Find Hotels in Wonosobo, Indonesia

We found Kresna Hotel to be the best hotel in Wonosobo and not as bad as some earlier reviews. To be fair with Kresna, we can't compare it with 4 Star hotel in Yogyakarta or Jakarta. The building itself is lovely. We found by accident that the Superior Room upstairs was much better than the Executive Room at Ground Level, the only different is the air-conditioner which is about IDR 300,000 extra per night. Do stay with Superior and ask for a fan. You can open the window for cool air as the window is covered with mosquito netting. Breakfast is good enough although may not be the best. The Lobby is lovely and very spacious. The Wifi is definately the worst part of the hotel. Just can't understand why we can only get wifi at the lobby and not in the room. Otherwise, it should be an excellent hotel to stay especially if we want to go to Dieng area. Nevertheless, we certainly would like to come back to this hotel in our next trip to the region.

BBS was great! The staff (especially the madam) was nice and very helpful. The shared bathroom was so clean and they have hot water as well. Bed, living room, balcony, everything was great. Seriously worth the money :) we enjoyed to stay here and yes we will come back! However, this place is quite far from Dieng and you will always pay the entrance ticket in Dieng area. So, if you want to go to Dieng the whole trip, I suggest you to choose the homestay that is inside Dieng area. And yes, we hope BBS Homestay will open in Dieng area also ;)

Madam Ana, the host of Pondok Sendangsari, is a very warm lady. We contacted Theresia, Ana's daughter, by email to organise our travels around Dieng and arrange for airport transfer. All these were done perfectly and at very reasonable rates. The 3 cottages were very well maintained and clean. The stay included home cooked breakfast prepared by Ana and her helper. It was simple fried rice with some local produce and egg, but it was enough to start the day. We enjoyed our visits to the spectacular colour lake, the sikidang crater and the sunrise tour at Sikunir with friendly and patient driver, Mr. Andi. All the visits were arranged by Theresia. We also got a transport arranged from Wonosobo to Magelang(Borobudur) by her. It is advisable to base at Wonosobo when visiting Dieng as the homestay rates are much lower and the temperature at night is not as cold as in Dieng area. The nights temperature when we were at Wonosobo in September were around 12 to 17 deg C. It will be a few degrees lower in Dieng.

I traveled with 2 friends and we're all very happy with Griya Krakatau Homestay. Right after I made the booking on Agoda, Mr. Dwi (the owner) sent me a text message to confirm my visit and helped arranging for motorbike rent. Staying in the homestay was just as pleasant as our trip to Dieng Plateau, especially in the spacious terrace with mountain view! The weather in the homestay is a lot more bearable than in Dieng (the bedroom had a good insulation). It took about 45 mins from homestay to Dieng but with everything the homestay had and the view on the way to Dieng, the distance wasn't a big deal. Mr. Dwi casually checked on our travel plan and gave recommendation. Staying at Griya Krakatau Homestay was a lot more than having roof. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone planning to visit Wonosobo, Dieng or other area nearby. 5/5 stars!

I am grateful to Pak Ratno for hosting us and guiding us around Dieng. His home, with the rooms is clean tidy and well equipped. There are reliable hot showers and a lovely balcony looking out to the mountains and over a cornfield. The only drawback is that it is about half an hours drive to the village of Dieng and the Dieng plateau. That means it is warmer than Dieng (where temperatures can reach below 0 C. at night). The host is a very experienced guide who took us to many places we would never have discovered on our own.

Great value for money, booked 3 rooms for our group and had the place to ourselves. Owner made us breakfast in the morning which was plentyful and delicious (it wasn't included in the room price but he didn't charge us at all). The place was clean and had everything we needed including hot water for shower. Felt like we're visiting a family home rather than an accommodation place.
