Pros:

We stayed in the long house with private bathroom and toilet. This is a national park not a 4 or 5 star hotel accommodation so it is necessary to manage expectations. All basic needs are met. Laundry service is available and very affordable. Hair dryer is available too, request from park office.

Cons:

i remind myself this is a national park. so i need to share my living space with all the insects around the park. No TV and Internet connection depends on luck. sometimes the connection in the middle of the forest is better than the room. food at the cafe is sufficient to feed you but nothing to shout about.

Beste Unterkunft für den Mulu Nationalpark
Pros:

Super Lage im Nationalpark. Wir würden wieder diese Unterkunft wählen und sie allen empfehlen. Sehr schöne Häuschen mit sehr schönen Zimmern. Gutes Badezimmer, gute Dusche. Auffüllstationen für Trinkwasser sind vorhanden.

Cons:

Wir wurden vor der Ankunft nicht über die Anreise zur Unterkunft informiert. Die Unterkunft hat keinen Abholdienst. Man muss am Flughafen lokale Leute fragen, ob sie einen mitnehmen (5 Ringgit pro Person). Die Unterkunft war telefonisch und über Booking.com aber gut erreichbar und hat uns dies erklären können. Es wäre allerdings hilfreich gewesen, hätten wir das bereits im Voraus gewusst.

Beautiful stay in the heart of the rain forest
Pros:

Wonderful two night stay in the NP base. The cottages were very clean and comfortable. The food was also really good.
Joined the Deer cave walk and watched the amazing bat exodus from the cave. Did other self guided walks and had a fantastic time.

Highly recommend
Pros:

The setting is idylic to say the least, it's really convenient for all the activities inside of Mulu NP. The rooms are spacious, clean and new.

Cons:

The only improvement would be a buffet style breakfast.

Pros:

I love the forest trails that Mulu has to offer. The insect life was fantastic although bird photography can be challenging in the dense forest.

Cons:

I wished the cafe had more options for our meals

ムル公園満喫できる!
Pros:

公園の中なので、朝から夜まで自然を満喫できた。朝は鳥の鳴き声、夜はカエルの大合唱。トイレとシャワーが別の部屋で、どちらも広々としていて気持ちよく使えた。スタッフの方も、困りごとにも相談にのってくれてみんな親切だった。

Cons:

ヘアドライヤーを100RMのデポジットで借りることができると部屋に書いてあったが、気づくのが遅くてもう受付が閉まったあとだった。借りたい人はチェックインのときに言っておくといいと思う。入口から部屋までの道は木でできた道で隙間があるので、あまり大きいスーツケースじゃないほうが移動しやすいと思う。

Buena experiencia en la selva de Mulu
Pros:

En el mismo parque, con todo accesible y en mitad de la selva. Habitación amplia y cómoda, buena ducha y colchones cómodos, todo con pasarelas y mucha naturaleza y animales.

Cons:

A veces se iba la luz pero lo solucionaban pronto. Lo peor tal vez sea la comida y cena por horarios, prisas de empleados y algún trabajador, igual que la tienda que tienen, bastante básica y mala. El precio de las habitaciones algo elevado para ser Borneo pero merece la pena quedarse allí solo por donde se encuentra.

Cons:

Man darf nicht allzu viel erwarten.

Its a lodge - its fine but not great
Pros:

What we really loved was how close you are to everything. Staying in the longhouse means you are right inside the park, and all tours start basically from your doorstep. For us, that made logistics incredibly easy — especially with kids.

The rooms are simple but clean, which honestly exceeded our expectations given how remote the location is.

The setup with four single beds in one room actually worked really well for us as a family — no need for extra beds or complicated arrangements.

We also really appreciated the staff and guides, who were consistently friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. That added a lot to the experience, especially when doing tours with children.

There’s something quite special about staying in a traditional longhouse-style building on stilts in the jungle — it feels authentic and very different from normal hotels.

And overall, from a Danish perspective, it’s good value for what it is — you’re paying for location and experience, not luxury.

Cons:

This is where expectations matter a lot: the longhouse is very basic.

The rooms are simple
Bathrooms can feel a bit outdated
Don’t expect hotel-level comfort

Even reviews mention that bathrooms could use upgrading.

The biggest adjustment for us was the lack of comfort and facilities:

No TV
Limited or no WiFi
Very few places to relax indoors

That’s fine for adults — but for kids, it can be challenging in the evenings.

Because it’s a longhouse, you also get noise from neighbors. You share walls and walkways, so it’s not very private or quiet.

Food options are limited to the park café, which is okay but not very varied — especially if you stay several days.

And then there’s the overall reality: you are in the jungle.

Heat and humidity
Insects
Limited flexibility

That’s part of the experience — but it’s not always easy with children.

Also some experiences in the park is quite overpriced
