Carrying a unique Indonesian culture and fine art theme but curated in world-class luxury, Hotel Tugu’s vision is to provide an authentic ‘Indonesian’ experience in terms of telling historical accounts and legends of the very romantic but forgotten stories of the archipelago. This uniqueness makes Tugu Group hotels and restaurants considered very special compared to other international ‘chain’ hotels.

“We want high-end international guests to be amazed and to open their eyes to the extraordinary history and diversity of Indonesian culture through design and experience that can only be found in Tugu,” said Lucienne Anhar, Managing Director of Tugu Hotels Hotels & Restaurants. “when we built Hotel Tugu Lombok, we were inspired by the history of the island of Lombok, including the discovery of the Nagarakrtagama manuscript from Mpu Prapanca in Cakranegara, the atmosphere of the Ampenan city in 1894, the memory of the Dutch war and Karangasem, and the Mahabharata and Ramayana legends influenced by the local interpretation of the story the people of Lombok.

Located on kilometers long of a sparkling white beach, with amazing views of the sunrise beneath Mount Rinjani, 10 minutes from the Gili Air Islands, Meno and Trawangan, guests can enjoy snorkeling or use a stand up paddleboard directly at the beachfront of the hotel or enjoy the sunrise breakfast onboard the hotel’s Naga Mesem. For golf enthusiasts, the Tugu Hotel which consists of 36 villas & bungalows is also right next to an international class 18-hole golf course. Ancient temples, giant sculptures and magnificent architecture rich in the heritage of the typical Lombok’s Sasak tribe and the interpretation of legends from the epic Mahabharata, will bring guests as if awakened in another very exotic world, hundreds of years ago. The natural peace found at Hotel Tugu Lombok inspires the name of the spa building at Hotel Tugu: Svarga Hening. Guests can enjoy unique suites with king-size beds made from intact tree wood, bathe in a bathtub made of river stone, and enjoy a private plunge pool with views directly to the sea.

Many activities that guests can enjoy include snorkelling, diving, fishing, waterfalls, bike tours, and hiking on Mount Rinjani. For guests planning a wedding, Hotel Tugu is an extraordinarily romantic place for a very exclusive celebration. Many venues can be chosen, including on ancient temples or barefoot weddings on the white beach overlooking the bluish-green sea, witnessed by the magnificent Mount Rinjani and millions of stars in the limitless skies.
