What I love about Teras Ijen Hotel in Banyuwangi is the natural rural atmosphere and the view of the green fields in the morning, which is very refreshing for the eyes. It's a wonderful place for me to relax and unwind. The rooms are very modern and beautifully designed. The staff are polite and friendly. I received a free upgrade because the room I booked was not available at the time, and I requested two adjacent rooms. I appreciate their effort to accommodate my request. Another thing I liked is the delicious hotel food. I ordered several dishes for dinner, and in my opinion, they were tasty.

What I found lacking was the swimming pool, which seemed quite ordinary. It felt like it was just there without much thought, looking too plain and not matching the surrounding area. I suggest making the pool more natural, like those in Ubud, Bali, perhaps by enhancing the walls or the area around the pool. Secondly, I felt the breakfast was somewhat lacking. It could be improved, for example, by offering simple snacks that are characteristic of Banyuwangi's local cuisine.

The serinity of the place, friendliness of the staff and spacious room with king size bed and very nice mattress made this a pleasant stay. A wonderful bonus was the in room Balinese massage we booked via the reception.

While dinner was of high quality and very tasty, the breakfast buffet was average at best. Most of the buffet food was cold and the choices not plentiful. The noise from other guests checking in late, staying outside for extended hours and people moving out noisely for the early morning Ijen tracking did not allow us to get a good rest on one of the two nights we stayed.

The architecture was unique and blend with the surrounding nature. We love the design. The room was quite large and comfy. The bathroom was nice. And all room have a balcony facing the ricefields. The staffs were also nice.

One thing that popped up on my mind while waiting in the lobby was: I can smell the bad odor from toilet since it was located right beside the waiting area of the lobby. There was a partition between them however I can still see the toilet because it was quite see-through. I suggest putting some vegetations or more solid partition to cover the bad smell and view in the waiting room of the lobby. The rest was really nice.

Clean and good facility. Great view on the rice fields. On the way to kawah ijen

The breakfast was served as buffet on the first day and a la cart on the second with no advance notice. On the second day it took long time to get the food deluding our departure. The staff should notify the guests in advance when the service change so that guests can adjust their schedule accordingly. No luggage assistance during the check out, and check out process a bit messy due to a cappuccino charge that took time and multiple calls to be settled , again delaying further our departure. Not major things, but the communications and interaction with gusts have to improve

Perfect location, in the middle of the rice fields. Mattress extremely comfortable. Large room equipped with individual terrace. Very good restaurant with qualitative food. Staff speaks English (that’s worth mentioning it compared to the other hotels we’ve stayed at in Indonesia)

Pool area could be modernized, and slippery tiles

The hotel is beautifully situated next to rice paddies but also just off the road so doesn't feel isolated or cut off. The room itself was spacious and simple but had everything necessary. The staff were kind and super accommodating of requests. The porch with the comfortable furniture was a huge highlight as we got to sit and enjoy sunsets with ease.

The staff were absolutely wonderful, stunning location, and excellent design

Would prefer more Indonesian food on the menu, versus Western menu for Taurus

The standard of the hotel is very good. Quiet location in rice paddies, about 40 minutes drive from Mount Ijen hike. Pool area is pretty nice and protected from views. We had a very relaxing couple of days here. Very friendly and helpful staff.

Ketapang ferry terminal is in a no Grab zone, if you need a driver you need to get outside a little. Also getting back to the city can be tricky, but the hotel provided a ride to the train station for 250k. Gojek seems not to be available in the area. The train to Probolinggo also stops in Banyuwangi which is a shorter ride. Ijen tour booked directly via the hotel is about 200k overpriced.

The room view was amazing, can enjoy rice fields and sound of the nature from our spacious terrace. Hotel looks new, fairly clean, and large rooms with connecting terrace, perfect for families!

Breakfast option was limited, but the portion and service was good. Unfortunately, the fruit platter that comes with the breakfast package was not very good. You might need to double-check when ordering food from the resto since there tends to be a mix-up. We ordered grilled fish but got gulai fish instead, but the taste was good so we still enjoyed our dinner. There was also a price difference between the menu and what we paid so better double check.

Rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable. Staff are super friendly 😀 The reviews weren't kindling about the food. My favourite meals the whole trip!!! The location was out of town so a very relaxed feel in the rice fields and other farms. Absolutely stunning 😍 You can borrow a complementary bike and ride around 🙏 Drinking water is provided where you can fill up your own bottle so less plastic! Also, there's a pool!!

Nothing, apart from the straw with my juice 🥤
