Featuring mountain views, Orangutan Bungalow in Bukit Lawang features accommodation, free bikes, a garden, a terrace, a restaurant and barbecue facilities. Complimentary WiFi is offered.

If you would like to discover the area, cycling is possible in the surroundings and the lodge can arrange a car rental service. I absolutely loved the staff and the whole place! Also the whole hotel area was super clean and well taken care of. Beautiful spot right next to the jungle where you can spot monkeys directly from the hotel yard. Also the jungle trek organized by staff was amazing as well as our guide.

Located in Bukit Lawang, Garden Inn provides accommodation with free WiFi and a garden with a terrace and mountain views.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy a continental breakfast. At Garden Inn you will find a restaurant serving Indonesian cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and halal options can also be requested. Garden Inn exceeded our expectations. We are travelling the world for 3 months and Garden Inn has felt more like home than any other accomodation on our whole trip. The staff go above and beyond, tending to your every need and desire. The hotel provides comfort, the rooms and beds are big, it's curated, so you feel jungle like with rocks and wood inside. Breakfast was amazing!!! Included every day and if we wanted something else they would say sure no problem! We did day trips every day, including orangutan treks where the orangutans were so close yet still wild. Very special! Adi our personal guide took us to all excursions and was exceptional about telling us the story of the village, the rainforest, sustainability efforts, he felt like the village elder and was great speaking English! Thank you Adi!!! Mawan, Rudi and Findo also were the most amazing guides, playing with our 4 and 6 year old boys!!! And making every excursion fun!!! Thank you garden Inn for your hospitality!!!

Providing a restaurant, ORANGUTANTREKSUMATRA & LOVELY JUNGLE LODGE only book IF you are treking with us provides accommodation in Bukit Lawang.

Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with mountain or river views. Had the best time here. Initially booked for 1 night and then stayed for another 3! They have options of staying in the village or in the jungle, a tree house. I picked the latter. The place is simple and Udin's family that runs the place is amazing. Balu (Udin's son) was our trekking guide for the day and he was amazing. We saw 3 orangutans (a mama and a baby, and a lone one) along with other monkeys. Udin's wife Nuri cooks the food and every meal was lip smacking delicious. I was happy to be eating home food after my travels. On my last night in the village, Nuri was nice enough to give me a chicken rendang cooking class in her kitchen and then we ate the same dish with the entire family. All in all, if you're doing a Bukit Lawang trip it has to be with this family, or else are you really getting the authentic experience?

Situated in Bukit Lawang, On The Rocks Bungalows, Restaurant and Jungle Trekking Tours features free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace.

At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving Indonesian and international cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and vegan options can also be requested. We were treated like family at on the rocks, wawan and his team were so helpful and friendly that we instantly felt at home. I cannot recommend staying here enough. We did multiple treks with Wong and he was wonderful, so much information to share but also never even felt like he was a guide. Treks can be suited for your fitness level but you are almost guaranteed to see orangutans no matter where you go. The restaurant was also delicious.
