Aryaduta Manado

The staff were friendly and the rooms comfortable. The restaurants were pricey, and the cleanliness wasn’t that good.

“Bien”

The staff and manager were kind and attentive, but the traffic noise from the boulevard was annoying.

“Für den Preis gut!”

The pool was great with a nice sea view, though the showers could use some upkeep; it had the right depth for all ages, the water was warm and the quality was “Indonesian” but not awful. The staff were friendly and helpful. The Indonesian breakfast buffet was only partially appealing to us, and it was often not restocked on request—some items were gone by 8:00 am and never refilled. For the price, that’s understandable. The room was fine; the air‑conditioner worked and wasn’t loud. The bathroom with a bathtub was spacious, and the hot water worked if you showered first, otherwise it was just warm enough. The beds and pillows were very comfortable. We could still sleep despite a bit of street noise. A small fridge in the closet worked well. The treadmills in the fitness room were only suitable for walking; if you try to jog they slow down and you lose balance—dangerous junk! It’s better to jog in the U‑shaped, concrete “park” a bit north of the sea. The weights were usable. We stayed over the weekend and saw some Indonesian locals and weddings at the hotel—interesting! The breakfast was rarely restocked, the treadmills were junk, and the safe in the closet wasn’t securely installed and could have been taken whole.

“Kies een ander hotel”

I’d like to say something positive, but I can’t. The staff smile politely but do nothing. In the end I had to haul my wrapped backpack up myself. The room was 11 m², only a single glass wall made me nervous. The air‑conditioner barely worked, making it stuffy. There were insects in the bathroom, a discolored and half‑rotted shower curtain, and a lot of outside noise as if a window was open. I fled to another hotel at 3:00 am because I couldn’t sleep, sweating with earplugs in. I slept well there but had to cancel my plans for the day because of lack of sleep. I could have handled a bit, but together that was too much. No refund or compensation was offered. I also cancelled Aryaduta in Jakarta as a precaution.

“Ik heb van de Luxe genoten”

The hotel feels a bit dated, giving it an old‑school luxury vibe. The pool is beautiful and clean. The only downside was that the terrace with service was no longer available. The only issue was the accommodation around the pool.
