Beach Hotels in West Java, Indonesia

I am reviewing my stay in a sunset suite; about one mio per night. I did not expect a lot so I booked the most expensive room available at that time to have at least some hope for good standard but was left disappointed. 1. Overall impression The hotel is entirely run down, the reception area leaves the impression of the owners home and I was not able to spot a clean spot. Checkin was smooth because nothing was done. Manager refuses to speak English thigh his English is good. This educational approach to foreigner is common but this was a different level. I have not been to IN long enough to speak the language to the level the gentleman expected so had to insist on EN, but that was dead end. I found his behavior impolite at best. 2. Room The room was spacious, but that was the only good thing. It was dirty, sandy, the walls were falling off and I did not dare to sit on the couch.; hell knows what happened there. Went to Indomaret to get bugspray; urgently suggest that to any customer. The bathroom was one wet room, common in low priced hotels but why do that in the suite?!? The balcony/Terrasse had a good location, directly at the beach in front of the waves. I was afraid catching a disease sitting in the couch on the Terrasse though. 3. Restaurant After a long days ride I was hoping to have just a dinner at the restaurant and call it a day, restaurant was closed, so back on the bike and search for alternatives. Luckily all other restaurants were open. 4. Sleep quality The bed linen was dirty. The sleep was ok until 6am when the common area was filled with people and it was loud. Very loud. 5. Breakfast Reason for the common area being so loud was that the breakfast was not provided in the restaurant. They would bring nasi and stuff to the room and have some drinks and breads in the floor provided for pickup. I ordered my breakfast for 8.30 to recover from the ride; the first time they knocked was at 7, then 7.05, 7.15 and at 7.30 I finally had enough and opened. The common area where they provided coffee and things was an entire mess. Food was lying around, most was empty; I could only get some last sips of water. 5. Checkout was non-existent; hence smooth. 6. Conclusion Overall a disaster for this price. Can easily get the same for half the price and with better service.

From all accommodations in Indonesia to date the least hotel. We stayed there two nights. From outside the Arnawa Hotel has a beautiful appearance as well as the pool. Unfortunately the further stay is disappointing. We got a room that was so muffy and acid smoke because it was very moist that we couldn't stay there. The alternative room we got was and the room is on the top floor (downgrade) instead of the downstairs with garden. The air-conditioning room was opened in the room with temperatures up to 16 degrees without being adapted or deactivated. The shower has little water pressure, so you have to stand almost against the wall to get a little shower. The mirror is completely detached and the door on the bottom is broken. The breakfast is working with a time lock and breakfast voucher you have to pick up in the front desk at the reception. This is called to organize everything better, but it seems that nobody keeps on or is not monitored. The result is a complete chaos. You are in the All-Inclusive “food shell” of the worst species. The dishes are not or very slowly supplemented, which makes t**** ground unable to get. The controller doesn't speak English and look glazing when you ask them something. The only reason that two stars are given here is because we are used to the lower standards you can expect. The reception hears comments all kind with a smile but does nothing.

Affordable hotel, near the beach, just across the road to reach the beach, there is a facilities of the pool and playground, a large park with jogging track. The room has breakfast, the five of us got a pretty large room facing the road. There is a mosque in front of the hotel near the beach, so you can still go to prayer together on holiday 1

There are a lot of lizards anyway. Other than that it's great. It's close to the sea, so you can go surfing. Great location. There is also a restaurant next door, so you can have a relaxing holiday.

its very near to the the beach

Die Anlage wirkte zunächst sehr gut. Ein weiteres Hotle auf unserer Rundreise mit WI. Die Zimmer waren dann doch sehr einfach. Klimaanlage und TV vorhanden. Leider kein Safe. Das Bett war sehr hart, das Bad sehr einfach aber mit dem ekeligsten Duschvorhang ever! Der Muezzin schreit schon morgens um 4h für eine Stunde aus verschiedenen Ecken des Ortes. Schlaf ist hier nicht möglich. Das Frühstück war einfach aber okay. Nachmittags gibt es Kaffee/ Tee und Gebäck. Mit einfachen Mitteln hätte man eine besssere Atmosphäre schaffen können. Leider haben sie die Chance vertan.
