We reached the hotel at about 9pm in the night. We were served ginger tea as a welcome drink. On a cold night, the drink was perfect. The reception area was at the ground level and all the rooms were constructed downwards along the hill-slope. We were allocated rooms which were about 3 levels below the reception counter. The lift... More

This hotel serves it's purpose if you are visiting Mount Bromo. Rooms are basic, bathrooms ok for 1-2 nights. We stayed 1 night to visit Mount Bromo at 3am the next day. I guess the surroundings are so scenic, you wouldn't want to spend too much time in the hotel anyway. Not much choice for breakfast though - fried rice,... More

I followed a large group of students to visit Mount Bromo and from what I understand, this hotel is the most centrally located. The landscaping is nice and the view of the mountains pleasant. But the room was a real disappointment. The room was extremely dim due to the lack of lights. There was no kettle which would be useful... More

Bromo cottages is an excellently situated hotel on the slope of hill. Infact, its the only good hotel over the bromo mountain. Its a recently constructed hotel with renovation going on. The road leading to hotel is not good and it has a sharp slope also, make sure your brakes are working properly. The view is excellent as all the... More

I travelled a lot and never stayed in a hotel like this. In one word: miserable! they take advantage of their location and the lack of other options. Service was unpersonal and everything was too expensive! By far the most expensive hotel we stayed in java and by far the worst. Room for us dollar 90 and restaurant charges 55.000... More

If you want to visit Bromo, this is certainly the best place to stay, and it's pretty close to the volcanoes. But this doesn't make it a good hotel. I must say that the staff was nice and friendly. The room was very basically equipped and rather dark, with a limited amount of hot water in the morning, and freezing... More

I have to agree with previous comments: the position is excellent if you are visiting the Bromo, but everything else is definitely below average: service rather unprofessional, rooms dark and cold at night. Dinner extremely expensive for Java. On the bright side: they make a very good ginger tea. If you arrive there before 6pm and you go for a... More

most expensive hotel in Java - poor service and junk food - but not much alternative if you want to see the great Bromo volcano.... So, if i would go back and if Bromo is on the list to see, i would try to arrive in the morning and find a Bed somewhere in the village - the food on... More

There is some sort of temple or bar next to the hotel, which blasted music constantly. Unfortunately we seemed to be in the room closest to the music- the music blared continously the whole day and most of the night. I complained to the hotel staff who didnt understand what I was saying- they laughed politely and said 'ok, ok'.... More

Room was grotty yep the view was great - the toilet was broken and they failed to fix it, the dinner was basic and expensive, the breakfast was pathetic, towels were old and grotty, they were waiting like vultures to clean our room...
