Few hotels in Padang make as much use of height as The ZHM Premiere Padang. The 15-storey tower on Jl. MH Thamrin places its leisure spaces high above the street: according to the hotel's official website, the swimming pool sits on the 12th floor and is described by the hotel as the highest infinity pool in town, while the Premiere Sky Lounge occupies the 15th floor and features a glass floor, which the hotel calls the first of its kind in West Sumatra. For travellers who want a city hotel with a view of Padang from above, that vertical layout is the property's most distinctive trait.
The building has a little history behind it, too. Traveloka's listing records that the hotel was built in 2012 and last renovated in 2021, and that it was previously known as Grand Zuri Padang before taking on its current ZHM Premiere name. Travellers searching for the old name will find the same address: Jl. MH Thamrin No. 27, Padang Selatan, Padang, West Sumatra 25133. The property is operated by ZHM Hotels (Zuri Hotel Management), whose official site positions it as a 4 Plus-Star hotel, and it carries a 4.5-star classification on Traveloka.
With 200 rooms spread across 15 floors, this is one of the larger hotels in the South Padang area, and it is built for more than overnight stays. Two grand ballrooms and a set of meeting and function rooms make it a regular choice for weddings, conferences and corporate gatherings, while the pools, children's facilities and round-the-clock room service suit families and leisure guests. The sections below cover the rooms, facilities, location, dining and practical booking points, based on Traveloka's listing data and the hotel's official website.
The ZHM Premiere Padang has 200 rooms in total, which the official website describes as well-appointed and modern in design. The hotel's own site does not publish a named room-category ladder, and room tiers shown on Traveloka can change with availability, so check the live room list on the property page for the current categories, bed types, sizes and maximum occupancy before you book.
The bulk of the inventory is made up of guest rooms on the tower's upper floors. Air conditioning is listed for the property, and the official website notes that the hotel uses "Zuri Dream" beds made by King Koil, the brand's signature bedding. Traveloka's facility list for the property includes a desk, TV with cable channels, a shower, a hairdryer, a minibar and an in-room safe, with a bathtub also listed; as with most hotels of this size, the exact in-room set can differ between room categories, so confirm the specific features on the room you select. Rooms run on 220-volt power, so travellers from Singapore will generally need a plug adaptor.
For longer stays or guests who need more space to work, the official website states that all suites feature a separate living area and a spacious work desk with WiFi. That separation between sleeping and living space makes the suites a practical pick for business travellers hosting small meetings, or for families who want an extra area to relax in. Suite availability and configurations vary, so view the room details on Traveloka for current options.
Traveloka's listing shows connecting rooms at The ZHM Premiere Padang, useful for families or groups who want adjoining space. The property also lists in-room accessibility features, an accessible bathroom, accessible parking and wheelchair access. If you need a connecting or accessible room, mention it as a special request when booking and contact the hotel ahead of arrival; the hotel asks guests to get in touch one day before they arrive, and special requests are subject to availability at check-in.
The facility list at The ZHM Premiere Padang is broad for a city hotel, and several of its key spaces are spread vertically through the tower. Highlights confirmed by Traveloka's listing and the official website include:
On the service side, the hotel has a 24-hour receptionist and 24-hour security, along with a concierge, bellhop, luggage storage, a cloakroom, laundry service, a clothes dryer, a safety deposit box and multilingual staff. Lifts serve the building. Smoking is permitted only in the designated smoking area, and pets are not allowed. Close to the hotel, Traveloka notes ATM and banking services, a supermarket, a grocery store, laundry shops and beauty and hair salons, which is handy for longer stays.
The ZHM Premiere Padang stands on Jl. MH Thamrin in Padang Selatan (South Padang), one of the city's central districts. Traveloka records the hotel as being in the city centre, and the official website describes it as about five minutes from the Padang central business district. That central position keeps shops, banks, offices and local eateries within a short ride, while the tower's height gives upper-floor guests a wide outlook over the city.
Minangkabau International Airport is Padang's main gateway, and both Traveloka's listing and the hotel's official website put the journey from the airport to the hotel at around 45 minutes, depending on traffic. Travellers from Singapore can book flights to Padang on Traveloka and then take a taxi, a ride-hailing car or the hotel's own airport transfer, which carries a surcharge and should be arranged in advance.
Once in the city, taxis and app-based rides are the easiest way to move between districts. The hotel offers bicycle rental for short trips, and secure on-site parking makes self-driving straightforward for guests on a West Sumatra road trip heading inland towards the highlands. Because the hotel asks guests to contact it one day before arrival, it is worth confirming your arrival time and any transfer booking at the same time.
Traveloka's listing shows one restaurant and one bar at The ZHM Premiere Padang, with breakfast, buffet breakfast, à la carte breakfast, à la carte lunch and à la carte dinner all listed. The hotel's official website names two outlets:
Breakfast at the hotel is served from 06:00 to 10:00. Whether breakfast is included depends on the rate you book, and the hotel charges an additional fee per guest for extra breakfast, so compare room options on Traveloka if you want breakfast bundled in. For guests arriving late or working odd hours, 24-hour room service is listed on Traveloka.
Padang is also the home of Minangkabau cooking, and many travellers will want to try local restaurants serving the city's well-known rice dishes during their stay. Pair a food outing with tours and activities around Padang and West Sumatra to make the most of the region's coast and highlands.
The strongest reason to choose The ZHM Premiere Padang is the combination of a central South Padang address with resort-style leisure spaces stacked inside a city tower. Few business hotels pair a 12th-floor infinity pool, a children's pool and a glass-floored sky lounge with ballrooms large enough for major events, which makes this hotel equally useful for a family weekend and a corporate conference.
