WHERE TO SLEEP ON FLORES?
To fall to the point: most hotels on Flores are not of the international standard and a lot of them are not on hotel bookingsites, however it is becoming better
these days. Outside Labuan Bajo many hotels are basic and simple but nowadays most of them have hot water which is a basic need in mountain villages where mornings, thus the water can be very
cold - 15 years ago we still had to struggle with a bucket of hot water heated for guests by the hotelstaff.
In the mountains like Ruteng, Bajawa and Moni accomodation with aircon is rare since it is cool at night.
You also won't find many hotels with a swimmingpool apart from Labuan Bajo and a few in/around Maumere.
There are few familyrooms on Flores which can accomodate more than 3 people so with a family of 4 or 5 you likely need to book 2 rooms.
For the months June, July, August and September, during Christmas/New Year and the week before and after Idul Fitri or if you
just don't want to take the risk it is wise to book in ahead. Make sure your booking is flexible. Rates as published below are an indication and seldom the reality.
In many places on Flores prices sometimes increase in the tourist
season. The semana santa in Larantuka, the week before Easter you need to book at least 6 months in advance and expect to pay a lot more than published rates.
You can try to book via one of these sites.
Traveloka (English) and Nusatrip (English) (both also for flights)
are Indonesian based and have sometimes more/other options for booking hotels on Flores than other sites.
However to my opinion and experience Booking.com is the most customer friendly accomodation provider.
If you cannot book via bookingsites or the hotel or room of your choice is full try to make a reservation via email, however sometimes communication via email is
slow (you have to wait for a few days or you don’t get an answer at all). Better is to communicate via a mobile number
(if available) with sms or even better via Whats App, Line or Messenger so communication will be quicker and more
interactive.
Some of the hotels and guesthouses have a page on Facebook or Instagram, so you also can contact them via these social media.
Finally, it is not easy to recommend a hotel as standards and facility wishes for
everyone are different. Personally I like a hotel that is not too big and where I can sit in front of the room in a nice garden. WiFi, aircon (except in
mountain areas) and clean is a must also. I pay an average of Rp 400.000 for a room on Flores.
If you need advise you can contact me but please be clear what you whish and expect, facilities, budget etc.
In the photo sector you will find a few pics of hotels. To avoid misunderstandings: there is no benefit in relation to these photo’s. It is just to give you an idea what kind of accomodation is available on Flores. Also this list is far from complete.
I selected around 220 hotels for you here below in alphabetical order of towns and villages. The list is not complete. Although many of them checked by myself if
possible the information is not always complete or up to date. I really try to update from time to time but rates, telephone numbers and email adresses are prone to
change.
Aimere - Ngada
Aimere is useful for the crossing with ASDP to Waingapu on Sumba (on Friday, departure 08:00 am, 9 hours) or if you come back from your Belaraghi trekking. Aimere is 1 hour drive from Bajawa on the south coast. There are a few places to stay in case you get stuck or just want to stay at the beach, however the cool nights in Bajawa are only an hour away. There is also a guesthouse 7 kilometers further west in Wae Lengga (Manggarai Timur).

Labuan Bajo - Manggarai Barat
Labuan Bajo has the most hotels in Flores. However I have no idea of the exact amount but I guess it must be at least 300 or so including all the simple penginapan - and it seems almost every month there is a new one. The list below is by far not complete, that's for sure. Some of them can be booked via hotelbookingsites. There is a lot of choice for every budget. Summer can be very crowded so book in advance.
Tip: many names of hotels and guesthouses in Labuan Bajo are more or less similar and often the have “Labuan Bajo or "komodo” in their name, don’t mix them up.

Moni - Ende
In Moni most of the accomodation are guesthouses and homestays with a few rooms only. You don't need aircon as nights are cold. Most of the rooms have hot water. For the months June - September book in advance and be aware of sometimes high prices in July and August. However, every year new guesthouses are built in Moni. So the list here below is not complete, maybe there are a dozen more of them.
In case on the internet websites your choice is fully booked there is a chance you still can book you
room directly, as many of the hotelowners do not put all of their rooms on the internet. And, if everything is really full the alternative is 45 minutes west in Detusoko or maybe
even stay in Ende, 1,5 hours from Moni. But these days there are so many choices that this probably won't happen.
Prices for rooms are often not clear and seem to go up and down.
