Reviews for HARRIS Hotel Batam Center

Review 1:Wi-fi connections in the room were sporadic and intermittent.

Review 2:I liked the cleanliness and that the room was spacious. Staff accommodated my requests for extra bed and room with sea view.

Review 3:Nothing in particular

Review 4:Smooth check in process. Walking distance to the ferry terminal. Clean room. Excellent room service. Good English spoken staff and vast varieties of dishes in breakfast. Very near to Batam mega mall.

Review 5:Room cleanness could get better. Did not make me feel like I was at one of the best hotels in Batam. Even the shower floor has simply faulty design that a drain was on the highest point of the shower booth floor, leaving a big puddle and creating mess after shower. The AC was so loud and made it hard to fall asleep while leaving it on.

Review 6:Location and helpful staff

Review 7:Reception process is not proper, need more attention here. People queuing behind goes into a new line with new staff accepting check-in, proper way should still follow initial line and slowly from front move to the new line for fairness.

Review 8:Close to MegaMall and Batam Center Ferry Terminal (Walking distance)

Review 9:Wifi was quite slow ..it could be better if the wifi could get an upgrade especially during peak period and public holidays where most of the guest are using the wifi connection and we couldn't get a satisfying connection and the wifi signal keep disappearing when not in use even for like 5 mins after i lock my phone ..and the staff in Harris hotel batam centre did not tag our bags properly which lead to having me left behind one of my bags in the store room where the staff place the guest bags and luggages in ..disappointed in how they handle our bags and end up to not getting all of my item back with me ..they even doubt when my mum wanted to take one of our own plastic bag (which the staff did not tag with the same number with the rest of our bags and luggages) . I hope something can be done with the baggage system in the hotel or at least the staff could double check that they have given us the correct tag for the correct luggages so that such incident could be avoided. Could have a shuttle service to a few malls other than mega mall only.

Review 10:Staff was really friendly ..it was my third time staying at Harris hotel batam centre ..left a bag behind and they gladly helped to check for my item eventhough i was back in singapore ..great service from Ana from Harris hotel batam centre who took the trouble to look for my missing item and she get back to me as soon as she could ..thumbs up for the great service

Review 11:The pillow is too soft and thin. It feels like as if I am not sleeping on a pillow at all. The basin is a little dirty for my room. Morning breakfast buffet was a mess because there are too many guests but too little tables available and I need to scramble to get a seat.

Review 12:The location. Right beside the Batam Center Ferry Terminal and it is near to Nagoya Hill too. Staffs are polite and always putting on a smile.

Review 13:Harris Batam Center still maintains their standard in terms of all the factors you would consider for a comfortable hotel experience. Breakfast is a decent spread with more of their local cuisine. Love their tradition of having their staff dance performance in the midst of breakfast, it really enhance your mood for the moving.

Review 14:Checkin at 2pm quite slow. When being asked then given one by one. I am still pending for refund via bank for overcharging. As we cancel 2 extra beds.

Review 15:The rooms are spacious, bed is so comfortable and all rooms views amazing. Swimmers are provided with free flow towels and flip flop from hotel rooms. Provides toilet too. Able to provide 2 out of 7 rooms available before 2pm. Thumbs up!

Review 16:The service staff in the cafe may take eons to serve the food order. The Wi-Fi of the hotel sucks big time. The bandwidth was barely 1Mbps and we couldn't do a decent Skype video call.

Review 17:The hotel is very clean and the staff is very friendly, attentive and helpful. The location is so convenient. The food in the cafe is great too especially the ox-tail soup. The room nd bed is super cosy. Great for couples making love.

Review 18:Lots of food variety but the taste of the food is not that nice.

Review 19:Swimming pool area view.. Comfort bed and good clealiness. All staff are excellent always smile.

Review 20:Prefect location as it's just beside the ferry terminal and shopping mall. Staffs are friendly and helpful during checking in and out. Spacious neat room with comfortable bed.

Review 21:The bathroom has a slight moldy smell when we checked in - but we decided not to complain. The plastic kettle is a heat hazard - it did not auto-stop and kept boiling until the handle was too hot to touch.

Review 22:Marvelous seaview from the room's wide windows :) The hotel's citrusy theme colors was welcoming and refreshing..and the aromatherapy oil and burner was a lovely touch :) TV has all my favourite cable channels :)

Review 23:Requested for a connecting room as i was with my kids.But though i was assured by the staff whombi called before i checked in fews days before & the day before arrival that i will get the connecting rooms.. the staff at the counter told there was no connecting room available. But suprisingly... after we demanded & raised our voices which i felt was not neccessary, we got the connecting rooms. Weird. Not sure how they managed to get the rooms which there did not have initially. Another was i requested a transport from batam centre ferry terminal which they informed was not far so nobtransport was provided. I was with 2 very young kids. There could have given a transport as its very near. The traffic was very heavy & sometimes its difficult to just walk with 2 kids & luggage. Thirdly... the breakfast buffet was very bad. Not up to a 4 star hotel standard.

