Is een goede keuze geweest
Pros:

Het hotel bevindt zich in een prachtig historisch pand. Al het personeel was vriendelijk en behulpzaam, de service was fantastisch. De kamer met balkon is ruim, goed bed en prima douche. Er is een waterkoker en koelkast aanwezig. Wifi werkt goed.
Het restaurant is goed en het ontbijt zeer uitgebreid. Ook Italiaans restaurant aanwezig, heerlijk gegeten.
Op loopafstand enkele restaurants

Cons:

Het uitzicht vanaf mijn balkon was wat beplanting en daarachter een muur.

A Gem in Malang with Fantastic Staff
Pros:

​The Shalimar continues to be one of the best places to stay in Malang if you appreciate history and great service. The rooms are clean and the ambiance is very relaxing.

​A huge thank you to the team members who looked after me: Mr. Fatwa for a warm welcome at check-in, Mrs. Sherly for making my departure seamless, and Mrs. Ami at the restaurant for her kind and polite service. It’s the people here who truly make the stay memorable. I will definitely be back!

Amazing stay!
Pros:

This hotels is in a fantastic location and offers comfort with a beautiful and calm decor. The staff were very welcoming snd always very friendly.
The room was elegsntly decorated,spacious and light. The bed was very comfortable and we rested well. The bathroom had a great shower too. It was very quiet at night.
The hotel has 2 restaurants, we only tried their Italian themed restaurant which we liked very much. It has a 'secret speakeasy bar' behind some shelves. Beware it is a smoking bar so we didn't enjoy it that much as it was very uncomfortable and left after one cocktail. The hotel has also an Indonesian restaurant but we didn't try it. The pool is beautiful and there is a gym on site too as well as a coffee shop.
We loved the spa and had an amazing massage and the nail salon was great too. We loved this hotel and would come back

Cons:

The only thing we didn't like was the smoking secret bar. The rest was perfect
