Majapahit Hotel Surabaya - MGallery Collection

Tunjungan, central Surabaya

A landmark colonial-era MGallery hotel at Jalan Tunjungan No. 65 in central Surabaya, blending heritage architecture with award-winning Art Deco restaurants and tropical gardens.

Last updated August 11, 2026

The Majapahit Hotel Surabaya is an MGallery Collection property occupying a landmark colonial building at Jalan Tunjungan No. 65 in the heart of Surabaya. Originally opened in 1910 as Hotel Oranje, the property is one of Indonesia's most historically significant hotels — it was here that Dutch flags were torn apart during the 1945 independence struggle, an event commemorated in the hotel's heritage programming. The hotel blends classical colonial architecture with Art Deco interiors, featuring generous tropical gardens, award-winning restaurants, a swimming pool, and a spa. On TripAdvisor it holds a 4 out of 5 rating, ranking #31 of 204 hotels in Java — a solid score for a heritage property, where guest expectations must account for the quirks of a century-old building. As an MGallery Collection property, it offers a boutique, character-driven experience rather than a standard chain-hotel product. The central Surabaya location places it near Tunjungan Plaza and the city's business district. For ALL Accor elite members, standard programme benefits apply: welcome drink, room upgrades for Platinum and Diamond, and early check-in and late check-out for Diamond. The property is the only luxury-tier Accor option in Surabaya.
