Cheap Hotels in Malang near Gajah Mada Plaza

Whiz Prime Hotel Basuki Rahmat Malang is a gem! Perfectly located in the heart of Malang, just a 5-minute walk from Kayutangan and close to Malang City Station.

I stayed in this Hotel for my Malang Trip on December 16th to 19th 2025. Such a Good place to Stay overall.

The Snooze Hostel was one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at in Indonesia!
The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and always made sure I had everything I needed.

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in especially for solo trip! The staff were exceptionally friendly. The rooms and all common areas were spotless, fresh, and well-maintained.

+ cleaning is very good, people are disgusting sometimes but the staff was quick to clean every mess very quickly, I saw some off them cleaning all the time.
+ very friendly and hardworking staff.

I liked the Bobopod! It gives you privacy in a cheap way. I had the double just for myself, I think in the smaller ones it can be quite hard to pack your stuff.

Had the best time on the 3 day East Java tour. Nino (Fikri) made the journey so much fun. He shared mentos and had a few extra pillows for people to use. He played good music on the journey as well.

We didn’t sleep in Mador Hostel ourselves, but joined the 3-day East-Java Tour with them.

We did the 3D2N Bromo tour with Semeru hostel and it was great! Everything was well accounted for. Benni was a great driver and great guy who gave us a good time!

We had an incredible experience with Semeru Hostel in Malang!

Lovely clean hostel, comfy beds, great location near the station and all the shops and restaurants. It has a cafe and outside sitting area.

The place is clean, the beds for girls and boys are separated, the blankets and mattresses smell fresh, the caretaker is friendly.

I stayed here for two nights during my solo trip to Malang, and I can say that it was worth the price.
The room was spacious for one, though there was only little space around the table area.

Firstly I was going there at february 2025.

Really good location in the middle of the city, it's close to everywhere, just tired of getting a room on the 3rd floor up the stairs, the rest is all good for that price, choose room number 12, it's

The location is convenient when you arrive late at Kota Malang station, we spent a very short night but the room was very clean, it has everything you need, communication with the establishment was

The room is very nice, good value for money. Staff is helpful and smiling. Location is perfect, close to railway station.

A beautiful guest house with a great location next to Retawu Deli. The room is okay, although we can still notice the sound from next door patrons. The room can use some sort of refurbishments.

This hotel definately exceeded my expectations. Dont be fooled by the 'guest house' this is an excellent hotel. Great for recovering after short nights for tours to Bromo / the waterfall. 10/10

Picked this hotel because of its great value. It's in the center of Malang city but with reasonable price. Very clean, neat and good taste breakfast.

Artived early, having ridden over Mt Bromo, was hopping to becable to park and leave luggage, but they checked us in do we could have a snssck and shower before we explored, fantastic setvice.

Having 2 amazing nights here in SAME hotel. Located just few steps from the station malang, this hotel is easy to access. It is also located not far from alun2 and the center of the city.

To start, my favourite part was walking into the room and immediately smooth jazz began playing.

Best experience. Hotel is beautiful, homie and spacious. It has high ceiling and well-ventilated, the furnitures are tasteful modern vintage wood furnitures. Staffs are professional and accomplished.

We always stay in this Guest House every time we visit Malang. And each time by design we choose the rooms on the 3rd floor. Especially 301, 302 0r 303.

Hot water, decent aircon and comfy beds. The staff were lovely and helpful. Good location in Malang, can walk to most central stuff.

Perfect stay! Lots of help organising tours (tours are amazing). Very kind and friendly staff! Loved the food and drinks — felt like I was eating at home!

What a great stay we had at The Shelter!
The room and common areas were spotlessly clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Somehow, it reminded me of sleeping at my grandma’s house when I was a kid.

I really like this place, is an old Dutch building from colonial period, definitely need to be renovated, specially the bathroom, but I love it.
Seems like grandma house, huge living room if you like

I loved this place. It was once a grand home, now its a character filled cheap guesthouse in central Malang next to the grand Tugu & 5 min from train station.
