Indra Valley Inn Bukit Lawang

Bukit Lawang

Featuring views of the mountains, jungle and river, Indra Valley Inn Bukit Lawang offers accommodation in Bukit Lawang. It is located on the bank of Bahorok River and offers free Wi-Fi access throughout the property. We had a great family stay. The personnel was very kind, the room was spacious and had a nice view. We did not eat at their place (went to other restaurants) but we did a jungle trek with them. We had an amazing guide who helped us carry in the jungle our 2-year old child. The 2-day trek was adapted to our family needs. We also used laundry and massage services recommended by the owner. All was perfect.
