Airport Guide
Compare 3 airports near Senapelan
For most travelers, Sultan Syarif Kasim II International Airport (PKU) is the only logical choice, as it is the sole airport located directly within Pekanbaru city. It handles domestic and regional international traffic with efficient transport options like ridesharing and official taxis. The other two airports are located in neighboring cities and serve different regions entirely. Minangkabau International Airport (PDG) serves the city of Padang and is located over 195 km away; it is not a practical transit point for reaching central Pekanbaru, involving a long journey by road or a secondary flight. Similarly, Japura Airport (RGT) is a small regional facility located in Rengat, Indragiri Hulu. It primarily serves local domestic traffic to Batam and lacks any direct, convenient commercial connection to Pekanbaru. Travelers should avoid considering these unless they have specific business in those remote regions, as the travel time and cost to reach Senapelan from them are significantly higher compared to the central hub.

The location is just super convenient, bridged with mall. Walking distance to Alfromart & Indomart, opposite Novotel which was full that we resorted to Fox Harris. But no regret. There was surprise fox performance during breakfast, and free cake decorating for kids during breakfast too.FromUS$30

Overall, it's good value for money, but there are some downsides. There was no hot water for showering. The front desk service was very welcoming, which is why I insisted on staying there. The only downside was the lack of hot water. The bed was comfortable, and the hotel was cleaner than other hotels, and not damp. If you don't mind the lack of hot water or the not-too-cold water, it's a good option.FromUS$18
