    Where to stay in Surabaya

    Look near the main attractions and major shopping areas to find pricier and luxurious accommodations. Affordable and cheerful hostels and rental apartments often sit in the shadows cast by the skyscraper hotels. Lodgings by the harbor and along the surrounding arterial road provide convenient travel options for those wishing to get out of town easily.
