I stayed here for 3 nights, although 1 night they were fully booked but kindly found me accommodation elsewhere. Sam and his family were wonderful hosts who organise everything for you. The food was excellent! I recommend the vegetable curry to anyone who likes a bit of spice. There are no flushing toilets or hot water but the rooms are... More

Big clean rooms, but as everywhere in Bukit Lawang, only cold water. Very friendly and helpfull staff. You have to walk about 20 minutes from the becack-station or have a motorbike to bring your gear to the hotel. You can swimm in the river at the hotel and it is close to the entrance to the National Park.

My boyfriend, my son (10 year old) and I were very happy to say that Sam's 3 nights package deal was an excellent choice for us. We paid IDR 4.5 million in total for 3 of us that was inclusive of private transfers to/from Medan, 3 nights in a 2 bedroomed bangalow and a full day jungle trek/rafting/lunch & snack... More

We had 4 lovely nights in this hideaway on the River. The surroundings are lovely although unfortunately there is construction going on right in front of Sam's so the view is occluded somewhat. The rooms are VERY basic and do not expect your room to be cleaned daily, as they are not and there is NO hot water. The staff... More

Our family of four stayed at Sam's for 3 nights (one night spent overnight on the junge trek) and were very happy with both our rooms and the hospitality shown by Ifat, Sam and their staff. The overnight trek with Sinar and his brother was amazing! Saw orang-utans, gibbons, Thomas Leaf monkeys and of course the naughty long tailed Macaques... More

My wife and I planned to stay elsewhere in Bukit Lawang but when we saw Sam's and met Ifat and her staff we decided to stay there. The restaurant is located right on the edge of the river with the rainforest just a few metres away. Our room was great; spacious, clean, big comfortable bed, nice bathroom good mozzie net... More

Stayed here for 5 days to go trekking, our hosts Ifat and Sam were super helpful, organised everything at a good price andwerealways around to help with questions and enquiries. For trekking the guide we had was Sinar, very helpful, knowledgable and great food at the camp. The camp is basic but adequate, definitely tke a dry bag to keep... More

We booked a 3 day " luxury" pkg to spoil ourselves- incl private car service to and from Medan, a 1 day trek and a 1/2 day adventure if our choosing. Sam and his wife are genuine, kind lovely people. They arranged everything .. We felt like actual guests in their home. We stayed 2 extra nights! Great location as... More

We stayed 3 nights at Sam's. We travel a lot but this was our first true jungle experience so it was a bit of an adjustment. Clean rooms, reliable electricity. Western style toilet but use bucket of water to flush. Cold water showers, refreshing after a hot day in the jungle. Nets over the beds. Excellent food at the restaurant... More
