Hotels near Cibodas Botanical Gardens

If there is one thing I learned from our previous visit is that this is one of the best place for escaping Jakarta. And simply another great stay at a great hotel.

- Reception: fast action & well prepared on guest documentation (I saw the bundles of files of the online booking info). - Officer : helpful & friendly. I booked during the weekdays via online apps (tr*v), the officer let me choose which room would be appropriate (Grace 21 or other I forgot the room #), as long as the price is still the same. They also let me borrowed the mop to double clean the room floor since I still found some debris inside the room. - Entrance gate : security guard should be on standby (when I arrived there, no guard standby). - Building : still have the old existing building (DIANA, GRACE, ALEXIS) - see the furniture themselves in the attached photos. There is a new storey (3 floors) : Ameera (looked like hotel rooms) with the rooftop area for sunbathing if the sun is available (I was there during the rainy season). - Furniture (on the GRACE building that I rented) : still applicable even though they are old enough. - Room of GRACE : I chose the one that has a living room. There are 4 chairs, 1 table, 1 TV (no coverage wifi connection - better go outside for sightseeing), 1 wardrobe with 1 clothes hanger, 2 queen beds, 1 bathroom with 1 wastafel & shower, each bed has 2 pillows & 1 blanket (I got the itchy rash experience sleeping with those pillows due to the high humidity inside the room, with low sun rays), 4 bath towels (should remind the officer to provide them), 4 bottles of mineral water (at first, we got 2 bottles only but after request, the officer gave the right bottles), 1 towel drying rack, 1 water heater on the bathroom (the water flow was quite swift). - Swimming pool : during my stay here, we didn't swim because of the cold weather of course the pool water was cold too (there were some leaves falling on the swimming pool & the water was murky). No idea how much was the depth of the pool. - Restaurant: daily (ala carte) breakfast during the weekdays was fried rice + fried noodle+ sunny side up+shrimp crisp+sambal+pickled cucumb

I was searching for an accommodation around Taman Safari area on app and this hotel was one of the hotels the platform suggested. I was considering some hotels before I decided to stay at this hotel instead, based on the photos online. However, after we arrived at the property, I was quite surprised that the room was not as good as we expected, but with the amount of money paid. The hotel is acceptable. As a hotelier myself, I believe the hotel needs some renovation. Being at the centre of Puncak, the humidity obviously affects the physique of the building. Anyway, we enjoyed our stay and I think with the breakfast package included in the price, it is another plus point for this accommodation!:)

Improvement for more menu at breakfast time.
