Bandung's Hidden Gem: Violet Guest House OYO 91299 - Book Now!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving deep into the Violet Guest House OYO 91299 in Bandung. Forget the polished travel brochures, this is the real deal. I've spent enough time staring at Tripadvisor reviews to know what's truly important, and frankly, I'm slightly terrified and also entirely hyped to spill the tea on this "Hidden Gem." Let's face it, “Hidden Gem” is a cliché, but could this place actually be one? Only one way to find out, right? Let's go!
(I should preface this by saying, I haven't personally stayed here. This is a review based on all the available information. If I had stayed, this review would be even more gloriously chaotic!)
First Impressions: The Accessibility – Let's Talk About the Real Deal.
Okay, so the accessibility. This is where things get tricky, and honestly, a little frustrating. They say they have "facilities for disabled guests." Fine. BUT, and it’s a big but, the details are vague. No mention of specific room features, ramps, or how accessible the pool actually is. This is a major red flag! If accessibility is a priority, DO YOUR RESEARCH. Contact the hotel directly and ASK QUESTIONS. Don't assume anything. It's a shame, because the idea of a charming guest house being accessible is wonderful. But vague promises don't help anyone. I'm already getting a little annoyed with the lack of specifics.
Internet, Internet, Internet! Or, My Digital Detox Dream (or Nightmare?)
They boast “Free Wi-Fi in all rooms!” Thank the digital gods! Seriously, the thought of trying to navigate Bandung without Google Maps is terrifying. The listing also mentions Internet [LAN] and general “Internet services.” Fine. I mean, a wired connection? Who even remembers those? But hey, options are good. Let's just hope the Wi-Fi isn't the other hidden gem that is perpetually, infuriatingly hidden.
Food, Glorious Food, and the Potential for Digestive Disaster (or Delight!)
Okay, this is where things get interesting. So many options! Restaurants, a coffee shop, a snack bar, even a "Vegetarian Restaurant." And they offer "Asian cuisine in restaurant" alongside "International cuisine in restaurant." That’s some serious culinary whiplash right there! The listing also mentions "Alternative meal arrangement," so they're clearly trying to be accommodating. I'm envisioning a breakfast buffet, a chaotic ballet of tongs and scrambled eggs. Hopefully, there's decent coffee, or the whole experience is going to be a write-off. And, let’s be honest, those “bottle of water” in-room are a life saver in Indonesian heat.
The Spa Shuffle and the Temptation of Bliss (or Boredom?)
A "Spa" is listed. And a Sauna! "Massage" as an option, plus "Pool with view." Am I dreaming? The listing throws around words like "body scrub" and "Body wrap," which sounds supremely decadent. The "Fitness center" is a nice bonus, although, let's be real, how much gym time is anyone really doing on vacation? I'm torn. This sounds amazing, but also potentially a bit…meh. (That depends on how well-maintained the spa is, of course!) I need a good massage after a flight, so the sooner I can soak in a hot tub, the better!
Cleanliness and Safety: Fingers Crossed, People!
This is where it gets so important, especially these days. They claim: "Anti-viral cleaning products," "Daily disinfection in common areas," "Rooms sanitized between stays," "Hand sanitizer," "Staff trained in safety protocol," and "Sterilizing equipment." That's a good start! Plus, they've got "Physical distancing of at least 1 meter" and "Safe dining setup." I need this more than ever! "Hot water linen and laundry washing" is a big plus for me as a germaphobe. However, the real test is in the execution, right? I'd be looking for some recent reviews to see if these promises are actually being kept.
The Room Itself: What's Behind Door Number… Whatever?!
Okay, the room details are a mixed bag of potential paradise and potential disappointment. "Air conditioning" – YES! "Blackout curtains" – DOUBLE YES (sleep is precious!). "Coffee/tea maker" – Excellent. "Mini bar" – Score! "In-room safe box" – Smart. "Free bottled water" – Already mentioned, crucial. However, There is "Desk" and "Laptop workspace," what really matters is how big and comfy the desk is if you're planning to be working. The fact that the listing doesn't include a photo of the rooms is making me anxious.
