龐卡蘭布翁阿爾瑟拉酒店(Arsela Hotel Pangkalan Bun)

The room is big and clean the green garden is nice

I informed with quite an advance(4 days) that finally I couldn't enjoy my reservation (flight changed by the airline) and I asked them to cancel the night, but they refused. Of course the booking policy was not refundable but I would have appreciated their consideration and having back my money. I warned in advance, I asked kindly, but no way. Well, it wasn't their obligation but it wasn't so difficult.

Nice relaxed hotel. Big rooms. Well-appointed breakfast. Nice grounds. 2nd floor has no elevator so you have to climb.

酒店並不位於 Pangkalan Bun 的中心，但它是開展各種活動的良好起點。早餐很豐富，晚上您可以在餐廳吃得飽飽的。 大花園邀您流連忘返。房間可以重新刷一層油漆。不太乾淨，有點發霉的味道，鏡子應該換新了。 工作人員很友好，根據要求更換了羽絨被。

Overall oke.

This is great value for money the night before of after your experience in the Borneo jungle. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff is friendly. The hotel has a nice garden in which you can enjoy your breakfast. There is an omelet station in the garden, but apart from that, breakfast options are few. Breakfast is ok, but nothing to write home about. We had dinner at restaurant and we had no complaints. This hotel is the best hotel on the "right" side of town, i.e. close to the airport and Kumai, from where the kelotok boats depart. Picking another hotel would add more time to your transfer (even if it may still be the standard price of IDR 70k).

Wir haben im Ganzen drei Nächte in diesem Hotel geschlafen. Wir hatten hier gebucht um vor und nach unserer Orangutan Tour einen Anlaufpunkt zu haben. Wer keine riesen Ansprüche hat, dem können wir dieses landestypische Hotel weiterempfehlen. Das Preisleistungsverhältnis stimmt. Auch die Hotelmitarbeiter waren immer sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Hervorzuheben ist das angeschlossene Restaurant in welchem wir sehr gut gegessen haben. Im Hotel konnten wir uns einen Roller ausleihen (danke an den Hotelmitarbeiter welcher deinen privaten Roller zur Verfügung gestellt hat) mit welchem wir die Umgebung erkundet haben. Jedoch haben wir trotz langem Suchen nichts gefunden, was wirklich sehenswert ist. Vielleicht habt ihr ja mehr Glück 😉

We stayed here before and after a three day tour into the rainforest to see orangutans in wildlife. The hotel is nicely located between airport and city center. It is about a 2km walk to the yellow Palace and waterfront city. The walk along the street is a bit unconvenient but doable. There are no taxis at night so plan carefully. The hotel itself offers spacious rooms with AC. The rooms are a bit outdated from European perspective but I have seen far older furniture and bathrooms and far more expensive hotels in the US and elsewhere. For the price, the rooms are more than you can expect. Breakfast was included and offers mostly indonesian food. There is also a cafe/restaurant offering western food. Overall, we would choose this hotel again for a stay in the area.