Review 24:The hotel was clean. Most of the staffs were polite.

Review 25:the pool was too small and was located near the dining area. was pretty awkward to swim with people eating so close by

Review 26:The breakfast was really delicious and the staff was generally very friendly.

Review 27:The price is a little to high .

Review 28:The room is comfy & the staff is friendly there ! The hotel is also convenient to the near by mall & ferry terminal .

Review 29:Can work on the quality of food and variety of the spread

Review 30:Excellent location - next to Batam Centre Ferry Terminal and opposite to Mega Mall . Clean and friendly hotel .

Review 31:so far so good

Review 32:Near to shopping mall..easy excess to swimming pool..good location...nice food for the room service..and awesome staff..thks for begin patient with us all...thank you again...

Review 33:The floor in my bathroom, when i take a bath the water so quick to go out to another floor of our bathroom.

Review 34:The food(breakfast), Location, staff and room are perfect

Review 35:There is no spa in hotel. Massage in the room is not really good idea as I have no privacy with other family members in the room. Breakfast spread more often not much left if you come down around 9 am. But it's ok as we make do with what you have then.

Review 36:The hotel location is convenient to nearby mall and batam Center for arrival and departure.

Review 37:Nothing?

Review 38:The cleaniness is excellent and staff is very friendly. Very near batam center ferry terminal and just across megamart. 3 days 2 night stay there and the 2nd day the staff help us to tidy our room and arrange really nicely. Was in shock when i saw how neat it is. This is my 2nd time there and definitely there will be more time.

Review 39:Not so about the hotel but the overall nearby surrounding. Makes whole Batam so run down.

Review 40:The location is near Batam Centre Ferry Terminal so ideal for short getaway and for those that worry about taking their taxi and got ripped off. Simple shopping, spa and Makan is nearby. Staff was kind to arrange a room earlier for us to check in so that we can move around earlier without the need to lug our bags along.

Review 41:Room is not good in sound block insulator and I don't like the transportation. No good taxi with Argo meter in Harris. I can not order another taxi which is reputable..when I'm going to barelang I order reputable taxi but I must walk outside the property. I really do not like it. If you just stay during weekend and do not have a plans to go outside the property..it is OK. If you want to go to the city center like Nagoya or you want to explore Batam .. Then you Better avoid this hotel just because of transportation. You will find unreasonable taxi prices with no Argo meter. Unless you have your own car.

Review 42:I like the location and surrounding....good food.

Review 43:I don't know whether it was the hot weather or the air-conditioner. Eventhough it was at the lowest temperature, it was not that cold. Probably a frequent maintenance check can be done.

Review 44:Basically the location is very convenient. Just next to the ferry terminal. I do not have to rush for my ferry. That is what i like the most because i don't like to be rush.

Review 45:We arrvd in the evening but the toilet hasnt ready all the towels...

Review 46:During check-in we wr received by very good helpful staff name Mr Danny who went to the extend to call n cancel a room for us with Booking.com Somewhere went wrg whn i did my own cancellation before our arrival. Besides that the hotel hs a good size clean room... room alsos overlooking sea & ferry terminal.. toilet cubicle equiped with water spray esp impt for Muslims.. restaurant at colorful huge lobby area

Review 47:no bad experience. Everything was a complete set.

Review 48:I am in need of another word that could describe a better expression than excellent. Your service, warm & friendly staffs, facilities, cleanliness, how organize everything was and all the foods provided especially the breakfast were beyond perfect. I really really really love Harris Batam Centre Hotel.

Review 49:The aircon wasn't cool in my room no 720. Was too late to ask for service due to tiredness to request to change of anthr room :(

Review 50:the bright colors of the hotel interior, the friendliness of staffs. Would like Harris hotel to email me if there is any promotion/discount on the room!

Review 51:I love tht the staff are always genuinely happy and cheerful! Always helpful. The bathroom is clean (very important!) and the rooms never disappoint in terms of cleanliness. Not a 5star luxury hotel but definitely a very comfortable, convenient and clean hotel. Perfect for a short no fuss getaway!

Review 52:Near to ferry terminal & good customer service for all staff. All vehicle will be subjected to security checks upon entry to hotel compound. Felt confident on the security level in the vicinity.

