Grand Town Hotel Makassar

Absolutely original by its kitschy decor; I loved every bit of my too short stay. A fresh haven in the bustling city of Malassar with a very friendly staff, willing to help, Very clean and comfortable, really non-smoking, with rooms giving the feeling to live princess-like. And, last but not least : affordable. The room service is excellent, and convenient. Only maybe it would be worth considering to improve a bit the quality of food; which I found only average, not up the standard of the hotel. Anyway, very agreable. I would definetely come back here if I have to stay again in Makassar. A litte tips for means of transporation in town and to go to/from the airport : use private taxi related to the very popular application "Grab".. It is much more safe than the exotic "becaks" and really worth to escape the pollution. You also can use the toll way to/from the airport. It should take then about 30 mns between the center and the airport. Otherwise, count really 2 long hours !!! The damri bus that link the city center and airport does not use the toll and it takes ages to reach your destination. If you need help to install the Grab application, or need info on how it works, ask at the hotel's reception; they'll surely help.
