Nice, clean friendly hotel which is perfect for a stopover before travelling onwards. Food is OK, we had pizza on two occasions, second time was undercooked but the Swiss salad was excellent. Staff are helpful.
Ottima colazione, varia e abbondante. Camera spaziosa con letti comodi. Frigorifero in camera con acqua, te e caffè. Personale molto disponibile. La Struttura necessita di manutenzione, ma è accettabile. Non abbiamo utilizzato la piscina perché vi era un numeroso gruppo di ragazze e ragazzi che facevano attività. La vista dalla nostra camera era squallida, ma non era rumorosa.
This hotel is located in the heart of Manokwari, close to the business and office district and directly adjacent to a shopping mall, making it very convenient for dining, casual meetings, or daily shopping needs. Overall, the rooms are still comfortable by West Papua standards and suitable for a stay of several days for work activities or training. The staff are friendly and helpful, although some rooms still feature an older design.
If you need a place to stay in Sorong because of your flight schedule and ferry schedule to Waisai, I recommend this place to stay. It is only 5 min from airport by car, and 10-15 min from Mall, so you can order food from many options from the mall.
There were many variety of breakfast, but I personally did not like any of the food. However, people around me was taking a lot so it must be good for local people.
I highly recommend Vogelkopf. The rooms are, bright, spacious, clean and nicely designed.. The AC is welcome in this humid climate. The whole property is pleasant and very well maintained. The staff is exceptionally friendly, helpful and efficient. The food is plentiful, varied and healthy; there are extensive vegetable gardens on the property. The coral at the house reef (snorkel the drop off to the right of the jetty) is even more intact than at Kri. The hotel is very convenient as not too far from the ferry terminal and the road becomes rough not long after the hotel. I wish I’d booked another night or two.
Overall, the place is good. Maybe not the best for foreign tourists. It’s more of a convention place for Indonesians. ATM is 15 minutes away walking. Plastic keys are a bit worn out but the room is very good. A view from my room and from the top floor is fantastic. Location wise maybe it could have been better to be closer to the ferry but a grab ride was only 50000 idr. Service was generally good but there were a number of misunderstandings all of which were resolved.
