Hotel Savoy Homann Bandung

Went here with my GF, based on all the reviews and the history of the building. 150 +/- years of history is something you want to see with your own eyes.||The grandeur of this ones majestic hotel is still possible to see from the outside, but from the inside, the soul has left this beautiful building with all it's history. It feels dead inside. It was just us having dinner. Just some old guys having cigarettes in the smoking area.||They sell a western concept, but stopped selling alcohol a few years back. The food was quite ok, but not fitting this majestic building. The owners of the Bidakara group really need to visit this place and consider new management.||Based on recent other reviews, I'm not alone in this.||Instead of alcohol, they have a lot of other drinking variaties, only thing is that a lot of the choices on the menu were not available. I requested a ginger ale, but this was finished. Just like I was reading in another review. Perhaps renew the menu?||I don't recommend to visit this place if you are from the West.

We went to Bandung with Whoosh, stayed 2 nights at this historic hotel and booked the Homann Family Suite. Pleasantly surprised with the adorable welcome package consisting of fruit, cake, and a card. Apparently famous world leaders and celebrities stayed in our suite, to include Indonesia's first president, Soekarno, Zhou Enlai, and Charlie Chaplin! The views from the suite were nice. Wish the suite is more sound-proof, as it can get a bit noisy during weekend. As expected from an older hotel, some things in the suite were dated and/or need fixing. The lobby area was nicely renovated. Some parts of the hotel are kept authentic, original, and nostalgic. Breakfast was lovely, with mostly Indonesian dishes and some continental. During weekend, the Batavia Cafe restaurant can be fun, as they have karaoke and live music. Overall it was a memorable trip and stay.

We only went to eat having read somewhere that the “rijsttafel” was excellent. Upon arrival in the beautiful art-deco building we were informed that the “rijsttafel” dish was for minimum of 5persons. Decided to go for the a la carte as didn’t feel right ordering & paying for a 5person spread for the 2 of us. ||The garden restaurant is beautiful but was completely empty at 19.30. In fact the entire hotel was dubiously empty: lots of uniforms wandering about, but no customers. ||Drinks saga: We sat down and tried to order a beer & wine: turns out to be an Islamic no-alcohol-served place. Would have liked to have known that in advance! ||No worries, my wife ordered a ginger ale and I ordered a soda water. 10mins later they came to say there was no ginger ale. So changed order to tonic water. They brought 2 cans of tonic. Hm. Halfway through the meal we ordered 2 more tonics as I had given up on the soda water idea and thought this was simpler for them. After considerable time they came to say there was no more tonic!.Apparently we had drunk the last two cans haha. So back to soda water then which only arrived after asking twice. ||The meal: considering the fact that there were now just 4 customers in the entire restaurant (an other couple had arrived) our meal to ages. It was a disappointment. I had duck goreng. That half-bird was deep fried and had acquired a tough exoskeleton. We were only given a spoon & fork so getting any meat off the bones was a challenge. Gave up and asked for a knife. Gave up and pushed the fossilised bird aside and ate the rice & sambal. ||All-in-all a very odd experience. I cannot understand how this once-glorious but now very much bygone place gets such high reviews!

The location was great, walking distance from Braga street. The personnel was very friendly and the room was okay. The breakfast was great. We missed the historical atmosphere, the hotel is more a business hotel.

The service started with miss Sielvi who professionally handled our reservation. When we arrived by Sprinter Bus from Jakarta with Guests from Holland. We got checked into our rooms and had a good night sleep. The breakfast service by Pak Sukirman and his manager was perfect and soo friendly, also all other staff worked professional and made all food delicious. The ambiance of the Hotel is special and my 6 guests from Holland really enjoyed their 3 night stay. Before i stayed with my parents and family and friends at Savoy Homann. We hope to be back agqin as usual our 2nd home in Bandung! Terima kasih! Sqlqm hormat, Blanche PHZ and Family Richard &Esme Lens, Jeffrey Lens & Erin, Carlo Lens & Anouk. Tot ziens.

A really nice hotel with a prime location right in the heart of Bandung. The staff are super friendly, the rooms are spacious, and the indoor heated pool is just perfect for Bandung’s cool weather. Plus, the price is totally reasonable

Hotel Savoy Homan🫶The location, the staff and the lobby dining areas are wonderful. near to Braga Street, making it easy to explore the city's historical and modern attractions.The vibrant nightlife,cozy cafes,and artistic street performances.😞Unfortunately, the overall condition of the hotel rooms left much to be desired. The bedrooms felt dated and shabby, lacking the comfort and upkeep you'd expect. The bathroom was particularly disappointing, clearly in need of a full refurbishment. Even the corridors were grubby, which didn’t leave a good first impression. A serious refresh throughout the property is necessary to bring it up to standard.

“The staff at Savoy Homan Hotel are exceptionally friendly, the hotel is clean, and the breakfast dishes are all delicious. Another advantage of this hotel is that it is one of Bandung’s heritage landmarks — the building was used during the Asian-African Conference. Around the hotel, there are also many historic buildings worth visiting, all within walking distance.”