Review 53:Massage have to be arranged and done in the hotel room which causes some inconvenience especially those who are sharing room.

Review 54:1. Excellent service 2. Staff are friendly and helpful 3. Even though the Ferry Terminal is next to the Hotel yet hotel transportation can be arranged to bring us to the ferry terminal. It really saves us from carry the heavy luggages. This is superb.

Review 55:Too expensive for the given service...there are much better hotels for same budget...very basic room for 90sgd per night and not giving breakfast

Review 56:Location, cleanless

Review 57:I have waited for additional an hour and a half for my room to be ready. I wasn't given any alternative besides asking me to wait. No initiative updates and i have to keep asking for my room. The lady at the counter giving many excuses. I was with four other families with children. We waited at the lobby feeling so tired and hungry. When we suggested to see the maanager, then only he experdite our rooms. Every 10mins, we get our room each. The lady who serve me did not have our interest at heart. Was disappointed to learn that swimming pool is 1.2m by height whereas we have children ages from 3 -7yrs old wanting to play in the pool.

Review 58:The buffet breakfast spread is good. Most of the staffs are kind and willing to offer service.

Review 59:Facilities is not that much.

Review 60:Good location to access to the shopping mall and supermarket. Wifi is available and the staff is friendly. Room is simple and clean.

Review 61:Lack of facility such as lounge, karaoke, and waiting area lobby could have a big screen (TV) while waiting for available room to check in

Review 62:The hotel have a high vibrant of staff - very energetic and available to provide assistance when needed. Should compliment the housekeeping staff because the room is excellent and well maintained.

Review 63:Hotel room is rather dimly lighted. Aircon in the room cld be improved as it was not strong enough even though the temp.was set at 16deg. The hotel shd think of ways to get rid of the houseflies flying ard the guests and food during breakfast hours.

Review 64:Hotel is brightly coloured,looks spacious with simple distinct design.

Review 65:We have 3 people so we add on a extra bed. The additional bed is very uncomfortable. Due to I fall sick that night, I woke up like 10 times throughout the night. I cannot have a good rest. But when I shift to the main bed as my friend went out for breakfast, I can sleep much more better.

Review 66:Very convenient to mega mall or Nagoya.

Review 67:1/ Swimming pool was not cleaned. It has tiny bits in the water, looks like saw dust, or something of that effect. 2/ no bar, no entertainment 3/ the restaurant - the forefront of the entire hotel (the best public part of the hotel which is the sea view part) is occupied by a restaurant which seems to be serving only pizzas.The restaurant just seems not appetizing at all, and what a waste to have such a restaurant occupying the hotel main area, where no bar, limited menu.

Review 68:seaview, room size, nice hot and pressurized shower.

Review 69:The terrain from hotel to ferry terminal & walking to Megamall was unsafe. No proper walkways.

Review 70:Service is excellent. Staff are well trained. Great location.

Review 71:We order fries and nasi goreng late at night but it was too salty. Needs to be improve.

Review 72:Everything was good, enjoyed my stay with my fiance & friends.

Review 73:It would be nice if they had a kids' club here too as there wasn't much for kids to do apart from the pool.

Review 74:We loved the close proximity to the ferry terminal! Just walk across the car park and you will find the hotel. The shopping centre is a stone's throw from the hotel too. The pool was surprisingly cosy and relaxing! The kids enjoyed themselves.

Review 75:We requested high floor but gave us low floor. And check in should be 2pm but we check in 3pm plus due to not ready yet. We book three room and one room was far away for us and we expect two room will be connecting room.

Review 76:There seems to be a taxi syndicate in Batam that over charges on cab fares. Taxis do not run on meter and the fares are predetermined at the Hotel's taxi counter (no room for negotiation). For a location 5-7 mins away we were quoted IDR70,000 (S$7) and when we boarded the taxi, I witnessed the taxi driver paying the taxi counter staff some money (this was on top of parking fees he paid when he left the hotel). The next day we tried to book a taxi by phone instead (one of the companies that run by meter). When we called and the company and they were going to agree to pick us up outside the hotel vicinity the line was cut off. Subsequently when we tried to call through, once the person greeted with the taxi company's name the line kept getting cut off. We suspect the hotel operators were listening in and cut the line. Cannot help but feel ripped off!

Review 77:The location is alright if you don't plan to travel much and content with the surrounding shops/food places. Right next to the Batam Center Ferry Terminal and opposite a decent mall. Good for 2D1N but not for anything longer.

Review 78:The food is gd but must get rid of the house flies. Other than that it's ok

Review 79:The service of ur staff is excellent . All of them are so smiley, polite and Spontenruoud Will recommend others to stay in this hotel

Review 80:Hotel price too stiff

Review 81:Swimming pool should b at top floor How to swim when there a restaurant beside ? How to go up to the lift wearing swim attires especially women.?

