely understood the assignment. I would also like to give a special mention to Rusli at the reception. His warm hospitality and professionalism helped set the tone for our stay right from the moment we stepped in. Another heartfelt shout-out goes to Igrima from the restaurant. Although she is still a trainee, her dedication, attentiveness, and genuine passion for service shone through clearly. She handled her duties with the confidence of someone who has worked in the industry for years — a true rising star in the team. Overall, our stay was memorable, comfortable, and pleasantly seamless. With consistent service and thoughtful touches like these, I’m confident that our third stay is not just likely — it’s inevitable. We’ll definitely be back again!

Cleanliness was good. There are plenty of USB ports (about six in total), including an international power plug conveniently located next to the bed, with the rest being local plugs. The only issue I encountered was the low water pressure in the shower. It would be great if the hotel could improve this.

Westin Surabaya is a beautiful property with gorgeous views and amenities and impeccable service to match. The pool and surrounds are pleasant for swimming. The Club room is very comfortable, quiet and feels fresh all round. The heavenly bed is such a delight to sleep in. The Club lounge is one of the most outstanding hotel lounges I have frequented. The views from the 39th floor are divine whether day or night. Service levels in the Club lounge are impeccable from each and every staff member.. so welcoming, professional with beautiful hospitality. Food selection, drinks and comfort all round. Nila and all of her lovely colleagues are truly at an inspiring level of excellence.

I really need to complain about the cleanliness. This hotel had four pillows for two beds, and one of them actually had urine stains on it! It smelled strongly of urine. I went to the front desk to ask for a replacement, but it never came, so I just threw it on the floor – it was unusable! Also, the water quality at the hotel was really bad. I brought my own filter faucet, and the filter element ended up black. I'm so glad I used it! They saw I was staying with a child for two nights, but didn't offer any extra slippers or toothbrushes, which other hotels usually do proactively. Furthermore, our room was on the 7th floor, and it happened to be a Sunday. From 4 or 5 AM, there were prayers, which were extremely loud and made it impossible to sleep. I asked the front desk to change rooms, but they said all the suitable rooms were full and there was nothing they could do. In the end, we had to endure it for two nights. 😓 On the positive side, the hotel's buffet was quite good. There were also some local specialty snacks that I tried. And the swimming pool was an infinity pool with a nice view. However, it was mostly local children swimming, so the adults didn't go in. The gym was also very well-equipped. It was very convenient and close to the largest shopping mall in Surabaya. Downstairs was also a pedestrian street. After dark, there were many places to eat, as well as cafes and bars. It was a nice area to explore. Overall, it was barely acceptable, but some basic standards should be upheld. Urine stains on a pillow are simply unacceptable; it definitely means the pillowcase wasn't changed! I hope the hotel can improve.

Indonesia offers relatively affordable prices, which allows us to enjoy such a nice hotel without spending too much. With a shopping mall right downstairs for convenience, we really wish we could stay longer if time permits.

Good view and good service. Central city of surabaya place. Cheap price with awesome facilities. The best

We arrived during Chinese New Year and got a free upgrade to a spacious family suite. We even cooked our own New Year's Eve dinner and made dumplings because the kitchen was so well-equipped! I was so happy! We celebrated Chinese New Year while traveling! It felt just like home! Absolutely wonderful!

After visiting the volcanoes and waterfalls, we took a break in Surabaya and stayed at this hotel. From the moment we walked in, we kept exclaiming how beautiful it was! Even though it's old, it has a beautiful historical charm and a great vibe. My husband said he wants to stay in hotels like this from now on – it was excellent. The location is also very convenient, right in the city center, making it easy to explore and find places to eat.

Real resort feel from the moment we step foot on the property. While the design may be a bit dated, the rooms are large and facilities in the resort is good. we especially like the restaurants we had our breakfast and dinner. I also enjoyed the hot and cold pools and the sauna in the resort.

It's a good and nice hotel Very good service as well as nice breakfast. The only downside is the stains on the linen. The housekeeping staff need to pay more attention to this matter.
