The Christmas atmosphere is already felt upon entering the lobby of Sheraton Surabaya. The Winter Forest-themed decorations occupy the central area of the lobby between two staircases, complete with miniature deer, lush green shrub landscapes, white trees, and lights on the ceiling that create a starry impression at night.
Christmas celebrations abroad usually begin with Thanksgiving week, which occurs every Thursday of the third week of November to mark the transition from autumn to winter. This tradition is adapted at Sheraton Surabaya with the Thanksgiving Week promo from November 23 to 26, 2023. Not only will there be Roasted Turkey as the 'must-have' dish, but the Bromo Cafe buffet will also feature a variety of salads as appetizers, a Western Corner, a Japanese Corner complete with unlimited sushi, sashimi, various dim sum, and Indonesian cuisine.
Birgitta M., Director of Marketing Communication – Complex Sheraton Surabaya Hotel & Towers, and Four Points by Sheraton Surabaya Tunjungan Plaza, stated that the Bromo Cafe buffet has long been a favorite among the people of Surabaya. "The uniqueness here lies in Indonesian cuisine, so whatever the occasion, the favorite food is always available," said the woman affectionately known as Igga. "Guests also love it because usually, Sushi and Sashimi are limited in buffet restaurants, but not here. It's like, when you dine at Bromo Cafe at any moment, you can taste everything, from Indonesia, Japan, Thailand, Europe, everything." Especially for the Thanksgiving moment, visitors can enjoy discounts of up to 50% with certain credit cards.
In December, Bromo Cafe also offers special deals for guests who want to have a buffet dinner with free table decoration for every booking of a minimum of ten people. "In December, people usually take the opportunity to dine together and exchange gifts. To make it more attractive, we provide free table decorations throughout December," said Igga. "This promotion has been running for three years every December." For December 24 and 25, Bromo Cafe also presents buffet dinners and lunches with discounts of up to 30%.
