Good: Polite staff, clean and spacious rooms
Can be improved: Food at breakfast buffet was cold instead of warm or hot, esp the soups (both savory and sweet). No dim sum and soupy noodles (like Soto mee, bakso mee, etc).
I stayed in the Grand city Hall Medan for 4 nights, Had a bad experience that I ever had. We book 2 apartments. On the 2nd night, 4 people came to my husband apartment and straight to his bedroom, He's shocked wake up suddenly without knowing anything. It's said they open the wrong apartment But How ??
We move forward to the management straight away, and they move us to the suite rooms instead. The management acting fast to solve the problem. But still as a guests for our safety we are still shocked. Imagined 4 people came to your room during nigh time while you are sleep and any thing could happen.
Refurbished old hotel
Advantage - bigger size rooms w super king size bed, nice swimming pool and big lobby
Disadvange - since old hotel, some of the fittings are old
Location is good for food but near crossroad, thus noisy
All the staff are friendly and helpful. Good hotel to consider
Karibia Hotel is located near the Kesawan area (the old city of Medan), making it easy to explore nearby attractions on foot. There are also plenty of artisan cafés around. If you’re here on a weekend, you can catch the car-free day event at Merdeka Walk, just a 5–10 minute walk from the hotel. Upon entering the lobby, you’re greeted with a pleasant scent that gives the hotel a luxurious vibe. The breakfast spread is quite good, featuring mostly Indonesian cuisine. The only downside is that there’s no smart TV. So if you’re planning a staycation and prefer to just stay in the hotel, it might not be ideal as there isn’t much to do; no swimming pool and no smart TV.
The hotel is at strategic location and the room is very spacious with comfortable bed. Breakfast also served varieties of Indonesian dishes.
Our only complaint is we booked non smoking room but we are told it’s full and we have to stay at smoking room with strong tobacco smell.
Hotel staff tried to spray room freshener but the strong smell still lingers.
Overall the hotel is a good stay if you just want comfortable and safe place to sleep after a long day, but don’t expect luxurious facilities or services.
This was my 6th nights stay with separate subsequent bookings due to unknown situation of our mum's conditions who was in nearby hospital. Everything of this hotel was good and convenient, especially the staffs. Not using the other facilities in the hotel at all apart from sleeping and breakfast.
The location is excellent n it is right in the center of medan city.
There is a big mall: delipark mall right opposite the hotel w Sogo as the anchor departal store.
There r many eateries n cinema available on the top floor.
The security of the hotel is very tight that makes me feel safe...
The staff over there r there to welcome us to the hotel
Strategically located within the city . The train station is about 10 minutes walk making intercity travel easy.
Grab services is the way to get food n beers. Grab services makes mobility easy.
The hotel breakfast was clean and good. However, after checking in, they led me to the building in the back, but the smell in the area was really strong. So, I am not sensitive to such things, so I was satisfied with the various facilities and used them well.
Location is in the centre of everything. There’s vip parking in front of the hotel. Breakfast is varied and soo goood! Room is clean,huge. But there’s no bathrobe. Iron and travel adapter is available upon request. Grab food is available untill late night. Service is excellent! 👍🏼

DDarwin KI had a bittersweet experience staying in this apartment. For the good things: the apartment is located strategically near city center, the room is spacious with complete basic amenities. However, there are 2 unpleasant things. First, there is no non-smoking unit except for the high-end room types. I went into a unit with leftover smoke smell, likely from previous guest. Second, the sound-proofing is terrible. My bedroom was facing a street junction, and any roaring noise from the cars/modified bikes penetrated the room as if there was no window to begin with. There was no ear plug the apartment could provide even though this was not the first feedback they have received from previous guests, and I couldn't sleep throughout the night. I booked 4 nights and immediately left after the first night. The service was pretty decent though. The customer service tried to use air purifier to suck out the smoke smell, and attempted to move me to other rooms to no avail because of similar noise problem.

MmirahazwaniThe location of this hotel is near to USU and malls. I love the hospitality here, the cleaner clean the hotel room everyday, they change to new a towel every day. The breakfast menu a bit limited and for the drinks they only served coffee, tea, plain water and orange cordial water everyday. The wifi is fast. The economical standard room is quite small and only fit for 2 people, if you wish to bring yoyr kids please book a bigger room.If you are looking for cheap hotel in Medan with good location and service, i guess the Batik hotel is the best bet. I would definitely will stay at this hotel again in the future.
