Enjoyed our 1 night stay in this hotel before joining an expedition ship cruise. Hotel very nice, room clean, very comfortable, excellent hotel, very hospitable staff and service including airport pickup, great bar/cafe. Minor issue was service in restaurant for dinner, we ordered our meals, my partner's meal was served very quickly, mine was served about 30 minutes later, well after my partner had finished hers. But overall a very good hotel. Kendari town itself rather unattractive, rubbish everywhere and waterways like sewers but if travelling through Kendari then Swiss Belhotel is certainly the place to stay.
