The worst hotel in Bogor
Very old room in bad condition (broken curtains, broken bin in the toilet). I paid USD 101 for a poor quality room

Free shuttle service is fake! Don't believe it!
It was said in the hotel that they provide free shuttle service to the bus station to the Jakarta airport, but is Fake! On October 14, I tried to ask the shuttle service from hotel to Damri Station of Airport Bus: 1. First, front desk inform me to ask the staff at concierge 2. Then, I went to concierge desk, and the staff told me to ask front desk. So, they are not responsible at all! 3. Finally, the guy in the concierge informed me to wait about 10-15 minutes to prepare the vehicle. 4. After 15 minutes, I ask the staff in concierge, and they said, they will re-confirm to the front desk. 5. Finally, the guy that talk to front desk, ask another guy in the concierge to tell me that the vehicle is not ready and driver is still on the way from other places (It is very unclear where is it and whether true or false information). 6. They slightly mention that I need to wait for hour or more for the driver. Is it true? So, finally, I decide to go to the Damri Station by Angkot with all my luggage, because it is very difficult to find taxi in front of the hotel. So, please be aware that Free Shuttle Service by hotel is Fake! I visited bogor around three to four times a year and always stay in hotel near by Botani Square, this time I choose Salak hotel because it is very close to imperial palace. But, based on very bad experience on the transport services offer by hotel, I won't stay there again! Don't stay in this hotel unless you have your own vehicle.

Old hotel, need refurnish
The only good thing about this hotel is that it is located right across the istana bogor where you (read: your kids) can feed the deers through the palace gate. The only good thing from my stay in the hotel is that my parents' room was upgraded to a suite with no additional cost, just bcoz my dad asked to have a connecting room with me and his grandchild -- this i truly appreciate :). Too bad the check-in process took super long (due to error in system, said the receptionist) and my elderly parents were quite disappointed from waiting too long (even though they got upgraded to a suite for free :)). The suite was a spacious room. Was it a nice room? Not really. It looks really out dated, furniture looks dull and dusty, overall screams the need to be fully refurnished. Dont expect to have a great swim here, coz the pool is small and as my 7 y.o said "not so great". Another disappoint is the room service. We ordered bfast to be delivered to the room, and it took nearly an hour to come. I also had trouble getting hot showers, as it took a while to get the water hot. Plus, the bathroom smells like worn socks. I think the hotel has a lot of potential with its historical building and story, but really needs a good investment to renovate the building/interior as well as upgrading the service

The best part of the hotel is that it is right in front of the palace and its beautiful lawns. The hotel's premises are ok and so are the rooms.

No frills but comfortable.
I stayed the night to attend a wedding. Needed a taxi but taxis weren't biting citing bad weekend traffic. The alternative was a car costing Rp 300K return. I asked about the hotel car and they agreed to send me to the wedding venue on the house.

Great unpretentious hotel
Older property but room was clean and comfortable. Not enough plugs. With Fi a nightmare. Great position opposite istana and botanical gardens. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast included but ordinary but they happily cooked me two boiled eggs. Nice to have a bar in rather dry Bogor. I will stay again

Most convenient location!
Had a very pleasant stay, very typical Indonesian style hotel, staff was very helpful and a hotel car was made available to us to drop us off the botanical garden and gong factory. Will recommend this hotel to friends.

Fantastic retro heritage hotel
We extended our stay several times as really enjoyed Bogor. Staff are really helpful (although none spoke English that fluently) and the hotel has a great retro heritage hotel feel. Food is good - but note this is not really a hotel to drink in (e.g. no minibar). Excellent location adjacent the Botanical Gardens. They pride themselves on being Bogor's leading 4 star hotel - I'm surprised it's not 5 star!

Need work
Room condition is too old, there's a creepy picture welcoming you when the elevator door's open, hallway is way too dark, leaking jet washer, very bad in room dining food taste. Swimming pool water doesn't seems clean, at least it's not clear.

matig
Dit hotel suggereert heel sjiek te zijn, maar dat bleek niet het geval. Het is relatief duur voor wat je er voor krijgt. De bar is ongezellig, er was geen restaurant in het hotel of in de buurt te vinden en er was veel lawaai. Er is een klein zwembad, maar dat is vooral geschikt voor kinderen. Er wordt ook veel entertainment geregeld in en rond het zwembad.

電車がジャカルタ市内に頻繁に出ていて便利
インドネシアのスカルノ空港からボゴール行きの空港バスで終点で下車。下車した車庫の前から03番の軽自動車のバスに乗るとホテルの前につきます。行き過ぎてもボゴール駅ですから便利なところにあり、ホテルの前の植物園から続く庭園は中に入れないが鹿が多数放し飼いにしてあり、策越しに子供が餌をやる姿が見られるいいところです。
