Thompson Guest House & Pet Hotel Banyuwangi

Six rooms in a residential compound on Jalan Durian Raya, Thompson Guest House sits inside the Kalipuro Asri housing estate on Banyuwangi's northern fringe — an address that trades city-centre convenience for quiet suburban streets and quick access to the Ketapang ferry terminal serving Bali.

The property doubles as a pet hotel, a practical rarity in East Java that makes it a practical base for travelers arriving with animals. The residential setting means meals and services follow a guesthouse rhythm rather than a hotel schedule.

Banyuwangi itself is the departure point for Ijen crater, roughly 35 kilometres southwest, where the blue-fire sulfuric vents draw early-morning trekkers. The Ketapang–Gilimanuk crossing to Bali runs around the clock from nearby.
