Hostels in East Java, Indonesia

The hotel owner, an older sister, is incredibly kind and caring. My brother didn't return to the hotel that day, and when she couldn't reach him, she called the police. When she found him, he had already been in an accident and was in a semi-conscious state. She kept in touch with me, took my brother to the hospital for examination, arranged a ward and doctors, and even helped find a caregiver and contacted embassy staff. She truly is my brother's savior! When my brother's parents went to Surabaya, she also arranged their airport pickup and helped take care of them. She's such a wonderful person! (And her Chinese is excellent!)

Everything was great, except for the bathroom facilities. There was no hook for towels, no hairdryer, and the sink was clogged. The restaurant's main course menu offered a good variety and the food tasted delicious. However, the dessert and drink options were limited and not very flavorful, in my personal opinion. Suggestion: It would be even better if there was a spot on the rooftop to watch the sunrise and sunset.

A Top Stay in Banyuwangi! A fantastic hostel with clean, spacious dorms, comfortable beds with privacy curtains, and modern facilities. The friendly staff go above and beyond, helping with local tips and Ijen Crater tours. The cozy common areas and well-equipped kitchen make it a great place to relax and meet fellow travelers. Conveniently located for exploring Banyuwangi, it’s an excellent value for money. Highly recommended! ⭐ Rating: 5/5

A very cheap choice. Not much facilities provided by the hotel, for example no dryer, shampoo and bath gel. The room has locker, pretty small, my luggage doesn’t fit in, so I just place my suitcase outside the capsule. I think it’s okay because Indonesia is quite safe. Staff are helpful, check in and out is quick. Nice for an overnight short stay if you have a low budget.

I've stayed at many hostels while traveling around the world, and this is the best. The Snooze Malang staff, in particular, are even more dedicated to service than other Snooze teams. They welcome guests warmly and are always ready to help. The garden is peaceful and beautiful. There are many restaurants nearby, and even a small traditional market is within walking distance, making it convenient for exploring. It's also within walking distance of the train station. Although it's a hostel, it's a quiet place to rest. The only downside is that the shower water pressure is weak. They clean the rooms daily and even every other minute, and they even lift the beds to clean them daily. I highly recommend this place.

Very clean, the boss is very nice, both are very nice, the location is very convenient, very close to the train station, suitable for friends who are going to Ijen next stop. I strongly recommend everyone to stay here, and I will choose here next time I come to Malang. Oh, by the way, the laundry service here is really good, the clothes are fragrant, folded neatly, and packed well in bags. The price is very cheap, only 6 yuan per kilogram 😆

I absolutely adored my stay at this guesthouse! The beauty is in every detail of the interior! I admired every corner and took pictures on all the armchairs :) It's a very clean and incredibly cozy little hotel, with super friendly, polite, and caring staff, and at a great price too! We stayed here for three nights and had a wonderful rest. I also really liked the town! We came to Banyuwangi to climb Mount Ijen. We booked the tour right at the reception for 345,000 per person, and we were very happy with it! It was a standard program with transfer, guide, coffee break and breakfast, climbing the volcano and descending to see the blue flames, including medical certificates and a photo-video report. Very convenient and comfortable. After the night excursion, it rained during the day, and we recharged our batteries in the warmth and comfort; we didn't even want to leave this magical place. A huge plus is the accessible kitchen for guests. The ladies try so hard to create a pleasant atmosphere; there were bouquets of fresh flowers on every table. I don't think I've ever seen such care and love put into their work and the hotel. Thank you so much! 🙏

A warm and welcoming place to stay, run as a family business. You will meet the owner’s mother, sister, and the owner themselves—all lovely and very friendly. The rooms feature brand-new, spacious beds that are extremely comfortable. The surroundings are peaceful, with a strong sense of local community and rice fields all around, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet place to stay and heartfelt service that makes you feel like part of the family. You’ll thank me later.

The hotel is very comfortable, the service is very satisfactory, the rooms are clean and tidy. The location is quite strategic on the side of the road, easy to access anywhere. The security level of the hotel is also very good and satisfactory

Good service, spacious parking, far from the crowd, nice, quiet & clean. Complete facilities close to everything.
