Black Lava Hostel and Lodge

Had a great stay here when doing the Mt Batur trail run, v close to the start of the race. Booked a quad room which turned out to be a canvas tent. Mattress was comfy. Food good with awesome view and nice hot spring pools to chill in before/after the race. Would stay again for sure

Service was good (they arrange everything taxi, trekking ... at reasonable price, they are friendly and helpful, value for money was also good for the room (only small point more pressure on shower would be welcome). Location and view was really nice. There is swimming pool with hot water and view on the mountain it's perfect. We fid not try restaurant but we find nice place near by (800 m)

Don’t bring big car in here because the street small and rocky road. Very cold and Hot pool makes it better. Simple breakfast and taste was ok. Bring your bottles, they have water dispensers and u can refill anytime. I stay at family camp and was good. Clean toilets. Helpful staff. Make sure you depart in morning/afternoon to go here because the street very dark

Stayed here only for only one night and wish I had time to stay longer. Did the Mt. Batur hike - our guide was fantastic - very knowledgeable about the geology and area, paced the hike well and he took the best photos! The grounds of Black Lava were gorgeous with many nice details and well-tended plants and flowers. The best part is the little natural hot spring pool over-looking the lake with a view of Mt Agung. The owner John, was great and the staff especially Yoga, were all super helpful. I went with my mother who was recovering from a broken leg and had some mobility issues - they were all very helpful and accommodating. Hope to stay here again!
