The Axana Hotel
4/10 Poor
"Air conditioning not satisfactory, room not serviced and had to ask for servicing.
Staff are very nice.
The pool is dirty and needs upgrading as does the entire hotel, very run down. I’m sure it was classy when first built but those days are in the distant past.
Central location.
Television not working properly.
No SMART TV.
Bidet broken and non existent, toilet seat broken."
"Fantastic hotel with a great rooftop bar and restaurant. The staff are always very friendly and helpful and breakfast is great and starts nice and early for those needing to catch the early ferry to the Mentawais. Recommend. "
"I was traveling in few places in Indonesia and during my trip I made three bookings for this hotel Fahira Hotel Syariah Padang in Padang, so it tells I was really satisfied and had no any reason to think any other hotel options in Padang.
People in reception and breakfast room (not to forget cleaners etc.) were always smily and helpful. And they spoke good English. They were also helpful after I had one accident.
During my different bookings I was staying in a few different types of rooms and both were clean and big. As well bathrooms. I am from Europe and it was really important that air-source heat pumps were quality ones, so they had a lot of adjustment possibilities. Mini fridge would have been a nice addition.
I found out that Indonesia is not an easy country for vegetarians. BUT Fahira Hotel Syariah Padang had a really, really good breakfast. There were around 10-12 hot options and everyday at least four of them were suitable for vegetarians and vegans. It is better to ask every morning what is suitable for vegetarians and vegans as for example in some days rice choices had meat. Also there were desserts etc. I appreciated a good vegetarian breakfast for example on the first day when I was walking in the city and there were not any vegetarian food in two first restaurants and only once simple choice in the third restaurant. Luckily Fahira Hotel Syariah Padang also has a restaurant."
"The room ok, the Tv channel isonly from antenna,so it blurry, the sink always clogged,the shower hard to control the temperature, this side of hotel only on weekdays,if you want to stay on the better room at the new building,only open in weekends,so don’t expect 4-5 star on weekdays."
"There was a confusion during check in, i booked four rooms but they only received 2 under my name. While the others aren't. That caused a delay but no issue.
Pool was great but there's only 1 indoor shower available. And there's no hook or hanger on the changing rooms. "
