Although I wouldn't want to extend my stay here longer than a night or two, the hotel sufficed as we made our way to Sabang. Ageing poorly and a bit musty, the rooms are clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly (but everyone is friendly) and helpful (not everyone is helpful) with good, not great, knowledge of the area. More

Front desk staff were very friendly but were unable to give any discounts. The room was large and clean, although the bathroom smelt a bit funny. Good sleep quality. Morning breakfast as ok. They were renovating the stairs, so the room was noisy during the day. Quite annoying having to wait 2/3 min for the lift to go down just... More

We stayed for a night in Hotel Medan before leaving for Pulau Weh the day after for holiday. Room was okay, not so fresh. The bed isn't comfy (thats what you get for the price you paid). Wide varieties of Acehnese hawker food on the street across the hotel. There is hot shower provided and TV with varieties of channels... More

I was staying at Hotel Medan for one night before heading to Pulau Weh for some diving, it was at the center of the city, good local food just outside the hotel. However the rooms are just okay, with hot shower, TV and bed, a simple hotel good for a night stay. More

We stayed here for 2 nights, we chose the standard room for 18usd - which I thought a bit expensive - because the deluxe one had no windows and looked smaller. The room was clean and the sheets smelled good. After rustic Ketambe this was pretty comfortable. The bathroom is getting a bit old, specially the very rusty metal on... More

Was coming off a four day road trip across North Sumatra. To finally get hot water, clean beds, air con, electricity and a clean room was such a relief (yes, you can go to really upsacle hotels and not get electricity). Right in the center of town, newly renovated and the price was good for an overnight stay before moving... More

For about 175,000 rupiahs (US$16), you get a superior room with AC and hot shower. The room has no windows. (Standard rooms @ 100,000 Rp are fan cooled.) The bathroom was fairly clean except for the slightly grimy walls and the floor cleaner they use smell too sickeningly sweet. The AC was in good condition and looked fairly new as... More
