[Review] Ammi Hotel at Cepu

[Review] Ammi Hotel at Cepu - Cepu, a city that is familiar to most people in Indonesia. It very popular with abundant natural resources such as Oil and Gas, and attracting well-known oil company ExxonMobil, even though it’s located in Bojonegoro, precisely in Banyu Urip. Whereas the city has a very hot weather, it just a small town sub-district with Blora district.

Cepu has opened up jobs for local residents and many expatriates come to the city, make it crowded. we can find a variety of culinary like Pecel Bu Pomo, Lontong Kapuan Pak Pangat and Tahu Lontong Bu Sabar make it more colourful. Cepu also has a five-star hotel that is Ammi Hotel.

I always making vacation plans to Cepu when long weekend, like this time coincides with the holiday of Eid al-Adha for 3 days. I was fortunate when when in the way to Cepu, I got an invitation from Ms Indah Lestari as a Cluster Sales Executive to see all the luxuries facilities and restaurant in Ammi hotel.

Ammi Hotel is a network group of Samali Hotels, When I entered into the Hotel, I was amazed with the concept of building such a hotel Majapahit Surabaya. I seemed to dejavu with "Lawang Sewu" which has the charm of 1000 doors. Ammi hotel offers a classic modern building with dozens of windows that looks slightly old-fashioned, but this hotel is a new hotel recently completed in 2014 with the concept of Europe.

Some facilities including the adult pool and children, fitness, Lounge Tea Tree, Jati Restaurant, conference room, wedding packages and locations for photo prewedding.

Types of Hotel Room

There are Deluxe Room, Executive Room, Ammi Suite and Samali Suite. In the Ammi Suite is dominated by orange, brown and white elegant colors. There is a work space, mini bar, personal safe, television with satellite broadcasting and fast WiFi Internet. Bathroom filled up with bath up, toileteries, hair dryer, towels, and shower. There is also a balcony that had doors to view the surrounding green landscape.

Executive room has a room that is smaller than the executive room which is 36 square meters, but equally comfortable. Room only difference lies in the absence of work space and bath up in the bathroom. Instead remain desk chairs and shower in the bathroom. One more rooms offered by Samali Suite but still in renovation.

I am very impressed with the friendliness of the staff who can speak English fluently, as we know this hotel is usually visited by expatriates. Differ from some of the hotel is always crowded when the long weekend, Ammi hotel was crowded when the weekday as some hotel guests are mostly workers from the Blok Cepu or ExxonMobil.

Jati Restaurant and Lounge Tea Tree

I spoke with Ms. Indah Lestari in Jati Restaurant while enjoying some dish favored visitors. I ordered the menu Open Faced Cheesesteak Sandwich, Grilled Rib Soup (Sop Iga Sapi), and drinks Green Forest, Yellow Velvet and Black Forest Iced Coffee Blend.
