Top Tambora Hotel Reviews

Oakwood Suites Kuningan Jakarta

10/10 Excellent

"I was very impressed with the property and the upgrade I received to a suite. This more than made up for the lack of communication when trying to organise an airport pick up."

Pan Pacific Jakarta

8/10 Good

"Everything was great the day I arrived there was demonstration so roads were closed sadly wasn't informed before hand so couldn't account for it, usually hotels will send out notifications but when I called them they provided an alternative route unfortunately it still took half my day to get to the hotel. The room itself was very nice and cosy, great service, an pool was nice and gym was typical."

Jakarta Airport Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was clean and well maintained but no swimming pool and the ac didn't cool the room the way I needed I have seizures so a cold room is important. Other then that staff was amazing and hotel itself is in fact beautiful. It's still worth the experience if they upgrade the ac and have the pool running it would be fantastic One day I look forward to returning i hope these get fixed because both me and my fiance really enjoyed our stay."
