Review of Puteri Gunung Hotel 4*

We recently stayed at Hotel Puteri Gunung in Lembang and would rate our overall experience a solid 4 out of 5. Here’s a quick summary of the highlights and things to improve:
Pros:
The location is excellent—just about 2 km from Lembang’s town square, right on the main road, making it very accessible.
It’s a classic-style property with individual cabin-like rooms arranged on terraces, which gives it a nostalgic, retreat-like vibe.
Perfect for those looking to escape the daily grind and get back to nature. The whole complex has expansive open spaces with lush trees and rows of signature mountain pines, creating a very fresh and scenic environment.
Staff hospitality reflects authentic Sundanese warmth, beautifully showcasing the culture of West Java.
Cons:
Being an older hotel, some outdoor areas and children’s play facilities appear a bit neglected and would really benefit from maintenance.
Large spider webs can be seen in many corners among the plants and trees along the walking paths—it’s easy for guests to accidentally brush against them if they’re not careful.
Certain corners of our room were dusty, suggesting the cleaning could be more thorough.
The in-room amenities feel almost complete, but adding a small stove or microwave would really increase its value for families.
The warm-water pool area is quite small (just about 3–4 m²), so guests wanting to soak often have to wait their turn.
Overall:
Despite some shortcomings, we truly enjoyed our stay thanks to the beautiful natural setting, spacious grounds, and the famously friendly local service. Hopefully, these areas can be improved over time while maintaining everything that already makes the hotel such a special place.
Highly recommended for anyone wanting a classic mountain retreat in Lembang!
