Red 9 Hotel opened in 2016 on Jalan Siak Sri Indapura in Selatpanjang, the main town of the Meranti Islands in Riau province, Indonesia. Traveloka's listing records 2016 as both the year the hotel was built and the year of its last renovation, which makes it one of the more recently built properties in a town that has only two hotels listed on Traveloka. The full address is Jalan Siak Sri Indapura No.3, Selatpanjang, Meranti Islands, Riau, Indonesia, 28753, and the property sits within the Tebing Tinggi area of the regency.
The building is a mid-sized, four-storey hotel with 50 rooms, served by a lift, a single in-house restaurant and a small set of meeting and conference spaces. That combination is what makes it useful in Selatpanjang: the same building can host a business traveller visiting the regency for a few days, a family stopping over on an island trip, or a local wedding or company gathering. Traveloka lists it under the standard hotel category rather than as a guesthouse or homestay, and it does not carry an official star classification in the listing data.
Two things stand out in Traveloka's own quality signals for the property. It is flagged as offering great value in its class, meaning it has consistently kept competitive prices and availability on the platform, and it is recognised for high-quality service with minimal check-in issues. For a small island town where choice is limited, that track record of smooth arrivals is worth knowing before you book.
Red 9 Hotel has 50 rooms spread over four floors. Traveloka's structured listing does not publish a confirmed room-tier ladder for this property, so this page does not name specific room categories, bed configurations or room sizes. The live room list on the Traveloka page is the place to check which room types are on sale for your dates, along with bed type, maximum occupancy and whether breakfast is bundled into the rate.
The hotel-wide facility data confirms air conditioning and heaters in the property, so the room climate can be adjusted whatever the weather outside. Rooms are reached by lift, so guests on the upper floors do not need to carry luggage up the stairs. Room service is listed as available, which is useful after a late boat arrival when the restaurant may be quiet. Per-room features such as a television, refrigerator, kettle or toiletries are not itemised in the listing, so check the individual room description before booking if any of these matter to you.
Connecting rooms are listed among the hotel's general facilities. For families with children, or for colleagues travelling together on a work visit to the regency, booking two adjoining rooms keeps everyone close while still giving each party its own space. Availability of connecting rooms is never guaranteed, so add a request in the special-requests field when booking and confirm with the front desk ahead of arrival.
Red 9 Hotel lists an accessible bathroom and accessible parking. Combined with lift access to all four floors, this makes the hotel a more practical option than many walk-up properties for guests with limited mobility or for those travelling with older relatives. Because accessible features can vary between rooms, contact the hotel through your booking to confirm a suitable room is assigned.
For a 50-room hotel in a small regency town, Red 9 Hotel covers a fairly broad list of facilities. Everything below comes from Traveloka's structured facility data for the property.
The meeting and event side of the hotel is worth highlighting. With a conference room, meeting facilities, a projector and a wedding service all listed, Red 9 Hotel can handle small seminars, government or corporate visits and family celebrations without guests needing to look elsewhere in Selatpanjang. If you are planning an event, contact the property directly through the details on your booking to confirm capacity and set-up options, as these are not published in the listing.
The free parking is a practical plus for anyone using a car or motorbike on Tebing Tinggi island, and the round-the-clock front desk means late arrivals off an evening boat can still check in. Airport transfer is not offered by the hotel, so plan your own onward transport.
Red 9 Hotel is at Jalan Siak Sri Indapura No.3 in Selatpanjang, postcode 28753, within the Tebing Tinggi area of the Meranti Islands regency in Riau province. Its map coordinates are roughly 1.0107 N, 102.7062 E, placing it in the town itself rather than on the outskirts. Traveloka's listing does not publish named landmarks or walking distances for this property, so use the map on the hotel page to check how far it is from the places you plan to visit.
What the listing does confirm is the everyday convenience around the hotel. Nearby facilities include:
Having cash machines and shops close at hand makes it easy to pick up essentials or withdraw local currency without a long trip across town.
The hotel does not list a nearby airport and does not offer an airport transfer, so treat Selatpanjang as a sea-access destination. Travellers from Singapore usually reach the Meranti Islands by combining a trip to a larger regional gateway in Riau or the Riau Islands with an onward boat connection. Ferry routes, operators and timetables change, so confirm the current schedule with the operator before you travel, and allow a buffer on your departure day. If you are starting the journey by air, you can book a flight to a regional gateway on Traveloka and then continue by sea.
Red 9 Hotel has one restaurant on site, according to Traveloka's listing, and its food and drink facilities also include a bar, a cafe, a coffee shop, a snack bar and snacks, along with coffee and tea in the lobby. For a small hotel, that gives guests several ways to eat and drink without leaving the building, from a sit-down meal to a quick coffee before a meeting.
Breakfast is available at the hotel. The listing shows a separate breakfast charge, which means breakfast may not be included in every rate. When you book on Traveloka, check whether the room you select says breakfast is included; if it does not, you can usually add it at the hotel. The exact charge is set by the property and can change, so confirm it at check-in.
Room service is listed as available, which is handy for business travellers working late or families settling children after a long journey. Selatpanjang itself is a compact town, and the grocery shops and supermarket listed nearby are useful for snacks, drinks and essentials. If you want to round out your trip with local experiences, you can browse tours and things to do on Traveloka for the wider region.
In a town with only two hotels listed on Traveloka, Red 9 Hotel's case rests on being a relatively recent build with a practical facility set. Here is what it offers in Selatpanjang:
Traveloka's quality signals add to the picture: the hotel is recognised for great value in its class and for high-quality service with minimal check-in issues. It suits government and corporate visitors, families on an island stopover and anyone who wants a straightforward, well-equipped base in Selatpanjang. If you are weighing it against other options in Riau, you can compare other hotels on Traveloka before deciding.
