Bogor's BEST Kept Secret: House of M RedDoorz - Unbelievable Deal!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because I'm about to spill the tea on Bogor's BEST Kept Secret: House of M RedDoorz – Unbelievable Deal! Forget those cookie-cutter hotels, we're going deep, people. This isn't just a review; it's a love letter… with a few grumbles sprinkled in for authenticity. Let's dive in, shall we?
First Impressions (and a Tiny Existential Crisis):
Okay, so landing in Bogor… traffic is a beast. Seriously, it’s like a giant, metal, honking centipede. But as soon as I pulled up to House of M, a wave of… well, relief washed over me. It's tucked away, which is a major plus in a busy city. Let’s be honest, I’m not looking for Times Square, I'm aiming for chill. And chill, it largely delivered.
Accessibility (and My Almost-Wobbly Knees):
This is where House of M shines, especially compared to some of the older, creakier places in Bogor. They do have an elevator (hallelujah!), which is critical because I’m not getting any younger and stairs are my personal nemesis. They've also got facilities for disabled guests, so bonus points there for inclusivity. The downside? I'm not sure if there are ramps to get to the dining area I will note.
The Room – My Temporary Fortress (and That Damn Clock):
Alright, the room. It was clean. REALLY clean. And that’s a HUGE deal in my book. Honestly, I’ve seen hotel rooms that look like they haven’t been cleaned since the Jurassic period. This one, chef's kiss. The Wi-Fi? Free, and it actually worked. Essential. There’s free Wi-Fi in all the rooms, so no more tethering to crappy mobile hotspots (thank god). I had all the essentials in the room like a coffee/tea maker, complimentary tea, bottled water, in-room safe. It's all the comfort for spending a night or two as a solo traveler.
The bed was comfortable as well, But… that damn alarm clock nearly gave me a heart attack. I swear, it went off at 3 AM for absolutely no reason! I scrambled to turn the blasted thing off, convinced the apocalypse was upon us. That’s my only real gripe about the room.
Cleanliness & Safety (Because, Let's Face It, We're Living in a Science Fiction Movie):
This is where House of M genuinely shines. First, huge kudos for the anti-viral cleaning products. I'm not a germaphobe, but hey, I’m not trying to catch anything either! They’ve got hand sanitizer everywhere, and staff are actually trained in safety protocols. They sanitize the rooms diligently between stays, which is a huge weight off my mind, plus, there's a Doctor/nurse on call. Makes me feel safe and secure, despite all the horror movies I have consumed.
I had no problems with the door locks, security cameras, and all of the other security features to make sure I feel safe and secure in this establishment.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking – Where Did I Eat?!
Alright, foodie alert! The hotel has a restaurant, and the food was… good. Not Michelin-star amazing, but definitely solid. They offer a buffet breakfast, which, let's be real, is a hotel staple. It wasn't the best buffet I've ever had, but it had the essentials: eggs, toast, fruit, and coffee (thank god for coffee!). If you're after a more intimate affair, they have both Breakfast in room and Breakfast takeaway service, which is nice for some privacy.
They also offer a la carte options in the restaurant, and sometimes, I just wanted to eat, like, a decent burger. The burgers were actually pretty good.
Services and Conveniences – A Little Bit of Everything:
You’d expect a standard list of services, like daily housekeeping, laundry, and ironing. They have it all. But what surprised me? The convenience store. Yes, it’s the little things, like being able to grab a midnight snack and a bottle of water. The concierge was also helpful, even with my weird questions. Plus, they offer things like Contactless check-in/out which makes everything faster. I hate filling out forms after a long day.
Things to Do (or Not Do – My Specialty):
Alright, so I'm not a spa-and-sauna kind of gal. But House of M has them! They've got a pool with a view, a gym, a sauna, and even a spa! The pool, from what I saw, looked lovely. I, however, spent my time, nestled in my room, avoiding humans, drinking coffee, and writing. It was pure bliss!
The Unbelievable Deal – Okay, Spill the Beans!
Look, I’m not going to give you the exact price, but let’s just say the value for money is insane. You get a lot for what you pay. Seriously, it’s a steal. Which is why I call it Bogor’s BEST Kept Secret!
The Quirks, The Quirks! (Because Nothing Is Ever Perfect):
- The Lighting: A little dim in the room. I like bright, so I had to open all the curtains all day.
- The Happy Hour: Honestly, I missed it. Because, writing. (I know, I know…first world problems).
- The Noise: I could hear the occasional bit of noise from the hallways. Not unbearable, but a little… noticeable. I am a light sleeper, it's a personal problem.
The Bottom Line – Should You Stay?
YES! Absolutely. Despite a few tiny hiccups, the positives far outweigh the negatives. House of M RedDoorz offers a clean, safe, and comfortable stay at an unbelievable price. It’s a great base for exploring Bogor, or just relaxing and escaping the craziness of life (which is what I did). You should stay, you should.

