The accomodation is located just a short walk from town making everything easily accessible. We booked our trek with them also. We did the 2 nights and 3 day trek and were led by knowledgeable guides who customised the trek to our needs. We seen many orangutans, various monkeys, hornbills and other stunning wildlife. We are vegetarian and all the meals were delicious. Best of all the guides are passionate about the health and protection of the jungle and take all ethical measures seriously. We also booked a day trip through them to see the one of the largest flowers in the world. It was an experience that we will not forgot. It was an incredible experience!!! Highly recommend to anyone looking to visit Bukit Lawang.

Sweet dog and cat were also welcoming and slept under my room’s door at night.The room was simple but very clean with beautiful garden setting.

There was nothing not to love here. The property was clean and well-located, the staff went above and beyond for us by helping us organize rides and activities, the bed was quite comfortable, and the food at the restaurant was tasty and cheap. With the river running by so close, it felt like we were staying at an alpine lodge!
The family running the guest house is extremely kind. We couldn’t recommend this place enough.
Make sure to bring cash with you, though. As of writing this it’s a cash-only town with the nearest ATM about 7km away.
Medan
À la carte and Asian breakfast options with local specialities, fruits and juice are available. At the guest house, the family-friendly restaurant is open for dinner and lunch and serves Indonesian cuisine. Host was super nice and helped us with organising currency exchange, phone card (for internet connection), and drivers to various places. She is very helpful and communicative, you can just ask her about the ideas where to go around if you have some spare time. The cooking is also amazing (we regret not asking about the recipe for fried rice, which is totally worthy of recommendation)! The area was clean and aesthetically pleasing. There is also air conditioning in the rooms. A note for those who think about renting scooters: roads in the area are a bit bumpy and driving is really different from what westerners are used to. From our experience at least, it seems safer to hire drivers.

It is all about location, location, location. The view is exceptional. Room was clean, quiet, and very comfortable. Nice bed. Robert was a great host and super helpful. The homestay is still relatively new, but he's been in the area for years and knows it very well. Took a one day tour with him and a few other guests. It was fantastic. Things, culture, people, and places I never would have found otherwise. Wish I could have stayed longer.
Great hosts, nice food, good beds, cheap and good scooter for rent (120idr per day including gasoline and helmets). Great value for money!
We had a great time at the guesthouse. Brian is a great host and is mindful of his community and the environment. He invests in those who have need of it. We arranged our jungletrek through Brian and had a great time spending two nights on the jungle with Brosit and the guys. We lacked nothing and learned a lot about the animals we saw. Great experience!
The hostel is located right on the calmer parts of the ocean on a lagoon. It is an amazing property with wonderful people, great host Arif and his lovely family who runs this place. The two surfing spots are around 20 minutes drive each, which make this location quite quiet, and the hostel has very good social vibes, and overall a place where you will come for 2 days and end up staying 2 weeks.
The guest house is located within walking distance to town centre/market. Room is spacious for one, I had very nice sleep. The host and his family are very friendly and helpful in giving travel advices. I went to the Mt. Sibayak tour with them which I really enjoyed. Price is depends one the group size but it's reasonably cheaper from what you can get from Klook. Few options for breakfast to choose from which is lovely!
The bungalows are super cute! The hosts are lovely, speak excellent English, and organised a pick-up from the bus station. You can get some food and drinks at the guesthouse for cheap, and the walking street is not far. Room and bathroom are kept clean. Basic room, but comfortable. Only three bungalows, so it can be booked out very fast!
Clean and quiet homestay. Great host, he provided information and was very interesting talking with. Comfortable beds, hot shower (just short, because the boiler is small).
Great location in Bukit Lawang, lovely grounds and outlook directly over the river. Beautiful teak rooms with outstanding bathroom facilities. Rooms and the whole guesthouse are spotlessly clean. Very comfortable beds and importantly, a quiet room upstairs . Indra and Nana, and all the staff are wonderful, and very friendly. The restaurant food is great - you wouldn't even need to go elsewhere to eat. Thankyou Indra and Nana.
This guesthouse is well located on a quiet street near to good restaurants and the centre of town but its key asset is Erwin - the guesthouse director. He is warm and friendly and takes his time to chat to everyone and to help you organise tours. A true host. Note: many other reviews mentioned the noisy bar next door. I wonder if they’ve toned it down lately? We heard music but it wasn’t loud and didn’t go late.
The View guest house has stunning views overlooking Air Manis. Wonderful, friendly, helpful host. Clean rooms and a good breakfast. Walking distance to beachside village and Air Manis. Also possible to walk into town along a quiet cement trail with lovely trees etc. (pedestrians and the odd motorbike only). You can see monkeys along the trail and also some interesting Chinese graves. The guesthouse is in the perfect spot. Beautiful sunsets from verandah and front rooms.
