Margo Utomo Eco Resort

Stay here before and after mount raung climb. Near train station and plenty of food options nearby too.

The hotel is conveniently located near Kalibaru Station, providing easy access to Ketapang (for Bali) and Banyuwangi city (for the Ijen tour), just an hour by train. The hotel features its own dairy farm with fresh milk, and offers activities like spice and coffee plantation tours. For adventure seekers, the basecamp of Mount Raung is only 20 minutes away by car, with a hike that takes at least two days and one night. The swimming pool is large and clean, and the garden is well-maintained. The hotel has a good restaurant offering a variety of Indonesian and Western dishes. Wi-Fi is reliable, though the TV had no signal, and there was a brief power outage, quickly resolved with a backup generator. The staff are friendly and helpful.

What a wonderful place to stay! The hotel is set in a beautiful, well-maintained garden and offers complete tranquility. It’s the perfect spot to truly unwind. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, which makes the stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

We stayed one night here on our tour before crossing to Bali. What a wonderful little place with lovely gardens and staff! They welcomed us with a drink, rooms were clean, bed decent. Overall was a nice little one night stop in Java that our group liked

I stayed here as part of an Intrepid tour around Java. The room was very comfortable and had everything one would expect in it. The hotel grounds were so nice - you can get an idea from my photos. There was a large pool which was enjoyable. The restaurant had a nice menu and the food was good. And the breakfast buffet was good too. The hotel has its own bakery which also supplies local shops. There is also a dairy and visitors can tour both of these. My stay was short, but very enjoyable.
