All the hotel staff from security, front office to cleaning service are all friendly, the room we booked had a view directly facing the Mahakam Bridge, every day we could see barges carrying coal, the breakfast menu is varied, eating with a beautiful view and there is a children's playground, fun games and a swimming pool that is not too big but quite satisfying. The strategic location is close to the mall, close to eateries and other busy centers. My first experience vacationing at Harris Hotel Samarinda and next time I want to go there again.
