Featuring mountain views, Orangutan Bungalow in Bukit Lawang features accommodation, free bikes, a garden, a terrace, a restaurant and barbecue facilities. Complimentary WiFi is offered.

If you would like to discover the area, cycling is possible in the surroundings and the lodge can arrange a car rental service. If I could give a higher score than 10 I would! This place is in an unbelievable location, right on the edge of the national park. 3 days I was there I saw orangutans on the property and lots of other monkeys in the trees outside my balcony. Yes, it is a steep climb to get here but if you are doing a jungle trek you will need to walk up past the property to get to the national park anyway. If you arrange transport through them they will send someone to help with your bags. The food in the restaurant is amazing and very reasonably priced and there is lots of variety so you don’t even need to leave the property for meals! I got laundry done as well which was a bonus. The staff are super friendly and go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. I did the 2D/1N jungle trek with Orangutan Bungalow and it was incredible! The guides were fabulous, the food was wonderful and we saw so much wildlife that it was almost overwhelming at times. Yes there are bugs and geckos around but you are in the jungle so it’s to be expected. If you want sterile accommodation with air conditioning then you will have to pay a lot more than you pay staying here. Don’t stay anywhere else!

Situated in Bukit Lawang, Green Travelodge Bukit Lawang features accommodation with free WiFi and seating area.

The lodge offers an Asian or halal breakfast.

Guests at Green Travelodge Bukit Lawang can enjoy cycling nearby, or make the most of the garden. Locally-owned, slice of heaven in Bukit Lawang. The location is incredible.. quiet spot next to the river, but just a 3 min walk to the center. The service and warmth of the staff is next level.. The restaurant on site has amazing views and food. We booked our 2 night jungle trek directly with Green Travelodge, and we are sooo glad we did. We had the BEST experience in the jungle. Omar and Jon, our guides, knew the jungle and animals so well. We saw soooo much: orangutans, gibbons, pig-tailed macaque, lots of small critters and birds.. and so much more. It was a dream. Adan, the chef, was a magician. He made the best meals we have ever had.. the three guys became like family. We are so happy we booked here.. and will definitely be back soon.

Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with mountain or river views. Wooden open houses in the middle of the jungle with superb view. If you wish to experience the jungle: it is day and night around you with the sounds in the night; this is a perfect basic stay. We stayed here 2 nights with our daughter of 15 years old. Staf is excellent, very good cooking. Breakfast with banana pancake. Delicious Indonesian dinner in the evening. We booked a 1 day jungle tour with them and that was amazing. We walked in a small group of 5 including 2 guides. We had the luck to see an Oran Utang mother with baby very close to us already in the morning. End of the day we saw a big male oran utang as well, very impressive. Besides these we saw different kinds of monkey's. We had a lot of fun with our guides during the day.

Towels and bed linen are offered in the lodge. The homestay currently consists of three one-room cabins and a small house w/ a compact kitchen. It’s located in a quiet area away from the busy main road. The owner is a very kind elementary school teacher who lives near the homestay with his family. I stayed in one of the cabins and enjoyed the cleanliness, the hot water in the shower, the excellent WiFi, the exceptional view from the back porch, and the incredible hospitality of the whole family.
