We stayed there for 1 night going home from our Malang trip. Hubby was not really sure in the beginning since it looked old, worried that it would not be clean enough, but we tried it anyway. Turns out the hotel is quite ok and comfortable. Surprisingly the breakfast is good. If we go to Surabaya we will consider to... More

Since I was new in Surabaya, I never thought that ELMI building is actually ELMI and it is a hotel because there are so many trees without any sign on the name of the hotel that we can see from the street. The exterior and interior of the hotel shows that this hotel was build maybe around 70s or 80s.... More

Not recommended. Very old. Pest issues. You can get much better hotels in Surabaya for the same price. The staff is polite n helpful. They have a nice pool. The bar has an happy hour and is cheap. I stayed for two nights and moved to another hotel.

I spent 5 days at surabaya in January 2013 with my family. After two nights at a 3stars hotel, we decided to find another hotel just to feel different area of the city. Then we choose elmi for another 3stars hotel. We walk down from gubernur suryo street and turn right to panglima sudirman street. This street is very green... More

I chose to stay in this hotel because its location is pretty close to the concert building I want to look at. And, it has a pool, though I didn't use it eventually, since its location is pretty far from our room. Our room has view to the surrounding, including the parking lane and the road beneath. Not extra ordinary,... More

This was a bit of an odd experience. The staff were to a person helpful and welcoming and check in fine. The lift is more like a factory elevator worth just metal uncovered sides. The room was fine but 30 years out of date. The food was a disappointment after reading some good reviews. The swimming pool is absolutely massive... More
