Stayed at Novotel Coralia Bogor - Jakarta, Indonesia.

Very interesting destination because there are many cultural events (do not miss the Ramayana Ballet at Prambanan !), incredible monuments (Borobudur, Prambanan), lots of art galleries and shops where you can find some very good batiks.

Stayed at Mandarin Oriental Jakarta - Jakarta, Indonesia.

This is my 6th visit and Jakarta is pleasantly calm this time, maybe it's due to her birthday celebrations.
I just heard that they had a bomb blast last weekend, one day after I left.

Stayed at Puri Bambu Hotel - Bali, Indonesia.
|
The hotel is located near a fishing village and in a residential area; it is therefore isolated from traffic and is quiet compared to what we saw elsewhere. Because it is isolated, we used the hotel shuttle to the tourist town of Kuta, 20 minutes away, which departs daily at 1000, 1300 and 1500; from there it is possible to take various types of transportation elsewhere. Because we were unfamiliar with the transportation system, we preferred to book group and individual tours to the numerous attractions through the hotel.
Jimbaran Beach is located some 400 meters away; there are some 80 eating establishments (warungs) specializing in fresh barbecued fish there. We enjoyed the walks along the beach, which is busy during the day with the small fishing boats; however, the rainy season brought extensive debris back on the beach, so there was little incentive to swim there at this time of year.
