Hotels Near Shope&drive in Medan

Excellent personal service by all the staff. We had problems with our initial room in that it had no windows (which wasn't mentioned in the description) and the shower flooded the whole bathroom, which made everywhere feel damp. However, the staff found us another room for an upgrade and that was much better. The location was good, allowing us to walk to the old town and also some of the newer shopping centres. Overall, good value for money.

We only stayed at this hotel because we were attending a wedding reception being held there. I have stayed in more than 150 hotels around the world and for the first time I was required to pay a refundable deposit for a remote control for the A/C. The bathroom is exceedingly tiny. My cat couldn't swing a cat in it. There was no hot water at 5:00pm after we had travelled 5 hours to get there and really needed to freshen up. On our way to dinner, I asked at reception about this and was told that due to ”technical problems” we could only have hot water from 6 - 8AM and from 6 - 8PM. I explained that I did not know about this. The receptionist then showed me a document that I had not seen nor been shown when checking in that explained the situation. I suggested that guests should be informed about this when checking in. Miraculously, the 'technical problems' were resolved the following morning. The staff were not aware of what was happening at the property. We asked if there was live music. The receptionist directed us to two venues on the property, but each was closed. Only the disco was open. The food in the restaurant was mediocre at best. They try to do this barbeque thing at the table, but it fails to deliver. There were plenty of plates, cups, glasses and so on, but only one spoon. There's no light above the cabinet where you make tea or prepare snacks etc. The light above the makeup / grooming mirror was not working. They clearly don't check that everything is working when they clean the rooms. The furniture, carpets, cabinetry, wall coverings etc are very dated. However, the bed was comfortable and the wall covering behind the bed was relatively new. There's no safe in the room. I know that safes are expense and there are always technical problems, but pretty much every property that says it's 4-star has a room safe. The worst part from a safety perspective is that the elevator doors close within a very short time. I injured my arm as the door closed on me within 5 or so seconds and hit me quite hard. A petite granny could have been seriously injured. No-one seems to care. It's an obvious problem and should have been fixed. The restaurant did not stock beer or wine or any other alcoholic beverage. It's a property that management doesn't seem to care about. The staff are helpful, willing, courteous and respectful, but not properly trained. This is a sign that management or ownership doesn't give a toss.

The restaurant in Aryaduta called The Kitchen, I have tried their Watermelon Yogurt, and it was delicious. I couldn't finish and ask them pack for me, they even take the initiative to send it to my room. Very good service.

I stayed here 4-nights for a conference that’s also happening in this hotel. So many things have gone wrong and enough reasons for me not coming back. 1. The reception (or should I said “deception”?), misguided me. They said my room is upgraded to Premiere room, with complimentary afternoon tea, and minibar. More about this below. 2. Went to the room but nothing special, also the weird furniture placement makes the room smaller. Room has view but mostly just building roofs. Appreciate the giant shower head though. 3. Went for afternoon tea with my business colleague and the waitress said I’m not eligible for the complimentary. She said the receptionist made a mistake. Fine. 4. Got a call from reception, she said that Ieft my ID card at the reception. Which can be avoided if she did not forget to pass the ID card back after she copied it in. Went back to reception to get my ID card, and ask the reception about the afternoon tea to confirm whether I’m eligible or not. She said not and the minibar also not free unfortunately. Thank God I haven’t eat anything from the minibar 5. Breakfast at level 3 is unorganized, chaotic, and basically madness without crowd control. However I managed to get to the level 10 which is more quiet. Food quality is average. 6. I realized an item missing from the minibar, I did not consume them at all. I called in the operator and they were like “are you sure you’re staying alone, Sir?” I’m like… unbelieveable, why don’t you check with the housekeeping if they removed it or else? I just don’t want it to be billed on my room charge. I know it’s just a potato chip that I could easily replace from minimart, but imagine if they took other items and then billed it to your room. 7. The only nice experience I had in this hotel is the dinner, food surprisingly decent. Also the service is nice (maybe because we were the only customers?). Oh and concierge staffs also very helpful keeping my deliveries and helping me with my stuff when I checked out without me asking.

Room is clean but not fitted with night light lamp . Mattress is a bit too soft but pillow is too hard . Maybe that made me cannot sleep nicely . The sound proof is not that good and next day TV sound can be heard if the room have internal door access to other room type . Elevator service seems to be a bit slow .

