Ok, Swissbel is the one at Harbour Bay.

(Friday,Saturday and Sunday only)

(their schedule is rather tricky, base on your question,answer can be a Yes and No)

Swiss Inn on below photo is the one nearer to BCS Mall.


I dont think Swiss Inn hotel have free direct 2-way shuttle service but they do allow guest to order online taxi. But the thing is Harbour Bay itself do not allow online taxis, unless you wish to walk out outside Harbour Bay to wait for one,hence i suggest you walk to Zest at Harbour Bay to grab their 35k taxi to get to your desire taxi or bargain with the official taxi stand (opposite KFC as pictured) for 30k rupiah.


Swiss-Belinn (Jodoh) is the not in Harbour Bay but is rather close by to Harbour Bay.


They do not have free shuttle service, but they do provide free drop off service from their hotel to Harbour Bay ferry terminal.


However, i am not sure if the below promotion whereby all of the hotels stated above is still on.


Note that all the 3 Swiss-whatever hotels in Batam's taxi fare isnt cheap,hehehe...talk to their respective hotel's receptionist/s for confirmation of their shuttle services.

Meaning to say, if i were to book my stay in Swiss Inn and wish to use their shuttle service, i go to Swiss-Bel Harbour Bay 1st and then reach Kepril Mall, followed by another trip from Kepril Mall to Swiss Inn,hehehe...since they do not provide direct transportation.

Hope you see the picture. A direct 35k rupiah taxi trip from Zest to Swiss Inn and then comes back to Harbour Bay free via Kepril mall when my trip ends during a Friday,Saturday or Sunday, if i am standing in your position.

Another option would be, 35k rupiah from Harbour Bay Zest to Swiss Inn, and return via Grab/GoCar at about 12k rupiah, since online taxi is allowed there.

Cheers!
