Lodges in Bukit Lawang

Everything! Staff is very nice and helpful. Property is clean. just outside of bungalow we some Thomas Leaf Monkey and in the evening even Orangutan! Very nice stay, good value for money, food is good, view is wonderful 10/10

Beautifully maintained gardens and incredibly friendly staff at the Travelodge. We opted for a 2 day, 1 night jungle trek to go for orangutan spotting. Our guide Selemat was very supportive and an expert on everything in the jungle. His knowledge and experience meant that we saw 9 orangutan in 2 days when some trekkers didn’t see any! Special shout out to our cook Padly, who treated us to a sensational Indonesian dinner in the middle of the jungle! Terima kasih!

It is very calm and nice near the center but still in hhe jungle.

Thank you for lovely stay. Udin took care of everything and his sons were on the trip to jungle with us. Balu was very kind and helpful, he tried his best to find the orangutans and he knew a lot about the animals. The lodges are in the jungle, we saw Thomas Leaf monkeys on the way there. There is running water where you can shower yourself, and clean toilet. There are beds with mosqito nets. There is no electricity, and quite weak signal. But if you want to stay in the djungle, by the camp fire watching fireflies, this location is the best. The views to the djungle are amazing, and sunrises are astonishing.

What an amazing peaceful place and full of fauna all around. The gardens is maintained with such great care. Huge bungalow, shower was simple and rustic without warm water but it’s in the edge of the jungle. I’ve stayed one week there and Wawan took such a good care organizing jungle trek for everyone at his lodge. Always friendly and caring without being intrusive. You will see a lot of monkey just from you’re balcony and hear them at night.

The accommodation is set in the forest across the rope bridge close to a transport hub and local shops, cafes where u can buy snack and drinks were u are supporting the local community. The room was clean and well presented the shower had tepid water which is exactly what is required. Mosquito net proved over the bed. The restaurant venue is hi completely constructed with bamboo it is open and airy with a lovely view of the river it also has a great food menu and bar with good service, the Wi-Fi in this area is very good, there is no Wi-Fi in the rooms which we enjoyed :-) Breakfast was nice and plenty of coffee. It’s only a 20m walk down to the river for a lovely swim. We did a single day’s trek in to jungle booked through the hotel after arrival. We walking from the lodge, we saw 5 Orangutans and the Alpha Male plus another 3 different type’s of monkeys all this was in the first few hours, the lunch was nice fruit and rice our guide was Aldo who was young but very professional ( highly recommend) he was smartly dressed fully equipped with a first aid kit ( leeches) and also spoke English it was a pleasure to be in his company. We really enjoyed our stay of 3 nights thanks to all the staff We were also there over the weekend no karaoke from across the river

We stayed at Brown Bamboo for 4 nights and we can’t thank enough for Gia and his lovely wife for making our stay really special!The rooms are basic but you have everything what you would need!Super friendly and kind host!They even invited us to join them for a wedding in a village!Gia organised our jungle trekking which is a memory I will never forget!Our guides Gesu and Borneo are the best!!!the jungle trekk with the hot-humid weather is very hard but it is worth every second of it and they will look after you in every step of the way!we saw many orangutans,some very close to us!!!Sleeping in a jungle is very surreal ,but being and sleeping in nature is a one of a kind experience!Gia also organised a trip to Tangakhan where you can wash the elephants in the river and feed them!Great experience! I would absolutely recommend Brown Bamboo guests house if you looking for a friendly and familiar place ! Thank you Gia and family for making our stay really special!
