Traveling to Indonesia? Find West Kalimantan hotels

I am really impressed with such a kind of hospitality and great service from all the hotel stuff, thanks guys for your smile and great hospitality. Only one concern as 3 stars hotel and having foreign guests it was really stressing when you can't accept foreign currency like Malaysia ringits, especially that no exchange office near by the hotel and I have to go from up to down to get a drink bill paid, this was the only frustrating part. Otherwise every thing is really great.

Even though i had read some poor reviews about this hotel, I was truly disappointed with my own experience! I really only chose it because it offered the convenient option of paying on arrival. The room was spacious but the only electrical socket was across the room from the bed, so I had to ask the bellboy to find an extension cable for me. The bed-sheets & towels were clean, but there was a big blob of dried toothpaste stuck in the sink! The staff were very patient & helpful - especially considering I had to call them for assistance 8 times! - but I was given the wrong information about breakfast and travel to the airport. But my main complaint was about the air-con, which did not work at all - the first 3 times the engineer came to see about it, he fiddled around with some tools; the 4th time, he filled it with water; and the 5th time he filled it with gas! In the end, I pushed the heavy bed over to the open window and slept there on & off through a very sweaty night!

In general, it was great stay at the Aston Ketapang City Hotel. Because it is one the best hotel of the city of Ketapang. Not quite far from the airport. The area is calm and not so crowded, eventhough the location just on the side of the main street.. On the otherhand, the shopping area can be reach by walking for 5 minutes from Hotel. Eventhough, the breakfast not so good, but at the outside hotel, we can found many delicious traditional food.

i stayed one night, the room was clean, comfy and well decorated. Especially the Bathroom is CLEAN, with good pressure on the Shower. Breakfast for 2 people is quite good, served in buffet style with various kinds of foods. During night time i did order some food from the Cafe and it taste pretty nice as well. Lastly, I feel satisfied with the service of the staff, Internet connection is good as well and i would definitely recommend this hotel.

I was in this hotel on February 19, and on August 2019, and i will stay this hotel in future if i visit this city, because hotel 4 star but price is more cheaper then 3 star hotel some way, and totally clean with big size room, but i didn't communicate much with stuff so i don't get better service, as per my personal experience i thought they will give more smile even i am not from west, ( i thought because I am black brown asian so they doesn't given me big smile (lol) ) bythe way i really love this hotel

This is an old hotel, i think the boss have to totally renovate the hotel corridors, change the carpets, re-design the interiors especially the room because many seeing spots are old feelings. All the hotel staff are good, helpful with smiles. The Parking lot is quite big, i have no problem parking my rental car, secure parking stay overnight. Although the hotel stuff stay old, buat all functioning, water faucet good, shower good, toilet good. one thing bad is the exhaust fan, quite dirty, sometimes the black dust falling down. The Location is one of the best, you can find various tasty foods you want, you can try " Nasi Ayam / Nasi Campur Pontianak " , " Bakso Pontianak", " Sate Madura", " Pecel Madura ", " Choipan Pontianak ", " Bakpau Pontianak", " Dodol Duren ", " Dodol Lidah Buaya", " JuHi / Sotong Pangkong ", and many moreeee.....yummy delicious :D To enjoy more Pontianak, better you rent a car, you can as ke hotel guy to help you, i rent the car rp.250.000,-/day ( driver not included), so you can go everywhere you wanted. Weather in Pontianak is quit hot, but combined with little rain. I enjoy my 4 days trip visiting my wife parents, together with my lovely wife and 2 funny kids.

We come in many hotels all over the world 4,5 and 5+ star hotels. In Kapuas Palace you feel as a king. First of all great staff. The General Managers is lucky with such wonderful friendly employees. Also the food is very good. I recommed the soto ayam. The hptel is near by the big market. We are sure we come back to Pontianak and this hotel you feel comfortable. The price/ quality is 10 points out of 10. Thanks that i was your guest. A beautiful memory.

