“Abosulte nice”

Nino and his mother where so kind, they tried to help with everything. We had a great room and got a lot of suggestions on what to do and eat in the area. Also for al kind of things Nino can help you with it, scooter rent, guide for vulcano, taxi you name it he will help you.

Cooler and nicer air than in the center of Berastagi.

The owner Imo was a fabulous host, the bed was extremely comfortable

Such a lovely place to stay! The owners are super friendly and helpful, and the hot showers are amazing especially after a hike :)

Nino & Imo (& Pigu, cutest dog in whole of Sumatra) are incredibly friendly and extremely helpful. Nino organised all of my activities and needs during my stay and also helped me with my transportation to my next destination. It was also a lot of fun to hang out and spend time together! Highly recommended!

“Amazing..”

This is more than just a guesthouse. As long as you stay there, the mother and son will ensure to make you feel like family. We will miss them and we will come back one day ☺️!

The hosts were very nice and helpful. The room is as basic as it gets but at least the shower was nice and hot. The location is great and quiet area and they have gorgeous dog.

“A chilled out place”

I loved our stay at Karo Hill- the room was spacious, the bed comfy and the hot shower was a bonus. The location is perfect for accessing Sibayak, its walking distance to the fruit market and the town in general- if you don’t want to walk there is a local bus right out the front regularly. Nino was a great host- I tagged along with him to visit the local market to buy ingredients for dinner and he took my Dad to the barber for a haircut and a shave. We both enjoyed chatting with him and his Mum during our stay.

“Home away from home”

Nino and imo are the most friendly and welcoming persons. The rooms are big,clean, nice bed and hot shower. Location is perfect. They arrange tours ( sunrise on sibayak, daytrip around Berastagi,...) We went 2 days together with Nino and we had een amazing time. In the evening we sat together and talked and drinking tea. We came as friends and left as family. Thnx for everything !

We had an unforgettable stay with Imo and Nino. We had originally booked 2 nights and then we added 2 more because we felt at home. The accommodation was perfect and very clean (the bed is super comfortable!!). Nino organized our entire stay, he gave us advice and walked us everywhere, teaching us lots of things. We were able to go to the market with Imo and enjoy afternoons and evenings chatting and cooking together. It was our second family during these 4 days and we are extremely grateful for these good times spent with them. I recommend everyone to stay at Karo Hill and take the time to talk with them because they are wonderful people!! Thank you again for everything, we will not forget you, we can't wait to come back and share a good meal ;)♥️

“Local experience”

We had a great time staying with Nino and his mother Imo. Both were really kind and very interested in making our stay pleasant. Nino also showed us all the hidden gems in the area and cooked some really nice meals for us. The room was spacious, clean and had a comfortable bed. The view from upstairs is amazing. Thanks guys for the great time :)

Nino treated me and my partner like we were family. He organised the sunrise trek, our transfer and suggested places to eat and stop off when we explored berestagi on the moped. Can't say a bad word. The bed was comfy and the first hot shower in over a week which is always nice.

Very welcoming hosts, always ready to help. The location is far from the noisy city centre (this is a good thing). You get to breathe fresh air and enjoy a really calm environment. If you want to hike Mt Sibayak without a guide (yes, it is possible), you will be already closer to the trail. Easy to access by foot or bus (Kama buses from city centre).

If I could rate this place 20/10, I would! If you stay in Berastagi, you HAVE to go here! Nino and his mom took me in like family. They took us to the local market, cooked amazing food and are just so nice to hang out with and talk. The house and rooms have a very relaxed atmosphere and are perfectly clean an spacious. The views from the balcony are great! The location is ideal to hike up mount Sibayak. Nino talked us through the options of activities in the neighbourhood and arranged everything to make it happen as we wished. He even prepared me a lunchbox for my ride to lake Toba. This really felt like home away from home. Thank you so much!

“Amazing place”

Such a good time with Nino and his mother. They are so welcoming and very helpful (they help me to fix my broken motorbike). They are such good advices too. And the accommodation has everything you can expect. Don't be shy to stay few nights, you won't be disappointed to spend time at Karo hill !

Warm and personal homestay experience Nino and his mother run the homestay with a lot of care. Nino was extremely helpful – he showed us around the local market, took us to a nice café, cooked delicious meals (he used to be a chef for 12 years), and even prepared a lunchbox for our onward journey, all free of charge. He also gave us great travel tips and contacts for other cities. The place is simple but clean and has a very homey atmosphere. A great choice for anyone looking for a more personal stay in Berastagi.

Very friendly and helpful hosts!

fantastic host

“The best and affordable Bungalow stay in Karo Hill, Berastagi, Medan, Indonesia.”

I would say a "WOW" to the way the wonderful mother and an enthusiastic, vibrant, and ambitious "NINO" the son in welcoming & handling the guest in Karo Hill Bungalow. All my family members were very happy because both the mother and son were ready to help and guide you throughout the stay. Especially, Nino was very informative on any topics you discussed. Definitely will attempt to visit soon 👌👍🫶🤝

High quality service & good location to hike the vulcano or walk (about an hour) to the hotsprings. Nino and his mother were the best guests 👌 We recommend to have breakfast/lunch or dinner there. They offer delicious food & best passion fruit juice ever! Terimakasi!
