Do you guys reckon a day trip to Bandung from Jakarta? Or is it better to spend a night there?

To those who want a good hotel and don't mind splurging, i highly recommend Hotel Mulia Senayan.

I stayed there for a month when i was on a business trip and i must say it's really good. It's near to the business district area and shopping malls (Plaza Senayan & Senayan City). They have Italian, Chinese, Japanese restaurants and the food are great. And also a disco on the 2nd floor - liquors are kinda overpriced though, IDR1.5mil for a Black Label. Service is excellent (but not the reservation counter) - laundry was never late, good job in housekeeping, they greet you by addressing your surname when they see you at the corridor, they pay attention to very small details and i was pretty amazed.

My room rate was IDR1.2mil including GST per night.

Yup it's a 5-star hotel. That's why i said if you don't mind splurging.
