I was not sure about the price as... More

Complete facilities for health oriented visitor, good breakfast, poor driveway up to the lobby for small car. Hot and cold pool spa, kids-adult complete needs swimming pool. A lot of wood in romms make it feel comfortable and easy. Need to replace with a proper size of room tv in a standard view point range.

I can definitely recommend this hotel. I was surprised by the very spacious and very pleasant room. The breakfast in the buffet restaurant is good, and in the evening a fresh fish (Select your own fish) and a Bintang beer by the poolside is excellent. Friendly and helpful staff and everything is very well maintained.

To be honest, there only a limited option of a "good hotel" in balikpapan. After browsing here and there, and referring to the rank, this is the chosen hotel. And yup, it was a nice one that we get. Spacious room, good AC in the weather like balikpapan

The twin room that I had was fairly large and clean but if you look at the tiles, you can tell that the hotel is showing signs of ageing. Walls seem to be fairly thin as you can hear noises when people pass by. Bed is fairly comfortable. Was told by the receptionist that there are limited rooms with double... More

Stayed at this hotel for 6 days for business purposes and because of the proximity to company offices. There is no other good reason to stay at this location. Some of the staff members were very polite and professional ( bellboys , room service and front staff), but service at breakfast was basically absent. Fetch your own coffee on most... More
