The location is in Kesawan, opposite is the famous tip top restaurant and just 50m away is the attraction Tjong A Fie Mansion. Walk a further bit down and you are at Merdeka Walk, the counterpoint is a bridge away. Roads are always dusty here, so take care of yourself. Behind the hotel is the fish market, selling all kind of stuffs. There are 3 chinese coffeeshops too and they serve very nice food, albeit a bit high price for Medan's standard