This hotel is centrally located and easily accessible to all places of visitation, including the biggest Roman Catholic Church (just 10 mins walk) & a 24hrs gov't clinic round the block + a supermarket next door. Being a vegan ... there are 5 food outlets around our hotel. The biggest wet & dry morning market (Pasar Flamboyan) is just a 5mins ride, while enroute to a big Aloe Vera Plantation. Take a short 30 mins walk to a ferry jetty, where one can board a ferry, to cross the Kapuas River (only 15min ride) via a street selling local products for tourists. From here, the infamous Equator Monument is just a 15mins ride away. Visit in the evening, to enjoy walking along the Waterfront and fountain views (adjacent to this jetty). The hotel taff are indeed pleasant, friendly and very approachable too ... from doormen/porters, receptionists, coffeehouse staff and housekeepers. Indeed, we enjoyed our memorable stay.

the hotel is modern, clean and well staffed with friendly, english speaking receptionists that go the extra mile to meet the needs of guests. the staff were very helpful to me and the in-house restaurant was very good. nearby food outlets were excellent also. there is a large mall within about five minutes walk of the hotel, and a lot of other shopping within short taxi drives. the hotel is about 25 minutes from the airport, taxis are inexpensive and there are lots of them. when i go back to pontianak in the next few months we will use this hotel again. if i was a business person i would be happy about the free wireless access but might like a room that is a little bit bigger with a desk or table for using a laptop.

Great hotel with nice rooms and friendly staff. From the arrival to the departure we were very happy. The room was very clean and comfortable. The manager even approached us at breakfast to ask if everything was fine and if there was anything extra we might need. The breakfast was the best of our trip, both in variety and quality. No complaints at all, would stay there again.

Best budget 3 star hotel to stay for price MYR 74/-. I stayed one night here. Then 2nd night at G Hotel. The worst hotel I stayed in my life. Please do not stay in "G Hotel" Again 3rd night I shift back to Hotel Kini. The best hotel in pontianak if you want to stay near Yosuf cathedral and water front. Standard rooms are big enough and good BF. Also Santika is good hotel nearby.

We stayed at MyHome hotel for 4 nights in a "Deluxe room". We stayed there as we thought it is a new hotel and close to our relative place. Hotel appearance was decent. For a Deluxe room, it was still very small. Room was reasonably clean. The hotel offers karaoke service hence there were lots of people (non-hotel guests) coming in/out. Our biggest problem with the room/hotel was their non-smoking policy. We believe their non-smoking policy is just for show and no one actually enforces it. Our first room had cigarette smell, burned marks on chair and remotes and there was even an ash-tray on the table. We complained and their staff denied any knowing of smoking in the room. As our room was on 7th floor (karaoke service is on the 8th floor), it was very noisy until midnight. Finally we requested to move to another room and even though the smell was better, there was also an ash-tray in the room. In the lobby, people smoked freely in an air-conditioned area, right under No-Smoking sign and in front of Hotel staff. However no one said anything and that seems to be accepted. Overall, even for $25, We wouldn't stay at this hotel again.

The Gardenia Resort and Spa provides a calm oasis gateway to the city of Pontianak and the exploration of West Kalimantan. Our stay there provided us with a great arrival spot and then, on return, a place to relax and recover after our journey.The staff are more than helpful, the rooms are spacious and comfortable and we are planning to return with a group ext time and take advantage of the water park and hte activities offered.

The staff was totally awesome - very friendly and helpful... both my friend and I have no transport and the staff offered to send us around the town, be our guide of the day and finally send us off to the taxi stand, to go off to Pontianak... About the stay... The hot shower has just fixed few days before we reach but apparently the wifi was down.. Breakfast was ala carte and was send to our room... good one but it will be better if we can step out from the room to have it.. haha!! Something to note... the hotel do not accept any non legal couple.. if you are travelling with your friend of opposite sex, you would need to book 2 rooms..