Review 82:There's no swimming pool for children. My 3 year old son wanted to go swimming but was dissapointed when he found out that there is no children's pool.

Review 83:All is good!

Review 84:Only 1 lift serviceable. WiFi strength weak especially in the room,connection lost very frequently can be very annoying B'fast spreadcould be better. There's no cereal , milk or creamer available.

Review 85:Location excellent near to ferry terminal and megamall. Service on thewhole acceptable

Review 86:This is second time we stayed in this hotel.Requested a extra bed n we were hoping the roll away bed is firm enough to sleep.True enough it was as firm as the original beds in the room. All of us given a bolster and two pillows. Very comfortable. Keep it up Harris!

Review 87:The pool could be better maintained, the water was murky most of the time and visibility in the water was low, we couldn't see where we were swimming. Many a times, the sewage smell drifted in from the drain and ruined the swimming experience.

Review 88:The staff were extremely friendly, helpful and could speak English well. They always came forward to help the moment they sensed that we had trouble without us approaching them. Loved the sea view that we had gotten for our room, it made the trip so relaxing. The location was extremely convenient, right next to the Batam City Centre Terminal and right opposite the Mega Mall.

Review 89:The room has this mouldy smell. I think it came from the carpet. We felt slightly better after using the oil essence available in the room.

Review 90:The hotel is located just beside the Batam Center Ferry Terminal.

Review 91:I was provided with a smelly tower. Also only 1 slipper and tooth brush . When ask the counter staff , they said only provide two pairs upon requested. I have stay with so many hotels and this is the first time I received this replied by a counter staff . This is stupid excuse .

Review 92:Very noisy in reception restaurant area due to badly behaved children .Staff did not talk to parents about behaviour Rooms Very basic (2 star...?) Room rate is high for quality provided Website said 'includes breakfast' but evidently did not and had to pay 140,000 x2 extra Some breakfast staff useless. Others good Paint odour in corridors Lifts very slow (2 only) !!!?

Review 93:Reception staff excellent Some restaurant staff excellent Proximity to mall excellent

Review 94:breakfast range are very limited, swimming pool area very small, lift are very slow and there are only two lift, room's door not sensitive, can't find any rubbish bin outside hotel staying room area

Review 95:Location near to the jetty

Review 96:Everything went well as expected.

Review 97:My father was with me for my short business trip to Batam. He felt very safe and was never refused help or a smile from any of the staff at the hotel. We enjoyed our stay truly.

Review 98:The housekeeping staff came real late the 2nd day to make up the room. We were out and came back at about 4pm and the room was still not cleaned.

Review 99:The location is real convenient. It's just 5 mins walk from batam centre ferry terminal. The mega mall opp the hotel is pretty cool too.

Review 100:i request for high floor. got 2nd floor. we reach at 2pm indonesia timing and waited for 1 hr for our room to be ready. didnt expect that we got a lower floor on the room when we requested for high floor, didnt complain much kept us waited for an hour.

Review 101:i love the breakfast. it was nice

Review 102:The pool is too small and too close to the restaurant for comfort.

Review 103:Its very close to a very good mall and the ferry terminal. It is very easy to catch a cab and their prices are very reasonable.

Review 104:Low floor, smoking room, quilt cover with blood stains, mini bar empty and not cold, facial tissue not replenish.

Review 105:The location that is nearer shopping mall and ferry terminal

Review 106:Long wait to use the lift during check out time . Lift bypass 3rd floor due to guests coming down from top floors and lift always full . Had to use the exit staircase to go down . The other lift was not working .

Review 107:Friendly staff and great breakfast !

Review 108:1 lift was not working and was quite long to wait for the lift.

Review 109:First time at batam and my friend recommended me Harris hotel. it was pleasant, staff are nice and helpful.

Review 110:We have asked for a queen bed but was given a two single bed. Quite inconvenient as we got 2 young children sleeping in the room.

Review 111:The staff was super nice. The location of the hotel was fantastic as the hotel was facing the sea and walking distance to the ferry terminal and the shopping mall. Very convenient cos it saves alot on money transport.

Review 112:Aircon in my room keep going off n on on its own. Still the same even after the staff come and check. It would have been perfect without the aircon problem

Review 113:The room is big n clean.. Located just beside the ferry terminal n opposite the mega mall is a plus. Stuff was super friendly.

Review 114:Wi-Fi connection could be better in the room but I was able to get a good connection at the lounge area.

