Swiss-Belhotel Borneo Banjarmasin

Found it a bit oppressive with people from another culture, felt a bit uncomfortable.

hotelnya bagus dan free transport ke pasar apung. breakfast bagus dan lengkap

Clean and comfortable hotel in a good location on the river. Friendly staff, nice ambience, decent pool and the extra benefit of an early morning boat trip up river to the floating market. Definitely recommend.

Banjarmasin ist Banjarmasin.Floting market und dann kommt nicht mehr viel Aber nette Menschen überall. und ein tolles Hotelpersonal. Sie haben ihr Hotel im Griff

Really good hotel, very comfortable rooms. Staff is very friendly. The purpose of our visit was for sightseeing. We are exchange students from The Netherlands, currently studying in Jakarta, and we want to see as much of the country as possible. We visited the floating market, free for 1 person when arranged by hotel, Duta Malll, Dayak, rainforest and bamboo rafting and some sightseeing through the city. The location of the hotel is perfect, next to the water, so no other transportation to the floating market needed. Also very close to the city centre, just walking distance. We just walked from our hotel along the water to see the locals and to experience the distinct culture. In total, we stayed 4 nights in the hotel. A bit too long for the city, mostly used for business people and travels who stay here for just 1 night, but just for the hotel I would stay another night since it was really comfortable. Breakfast was mainly Indonesian, but tasty.

I had a small surprise when knowing that breakfast was not included on my booking. So, you have to be very careful read your booking condition or hotels.com should explicitly explain the booking condition easily without need to explore the whole webpage. Overall, the hotel was as explained, the building interior looks old but clean thou

Carpet at the third floor rather dirty

Liked the hotel design, which incorporates wood-carved design of local culture. Daily local live music in the lobby of local Kalimantan traditional music. Enjoyed that, except only at breakfast the music is a bit too loud and annoying early in the morning.

although the hotel is well located on the river bank central to the city thats where my good comments end. the menu in the restaurant is poor for an international hotel. as this hotel is multi story with no lift facilities it is very tiring carrying your luggage up and down stairs. very poor for a international standard hotel.
