Edi, Indonesia

The 172 steps was quite a challenge but the view and peaceful location makes it worth the walk. Our guides Wang and Andre were very friendly and we had a fantastic day trek with them.

Megan, Australia

We loved the peace and quiet in On The Rocks as well as the friendly service. We booked a one day tour and the guides were really knowledgeable and trustworthy. The food in the restaurant is good and a decent price. Both drivers they arranged for us were safe and professional. We were really happy we chose OTR for our stay.

Chantel, Singapore

Nice, clean and big room. Mosqito-net & A/C existing. The hotel is located ca. 8min up the hill - the nature around is beautiful. Wifi by the reception/restaurant-area available.

Fabi, Switzerland

The friendliness and attentiveness of the staff was outstanding! The location of the lodge is spectacular. The activities available for residents, especially the jungle trek in the Gunung Leuser National Park and white water tube ride back to Bukit Lawang at the end of the trek, are unforgettable!

Urs, United States of America

The location is amazing - beautiful forest and Mountain View from some of the rooms and restaurant. The staff is VERY friendly and helpful and assisted in planing a tour in the national park(which is only a few steps away from the place).

Yael, United States of America

The property is a bit of a climb up lots of steps but totally worth it when you get to the top & feel like you’re in the jungle. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The food was great. My room was perfect-simple but everything I needed. The trek that the hotel arranged was fantastic and we saw lots of apes not just orangutans. I really enjoyed my time there & wish I could have stayed longer!

Nicola, United Kingdom

The staff is great, friendly, funny and helping you out with everything they can. I felt very welcome and home away from home. The accomodation is up high and it takes a few steps to get there, but the location is beautiful! Had an amazing time staying there.

Dennis, Netherlands

A great place to stay for holiday, comfortable & unique restaurant decoration. The food are okay with a very friendly staff.

Mona, Indonesia

For me, it's an exquisitely designed bungalow with well-maintained garden. Its own restaurant not only offer you a picturesque view over the village also provides delicious local cuisine. It is located half-way on the hill, you have to climb many stairs to get there, which could be tiring. But to get to the National park you have to past On the rock, so it's actually quite convenient for me. Moreover, the whole resort is running on a eco-friendly system.

The food at the restaurant was very hit and miss. Food was often extremely salty or extremely sweet. The satay and the Soto were very good though. The cold show was a little hard to cope with after coming home cold and wet from either rafting or a rainy day on the motobike.
The 172 steps was quite a challenge but the view and peaceful location makes it worth the walk. Our guides Wang and Andre were very friendly and we had a fantastic day trek with them.

The shower is pretty cold, but I think that’s standard in Bukit Lawang and adds to the jungle experience.

“If you want an excellent Sumatran jungle experience, On The Rocks is the place to stay!!!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • 2 rooms
- • Stayed 2 nights
Information about the steep ascent to the lodge (nearly 300 steps) and about some very steep terrain that we encounted during the trek would have prepared us better for the exciting adventure. The latter is VERY challenging for people with no-so-young knees. BUT the guides were exceptionally careful helping us safely reach to camp by the river!
The friendliness and attentiveness of the staff was outstanding! The location of the lodge is spectacular. The activities available for residents, especially the jungle trek in the Gunung Leuser National Park and white water tube ride back to Bukit Lawang at the end of the trek, are unforgettable!

It’s a 270 steps walk up the hill to get to the place so you are a little bit “stuck” there. Thankfully the place is so beautiful and the restaurant is nice so you don’t really want to leave.
The location is amazing - beautiful forest and Mountain View from some of the rooms and restaurant. The staff is VERY friendly and helpful and assisted in planing a tour in the national park(which is only a few steps away from the place).
