Batam Island, Indonesia Hotel Rooms at the Independent

Very nice view and quiet getaway! Will definately come back again.

The hotel granted my request for a seaview room...so sweet.

Great experience with the staff. They are polite and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel for 3 nights. From the moment we arrived, nothing was too much trouble. The porters were great, the breakfast staff great, as well as cleaners and reception staff. Breakfast consisted of a large variety of foods (both Western and Asian). Room service was cheap and tasty. The swimming pool was lovely and quiet. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. My only complaint is that we requested a double bed and instead got 2 single beds pushed together- which meant that if you rolled into the middle, the beds separated and you fell in between them. Other than that though, a great stay!

nice hotel close to the nagoya hill，walking distance，is very good location，and the hotel staff are friendly

The Crown Vista is located about 20 minutes from the Batam Centre. The average fare from the harbor front is 50,000 rupiah. The staff were very professional and tried to engage in English whenever possible. The room was huge, you could have held a conference in it and it also had a wonderful balcony area. The room amenities were great and because of the size and all the additional appointments, you could just sit and relax. My wife loved the spas and was effusive in her praise of the staff who looked after her. The Scenery Restaurant provided a variety of food, from the buffet breakfast which was varied and delicious to a well rounded menu for the rest of the day. I ate predominantly Indonesian fare and it was marvelous. My wife tried a variety of dishes and in almost every case I ended up sharing my meal with her. The food was good, but not really what she wanted. The flavors and aromas arsing from the food was mouth watering. I cannot state enough the wonderful way in which the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Overall nice hotel to stay if you don't do the QC job at the hotel .., AC working well, clean bed nd towels , but the floor Matt is quite old .., not bugs nd flies inside .., but a bit costly compare tk with other hotels .,

The check in was smooth, the hotel staff was really kind and very nice to customers. When we checked in the room the room was really nice and very clean. It was quite bigger than we expected. The bathroom was also very clean.The aircon wasn't working very well, but as soon as i called them, the service guy was in the room with in 2 mins and fixed the issue. Loved the service. Easy to get there and easy to get Taxi anytime any where. Near by have quite a lot of food stalls and restaurants.All rooms have a fridge and pre-loaded with drinks and alcohol.They also provide in room massage or could directly go the the second floor for a massage. The breakfast buffet was by far the best ones I've had in a hotel. In room service was also very nice. I would love to book this hotel again on my next trip. Thanks a lot.