Review 115:The Batam Centre ferry terminal is right next to the hotel and the Mega Mall is just across the street! Room is clean and comfy though it seems they are renovating some areas.

Review 116:The person next door was snoring so loudly I could hear them through the asking doors of the room. Some slightly better insulation would probably combat this easily. Otherwise a great hotel.

Review 117:After I made reservation, another booking form came up. I thought that first booking was not successful, so I submitted, resulting in double booking!

Review 118:Good staff service. Special thanks to manager Aditaya (sp). ..

Review 119:The toilet's cleanliness, can be improved! :D

Review 120:Friendly staff, fast check in and loving the hotel as its accessible to everywhere I want to go...Megamall is just a step away! I can access to my spa session and buying stuffs from the Hypermart! :D

Review 121:Well,I only dislike the Wi-Fi. everytime u disconnect u need to re-login which is abit mafan.

Review 122:Love the rooms.the view of sea.everything is clean and neat.

Review 123:Counter Staff-I asked for my bill at 10am, informing them that I will only leave the room at 12. I did said that we had a packet of snack. Bill given to me without the snack price included. At 12 before leaving, personally left the automated card back to them and they told me that I have not paid for the snack. I told them is ok since I am getting the cookies, I will pack for the snack . Again here the bill given to me without the snack price.I asked the Cookies "girl' she told me it's ok. I walked out from the hotel, tis guy came running after me for the snack price. It's so embarassing with people looking around. Find out, what goes wrong here. I will never come back again or recommended tis hotel to my relatives or friends. When u ask for something, they never get back to u. U all should not charged phone call within your area.

Review 124:Upon checking in, which should be 2pm. I reached at 3.30pm. The hotel staff ask to come back 30mins later which is at 4pm. I dont see why is it the hotel cant provide me with proper checking in. Check in at 4pm should at least have the benefit of late check out but no. when being ask about late check out she only give us till 12.30 which is only 30mins late when i check in at 4pm. During checking in, the staff charged my card for 2nights when its clearly stated that i will be there for only 1night. 2weeks before going i emailed the hotel personally and even through this booking.com to ask the hotel to do special decorations as guest is celebrating wedding anniversary but to no response.

Review 125:The comfort of the in room and the bed.

Review 126:I scalded myself in the shower! Water so hot to the skin( I used to have hot shower) This temperature was terrible n technical came n left but temp remain as bad. I had to make use of water at basin for quick rinse n made a mess!

Review 127:Next to ferry terminal

Review 128:One elevator is broken down and the other is very slow. The bathroom looks a bit shabby with cracks on the tiles and water marks on the ceiling. But all else was pretty good.

Review 129:Breakfast buffet was fresh and interesting. Pool was good - location good and staff friendly. The rooms are nothing spectacular but they are clean and comfortable.

Review 130:we had troubles with mosquitoes. Called the room service staffs told them about it and they told us to wait for their call. We waited for nothing. She didn't call us back and nothing is done for the mosquitoes.

Review 131:the staffs although mostly are all new ones they're still as friendly and helpful as ever.

Review 132:It's a pity they don't sell the oil fragrant for the room. Not enough sun bed at the swimming pool area. The flooring of the shower area and bath room was at the same level, thus, once finished showering the bathroom is flooded with water. Very messy for the next person to step into the bath room. No shuttle bus service to Nagoya Mall.

Review 133:Great Location and love the oil aroma for room !!!

Review 134:I had last min requested for sea view, bt was told tat hotel fully booked. After came back frm shopping, checked-in n was so delighted tat the staff manage to get us the seaview n connecting room too. Totally enjoyed stayin there, even 4x i was there nothing bored me.

Review 135:These are pretty minor inconveniences. Aircon was a bit on the loud side. No night light. Toilet handspray was dripping water albeit very slowly. There were mosquitos in the room. Bathroom looked a bit dated.

Review 136:Location is right next to Batam Ctr ferry terminal, and opposite Megamall. Beds and pillows were comfortable. 3 bottles of complimentary mineral water. Free shuttle to ferry terminal (although it's right next door, road is pretty bumpy and uneven, not ideal for strollers) After we requested for extra blanket, front desk called to confirm if it had been sent over.

Review 137:The air-con was making a lot of noises at night this sleep was disturbed. We requested a late checkout at 1 pm but was only given up to 12.30pm.

Review 138:Bed sheets are clean and comfortable. Staff are mostly friendly

Review 139:I had stayed twice in rooms with 02 series like 402 602. The air con in those 2 rooms is not cold. Already asked to check but still the same. Couldn't sleep well at nite.

Review 140:Cleanlines n location of the hotel near to ferry terminal n shopping mall.
