Convenient in the vicinity

I have stay many times in IBIS hotel through out the world and I find it fascinating that the condition is quite similar. It make me feel very homely and comfortable. I hat a good rest everyday. the breakfast condition is also a fusions of local and international requirement. Moving around within the city and back to hotel is quite easy. Walk is the best policy as the street is clean and people are very warm. Nice place to visit. Only thing that we miss is the cultural centre which we did not manage to visit.

Super experience

Staff, especially in the dining room, are super helpful and friendly. Use of Novotel fitness facility was a real bonus. Room service was quick and efficient. I traveled in Borneo for 6 weeks, and this was, without exception, the best hotel - and it was NOT the most expensive. Location also very, very good. Wifi was available, and usage of the computers in the lobby was free. Yeah for Ibis!

Good value. Nice location.

Good value. Good location. Right next to Novotel. Better equipped than your usual budget hotels - with TV, free coffee making and in-room safe, and it is fairly roomy. Only thing i don't like is the toilet in the pre-made toilet cubicle is set rather high, so it'll be a hanging-toilet experience for most Asians.

Ibis Hotel Balikpapan

I was trying to book the (another hotel), which is pictured in the (internet travel company) add. (Internet travel company) has all the pictures wrong. The Ibis is behind the other hotel, but is connected in some ways. The price was good, and we could use the (other hotel) pool and gym. It's not far to walk around the building. The staff were very friendly and helpful and breakfast was very good. The few things we needed changed were taken care of very promptly, i.e. the last guest had locked the safe. The "modular" bathroom is a bit different, but all workable.
