Pangeran Beach Hotel

breakfast serving is ok

old establishment, refurbishment needed

Nice hotel, excellent staff who were great at communicating and organising things. Nice breakfast too.

Some of the fittings are a little old. Everything works, but just needs a bit of an overhaul.

The room was spacious, the bed was extremely comfortable, and the bathroom was a good size. I had a great night's sleep as the hotel was nice and quiet. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay, and check-in was quick and easy. The complimentary buffet breakfast was the highlight. It mainly catered to Indonesian guests, but there were plenty of Western options too, including bread, croissants, and other breakfast favourites. It was excellent and added great value to the stay. The location was convenient, with shops nearby, and GoJek drivers were always available within a few minutes. The beach is also not far away. I didn't use the swimming pool, but it looked large and well maintained. Overall, I thought the hotel offered excellent value for money.

A few things looked a little worn. I noticed a couple of marks on the pillows, and the mattress looked quite old when I accidentally lifted the sheet, although it was still very comfortable. I also ordered room service and tried three dishes. The salad was good, but the hot meals arrived slightly lukewarm and the overall food quality could have been better. There was also a slight smell of cigarette smoke in the hallway, although my non-smoking room itself was completely smoke-free.

Breakfast serve on traditional Padang food. Balcon with ocean view is the best, i think the only hotel in Padang town whom near by the sea that has balcon face to the ocean view.

After three nite staying the breakfast menu not change much. The bed room had problem with Air Con plumbing hence there was a big leaking cause wet floor in front of bathroom door. Hotel changed the room but with not much hospitality for cause inconvenient. They only offer changing room. Only because i asked than they did serve fruit platter and coffee as complimentary for inconvenient of staying.
