Hotel terbaik di Paropo I

2-night stay for 5 adults in 3 rooms Upside: (1) Views - Resort's location on a ridge overlooking Lake Toba means that more expensive room categories and public areas have unobstructed views (weather permitting) of the gorgeous lake. Worth it to pay up for lakeview rooms, but be aware that other guests can access the gardens outside the rooms on the lower floors, so curtains have to be closed for privacy. Also worth it to drive out 15 minutes (but still within resort grounds) to One Tree Hill for the views. (2) Staff - Shout out to Fitria, who was our point of contact for our reservation, and who arranged transport to/from the resort and for a day of sightseeing. She was proactive, reliable and pleasant to deal with, whether via email, WhatsApp or in person. (3) Amenities/Facilities - Despite the remote location, there was ample hot water and good water pressure in the showers. Wi-fi was decent in terms of speed and stability, both in rooms and in public areas. Note that rooms don't have fans, air-cons or heating given the cool climate year-round. Downside: (1) Unfinished - Despite the fact that the resort has been operating for several years, the upper floors of the main block are still under construction. Bizarre! This also means that there is no interior access to the restaurant and reception. Golf cart/truck/van shuttles are offered up and down the short, but steep, distance between the rooms and the reception/restaurant. This was particularly appreciated whenever it rained. However, we weren't disrupted by any renovation noise. (2) Remote location - Resort has extensive grounds, so it's a 20-30 minute drive out to places of interest (e.g. Sipiso-piso waterfall) or to town (e.g. Tongging) to eat in a restaurant. So, like us, you'll probably eat breakfast and dinner at the resort. Confirm if your rate includes breakfast and dinner. Breakfast was buffet-style, while dinner was buffet one night and steamboat/hotpot the other. None of the meals were particularly outstanding, but they did the job.
