The Loft Komodo

“Slept very badly”

The staff were friendly and helpful, and the hotel sits right on the sea with a small pool and comfy sunbeds to unwind. The room, however, was terribly noisy—road traffic, motorbikes, and loud music played late into the night. A glass panel above the door offered no curtain, letting in too much light at night and early in the morning, so even with earplugs and an eye mask sleep was hard. The price was decent, but the noise and light were the biggest downsides.

“Friendly and homely with a.great view”

Mandela greeted me warmly, making the stay feel like home, and I didn’t feel pressured to dine at The Smoke House, though the food was excellent (I got a 10% discount). The sea view from the room was stunning, with a touch of local culture just below, and the balcony loungers looked great even though I didn’t use them much. The marina was a 10‑minute walk, only slightly away from the busier part. The bed was very comfortable and the walk‑in shower was spacious. The room lacked shelves in the bedroom and bathroom, so there was nowhere to store toiletries; the basin’s angles made balancing items impossible, and the toilet had to be used as a makeshift shelf. I found the room had no hairdryer, but the staff found one upstairs for me, though it should have been in the room if listed. Restaurant noise was mostly quiet, but I could hear chairs moving at night and early morning; ear plugs were provided and I expected some noise given the room’s location. The steps down to the rooms were very steep (about knee height). Overall, it was a lovely stay and I’d return.

The location was fairly convenient, the price was good, and the staff helped with luggage. Hot water was available in the shower. As previously mentioned, there was noise from the restaurant above and the stairs were extremely steep. The curtains were transparent, so there was no darkness. The pool was actually part of the diving club, not the hotel. The bed was very uncomfortable.

The hotel is on the main street. External noise is noticeable.

“💸 Une nuit pas chère… mais très chère payée en heures de sommeil ! 😴❌”

The only real plus was the central location, close to the port and main sights, handy for a layover in Labuan Bajo. Unfortunately, it was the worst place we stayed in Indonesia. The property consists of just three rooms on the same floor as the restaurant kitchens. We endured doors slamming, footfalls, clacking, and conversations until about 1 a.m. The cherry on top was the noise from clearing tables and chairs after service, like a moving truck. The room was damp, old, and poorly sound‑proofed. Outdoor light stayed on all night, and the curtains were completely ineffective, so the room stayed lit. In our view, these three rooms should never have been offered at that spot, next to the restaurant activity. There are genuine hotels in the same area, and we regret our choice.
