Padel Talks

Padel Talks is a premium padel club in Cicendo, a short hop from Husein Sastranegara airport and well placed for the north-west side of Bandung. The club's own pitch is refreshingly short: a premium padel club with Super Panoramic courts built to FIP standard. What it does not shout about is the price — sessions start at Rp 75,000, which makes it one of the most accessible tournament-spec courts anywhere in the city.

The courts

Two indoor courts, listed simply as Lapangan 1 and Lapangan 2, both described by the venue as Super Panoramic padel courts built to Federación Internacional de Pádel standard. Booking runs in hourly blocks from 06:00 to midnight, with rates moving from Rp 75,000 in off-peak hours to Rp 125,000 at peak. With only two courts, weekend evening slots go quickly.

Facilities

• Hot showers, standard showers and changing rooms
• Spectator seating alongside the courts
• Snack and drink counters on site
• Prayer room (musholla), toilets and Wi-Fi
• Car and motorbike parking

House rules worth knowing

Non-marking sports shoes are mandatory and sessions run strictly to the clock — the timer starts at your booked slot whether you are on court or not. Reservations cannot be cancelled, though a reschedule can be arranged through the app or the club's WhatsApp line. Smoking, vaping and alcohol are prohibited in the court area, and players are expected to arrive fit to play.

Coaching and community

Padel Talks does not run its own coaching programme, but it takes an unusually open line on outside help: the rules expressly allow players to bring their own coach or ballboy. For independent coaches building a client base in Bandung, that makes it one of the easier venues in the city to work from. Ratings sit at 4.8 out of 5 across 81 scores, with court condition rated 4.73.
