The staff were just amazing. Such a friendly nice atmosphere, really welcoming and felt very homely. It’s quite simple but that’s what you need and everything was lovely!

A great place to stay. Rooms were clean and beds very comfy. We booked several hikes, a massage, and ate all our meals here during our visit to Bukit Lawang. The hikes will remain some of our very best memories ever. The staff, both within the guesthouse, and our hiking guides, and our driver to and from Medan were all wonderful. I have wanted to see the Orangutans for some years, and this trip fulfilled that for me. As a bonus we got to see the world’s largest flower, as it happened to bloom while we were there. Loved the monkey parade past our balcony each day. Sam runs an excellent business and manages a great team.

Super location in village, the staff were very warm and helpful in every way. Vyca was exceptionally helpful and arrange our tours and transfers with great professionalism and good humour. It was super!

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

Everything. Tia is an exceptional host and great chef. All ingredients for every meal were fresh and delicious. Nothing was too much. Tia organised a superb jungle trek through the reputable government group and our guide Eddie was brilliant. It was amazing to see orangutans completely in the wild. The location is simply perfect, being the last place on this side of the river. The views are wonderful. Everything is kept very clean. This is a home from home, run by the heart.

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.

Asim Paris is more than a guesthouse, it’s a home away from home. The staff are more than welcoming- they become your best friends while maintaining their professionalism. They’re ready to support you with anything and everything you need. They will arrange excursions for you such as jungle trekking, BBQs, rafting and more. They serve delicious food, the rooms are comfortable, fully equipped and nicely furnished. With hammocks to relax in, the river at your doorstep and the golden Sumatran sun, I couldn’t think of a better location to stay while visiting Bukit Lawang. Located just outside the hussle and bussle of Gotong Royong, a lovely romantic walk away from the action, Asim Paris provides a quiet sanctuary a stones throw from the national park. Immerse yourself in local culture or take some time for yourself, admiring the incredible jungle backdrop. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

- easiness of booking everything ( example jungle orangutan tour, elephants etc) with the property

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!
