Quite Run Down
Danny T on 23/10/2017 22:50
Wifi is only available in the lobby, hotel condition is quite run down and very near to the loud speaker of the mosque.....not ideal for a light sleeper. However, the breakfast is good and the staff is friendly too. In general, the hotel is pretty clean too and very near many of the main attractions in Bukittinggi.
Basic @ Great STAFF

Happened to be in Bukittinggi over a long weekend so heavily booked. This hotel was one of only a few available online.
Booked through Expedia when I usually use Booking.com @ confirmed why I use Booking.com as reservation not recorded. Staff accommodating considering early morning arrival. As noted in another review, near the road is very busy.
Next day VERY helpful staff moved me to a room facing the mosque, which is very noisy early morn @ evening. Not as bad as continual noise from road!
No extras in room. Does have toiletries. Does get hot in Bukittinggi so a fan would've helped. Breakfast ok. No lunch or dinner although staff organised an omelette for lunch as I was very tired after overnight drive @ early artival in hotel.
Speaking of staff, they are SO helpful. Room etc always clean.
Probably not my pick if had other choices. Turned out well for 4 nights.

Benteng hotel is very old hotel, but nicely it was closer to any places in Padang such as Jam Gadang and Panorama. Breakfast was good but for me terrible things was just the rooms is like very old no maintenance. Wifi is only available in the lobby.
Ok hotel for couple of days

Positive: good bed, soft pillows, good shower pressure, nice location: quiet at night, friendly staff, good wifi only in lobby, indonesia breakfast is good
Deserves attention: european breakfast is very basic, no wifi in room, rooms are quite old.
If you want to make a tour through Bukittinggi area, I highly recommend Lite 'n' Easy Tour: liteneasy@hotmail.co.id
Pretty good for a few days

Nice staff speaking moderate English. Room was good with balcony but, didn't smell to fresh. Good wifi but only in the Lobby. Breakfast was good, they even made us a special Indonesian breakfast when we asked for it.
If you stay in Bukittinggi and you want to make a tour, I highly recommend Lite n Easy (fikar_bkt@hotmail.com).
