[2025 Nagoya Stay] Travel Guide for Aston Inn Gideon Batam (Updated Jun)

#indonesiatrip Si Fang Yuan is a dimsum restaurant located in Batam, Indonesia. It's just located nearby the famous A2 food court, Batam City Square Mall and just beside Aston Inn Hotel. The restaurant is crowded but their services and food is fast. Recommended those who wanna give a try must go there early or avoid the peak hours. Overall the food is nice but the price is slightly higher maybe because it's only the dimsun restaurant and non halal in Batam. Good try if you want to go for brunch or tea time with some snacks when you visit Batam. 📍Si Fang Yuan Dimsum 📮 Kota Batam Indonesia 🕒 Mon – Sun : 7am - 10pm #batam #Indonesia #weekendgateway

Its been 3 years since we last visited Batam due to Covid. The place is not as crowded as pre-Covid times which we really appreciates it. Walking in to have a relaxing massage is possible now despite being in a crowd of 6-7 pax! Price seems to be more expensive in general now though. Still overall the price is much more cheaper than Singapore. you can find many good buys in the supermarkets. Do bring a bigger luggage bag to haul all the buys back! It’s great to be back to Batam for Singaporeans.

the breakfast in Aston Inn Gideon Hotel in Batam is terrible. The half boil egg is completely raw and the noodle is very salty. Room and location is good.

Great location with comfortable rooms, walking distance to market, BCS and Grand Batam Centre. near to to A2 Food court. Many food selections available and massage places too.

First time trip to Batam, many research i do. One of the thing is hotel.Not to pricey and not to cheap and also delicious breakfast 😂. But aston inn hotel too much superb!!! definitely will come again. A big room , varieties breakfast, amenities and i dont think i have complaining. ohh yeah, aston inn hotel also nearest with all mall like batam centre squar, batam grand mall and nagoya mall 😊.

nice room with good amenities and nice view from the room window nearby are shopping mall and foods all are walking distance. Address - Ambiance/Facilities - breakfast and nice ambiance Highlights - nice window view Avg. Price per Person - $40-$50 Rating - 5

With trip.com very fuss free. but the downside my room was facing the other building. very near that can the the wall of the building and no sightseeing. But luckily is a nearby to a few shopping centre.Food is no problem. just go down and there’s a lot of vendors.

1st time go batam with my parent and my 5 years old little girl. This is really a great place to stay , shopping mall (Grand batam Mall) , food court , restaurant wet market ..etc are all walking distance.... it is super convenient . staffs are all very friendly too .. buffet breakfast also very good with lots of choices . we were so lucky to get both our rooms upgraded to family suites , the room is huge , 1 with king size bed , another one with 1 queen bed + 1 super single bed.. that's a platform (bay window) big enough for my girl to dance and sing on top 🤣🤣
