Kotta Hotel Semarang

location is perfect, and room is spacious, excelent services

Emerging in the middle of perfection, spicing up the classics with its brutalist architecture & inspiring contemporary design, mixed with local arts & culture, complemented with comforting foods & thoughtful service. I woke up from my bed with a whole new atmosphere. From the window I can see the sun starts bathing the European style buildings around. Pigeons flew past a park, written as Taman Srigunting, which I think I had to pay a visit later. But before that, I knew I had to get some coffee, thankfully they provided a coffee drip sachet in the room, complete with the water heater & cups. I am ready to brew.

Actually, I’m still here till tmrw and I wish I could stay longer! Saw this Hotel two years ago, when it’s just open. I swear to myself that I will one day stay here, when I return to Semarang, and I did. Lemme tell you, I’m more than statisfied! This hotel is really really cute and well designed! It is a treat to a sore eyes, really. From the lobby to the room, everywhere is very aesthetically pleasing. The room is on the smaller side, but to be expected for a smart hotel. But it doesn’t feel packed, due to the layout. Im in room 320 and everything works perfectly. And the view is straight to the magnificent Blenduk Church! The staffs are very nice and helpful. The food at Cemil Dining is great! You have to try their Nasi Goreng Kecombrang! Yummy! And last but definitely not least, The Location is right in the middle of the Old Town Semaranf, right in between of Gereja Blenduk and the famous Spiegel Bar and Restaurant. There are a mini market, literally across the street and plenty other restaurants and cafes within walking distance. And it is 5 minutes drive from Semarang’s main train station. I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone planning to go to Semarang! Oh they do have Suite Room, but when I book, sadly it wasn’t available. Maybe next time!
