Top Tambora Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indonesia Kempinski Jakarta

10/10 Excellent

"everything was perfect from the location of the hotel to the best bfast selection for hotel...staff was very friendly and helpful as well...only issue is its an old hotel and it does show...aircond in the room was not cool enough and some amenities provided seem old and need replacement, even their ironing board and iron were like from the early 90s and in sad state"

Jakarta Airport Hotel

8/10 Good

"Right at T2 departures, and just off the T2 skytrain connection walkway on level 2 (departures), this hotel is ideal for layovers. They even have a 6 hour layover deal. Good shower, good bed, excellent and affordable room service. The included breakfast is good and runs from 3am, ideal for early flights. There are escalators but no lift. The bellboy will move your luggage. Wished we'd discovered this hotel years ago."
