Sembalun Lawang Konaklamanızı Bulun

The hotel is interesting. It's new and modern and very minimalistic in both good and bad ways. The room is like a box. It's not bad. You access the door and control window dimming and light with a phone app (or a screen on the wall). The bed is comfortable. The room has a nice shower, although you can easily pinch your fingers when sliding the shower door (very painful). The two issues I had were the flies that I couldn't get out of the room (they easily get inside through the door and don't leave) and breakfast/dinner that is served in a cardboard box. It's not particularly pleasant or tasty. The staff is very friendly and helpful (just like all other Indonesian people I met). It was hard to get a car to leave the village, but the staff person called all of his friends and found me a driver. The hotel is situated on the edge of the village. I didn't have a motorbike so it took me 15 minutes to get to a nearest shop and 30 minutes by foot to get to the start of the Pergasingan hiking trail.

Nice secluded location away from the busy road. If arriving by car, one needs to park at adjacent Lembah Rinjani. Wifi did not work. Even if it did, could only access it by going to Lembah Rinjani as well. Likewise, breakfast was also served at the cafe at Lembah Rinjani. Pretty odd arrangement overall. Room was comfy albeit small. Hot shower worked reasonably well. Breakfast was pretty basic. Overall for above Rp300.000 room, was expecting a bit more. Beautiful gardens and view of Mt Rinjani from the resort itself.

Five stars to this hotel, unforgettable Linjani volcano hike! Compared with bromo and ijen, Linjani is little known, but the difficulty is quite large. This time I chose to hike for three days and two nights. I chose this hotel for the rest before and after the hike. It is a hotel, in fact, it is more like a farmhouse. The hotel is fully equipped (supervisory room). It is very suitable for friends who go to Linjani to rest here. You can see the Linjani volcano in the hotel. If you are lucky, you can see the sunrise Linjani. Very beautiful!

Modern structure composed of some rooms arranged in two rows, with a splendid view of the Sembalun valley. Not very large dimensions, comfortable bed, good sleep quality, despite being located right along the main road. Possibility to rent a scooter for around €6 per day. The strong point is undoubtedly the availability and goodwill of the guys who manage it, in particular Tobi and Endra. So cute that you can forgive the various flaws of the breakfast, such as the lack of avocado (with avocado toast on the menu) or the paradoxical presence of industrial strawberry jam in small tubs made in Austria, when there is plenty of it just a few meters away hectares of land planted with strawberries, an authentic specialty of the area. And in any case Tobi will then explain to us that one of the reasons why a fresh product is not kept is the low presence of tourists in the hotel. Partly reasonable reason. And it's a real shame, because the surroundings are wonderful, starting from the Bukit Selong viewpoint. Again with Tobi we made the transfer to Senaru, at a more than honest price. The structure is certainly worth a stop to explore the beautiful surrounding area.

Nice location, view is stunning, especially from upstairs room but this means no private toilet in the room.
