3-Star Hotels in North Sumatra, Indonesia

A dated, but generally nice hotel. Unfortunately, the cleanliness leaves something to be desired, and details and amenities are lacking. However, the accommodation, with its beautiful view, is perfect for Instagram posts. The location is quiet and quite remote. The service is very friendly and attentive, although communication in English was a bit sluggish at times. Overall, a good stay, but the price is too high.

The room was quite spacious, the reservation staff were very helpful; unfortunately we don’t get the name of the staffs in charge. Only complaint was the room’s not completely soundproof as one could hear sounds from the room next door. Over all, it was a good accommodation for a quick transit.

Affordable basic room but clean enough ( some ants though). Location is central within 20min walking radius of major malls ( Plaza Medan Fair/Sun/Cambridge), Damri airport bus ( in front of Plaza Medan Fair), family massage/reflexology outlets (Jl.Orion), and the popular medan cakes outlets eg ”bika ambon” (Zulaikha)/”bolu” (Meranti). Car park is available with security. However, the complimentary breakfast is only set without selection option.

Nice room, good but noisy air conditioning, excellent shower. No fridge in the room. The staff are friendly and helpful. I had a great dinner in the restaurant and the breakfast buffet was fantastic: a very wide selection. The area isn't really great. The hotel is quite centrally located in Medan, but it's a chaotic city with heavy traffic. The train station is about a 20-minute walk away.

Overall, Ibis Styles Medan Pattimura offers an above-average stay and is a reasonably good choice for business travelers. One of the hotel's strongest points is its staff, who are consistently friendly, courteous, and attentive. Their professionalism and willingness to assist guests contribute positively to the overall experience. However, the hotel's location is not particularly strategic, making it less convenient for accessing some of the city's main attractions and shopping areas. In addition, the facilities and in-room amenities appear somewhat dated and would benefit from renovation and modernization. The breakfast selection is also rather limited and lacks variety, especially for guests staying multiple days. In conclusion, the hotel provides acceptable comfort and service for business trips, but it may not be the most suitable option for travelers seeking a relaxing holiday or leisure-focused stay. It serves its purpose well for short work-related visits, but there is room for improvement in terms of facilities, location, and dining options.

The hotel is old, things are run down there’s free Wi-Fi, but I never see it working breakfast. Caters only locals almost nothing available for Westerners overall it’s not a bad stay, but for my next trip, this would not be my first choice. If I have to I will stay again. Also, there are cheaper options about the same quality. The hotel stuff is nice though helpful

The hotel is located in front of Lake Toba, offering a very beautiful scenic view. The breakfast provided a wide variety of food, and the room was spacious. I ll stay here again.

Location is good, surrounding with local restaurants and mini mart for basic necessity. Swimming pools located at the back, facing the lake. Depends on the room located, mostly needs to go down or up, therefore it's not suitable for people has limitation to climb the stairs. Rooms is also basic, Breakfast is basic local food.

The Pariban Hotel was very nice, clean, large room but it really needed a small fridge to keep drinks cold and a couch or lounge to sit on. The shower holder was broken so we had to hold the shower to have one which meant showering with 1 hand, there was also never hot water in the mornings for some reason. The food in the restaurant was excellent though. The views were amazing. It was always really noisy with children screaming from morning till late at night. A noise curfew at a certain time would be great. Also they don't cater to international tourists, only local, so there was no toilet paper in the bathroom. The staff were wonderful and extremely helpful people.

Only 10 minutes from Kualanamu International Airport! ✈️ This hotel was clean, the room was spacious, and the area felt safe and wasn’t isolated. They also provided free breakfast and an airport shuttle service, which made my trip so much easier. The best part? The room was only around RM80 per night! Such great value for money. Highly recommended if you’re looking for an affordable stay near Kualanamu Airport! 🤍
