The Grand Permata Hotel is one of the long-standing hotels in Purwakarta City, with a strategic location right on the main road. Despite its prime location, the rooms are set back slightly, ensuring a peaceful atmosphere away from the noise of traffic—making for a comfortable sleep.
The indoor and semi-indoor swimming pools are quite complete and a plus, especially if you're staying with children. They'll love splashing around.
However, I have some feedback that I consider important for improvement. First, the presence of staff smoking or vaping in the hotel area can be quite disturbing, especially if the room is located near the staff rest area. In my experience, my room was right next to the stairs, and the area where the cleaning staff vaped was uncomfortable for guests, especially non-smokers. Although they tried to hide it when guests were around, it was still disturbing.
Second, for me, as a business traveler, internet connection is crucial. Unfortunately, the Wi-Fi here was unreliable and the cellular signal was very weak, making it impossible to work effectively during my stay.
And as you can see in the picture, there was a cockroach in the room, which made me question the hotel's cleanliness.
The breakfast was quite comprehensive and the food was delicious, so it's highly recommended.
We hope this feedback can be used for mutual improvement, as overall, this hotel has good potential to provide a more comfortable stay for all guests.
