2-Star Hotels in North Sumatra, Indonesia

The bathing place directly on the lake is good but the rooms use fans, you can't drink bottles, the rooms smell damp, the floors are sandy, there is no room cleaning service. The price is right🙏 view the photos uploaded below

Located in the heart of Medan, Kama Hotel is very easy to access, especially if you arrive by airport train. As a solo traveller, I really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is affordable, the staff are friendly, and the location is convenient for exploring the city. The best part for me was the Dopio Coffee at the lobby, where you can enjoy a great taste of authentic Medan coffee. Highly recommended for solo travellers and families looking for a comfortable and budget-friendly stay in Medan.

Strategic location, very clean accomodation, friendly and helpfull. Free parking. The downfall was no extra bed as the hotel always full house

The service is very satisfactory, the customer service is very enthusiastic, and the room is very clean

If you’re looking for peace and quiet a bit away from the main town, Tuktuk Timbul is very well located. We stayed in one of their traditional-style little houses, which were very cute and charming. It’s a great spot if your plan is simply to relax, enjoy the atmosphere, and do nothing much. The homestay has a restaurant (we didn’t try the food though), a pool, a ping pong table, and a billiard table — so you can easily stay entertained without leaving the property. For the price, it’s definitely good value. That said, if you want to explore or do activities around Lake Toba, this may not be the best base. There isn’t much to do in the immediate area, and the staff weren’t very helpful when we asked for recommendations — apart from renting a scooter, they didn’t provide much guidance. Communication was also tricky as they don’t really speak English. Service felt a bit cold overall; the owners live nearby but never greeted us, which made us feel like we were disturbing them rather than being welcomed. In summary: a good option if your goal is to switch off, relax, and stay put at the homestay itself. But if you’re looking for friendly service, local tips, or activities beyond the property, you might find it lacking.

Nice room , easy to check in . Located at mall. Nice staff. Food easy to get. Recomended for short trip

The place are quite new big room & still need to improved more. No TV, no AC either fan in the room. Nice bed, nice View from the room & got more plug at the room. Just need to walk down and up the stair too much. No short cut. So far the owner was kind & helpful. TQ Penginapan Mafir.
