“Satisfactory”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed August 26, 2012

Stayed in the hotel through a deal that we purchased online, the stay was satisfactory except that the reception staff wasn't able to practice much flexibility.

We had breakfast & lunch included in the deal, but wanted to head out for shopping since lunch wasn't ready when we check-in to the hotel. We asked if we could have our lunch vouchers used for the next day since we were not going to use it but sadly, we got a flat "no".

Other than that, the hotel was decent with 24hrs room service which was good because we got hungry in the middle of the night. Food was delicious & the staff were all very polite. We tried the buffet breakfast the next morning, and was dismayed to find that most of the food were not replenished. When we approached one of the staff for drinks, they were more than happy to top up (coffee, milk..etc) But that's not the case for food items.

As we had time constraint, we didn't get to try the spa services in the hotel. Overall, it was a decent stay for the money we paid.

“Great location + cozy hotel + friendly staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 20, 2012

I booked the hotel via a package that I had bought on the Internet. Mr Karbel (manager of Swiss-Inn hotel) answered each of my enquiry before I confirmed my package purchase. The arrangement process was a pleasant experience. I even requested for Mr Karbel to do me a small favour by arranging a small birthday cake surprise in my hotel room upon my arrival for my fiance and the outcome was simply great.

We enjoyed the ground tour arranged by the Hotel. Although the places of attraction weren't that enjoyable but the entertaining and humourous tour guide, Winston, made the difference.

“A cozy 3 stars hotel in the city.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 1, 2012 via mobile

We booked the hotel through an online package.Arrangement was done by the hotel staff to pick us up from the ferry terminal,follow by city tour,lunch & massage. After viewing the superior and deluxe room,we chose the deluxe room as it is more spacious and it include a bathtub. The location of this hotel is very good,as it is 3 mins slow walk to Top100 shopping mall, across the hotel main road to BCS shopping mall is within the 10mins slow walk, no need to take cab unless raining.

Check in and out was fast and prompt. Service by the hotel staff was good, if not for my wife whom can converse in bahasa, things would have be perfect. We enjoy our stay,and definitely will come back to this hotel in few months time.

“Comfortable room for a short stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed June 28, 2012

I made a trip to Batam for some shopping and good food. Even though it was just for a night, I was looking for a hotel comfortable enough.

Location:
It was close enough for a cheap ride to the major malls via cab but a bit too tiring if you choose to walk

Rooms:
Clean with reasonably maintained furniture. Toilet was a bit smaller than what you would expect for a room of this size but it's clean nonetheless.

Facilities/Services:
