my bromo hotel help ?????????????
 

everybody has said to sleep on the mountain. lava view lodge is booked. in the lonely planet book theres a place called hoyel bromo permai 1 . when i pull it up it says its in sarabaya and not the cemoro lawang area. anybody have any other suggestions on where to stay or what area ? thanks

Como se what??!

filmwill, this is on Java.

stephen, marmot will likely be your best resource for this info. I hope she sees your post.

Lava View is the only one I'm personally familar with. I'd check the list from Wikitravel:

Hotel Bromo Permai is definitely in the city of Surabaya not on Bromo.

I stayed at Bromo Cottage (http://www.bromocottages.com/). It's only a 30 minute or so drive from the rim. Not fancy, but good enough for the half-night sleep you get when seeing Bromo.
