Toraja Heritage Hotel, hotel in Rantepao

Toraja Heritage Hotel in Rantepao features accommodation set in the traditional Toraja-style buildings. It boasts an outdoor swimming pool, a spa centre and a fitness centre.

The staff were nice and helpful ... really excellent. The property has a very unique and picturesque look ... it's made to look like traditional Toraja houses and that made it a special experience. So we had a great view from the balcony (see photos). The breakfast had sufficient variety and was of acceptable quality. We also appreciated the fact that the hotel offered a free shuttle service into town since the hotel is a little far out (which makes for the nice scenery, of course ... no complaint there).

Rosalina Homestay, hotel in Rantepao

Located in Rantepao, Rosalina Homestay offers accommodation with seating area. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay.

I loved my spacious room with the big bed and the wonderful view over the rice fields and mountain. The staff were so helpful when I had problems with transport there and full of amazing tips to get to know the area. WiFi was excellent, as I was working a lot. I also thought the location was great, not right in the middle of busy, noisy Rantepao but walking distance from everything. I also rented a scooter from them. And all this at great value. I’d love to come back!

    You should explore the countryside and the villages. The colours and the views are amazing. People are warm and hospitable wherever you go. They are very cultural and want to keep it that way. The food is varied and can be delicious if you do your research before you get there.

    Rantepao is a perfect location to explore the Torajah area; Torajah is a mainly christian area on a mainly islamitic Island, with very typical ceremonies, often related to death and funerals. We took the bus from Makassar which takes about 10 hours to get to Rantepao, but it is an interesting journey.

    Most unique cultural experiences with memorable funerals and weekly animal market. Pleasant surprise to see so many churches in a Muslim majority country. People are very friendly and transport so affordable and interesting.

    Amazing and outlandish culture and scenery surrounding the city. Traditional housing can even be seen within the city centre. The scenery outside Rantapao is glorious, and travel with a guide highly recommended to discover the intricacies of this very different culture, provide local employment, avoid causing offence or excessive traipsing on private/family land, and because a decent map is hard to find. Take a day (or a few) in the city itself. It is safe and surprisingly sweet when you slow down and take it in. As in so much of Sulawesi, people are gentle, honest and kind.

    Perfect place to stay (better a bit out of the city center) to enjoy nature and explore the area of Toraja. The city itself not much to do except some good restaurants but a great starting point for excursions in the Toraja region.

    loved everything about this place - it is not fancy, but it is very clean and the Hostess is fantastic. we arrived late and she made dinner for us when we got there. The traditional meal she cooked the next day was also great, chicken in bamboo. There is a full bathroom outside the house with a hot water shower, western toilet and two sinks - very clean. The traditional house would not be able to accommodate a bathroom in the building itself. This is an experience to stay in real Toraja house - it is not a fancy hotel - but it is great!!

    Staying in a tongkonan is a once in a lifetime experience, Aldi and his family do their best to make sure you have a pleasant stay in their homestay, i had a good time. This special place is not far from Rantepao, but in the countryside, so the atmophere is quiet and relaxed, i even had the chance to have real indonesian/toraja dinner and breakfast with them. You can also have a glimpse of real toraja life when they show you how they feed their animals or collect the local beverage from the trees.

    The Homestay is located a little bit out of the city of Rantepao which was great in my opinion. The nature around the homestay was better than the busy traffic of the city. The owner of the place is very nice and a tourguide if you need one. He was already occupied but luckily there was another guide named Yulius who was amazing and helped with my travel plan, see some of the ceremonies and a 2 day hike. Good place to stay for your activities in and around the Tana Toraja region.

    I really enjoyed our stay at the Sanduk. Its located in a very green area so it's nice and pieceful. The owner is very welcoming and always there to help. You feel like home here. We also got a pickup from the bus stop in the early morning and a early check in and late check out. We could use the kitchen and the shower is nice and warm. And its very clean ! Definitely recommend this place if your staying in rantepao.

    Probably the best place and experience we've ever had. It's a bit more expensive than your regular accommodation but if you can spend an extra 10 euros a night come here, it's so so worth it. If you've been traveling for a while in SE Asia this will feel like a 5 star hotel. The host is so accommodating, her tour was incredible and the food is the best we've had in Indonesia. Hope some day we can come back here.

    SARAH, the owner, is amazing. If you stay anywhere else in Rantepao you have dropped the ball. I real homestay and felt like party of the FAM. Especially, making dinner with CHEF Melissa. I got the Sambal recipe I have been looking for! There is a reason the Lonely Planet highlights the Castle for Toraja! Don’t stay anywhere else!!!!

    What a lovely homestay! Everything is done with love and attention. A warm welcome by the family, fantastic food, lovely rooms with a spectacular view. And no noise, only the sounds of nature 😊( in Rantepao the mosk will wake you up early in the morning, or great chance there is a karaoke bar somewhere). Highly recommended!

    Immanuel & Melvin were super friendly and helped us with transfer from makassar to rantepao. When we arrived late at the evening, they made us food for dinner and helped us finding a torajean guide for the funeral and a hiking trip. Besides we can recommend the breakfast with the tasty pancakes, fresh fruits and juice.

    The staff were amazingly helpful … they let us check in early (4.30am!!!) and let us come back (after we’d left), to use one of their rooms to shower, after hiking … at no extra charge! SO kind! The rooms were basic, but adequate and excellent value for money! Very pretty hotel and excellent views!

    The room is clean and the space is huge. The owner Mr Raub serves a delicious breakfast, especially that glass of juice,better then outside restaurants. Honestly, it's worth it then you paid. Like other Sulawesi people I have met, Mr Raub is a very helpful and friendly owner too.

    This is a perfect place to stay for exploring the Toraja area and the hotel was obviously designed to compliment the surroundings. The staff are pleasant and try to be helpful. The dining menu is limited but the food is better than you expect it to be.
