The perfect place to stay in Berastagi

Delicious local breakfasts, super clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot water, super convenient location and incredible view of Berastagi. Kaes thorough information and tips for our stay made sure we saw lots of sights and enjoyed plenty of local experiences. Highly recommend staying here, thanks again!!
3. Bukit Lawang Hill Resort

Bukit Lawang Hill Resort facilitated WiFi, hot shower, and evening briefing for the environment study case as part of our SUMECO. The restaurant provides fresh healthy food, so as vegetarian dishes - no palm oil or instant foods, with panoramic views covering all over the Bukit Lawang village area, Bohorok river, and Gunung Leuser National Park.
Home near the Jungle
Reviewed By ocava8A good place to get away from people, or, on the contrary, to get to know them closer. Both introversial me and my socially active, nice and extraversial friend liked the place a lot. People living there are very nice. Accommodation neat and comfortable, and every sunrise and when the night comes you can see the whole small world beneath you and hear the music of Jungle. As Claude Levi-Strauss wrote: Music is a language by whose means messages are elaborated, that such messages can be understood by the many but sent out only by few, and that it alone among all the languages unites the contradictory character of being at once intelligible and untranslatable - these facts make the creator of music a being like the gods.

5. Ida Guest House & Restaurant

Very accommodating host with excellent jungle trekking.
Reviewed By Alex KWe enjoyed our stay at the Ida Guest house. We had a basic room (mosquito net, bed, bathroom, toilet etc) and had a comfortable 3 nights here (1 night in the jungle). The room is basic with no hot water, but you are in quite a remote area. WiFi was great throughout. We booked a tour to the jungle overnight through the guest house. This is a must! The guides were brilliant and it was great to see all the wildlife. We had only 4 in our group and really enjoyed staying in the jungle. Mudhi was very helpful throughout and provided vegan food at his restaurant when we were hungry. It was all reasonably priced. He also looked after our bikes. Lovely shared seating area outside and it is in an excellent location. Things to note, there are no cash machines and he charged me 3% on a card payment. Also we arrived when it was dark on bikes, the local people were rather intimidating and persistent. They followed us aggressively on bikes even when we told them we were fine and had a hotel.

Great location, friendly staff but terrible facilities
Reviewed By grizzly76Good: - great location near food streets (Jl Selat Panjang & Jl Semarang) & Medan Mall - reasonably near Medan train station - friendly and helpful staff - ceiling fans at the second floor make for a cool place to sit - WiFi speed is acceptable Bad: - many reviews have noted the lift shaft without an operational lift; no sign that a lift will be installed anytime soon - Rooms have no chairs, no toilet paper, no clothes hangers, no mini-fridge, no cable tv, no telephone. - The room I was assigned had a badly slanting side table and (small) ants all over. The toilet was also grubby. - The security set-up seemed minimal, with fewer than expected security cameras. - Not much traffic noise but noise from people moving about in the corridor was bothersome. - BIGGEST DRAWBACK WAS THE BARELY FUNCTIONING AIR-CONDITIONING. Once can overlook the other points but to return to a sweltering room that stays warm is totally unacceptable!

Great stay and great tours!
Reviewed By thejeanelisePutts and his family were excellent hosts and I really enjoyed his trekking tour of the Sumatran jungle. He is very thoughtful of the animals and, unlike many other tour guides, he does not feed the animals or try to tame them so tourists can get their selfies. I chose him because I had read he was conscientious, and I was right! He was very informative, educational, and protective of the animals and their habitat. Also, his cook prepared some of the best food I had in Sumatra - his coconut chicken was amazing! A plead to other tourists, please please please, do NOT feed the animals in the jungle - it’s very harmful to them. Also please keep a respectful distance, it’s dangerous to desensitize animals to human presence and also creates unnecessary stress. No selfish selfies! :) they have enough working against them with habitat loss. Thank you! Enjoy tour stay with Putra - ask him to share his riddles with you!! He’s got lots of good puzzles :)

Jamburae Lodge offers comfortable accommodation with a chilled atmosphere right in front of the world-famous surf spot "The Point" in Nias, Indonesia.
Epic Surf trip Nias
Reviewed By patbq2183We stayed for about 2 weeks in Jamburae Lodge and had one of the best surfing vacations ever! The waves are just out of this world and the people around the whole island are extremely friendly. At the lodge we had absolutely no issues and loved the food and hospitality. Petra and Cite, the owners, were always making sure we had everything we needed and became very good friends of ours! Hope to be back soon.

Best place to stay on the way to/from Banyak islands
Reviewed By tomash270Excellent place to stay if you are heading from or to Banyak islands. The place is super clean, very conveniently located on the river bank. You can play badminton, or do some kayaking around the mangrove forest nearby. Breakfast is included and staff is precious; they drove me around until I found ATM, which would work for me (quite a challenge!)

Dirty
Reviewed By Alex JWe spent two nights at the Green Lodge and feel that we need to add a review, given that the ones were quite misleading. Yes, the location is good, given the hotel is right next to the elephant camp. You can sit in restaurant and see elephants walking by in the morning. On the other hand, it’s the hotel furthest away from the village center (about 15 minutes on foot). Yes, restaurant area is nice and in the evening, there’s a nice atmosphere, with the locals playing guitars. Yes, breakfast (eggs and coffee/tea) included in room price (which was around 11 E), and it was good. Yes, staff , especially young woman, unfortunately can't remember her name, and young man, Peru, very helpful. Beer price reasonable, 40.000 idr, I think. No wifi, but that was ok. However. Dinner mediocre. The young man who runs the place seems not to care – we asked him repeatedly about arranging a return drive to Medan and first he quoted a horrendous price and then, seeing we were not interested suggested a lower price – but then never informed us about departure time, despite repeated phone calls. We ultimately booked a drive through the Tourist Office in the center. The biggest issue: Rooms. We had a room that was part of a duplex, with semi-view of the review. The room is not just basic or rough (no A/C, a small fan that barely works, no warm water, no furniture). That would be ok, given that you’re in the middle of the jungle. The room is dirty. It seems never to have been cleaned or fumigated. It seems never to have been renovated. Mosquito net was dirty. Add to that that wooden floor (which looked as if it had never been swept) and wooden walls also have cracks and cockroaches come in and out. Bathroom without flush toilet or sink, just a large bucket below a faucet that fills with water when you wash hands - and to flush you use a pail. Nowhere to place toilet paper (you will have to ask to be given some) or hang towel (you will have to ask to be given some). One side is partially open, with a broad wire that does not reach top. Different insects came flying in and out. You may say that for that price, one cannot expect luxury. That is true. However, cleanliness is not luxury.
