We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Dialoog Banyuwangi. The hotel is beautiful, the food is outstanding, and above all, the staff are simply fantastic. Everyone is incredibly friendly, attentive and genuinely willing to help. You immediately feel welcome here. A special compliment to the reception team. You can literally ask them anything, and they are always ready to help and find a solution. The fact that the reception is available 24/7 is a huge plus and gives you a real sense of comfort and security. And the food is amazing. The quality, flavours and presentation were excellent, and we thoroughly enjoyed every meal we had at the hotel. Definitely something worth mentioning and one of the highlights of our stay. There is, however, one point that is important for travellers like us to mention. We personally place a very high value on peace, privacy and being able to enjoy our surroundings without constantly being photographed or filmed. During our time in Banyuwangi, we noticed that many local people, as well as visitors from neighbouring countries, are extremely focused on social media. Everywhere we went, people seemed to be taking photos and videos, often with semi-professional cameras, tripods and other equipment. We experienced the same thing during dinner at the hotel. Some guests were busy creating content throughout the meal, including going live on social media with their phones mounted on tripods next to the table. Of course, everyone is free to enjoy social media however they wish, but for us personally, this takes away from the peaceful and private atmosphere we value when having dinner or relaxing. We want to stress that this is not really a criticism of Hotel Dialoog itself. The hotel and its staff are wonderful. It is more something that travellers who, like us, highly value privacy and tranquillity should be aware of when visiting Banyuwangi. Despite this, we look back on our stay with great pleasure. The wonderful staff, excellent service, fantastic food and beautiful property make Hotel Dialoog a place we would happily recommend
