Hey ho! What did you do during your Christmas - New Year holiday? 

For me, I get enough of traveling during Christmas-NY because usually it's super crowded and everywhere is full booked. Therefore we usually have a dine out during mother's day 22nd December. That day also happened to be my parent's wedding anniversary

One day I just blurted out where should we go, and my mom really wanted to visit Vietnam but I was like (-_-;) What we're going to do there?

"Eat pho.."

. . . 

The best option was to visit Bali however I had a sudden job to do in Jakarta, and besides my parents cant take too long leave during peak season as our business is at its peak as well. Therefore the short getaway should be Bandung which could be done in 3D2N

I had stayed in Sheraton Bandung Hotel before but I have never properly blogged about it as it's quite short stay, only 1 night. This time I managed to book 2 rooms for my yearly present to them. I heard that the rooms are all sold out as it's super popular, so I guess I am pretty lucky to secure some rooms!

The room price isn't that bad too considering its high peak. I mean, the room is spacious and luxurious. Well, if youre interested with that we're doing in Bandung for those 3 days 2 nights, curious about the foods and the hotel itself, and basically just want to look at good pic that might slow down your internet as it's TOO MANY.. Please read it! :D

DAY 1

And some sushi and sashimi

However unfortunately their japanese section hasn't lived up to my standard. But maybe it's because I always eat Japanese food at authentic restaurants :x

They serve amazing Kopyor ice cream that my dad got 5 scoops wtf lol

In an hour and half, my family ate maybe like 40 plates WTF LOL

My mom even said that the buffet was quite cheap considering it's a 5 stars hotel buffet. Price for Sunday Brunch is 198++ IDR per person and starts from 12 pm

I was also surprised when I saw the bill because I thought it would be more expensive lol; 

I mean, in Bali usually the buffet is around 350-500k at 5 stars hotel..

Horse Riding

Because we still have time before check in, I heard every sunday there's a free horse riding at the hotel so we walked around the hotel to find the pony lol

Just to take picture with it haha, the one who rides it for real was in fact my mom lol




I stayed at Tower Room which is SUPER SPACIOUS and comes with nice rounded sofa. I really like the sofa as normally our whole family stayed at one room first before sleeping. So, usually it's like 3 persons at the bed and one person on the couch, watching TV altogether ^3^


Mirrors everywhere, LOVE


The bathroom comes with a shower and a bath up which mom and I bathed together lol We were scrubbing each other's back too using all the essentials and tools provided. The amenities are complete and they provide many towels, specified for body, face, and hand. Amazing hospitality


They also have balcony area which we could see the gardens and trees all over. Away from Jakarta's pollution is the best thing ever



After we checked in and relaxed a bit, we went down to Samsara Lounge which is located near the main lobby to get a high tea



Some chocolates and churros to accompany our leisure day


As for me I got my Tuna salad!


Sipping some milkshake before going back to our room and chilling together
 Lucky the decoration and lights at Sheraton was lit up beautifully, giving class and style to the hotel ^.^

 Welcome bread


My brother wanted to be cool and drink some alcohol, so I orderd Pina Colada for him [right side] but he became red very fast and couldnt even finish lol Makanya jangan sok gaul ya dik HAHAHA
Although in fact it only has a lil bit of rum duh.

I ordered the left one which is Blue Lagoon, a mixture of vodka and idk what, it's quite strong and tastes good


Our dinner feast at Feast lol


We ordered a lot as we were starving :x But of course my forever favorite meals from Feast restaurant is their Lamb Shank and Tenderloin Steak


It comes with nice polenta! Dad loves it so much


The steak is well cooked and comes with mashed potatoes and veggies


My mom really wanted to get some warm soup so she ordered Oxtail Soup. The oxtail soup is only around 100k and she was like "do you know Cafe Betawi's Oxtail Soup is even 150k in Jakarta? Why Sheraton can provide such a steal?"

O.O


Well, I didnt know that, but I gotta admit that eating at Sheraton Bandung doesnt rip you off as the price is comparatively low than Jakarta's cafes


Mom also ordered this Nasi Oncom thing that comes with Kerupuk, Tempe, Ayam, and Lalap. However she thinks it's not that good, she prefers the Oxtail Soup anyhow


So here ends my first day in Sheraton, too many pictures so I'll just separate this into 2 parts XD
