Les Rizieres Lombok - Tetebatu

This is a perfect homestay in the heart of Tetebatu rice country. The rooms are beautiful and the environment is delightful. The hosts were very helpful - big shout out to NURI who organised things for us. Also, the home cooked food was exceptional, certainly the best meal we had on Lombok. We look forward to returning.

Nestled at the foot of Mount Rinjani, in a beautiful setting of rice fields (rizières in French), this boutique hotel was a great respite after a long day travelling to Lombok. We arrived late, but the two French owners were there to greet us and show us to our mezzanine room. The room was well accommodated with all necessities and a great bed. As we come during Ramadan time, call to prayer can definitely be heard late night and early morning. We organised a craft tour through the hotel, and that was an interesting mix of fresh market, weaving, Pottery, and bamboo weaving. The breakfast is best taken on the first floor above the restaurant area, with a wonderful view of the rice fields and Mount Rinjani. You can also organize a trek to climb the Mount, but it is no easy trek, you are warned!

Very welcoming owners and staff despite our late arriving flight, clean and comfortable room and breakfast view right over the rice fields. We organised handicraft tour and onward transport via the hotel. Would have been a great place to hang out more than one night and see more of the local area.

Our stay at Les Riziéres exceeded all our expectations. We were first met with a welcome drink and really friendly staff. Thomas (the owner) used a lot of time to make our stay as optimal as possible. He even helped us with arranging our next stop. Tips: Do the rice fields guide tour with Mussi/Mosi (Thomas arranges this). Take your breakfasts up to the second floor of the restaurant and enjoy the view. Try their restaurant for dinner, the chef is great. We loved our stay here!

First to say that the staff in the hotel is very friendly and helpful, service is really good 👍 But... We had the family superior room on the ground floor, the room was full of moisture with very bad smell all the time. Room is poorly made with very tiny walls made of knauf boards (which are full of moisture). I lost my balance and put my hand on the wall to avoid falling down which made a hole in the wall. They charged us for that (and I am OK with paying damage done), but there would be no damage if the walls were properly made and not full of moisture. I just leaned on the wall to prevent falling down and that made a hole in the wall. Everything else was fine, especially the staff working there, but this made our stay very unpleasant.