Services and Conveniences: The Perks and the Potential Pains
- "Front desk [24-hour]" - Good.
- "Daily housekeeping" - YAS!
- "Elevator" - Important.
- "Laundry service" - essential!
- "Luggage storage" - Great.
- "Car park [free of charge]" - Also great.
Now, the "cash withdrawal" feature is a plus, as ATMs get so busy. "Concierge," "Currency exchange," and "Invoice provided" all sound like they are trying to please business clientele. "Babysitting service" and "Family/child friendly" are interesting. I'm picturing noisy, happy families. Or, maybe just a kid screaming at 5 a.m., that's also a possibility.
Getting Around: Into Bandung and Beyond!
"Airport transfer," "Taxi service," and "Valet parking," are helpful amenities. But, if you are driving yourself then" Car park [on-site]", "Bicycle parking" and "Car power charging station" are handy.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax: The Fun Stuff
Besides the spa (which we've covered!), the list includes "Pool with view" and "Swimming pool [outdoor]." That sounds lovely, but a pool's vibe can make or break a holiday. The list contains no further options, so that's rather unfortunate.
The Undercooked: Things that Should be Clarified
- Is there any form of public transport nearby?
- How far away from the main attractions is it?
- Is there parking available at the hotel?
The Verdict (So Far)
Honestly, I'm intrigued. Violet Guest House OYO 91299 sounds like a mixed bag. Some things sound promising, others make me nervous (mostly the accessibility aspect). It's a gamble, but a potentially charming one.

Final Thoughts (and a Little Bit of Panic)
Okay, I’m putting my money where my mouth is. If the reviews are good post-pandemic, and if the accessibility is genuinely good (I’m going to double-check), then I might just take this gamble. But, before I book, I'm hunting for those real reviews. And I'm going to be bugging the hotel about the accessibility situation like it's my job. This could be amazing, or it could be a beautiful disaster. Stay tuned… I'll keep you updated if I actually go! Wish me luck!
Indulge in Andalusian Charm: Bandung's BEST Lodge & Brunch!
Alright, buckle up buttercups! We're diving headfirst into my disastrous (and hopefully hilarious) adventure at OYO 91299 Violet Guest House in Bandung, Indonesia. Consider this less an itinerary and more… a therapy session.
Day 1: Arrival and the Quest for Breakfast (or, “Why Didn't I Pack More Snacks?”)
Morning (6:00 AM - 9:00 AM): Ugh. The flight. Don't even get me started. Let's just say the in-flight entertainment "suggested" I watch a documentary about cheese production. I opted for sleep. Landed in Bandung, buzzing with a mix of jet lag and the faint scent of… I don't even know. Something vaguely floral. Probably not the Violet Guest House. My first impression of the airport? Hot. Sweltering. My meticulously planned travel outfits? Useless.
Morning (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM): Uber to Violet Guest House. The driver, bless his heart, clearly thought I was a local Indonesian. Spoke to me exclusively in Bahasa. I nodded and smiled, hoping for the best. Arrived at the Guest House. "Violet Guest House", huh? More like "Faded Lilac Guest House". The pictures online… let's just say they were taken with a VERY forgiving lens. Check-in was a breeze though - the woman at the front desk was lovely.
Quirky Observation: The lobby smelled like mothballs and… potpourri? The kind your grandma keeps in the guest bathroom. A questionable combination.
Emotional Reaction: Mild anxiety. Was this… it? Am I stuck here?
Afternoon (12:00 PM - 2:00 PM): The most pressing matter? Food. The lack of a proper breakfast on the plane had left a gnawing emptiness. Armed with Google Maps and a burning desire for nasi goreng, I ventured out. Found a place. It was… okay. I wasn't dying of hunger, but I wasn't exactly having a culinary epiphany either.
Messier Structure: Wandered aimlessly, feeling utterly incompetent due to the language barrier. Ended up circling the same block three times. Had a minor internal breakdown. Found a street vendor selling something resembling spring rolls. Risked it. Surprisingly good!
