Isuy Cape

2012-02-09T14:32:00.000+07:00

This little settlement around Lake Jempang in the lake-studded East Kalimantan hinterland, has a traditional Dayak long-house which has been turned into lodges for visitors. The grave of a Benuaq Dayak chief lies aside the hamlet's only road. Visitors are usually given a traditional Benuaq Dayak welcome. The trip to Tanjung Isuy over the Mahakam river is a long but interesting one past floating villages and forest scenery. If you are lucky, you can watch a belian,or witch doctor, dressed in his skirt of leaves, cures his patients at night by performing the rites prescribed by ancestors to the frenzied accompaniment of gongs and drums. Many Benuaq Dayaks still prefer the old cures to the modern ones at government public health centers which are nearby

Dayak Pampang Culture Village

2012-02-09T14:23:00.000+07:00

Pampang, a village inhabited by Kenyah Dayaks, an indigenous people of Indonesian Borneo, was recently declared the first "culture village" in the province of East Kalimantan. This study traces the development of "Pampang Culture Village" and examines the incipient effects of tourism on the lives and livelihoods of local people. Even as the village's cultivation as a tourist destination has begun to garner benefits for residents, their role in the enterprise remains ambiguous. Left unresolved, this confusion could contribute to fissures within the community.
Pampang, which in the Indonesian language means "expansive," is populated mostly by people known as Kenyah Dayaks, among the largest Dayak groups in Kalimantan. Like some other Dayaks, many Kenyah refer to themselves as "people of tradition" (masyarakat adat). However Dayak traditions, like Dayak languages, vary widely across the island. Kenyah are further divided in subgroups that speak distinct dialects and whose customs vary. These subgroups are sometimes called uma or lepo. Kenyah who live in Pampang today include representatives of several different lepo. Thus, unlike the situation in more remote Kenyah villages where nearly everyone may speak the same dialect, two neighbors living in Pampang may speak quite differently from one another. The Kenyah practice a hereditary ranking system that includes aristocrats (paren) who traditionally comprised the villages' political leadership, various types of commoners (panyin), and, formerly, slaves (ula). At the same time, traditional patterns of leadership are gradually changing as villages become increasingly incorporated in state administrative structures, and the role of church leaders in many communities is increasing in importance (Conley 1976:187-201). The relative affluence of some families who participate in new wage-earning opportunities has also affected the balance of power. Thus it is not surprising that questions of cultural identity and the effects on tourism many dimensions of local community life loom large in Pampang.

The Gran Senyiur

2012-01-22T14:09:00.000+07:00

I lived at the Gran Senyiur for three weeks, and even if I would not rate it 5 stars, it certainly deserves praise. The President of Indonesia stays there when he comes to Balikpapan, that must be for a reason.

The room I had (339) was very spacious, clean, wooden floor, big bathroom with both tub & shower. Decoration, like in most of the hotel, remains sober and elegant with a hint of Borneo exotism.

Great food, varied choice on the menus, extensive breakfast buffet with home-made pastries and bread that is probably as good as you can get in a Parisian boulangerie! The bar is very elegant, staff attentive; probably one of my favorite places in Balikpapan to have a conversation around a drink or light bites.

On the downside Internet was very unreliable throughout my stay, it was slow at best. Staff speaks extremely limited English (most don't speak at all). The safe in my room was not working. Air conditioning was noisy and made the room either glacial when turned on or tropical when turned off. Fitness room was nice but no AC or ventilation.

I haven't stayed at other hotels in Balikpapan; the Novotel next door looks very modern but it is a typical international chain hotel; cold and soulless.

New Hotel with lots to learn

2012-01-22T14:04:00.000+07:00

The Grand Jatra is a new hotel which is still in the process of being completed.

Room was clean and was very large, probably too large for the amount of furniture in it, if that is possible!!! TV was fixed to the farthest wall away from the bed which made it seem very small even if it was a big screen. Bathroom is one of those with a glass wall, never really see the need for these - even if there is a blind to close.

Breakfast was OK, nothing exceptional to write about, just in the adequate bracket. Had dinner in the hotel, first choice wasn't available, second choice was interesting - was supposed to be Tandoori Chicken - had a red sauce over it, the rest was obviously the chef using his artistic license.

The staff do have a lot to learn. I received a 7am call to tell me my limo to the airport at 10:30am was confirmed - ummm, thanks for the early morning wake up call.

Internet was a pain. You get free access, but the access they give you only lasts 2 hours at a time - ended up asking them for a number of the access passes so I didn;t have to continually go down to the reception to get a new one!

Surprisingly not bad for Balikpapan

2012-01-22T14:00:00.000+07:00

I’ve stayed at several of the hotels in Balikpapan but this is my first at the Novotel. I was pleasantly surprised; it is pretty good for this town.

The lobby is okay, quite standard for this type of hotel. The hotel was supposedly fully booked, but it didn’t feel overly crowded or busy. Service is fine.

The glass elevators have a panoramic view out over the city to the ocean, very nice. The lifts themselves however are a little (i.e. very) slow, maybe it's so that guests can enjoy the view. The rooms are spacious, clean and modern and is much better decorated than the other hotels in the area. Bathrooms are not too bad either. Most business class hotels in Balikpapan tend to have run down bathrooms with chipped or broken tiles and water stains everywhere but it was okay here.

Bed is hard for my liking and the pillows are terrible. Internet is free but quite slow.
Food in the restaurant is very average. I don’t think I’ve ever had a really good meal in any of the business hotels in Indonesia at all. Steak I had was greasy and under done. I had Asian food the next night and it was very greasy too.
There is a spa on site, very reasonably priced.

Gym is surprisingly really good. Gyms in this class of hotel are generally really bad in Indonesia, with very out-dated rickety equipment and they are usually tucked away in the inner bowels of the hotel somewhere. The Novotel gym had decent equipment, fairly new, in a nice room with an ocean view. Only complaint was that the AC was set too warm.
Pool is on the same floor and is quite large. It was quite pleasant sitting outside by the pool sipping drinks and watching the sunset over the ocean.
Despite my mixed review, it is probably one of the better hotels in this area. I will stay here again.