Hotel located at decent area, with food surrounding the area. Pros: 1. Great housekeeping and front desk team 2. Staff in this hotel is definitely the highlights 3. They provide WhatsApp number for any request 4. Newly renovated is decently furnished for the price Cons: 1. Shower pressure is extremely weak, and they can't increase it, no matter how you adjust it and even getting engineering to look into it. 2. Facilities is not renovated, i.e swimming pool area. 3. Other guest is a nightmare (part 1) they smoke at the swimming pool area, then proceed to throw cigarette butts and spit into the swimming pool. Treating it like their waste pool. Secondly guest is wearing their full clothing and jump into the swimming pool. What a joke.. 4. Other guest (part 2) inconsiderate guest who is extremely noisy, and kept moving furniture thru out the night 4am and morning 8am, not to mention, they smoke in the non smoking room and the smell gets thru my room, due to shared ventilation. 1mil rupiah fine is too little!! Some suggestions, have a exit direct to swimming pool, instead of going thru smoking room at level 2. Perhaps put non Indonesian couple on the same floor, instead of mixing them with other unruly guest. Have a guard to control people in swimming pool to ensure pool rules is enforced, knowing Indonesian guest have 0 education on following rules.

Good location, good room, good restaurant. But what really made this an excellent rating was the staff. All the staff were polite and helpful. Special mention for Putra and Dewi on the front desk. These 2 really went out of their way to help me out. I cannot thank them enough. They are a credit to the organisation. I would like to make a couple of suggestions though. The front entrance has steep steps, please consider installing a ramp along the side to assist people with mobility issues and those carrying heavy luggage. Also the front off street parking area. Once again it can be an issue for less able bodied people to get past the parked cars. Please encourage guests to use the underground car park thus leaving the front less congested. I will definately stay here again if I visit Medan.

We had such a wonderful stay at Swiss-Belinn - Ade was extremely friendly and helpful,, and made our stay so lovely! The bed is super comfortable,-excellent hotel, and all small details have been considered on behalf of guests. Very good value for money. Food is also quite good.nd the coffee at the restaurant is insanely good. Seriously, we are still talking about it. I can't wait to come back and see Ade and the rest of the wonderful staff!

Staying for two nights in their most basic room. The moment i entered the room, i know this is such a good bargain and definitely best value for similar hotel at its level. Room was super clean, very well maintained, definitely 5 star level of maintenance. Its spacious and bed is super comfy (quite firm which i prefer), even bolster is provided! there is small fridge, safe deposit box, electronic water kettle with large mug and instant coffees / teas. The hotel doesn't provide daily bottled water, but instead, they provide water jug which i can always refill from dispenser right outside my room (room tips: choose any room with 07, the dispenser is right outside your door). There are lazy chair with small round table and ergonomic working chair by the desk. Aircon works very well to beat Medan heat. Overall, room is very spacious! Bathroom is also sparking clean, toilet is shining white and no sewage smell at all. its really that clean. kudos to the cleaning team. toiletries provided is basic. special mention to the wooden toothbrush and branded toothpaste. Bathtowel is huge and thick. Shower is very strong with very easy to adjust heating. i didn't opt in for breakfast, so can't review on that. Alternatively, Medan has plenty option for local breakfast. Although the hotel doesn't have fancy swimming pools or gym, but the cleanliness and quality of the room makes up. My only complain is the internet can get unstable / slow especially during the night. The receptionist refused to bring the food i order online upstair (while their cleaning staff said it was okay). One day i called and requested to get my room clean up when i grab breakfast outside, but when i returned the room is not yet cleaned, they said the room cleaning takes turn (i wasn't informed on this when i called). but overall, its really good hotel for the price. highly recommended

I was staying during EID season, booked for 10 rooms. The manager, Mr. Saut Purba was really helpful in assisting my reservations. He tried his best to fulfill my request, such as connecting room and same floor level because I stayed with my big family. The best surprise was upgrading room on 10th floor for myself. Thank you sooo much! Mr. Saut also assisted in arranging birthday surprise for my brother-in-law, some staffs are joining us to knock on his room with pretty bday cake and wishes. The breakfast was excellent, food are tasteful, me and my family loved it. This hotel served severals choices on their breakfast buffet. This hotel also had a nice swimming pool, it was not big but clean and safe for children. The front office staff are gorgeous during my checkout. Last but not least, thank you Grandhika Hotel for such a memorable stay. :-)