Okay, buckle up buttercups, because this isn't your meticulously planned, Instagram-perfect vacation. This is my attempt at taming the beast that is Bogor and the House of M Mitra RedDoorz. Brace yourselves for the glorious mess that is…my itinerary.
Day 1: Jakarta Airport Debacle & Bogor's Initial Charm (and Mild Panic)
- 06:00 AM (ish): Wake up in my own bed, filled with the usual pre-travel anxiety. Did I pack enough socks? Did I accidentally leave the stove on? Breathe, breathe… Jakarta here I come!
- 07:00 AM: Uber to Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. The driver, bless his heart, seems to think he's auditioning for a Formula 1 driver. We arrive (relatively) unscathed.
- 08:00 AM - 10:00 AM: The Airport. Oh, the airport. The air is thick with the scent of instant noodles and desperation. I hate airports. Immigration? Relatively painless. Baggage claim? A chaotic free-for-all. Find my bag! Finally.
- 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM: Train to Bogor. The train is packed. I manage to snag a seat, squished between a woman with a mountain of groceries and a guy who's very enthusiastically talking on the phone about his love life. It's good. Jakarta is a city of millions and everyone has a story and you're kind of forced to witness it.
- 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Taxi to House of M Mitra RedDoorz. I'm pretty sure our driver is trying to set a new land speed record for taxis. But hey, we made it! Check-in is easy. The room? Basic, but clean. The air conditioning works, which is a godsend.
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch at a warung (small local eatery) nearby. I accidentally order nasi goreng (fried rice) with WAY too much chili. My tongue is on fire. I am sweating like a pig. Was it worth it? Absolutely!
- 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Exploring Bogor Botanical Gardens (Kebun Raya Bogor). Wow. Just…wow. This place is HUGE. I get completely lost. I get bitten by something, probably a mosquito the size of my thumb. I see a group of teenagers having a photoshoot, and a bunch of old folks playing a game of chess on the pavement. It’s all so very… Indonesian. I love it. I try to find the orchid garden, but end up staring at a particularly majestic tree for a good 20 minutes.
- 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Getting Back (and realizing, oh dear, that Mosquito bite is REALLY itchy). Back to the Hotel- the room is actually quite comfortable. Clean, I like that.
- 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM: Dinner: Decided to check out a place called "Sunda Rasa" to sample some authentic Sundanese Cuisine. Honestly, the food was… incredible. I've never experienced such variety in a single meal before. So much color, spice, and flavor. I ordered some fish, and the textures were just incredible.
- 7:00 PM - onwards: Collapse in bed. Netflix. Feeling pleasantly exhausted. And a little bit homesick, but mostly in love with this crazy beautiful place.
Day 2: Bogor's Delicious Secrets & The Dreaded Traffic
- 08:00 AM: Wake up. Still itchy. The joys of tropical travel!
- 09:00 AM: Breakfast at the hotel. Basic, but the fresh fruit is surprisingly good.
- 10:00 AM - 1:00 PM: A bit more Botanic gardens! This place is so big! I saw some monkeys, which was cool, and I think I found the Orchid Garden. Yay!
- 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM: Lunch in a small road-side stall. The food is amazing, the traffic is bad (as always).
- 2:00 PM - 5:00 PM: A Journey to Istana Bogor (Presidential Palace). I tried to go, but the traffic was so bad I gave up. Apparently, I can't see it!
- 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Back to the room. Think about the traffic, the traffic, the traffic.
- 6:00 PM - onwards: Dinner - I order room service. I get delicious food. And a good night's sleep.
Day 3: Bogor's Last Stand & The Departure (and the lingering itch)
- 08:00 AM: Wake. Itch. The itch is winning.
- 09:00 AM: Breakfast. Still good, but the realization that I will be leaving soon is hitting hard.
- 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM: One last stroll through the Gardens (I have to make the most of this beautiful place, and also make sure I find that orchid garden this time. I did!
- 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM: Lunch. This time, I opt for something with significantly less chili. Still delicious, though.
- 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM: Pack. Say goodbye to the room. Check out.
- 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM: Taxi to the train station. Traffic. Always traffic.
- 5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Train to Airport.
- 6:00 PM onwards: The airport- the flight!
Some thoughts on my trip…
- The House of M Mitra RedDoorz: Fine. Very fine. Clean, comfortable, and air-conditioned. Not fancy, but gets the job done.
- The Botanical Gardens: Utterly amazing. Get lost. Embrace the chaos. Bring bug spray.
- The Food: Delicious! Be adventurous. Embrace the spice.
- The Traffic: A special kind of hell. Learn to accept it.
- Bogor: I fell in love with this place. The beauty, the people, and the delicious food, and the mess. It's a city that needs to be experienced, mess and all.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go scratch. And find some calamine lotion.
