Splendid Taman Simalem Resort
A very relaxing stay in Taman Simalem Resort. The staff were all so friendly, lead by their capable GM Benard. Special thanks to Kaban, Citra and Jessica for their exceptional services, as well as the restaurant staff at Tongqing and Waterfall venues. The resort has nice rooms overseeing the Lake Toba.

the scenery is jaw dropping. The estate is big covering 1 hill i guess. But the drawback is you need car to travel from one end to another. Amenities are plenty to choose and keep you busy for few days stay.

Kamar tidak ada toilet dalam
Kamar ini tidak memiliki toilet di dalam tapi tidak ada deskripsinya. Saya mengajak ke 2 orang tua saya yg berumur 80 tahun dan malam mereka sering hrs ke toilet. Waktu mau upgrade ternyata mereka tidak mempunyai kamar 4 orang dengan toilet di dalam. Saya terpaksa menghabiskan 3 jura rupiah untuk sewa 1 kamar yang ada toilet dan dikenakan harga walk in yang mahal lagi.

An unassuming experience
We wanted to visit Lake Toba and decided to Taman Simalem Resort (TSR) after reading much about the activities catered by the Resort. Was impressed with the homely service provided by the staff in TSR, it feels like another trip to Club Med. We decided to stay at Tongging Point Lodge as they have room for 4 twins which is convenient for me to gather my 2 teens to get moving for activities. We have great experience with the lady (forgot her name) who brought us through the coffee processing and roasting process. Definitely very enriching for city dwellers like us. The jungle treking was absolute a good workout and a refreshing one at the Twins waterfalls. We were highly encouraged those who visits TSR to go One Tree Hill for the breathtaking view though Tongging Point does have great view as well. The key highlight is the foods served in TSR, they were mainly organic vegetables and fruits. Last but least, we sincerely wanted to say a great thank you to all the staff in TSR despite there is imperfection.

The view is really beautiful and for the future guests do not underestimate the weather, it's really cold and windy, make sure you bring long sleeves, sweater, socks etc.The staffs are friendly and helpful. We paid 2.4 juta rupiah per night but there was no toiletries provided, only soap and shampoo in the bathroom but they didn't refill it, plus the outside toilet was so dirty and smelly in the morning and at night.There is no tv in the room and wifi is not working, every time you logged in, u must call the receptionist to get new wifi password which is so troublesome. It's very expensive for the basic room which is no tv, wifi problem, toilet outside (smelly and dirty). no toiletries provided,no iron. Just bear in mind, it's expensive because of the view with a really basic room.

Dear Mr/Ms S. Akma, We are sorry to hear about your unpleasant experiences. You have booked our Lodge room which is a dormitory style accommodation for 4 people in a room. We do offer other normal hotel rooms with attached bathroom and amenities as well as villa units. Nevertheless, we acknowledge the shortfall in our lodge housekeeping. The staff in charge has been counselled to be more vigilant and fast in replenishing the communal toilet supplies. As for our IT infrastructure, we are limited due to our hilly terrain and lack of choice of service provider but will continue to find means to improve. Once again, thank you for your kind review. We will strive to do better.

A should go place!
It was an amazing stay. The sun rise....the view. I definitely will come back here and would recommend friends and family to put it as their to go place. However, your staff are not really helpful when i ask for information regarding my transport back to medan as i was told by the driver that i only booked a one way trip. Your staff told me that i have to wait and see whether they have a driver on that day. Which is too late, what if there is no transport? In the end i have to do everything on my own. From going online booking and confirming my trip back. Staff during breakfast and dinner lacks the initiative to top up foods and drink before it runs out. Which would result in a long queue and too long of a waiting time. Apart from this eveyone there have been friendly and helps out in everyway. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

Dear Mr Muhammad, Thank you for taking the time to review us. It is heartening to see that you enjoyed your overall stay with us despite a few hiccups. Due to peak period, we definitely experienced a few of crunch moments. We sincerely apologize for these shortcomings. As for transport, our transport partner provider does not stand by a fleet at the resort. Most of our guests do arrange both way transfers to confirm availability in advance. Once again, your feedback is important to us and we will continue to improve our service. Look forward to your next visit to us.

This resort is not just only clean and beautiful, the staff working there were one of a kind that I have never seen anywhere else. Jesika (Guest Relation Officer) of the resort was super helpful and kind during our trip there. She had taken care of all our needs even went above our expectation! Kudos! Without her help my wedding proposal wouldn't be so successful! I can only describe this place as heaven on earth. The only downside of this trip was that there are some part of the resort that are under construction hence there's a little noise disturbance once in a while but once again Jesika managed to help us minimize it by shifting us to a room that are much further to the construction. Once again, thank you Taman Simalem Resort Team for making my stay there unforgettable!

Toller Ausblick
Das Hotel verfügt über einen wunderbaren Blick auf Tobasee und bietet viele Aktivitäten vor Ort (vor allem für Familien geeignet). Allerdings wird es VIEL gebaut, von einem einsamen Rückzug kann nicht die Rede sein. Für indonesische Verhältnisse ist das Hotel auch recht teuer (eine Nacht kostet 3-4 mal so viel wie ein vergleichbares Resort auf Samosir). Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und liebenswert, aber nicht besorders erfahren.

Pay for view but it's worth it!
We initially booked 2 nights for Waterfall Lodge Hotel - Superior. When we arrived and check-in, we found out that it was actually quite inconvenient to travel around Taman Simalem for activities (e.g: sunrise at amphitheatre or yoga). You need at least 30-45mins to get around by foot or 10-15mins by buggy. So, the front desk staff was very kind to recommend us to upgrade our room at Tongging Point. Thankfully, there were rooms for us. We decided to stay 1 night at Tongging Point Deluxe (with view of Lake Toba) and 1 night at Superior (garden view). The view was one of breath-taking beauty and the air was so fresh. We watched the sunset just outside our room and even spotted a rainbow! There was no air conditioning in the room as the hotel is situated on the mountains but it can be quite stuffy on a sunny day. We were pleasantly surprised to have different dinner menu for 2 nights. First night was BBQ selection and second night was steamboat. Sumptuous breakfast was mostly organic. There were many complimentary (free of charge) activities organized by the hotel. The staff were very friendly and called for buggy pick-up every time they see their guests at the lobby. Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much but please bear in mind this hotel is about 4-5hrs drive (subjected to traffic conditions) from Medan Airport.

Stunning location, great hotel
The resort is set on the edge of Lake Toba with stunning views of the lake and surrounding area. The hotel staff were exceptional, probably the best I have ever experienced and in particular Jesika and Kaban. They could not do more for us and we’re always checking we were ok. The only negatives to our stay were: 1. The resort had not fully opened and a number of the activities (including the golf and yoga) were not available, which we were unaware of when we booked the hotel. 2. There is a very limited selection of food across the resort particularly for a vegetarian. The staff did do all they could to try and provide meals to suit, however I do feel that this could be improved.

Nightly rates included dinner as well, which was a pleasant surprise! The views from the dining areas were amazing!
