For a staycation with my wife at De Boekit Villa Hambalang, we chose to stay in the Honeymoon Suite Villa. The location is in a fairly densely populated village area, but once you enter the resort, the atmosphere changes completely—beautiful, green, with gardens, rice paddies, orchards, and views of Bogor City and Sentul from above. Because the terrain is hilly, the resort also provides a shuttle to and from the villa to the restaurant or lobby—very convenient!
The staff service was excellent, almost everyone was friendly and helpful. We tried lunch at the restaurant—ordered pizza and coffee, which was quite good. That evening, we ordered room service Hambalang fried rice and De Boekit fried rice. Breakfast was a buffet style, with a decent selection and delicious food. However, refills were a bit slow, so when we arrived at 8:45, some of the chafing dishes were empty.
The facilities are quite good, with a shuttle, an adult pool, a children's pool, and a bird sanctuary.
The villa itself is spacious, about 35m², with a private hot tub with city views. The AC is cool, the Wi-Fi is fast, and the overall cleanliness is good. Prayer equipment is provided, along with a mini fridge and a SDB. Thank you also for the welcome chocolate with anniversary greetings. However, there are a few things that could be improved to make it more appropriate for the price of Rp1.8 million/night:
- The bed linen has quite a few stains.
- The towels smell nice but have a rough surface.
- There's no full-length mirror, only one in the bathroom.
- There needs to be a small table in front of the sofa.
- The curtains have gaps that let in sunlight, which is glaring and uncomfortable.
- The TV only has five local channels and often has signal interruptions.
- There are no tissues in the bedroom, only in the bathroom.
- The hairdryer hasn't been attached to the wall, making it a bit of a hassle.
- The shower holder in the Pangrango room was missing from the start.
- There's only one bath mat in the bathroom, even though one is needed near the hot tub.
- The bath amenities were inadequate, very basic, not suite-like—they needed to be added, such as cotton swabs, a shower cap, bubble bath, etc.
- The hot tub's hot water instructions were unclear; it turned out the faucet was in a different position, not a red knob.
Overall, this place has great potential. It's a comfortable atmosphere, a beautiful view, and the staff is responsive. But for the price, the facilities and details need to be improved to make it more recommendable. 👍
I've stayed at this hostel twice. The first time, the room was small but felt newer and better maintained. On my second stay, I booked a bigger room hoping for an upgrade, but it was a bit worn out — things like the door handle and table were damaged, and the blanket had an odd smell, like it hadn’t been cleaned properly. That said, the location is super convenient, and the price is really affordable. Hopefully, they can improve the room conditions in the future, because this place has a lot of potential!

Clean & tidy room.
Parking is circling, even though there are still many empty ones, but covered with cones.
The receptionist is rude, and after breakfast, the room can no longer be accessed, even though it is still far from check out time, so you have to go downstairs again to ask for access, and there is no explanation or apology from the receptionist.
For the restaurant, the service is good, and the food is delicious.

Nice ambience, inside local housing, a bit distance from main road so it’s quiet. It’s located not far from SICC and AEON Mall, and near to mini markets. Nice breakfast with choice of Indonesian food, good and helpful service from the staff. The hotel not that new so it maybe need some upgrade in some rooms but so far it’s convenient.
Stayed at dm one for one night. In general, it is enough for 3 stars. Only the executive room has windows. It is better because it has no windows at all, the bathroom is clean, the room is good, and the TV ac is OK. Only Zhang smells bad...please improve the cleanliness of the paper
