"The islands only KFC, a supermarket across the hotel and some seafood restaurants. Will need to travel by car for better more options. The breakfast is better than maxi. Pool nothing much to rave out. Inside the room there is smart TV which maxi doesn't have. Rooms are more spacious and there are sofa in the the suites. The difference between suite and deluxe Premier is the smart TV, sofa and the bath tub."
"Several Times Staying at this hotel and is one of my favorite hotel when it comes to visiting and staying at Tanjung Balai Karimun.
Hotel located very close to seaport, about 15mins walking distance from jetty to the hotel, all along the road theres a lots of shops and just beside the hotel (10mtr) there are groceries store and few Money changer which offer better rate compared with the Money Changer located at the Jetty.
Stayed for 2 nights, room equipped with hot water, air conditioned, stable wifi, nice sea view from the new standard room with good buffet style breakfast provided. There are few tables for thus who want to sit outside facing the sea, very comforting while having your breakfast.
There are also Karaoke and Pool table located at the 7th floor. For thus who want quiet room, kindly avoid 6th floor, new wings (New Standard Room)
Downside -
•During my stay i ask for Housekeeping around 3.30pm after In room massage and nobody attend my room until i check out on the next morning. Basically 2 rooms (615 and 614) requested for housekeeping and was never attended.
•Hotel located on one of the busiest street, there is massive traffic in front of the hotel.
•For the Karaoke, i noticed there are few rooms with Left and right speakers connecting in reverse order causing the audio phase cancellation, as such you need to sit on the side room to hear the low frequency and it is better if in future they hotel management can equipped the KTV room with a suitable sub woofer in order to boost the karaoke excitement."
"for the first experience of a holiday at Balai Karimun. This hotel has a pretty good location, you can walk, lots of food choices around. clean and friendly all the staff.
Thanksyou all! Good hotel"
"The hotel is abit old. Initially when i entered the room, the floor is quite dirty with shreds all over the place and the aircon is not cold. But when i feedback to the staff, they are very friendly and had sent an engineer to fix the aircon. The bedsheets and pillow is quite rough and the bathtub is abit old too but could not be expect much with the amount being paid. One good thing about this hotel is the fridge is actually quite cold as compared to some big hotels. My mineral water was minimally frozen?!! There are also restaurants and a mart nearby so its actually not bad to stay."
"Good location, near to city center. Staff very friendly and helpful. She helped us to book a taxi for a short island tour. Facilities wise reasonable. Breakfast provided was normal. The food outside the hotel is considered okay and reasonably priced."
"Very comfortable! Nice view. Only 3 minutes from the big port. In front of the hotel entrance there is a night market. Need to go up the stairs to the hotel, but only one floor. Downstairs there is a food stall, be careful for foreigners who are not familiar. The room is complete with AC, toiletries, one chair, dresser mirror, wardrobe. The room can hold a lot. Receptionist is very helpful if you need anything. Suggestions to change the pillow lower, clean the dust, better towels. Clean toilet, rusty iron please change. Maybe you can add a small table to hang out on the balcony"
"Recommended.... The hotel is very close to the Jetty... the staff are all friendly and very helpful... the breakfast menu is delicious and a variety of menus... I just recommend preparing a room for ironing clothes... I stayed for 2 nights... the next day 2 cleaners clean the room and change towels..."
"My room number was 202
Below were the defective items:
1. Shower water heater sprinkler was not proper function.
2. Toilet bowl water tank was shaking and water seeping out.
3. Clothing cabinet hanger bar not firm, dropping easily.
4. Wifi VERY weak, inside the room unable to connect, must go outside corridor.
5. Hand washing sink water tap function defectively."
"The hotel is located facing the sea, but unfortunately none of the three rooms we arranged faced the sea, which was a bit disappointing. The hotel has a swimming pool, which is very good. The breakfast needs to be improved. The service attitude of the hotel staff is ok but their English needs to be improved. If you want to have a good rest, this hotel is a good choice, but next time I will definitely choose a hotel facing the sea."
