I met wonderful local people at the lodge. We went tubing and elephant washing together. I had an unforgetable stay due to the kind-hearted, fun people I met.

Next to the river, elephants passed by, very friendly personnel and quick response by WhatsApp.

We stayed 2 nights but could have stayed more. I loved the location - beautiful garden setting and the views from the restaurant deck and our room looked straight across the river to a wall of rainforest. Adiel and his wife Mary were very helpful all through our stay. Mary's meals were spot on, and she will cook something different if you request and it's available. Room and bathroom were clean, comfortable and had a great outlook. Suitable for families, couples, singles. It's on the river - a few step to the bottom of the hill for a swim.I was there over the weekend and it was still peaceful, even with holiday visitors.

Great spot right next to the river to watch wildlife! Indra and the team were all very helpful and accommodating. Lovely food, teas and coffee on offer as well. Really enjoyed our stay overall.

I will tell you what to do: 1. Learn English 2. Buy flight tickets 3. Buy some rupees 'Uncle Sam' takes care of everything else (airport transportation, food, drinks, trekking, traveling in the forest... whatever comes to your mind). Opening your window curtains and seeing the Rainforest and the river... I'll be honest, I didn't expect this much. It was an incredible experience for me.

The room was huge with plenty of space, great balcony and location central to get to everywhere on the main street.

Good location, clean room, delicious breakfast, nice staff, very grateful for them to send me to the bus station! I spent three happy nights in there

Tia, the manager was fantastic from start to finish. I had called her weeks before arriving and she arranged the transfer from the airport, guide and was helpful in every way. The meals were good too and she was just great to be around. Kind and caring. The location is great and on the last morning an Orangutan and her baby came to feed on the Mango tree next to the bungalow.

I definitely reccomend booking your stay at Wisma! Can’t reccomend it enough. The family are lovely and so helpful! The food is delicious and very cheap! They really make you feel at home here. Hospitality was 10/10! You can also book your trek with them which I really reccomend. Supri, the guide, is soooo helpful and was the best! He was able to customise the trek to our needs and went out of his way to make us happy! We went on the trek with him and Rudy and they were both amzing! We saw so many orangutans and stayed in huts overnight. The food along the way was also incredible and so fresh! We loved it! Thanks to Supri and Rudy we had the best time. They are super easy going and relaxed while still always ensuring that everything runs smoothly and we are safe and happy. 10000/10! It’s also much better to book the trek with local companies like Wisma to help the jungle and Bukit Lawang. Larger companies like “Sumatra Orangutan Explore” are owned by larger overseas companies and they don’t respect the local people and jungle. So it’s much better to book with a local business. This also means that you will have a more personalised and friendly experience. The accomodation is so beautiful! It’s a close walking distance to anything you need, but far enough away from the hustle and bustle. It’s very peaceful and calm, it sits right on the river so you can easily pop down for a swim whenever you want. They have a beautiful garden where they grow their own fruit. The juices and smoothies are so greasy and delicious. The food was also the best we had in Bukit Lawang. I could stay forever and ever! Really can’t reccomend this place enough we had an amazing time and can’t wait to go back!

This is as good as it gets. The owner (Udin) is a very nice guy and helped me with organizing my jungle trek as well as transportation. The guesthouse is located in a very nice part of Bukit Lawang, surrounded by lots of nature. You can also take a dip in the river right in front of it. I was also very happy with the food. Small menu, but all the dishes were excellent, homemade and with local ingredients. You will not find western food here, which is a good thing.
