Holiday Inn is a good choice, but far from town like Nongsa area.

Holiday Inn Batam is like Novotel standard in Singapore. But bigger floor area.

Mercure in Batam now is only like Strand Hotel standard in Singapore. Abite bigger area. But if you intend to stay there, I suggest you book w/o b/f. It taste horrible.

4pax + 1 brudder bring you guys joint hunting will have transportation problem: -
(1) That brudder is driving, or
(2) Book mini-van ... your cewek booking price will go up cos the driver will take a commission from ayam farm
(3) Walk
Bruturd,what you meant by w/o/b/f ?

So beside mecure,what place would you suggest?I would like to have hotel with in room safebox,scare of ceweks stealing :x

Hmm..i don't really mind mini van if we can all sit comfortable together,don't want the bruturd that bring us around to suffer also but surely wouldn't mind walking if it's within walking distance like say 5-10mins.
