Absolutely stunning, it felt as if I was sleeping in the middle of the jungle, yet I was so close to everything! The rooms are super cosy, I loved to use the hammock just chilling on the balcony, listening to the sounds of the stream and animals. The staff is very friendly, their restaurant serves delicious food and you also get a welcome drink.

This is the most amazing place to stay. I've been to the jungle in India, Borneo and the Phillipines but Rambai Tree Eco Jungle Huts not only provided the most comfortable accommodation but they made us feel like family ❤️🙏. Romi and Tia communicated efficiently and clearly from the moment I booked, several months ago. They provided a very reasonably priced, friendly and knowledgeable return airport shuttle - Wayhu, and the best guides - Ronie and Nanda. We saw Orangutans, Gibbons, Thomas Leaf Monkeys, and a monitor lizard in just a half day trek! As well as being visited daily by the local Macaque troop and several large bats. Tia cooked us the most fantastic farewell dinner and we were genuinely sad to leave. Nothing was too much trouble for them ❤️

We treated ourself to a more expensive place (for Sumatra) the end of our jungle trek and we didn’t regret it. The food, facilities and room were all incredible! The staff were very welcoming and friendly and made a great relationship with the guests, especially those who stayed longer. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we were happy.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Cambridge Hotel! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to assist us promptly. Their helpfulness was invaluable, especially since we don't speak Indonesian. Most of the staff members were fluent in English, making communication easy for our family. The breakfast buffet was a delightful surprise. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. We thoroughly enjoyed every dish, and the clean and inviting atmosphere made the dining experience even more pleasant. The hotel's strategic location is a major plus. Its direct connection to the mall makes it incredibly convenient for guests, offering easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Hotel just in the heart of city. The hotel staff went above and beyond, even accommodating our early check-in request. Their exceptional service and warm hospitality made our stay truly memorable. We wholeheartedly recommend this hotel and extend our sincere gratitude to the Cambridge Hotel for such a wonderful experience.

The resort is a great place for family holidays, especially ones with younger children. You can spend your entire trip here. Though we were out of the resort exploring during the days, coming back to the clean beds, hot water, good wifi, it feels perfect. I liked the buffet breakfast with a view of the lake. The Indonesian dishes are usually good. Definitely try the Soto udang at Pangambatan cafe. You can use Visa to pay here. If you'd like to do sightseeing, they can arrange drivers for the whole day, payment is cash up front. Service here is excellent, especially from Ms Citra, the Room Division Manager.

Great hotel, great breakfast buffet - wide selection of dishes. Large bright rooms with balcony overlooking the mountains and two large swimming pools, I recommend this hotel. Very easy booking and helpful staff. We had the opportunity to meet the General Manager of the hotel and all the staff, who were at our disposal all the time. They helped us organize trips around the area - we are impressed by such friendly staff. Greetings to all the hotel staff. This is one of the best hotels we have stayed in Indonesia.

We had an unforgettable stay at the EcoLodge! The accommodation and our room were really lovely. Our absolute highlight was the bamboo house with the restaurant and chill-out area. The staff were super helpful and friendly. We also loved the sustainability concept of the EcoLodge together with the EcoFarm. The village tour and jungle trekking we booked through them were amazing experiences as well. We’d definitely come back anytime!

Their executive room is the best value in Medan and beyond. Breakfast is very rich, they have a business center too, not sure why the hotel is only 3-star, maybe due to it's relatively small size or the immediate surroundings (location is centric but outside street is a bit dusty and hectic). But the experience is 5 star, at least when staying in an executive room.

Tuk Tuk is mainly where beginner tourists stay, just like me. Tuk Tuk has many restaurants, cafes, hotels, resorts, homestays and guesthouses. Those are located along the main road at Tuk Tuk as well. If you do not want to spend on cafes and restaurants, no worries, there are convenient stores and shops along the main road. Very simple. But I would suggest people go to the restaurant and eat their local cuisines and seafood for the better. The only downside is the main road of Tuk Tuk is very troublesome and tough to walk and cycle as it is very steep going up and down. It is not a road that is stable. I would recommend people take a motorbike, scooter or car to travel along the main road.

Cesspool!! Open sewers everywhere.

Cesspool!! Open sewers everywhere. The whole town stinks of human and animal waste. Very dirty, trash everywhere. Hostile environment towards outsiders and tourists. Locals openly abuse animals all the time. Impossible to safely consume any food that is not pre-packaged from a Western brand. Consuming anything local or freshly made carries a high risk of infections, parasites, and diseases. No soap anywhere. Everyone tries to cheat you. Hike with Berastagi Adventures is an exception. They are good guides.

The volcano hike was amazing and so beautiful, but there wasn’t much else to do after that. If in a straight couple or a mixed gender group it might be more pleasant to wander around and explore the the town, but as a solo woman or two women it was quite uncomfortable in terms of the amount of attention and harassment we received. If I went again I would just arrive in the afternoon, do the hike in the AM, and then head off again after that.

We just left and are already thinking about when we'll return. We've experienced a wonderful place: its people, its jungle, its culture. We've always been greeted with smiles, joy, and support from the entire town. The food is always great! And what can we say about the surroundings? We're nature lovers, so there couldn't be a better place. We'll definitely be back! We stayed in Eriono, an unbeatable location. We also stayed at the Garden Inn. But there are many good places and plenty of places to eat or drink. Getting around Bukit is very easy; you can walk everywhere, but if not, you can take a motorbike, tuk-tuk, or car; anything is possible. What we really liked was the four-day trek through the jungle, and being able to observe orangutans was magical.

Medan is an interesting city with a mix of different cultures - Batak, Javanse Achenese, Chinese. There are some excellent restaurants - in the old China Town. I recommend Cambridge Mall for Restaurants and Cinemas. I also recommend visiting Berastagi , 3 hours by car. A charming Hill station where they grow beautiful flowers and fruits.