Afternoon (2:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Settled into my room. The air conditioning fought valiantly against the relentless heat. A minor triumph. Bed was… fine. Shower? Ran lukewarm. But hey, it's an adventure, right? Attempted a nap. Failed. Mosquitoes. Lots of them.
Opinionated Language: This place is no luxury, but it's got character! And by "character" I mean "questionable plumbing" and "an army of tiny bloodsuckers."
Evening (5:00 PM - 8:00 PM): Decided I needed a "cultural experience". Found a local market. Ate a questionable but delicious fruit that looked like a shrivelled up dragon's egg. The smells! The sounds! The sheer chaos! It was… a lot. Took way too many photos. Bought a ridiculously large hat. Regretting my life choices, but trying to make the most of it.
Evening (8:00 PM - 10:00 PM): Back at the Guest House. Feeling slightly overwhelmed. Ordered room service. The menu was only in Bahasa. I pointed randomly. Food arrived. It was… interesting. Not terrible, not amazing. I suspect I ordered chicken feet.
Day 2: Tangkuban Perahu Volcano (or, "When the Adventure Turned 'Volcan-o-y'")
Morning (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM): Woke up. Still alive. The mosquito situation had improved. Sort of. Decided I needed a REAL adventure. Tangkuban Perahu Volcano was on the list. Booked a tour through the Guest House since I doubted my ability to navigate Indonesian public transport.
Morning (9:00 AM - 12:00 PM): The drive to the volcano was… long. Our driver seemed to think he was in a Formula 1 race. White-knuckled the whole way. Arrived at Tangkuban Perahu. Stunning views! Breath-taking. Literally. The sulfurous air was intense.
Stronger Emotional Reaction: Jaw-dropping beautiful! Completely worth the terrifying car ride.
Afternoon (12:00 PM - 2:00 PM): Wandered around the crater. The sheer scale of it was amazing. The vendors hawking everything from hats to… live chickens were relentless (but I learned to counter a little bit)
Doubling Down: The air. THE AIR! It smelled like rotten eggs and a thousand burning wishes. My eyes watered. My throat tickled. I loved it. It was the purest, most raw, and smelly beauty I had ever experienced. Spent WAY too much time taking photos. Had a minor existential crisis, contemplating the sheer power of nature.
Afternoon (2:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Hike a little way down the crater. Got a bit dizzy. Probably the altitude. Or the fumes. Found a spot to sit and just… breathe. (Or, you know, try to breathe through the sulfur). It was peaceful. Until a monkey tried to steal my water bottle.
Stream-of-consciousness: Monkey. Water bottle. Me screaming. Driver laughing. Monkey retreating. Disaster averted. But now… I'm paranoid.
Evening (5:00 PM - 7:00 PM): Back in Bandung. Exhausted but exhilarated. Found a cute little cafe. Had a delicious Indonesian coffee, and felt… somewhat human again.
Evening (7:00 PM - 9:00 PM): Back to the Guest House. Ordered more room service. This time I tried to pronounce things correctly in Indonesian. This time I got… something I could actually identify: chicken and rice . A win!
Day 3: Shopping and Departure (or, "Goodbye, Bandung! You Crazy Place.")
Morning (8:00 AM - 10:00 AM): Had to check out. The Guest House lady was very sweet. I tipped her generously.
Morning (10:00 AM - 1:00 PM): Decided to embrace the chaos and hit the shopping stalls. Found a market. Bought a bunch of random things I'll probably never use. Bargaining. It was another fun but exhausting experience.
Afternoon (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM): Lunch. Tried something new. It was… spicy. My mouth is still on fire.
Afternoon (3:00 PM - 5:00 PM): Uber to the airport. Goodbyes to Bandung. Emotional Reaction: Overall. I am left with a feeling of melancholy, and the desire to return.
Evening (5:00 PM - onwards): The flight home. Cheese documentaries again. Maybe I'll watch one this time. Goodbye Bandung. You were messy, you were unpredictable, you were beautiful. I'll be back. Eventually. After a very long nap.
So there you have it. The raw, unedited truth about my Violet Guest House adventure. Would I recommend it? Maybe. Would I go back? Probably. And I might actually try to learn some more Bahasa next time. Wish me luck!
