Salak Butik Hotel in Bogor

Under the management of Hotel Salak, Salak Butik Hotel which located at Jl. Sangga Buana No. 5, 7, 11 & 13, Bogor has the same style and flavor as Hotel Salak. At first, It is quite shocking that actually they modified three or four houses to be integrated as one hotel. Physically, it is actually several houses, but in the reality Salak Butik Hotel has made those houses functionally as hotel.

Because previously this hotel was consist of several residential houses, it is very difficult to find facilities which is nearly possible to have in a hotel normally. I didn't see any swimming, football court or even tennis yard around the hotel.

But rest assured, at minimum they still provide meeting room and also dining room which is actually a spacious living room that has been modified to meet those purpose for meeting and dining.

We can see that they have similar decoration of room and design as Hotel Salak from the picture below :

Imagine that this residential house is actually a hotel. This is the main backdoor of the hotel actually. Right through this building we can walk in and finally will find the lobby in the front area of this building.














This hotel room has the sense of flavor and design which similarly derived from Hotel Salak. It is agreeable since they are maintainted under the sama management, the Hotel Salak management.
