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!

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).

Mama Tia Family Homestay, hotel in Rantepao

Set in Rantepao, Mama Tia Family Homestay has a garden and shared lounge. Featuring a shared kitchen, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace.

Just brilliant. Clean big room, nice terrace with a nice view to talk to other travellers and share stories, delicious food served by the Homestay. Highly recommend doing a tour from the Homestay too, Yansen was our guide and he was amazing. We felt we got to experience a more authentic time with him, and felt welcomed into the funeral ceremonies. He explained everything so well and always had a huge smile on his face! He English was great and he had in-depth knowledge of the traditions. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay, and it is an experience we will talk about the rest of our lives. Thank you so much!!

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.

Rosa and Enos are very friendly and helpful hosts. Clean room and nice (shared) terras. Walking distance to shops/ restaurants. We booked a tour with Amos ( through Enos), a very knowledgeable, friendly guide. I would really recommend him. Enos was the driver for the tour and he is a very good chauffeur. We also rented scooters through Enos for 100.000 IDR per scooter per day, and they were very well maintained. It is nice to drive through the area (but you might to get used to the traffic😉). Nearby the homestay (on walking distance) there is a very nice place to have something to eat or drink; Kanaa. The food and coffee is great there and the staff very friendly.

    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!!

    The place has everything you need - a great and affordable setup for domestic and international travellers with hot water, really delicious and filling breakfast options for an extra 25.000 and 24 hour free tea, coffee and water refill. The owners, Rosalina and Enos are lovely - they helped us with any questions we had and stored our luggage when we went trekking. Because it's a homestay it's a much nicer experience than a generic hotel. The place has a simple charm to it with views of rice field and is very comfortable.

    Sanduk offers 2 nice and clean double rooms in the ground floor and two super rooms in the 1st floor; one of them king-size. Ibra, the owner, is extremely kind and helpful. He serves a nice breakfast in a terrace overlooking a quiet neigborhood. The homestay is located at a five minutes walk to Ke Te Kesu. No problem if the center of Rantepao is at some distance, Ibra is always ready to take or pick you up to/from the downtown for free. Definitely one of the best accomodation options in Rantepao

    Very nice staff! The first day I arrived, they already booked me a guide, so I could do a tour the next day. I took the evening bus, but I was aloud to stay at the hotel all day, and they even dropped me at the bus station! The room itself was very clean, the room is cleaned every day. Breakfast was good. Location very good, less than five minutes from the Main Street of Rantepao by tuktuk. The building itself is very high, which gives an amazing view of the city.

    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.

    The homestay is located in the center of Rantepao. The host family is very nice and welcoming. The rooms are simple, but big and very clean. It's great value for money and the family will make your stay very pleasant. Daude is an experienced and highly recommended guide. We did a one day "cultural-tour" with him and it was a great experience. We saw and learned a lot about the Torajan culture.

    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!!!!

    We had a great stay in the traditional house. Mama Valen and her family are very welcoming and friendly and helped us find a good guide and motorbike/scooter for our stay in Tana Toraja. It’s a 10-15 minute bike ride from Rantepao center which made it very quiet and peaceful. The food was excellent!

    The accommodation was well located, near Rantepao, and had all the amenities a person might need on a trip like this. The room has everything you need, the bathroom likewise, and the people are super friendly and eager to offer you all their belongings and things as if you were at home.

    Amazing cultural experience from all above. You will live in contact with a local humble family but in a traditional private house as tongkonan is. Aldi helped me booking buses and giving directions for rantepao area. After 6 days of staying, sadly have to say good bye to them.

    The hotel is built in a typical regional style and is surrounded by rice fields with views of hills and mountains.  A well-kept garden, pool and restaurant combine beautifully with the main building.  The rooms are very clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful.
