Top Semarang Hotel Reviews

ibis Semarang Simpang Lima

8/10 Good
"Great staff—housekeeping, front desk, restaurant, porters—all really good at their jobs. Semarang being a fairly big city, you can’t get an ideal location for sightseeing, but the hotel is probably as good as it gets. Two big malls very close by, Simpang Lima just a minute away, and clean sidewalks to stroll. The breakfast is plentiful and good. Recommended hotel, for sure."
