Sierra Villa Malang

Just outside Malang’s center — about 4 km from downtown and roughly 8 km (5 mi) from Abdul Rachman Saleh Airport. Close to Kampung Biru Arema, Kampung Warna-Warni and Alun-Alun Tugu Malang. A family-friendly, pet-friendly villa that’s easy to reach by car.

A small, individually decorated villa with two air-conditioned rooms that feel like a private hideaway. Rooms feature kitchenettes (fridge, stovetop and some with ovens), memory-foam beds with down comforters, private balconies or patios, desks and separate sitting areas, plus 32-inch LCD TVs. Limited housekeeping keeps the stay relaxed and low-key.

Lounge by an outdoor pool and sip at the poolside bar, or stroll the terrace and garden. Rent bicycles, fire up the BBQ or picnic in the grounds. Family-friendly extras include playrooms and supervised childcare/activities; there’s also a massage room and on-site doctor. Complimentary wired and wireless internet and free self-parking keep things easy; an airport shuttle is available on request (surcharge).

Express check-in and check-out, complimentary newspapers in the lobby and reliable wired and wireless internet make short work of admin. Concierge and tour desk services available for bookings and transfers.

An on-site restaurant serves local Indonesian flavors and the poolside bar keeps drinks flowing. Cooked-to-order breakfasts are available for a fee, room service runs during limited hours, and a shared kitchen lets guests cook their own meals.
