Reviews and Ratings
Staying at this hotel felt like a serene retreat in the heart of a lush tropical rainforest. The traditional Indonesian design of the cottage was a unique experience, though the dining options were somewhat limited. The quiet location by the river offered a perfect escape with a mix of nature and luxury.
Staying at Elroa House was a unique experience. The charming bamboo rooms within a natural environment surrounded by trees near the river offer a perfect setting for relaxation. However, the distance from the lobby and restaurant can be inconvenient.
