Overall no complaints or whatsoever for our stay at IBIS. Would recommend any one to stay. The only dissapoitment is that I got a much small room than what I got on my last visit, but this not their fault.

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.

The staff, the food, the room, the general atmosphere, the location, and the room prices makes this Ibis hotel a must see when in Balikpapan.

Un petit-déjeuner différent à chaque jour et de la variété. Bon emplacement. Le personbel parle un peu l'anglais et les chambres sont propres. Toutefois, le gymnase et la salle de déshabillage sont sales et rien ne fonctionne! Vraiment sale en plus et pas de savon dans les contenants ou il y a les douches. La serviette qu'on m'a donne était très tachée. Il n'y avait pas de clé pour ouvrir les casiers et aucun personnel.
