I stayed at the Bentani for nearly 6 months on business. I would highly recommend if you are in Cirebon for an extended stay to choose the Bentani. Service - service standards at the Bentani are high. The staff are friendly and I found staying there to feel very familial. I enjoyed spending time chatting with the staff during quiet moments. Food - the Bentani has several excellent restaurants. The main restaurant has a wide selection of Indonesian food and a smaller selection of European style food. A Korean, Japanese and Thai restaurant also feature very good menus. The Japanese restaurant specialises in Teppanyaki and Shabu-Shabu. The main restaurant is also where breakfast is served - a buffet of continental and Asian style breakfast options. The main restaurant has been recently refurbished to a high standard, but is sometimes quite crowded. The quality of food was high across the board. Alcohol - there is a wide variety of drinks on offer via the bar, Grizzly's, which has a pool table and live music. The Bentani also has a wine cellar that looks impressive but unfortunately is mostly full of empty bottles. This may be an enduring impact of COVID, which I can understand. The wine list is primarily basic Australian and some Indonesian wine, with a couple finer bottles available (one champagne, one Penfolds) if you're willing to pay the prices. However, for an IDR 300k corkage charge, they will let you drink your own wine, so I would recommend bringing some wine if you're that way inclined. Rooms - the rooms are a good standard with large beds, A/C, TVs and convenient power sockets by the bed. The bathrooms are slightly less new but fine overall. However, windows are single-glazed sliding windows that often do not shut completely or keep out noise. There is a Christian group that comes every Sunday and uses amplification for singing very loudly in the main conference room from 7am until 10am, which disturbed me regularly until I asked to be moved to a different side of the hotel. If you're by the pool or the car park, you may hear some noise, particularly as Indonesian families seem to be in the pool at 6am many mornings and locals mostly use mopeds and motorbikes for transport. Pool - the pool is small but very pleasant and mostly out of the sun from about 4pm, perfect for cooling off. Spa / Massage - the on-site massage is very good and also priced attractively. However, they only take cash which stopped me going sometimes as I wasn't in the habit of carrying cash. Local transport - the hotel has a car available to drive you / collect you within the local area, which is useful.
Molto buono
