Re: Batam, Bintan, Balai Field reports
Old Chinatown could be the Jalan Pelantar II area. One nearby on this road is Hotel Laut Jaya. But nearer to the jetty, 3-5 min walk is Hotel Melia. This was formerly Hotel Sanno. I used to stay there. Don't know how near it is from Hotel Melia to old Chinatown. Hotel Melia is near Bintan Indah Mall. A lot of Chinese kopitiam on the street. Hotel Melia was better than Hotel Laut Jaya. But the last time I was in Tj Pinang was in 2004. Sorry its not up to date. Cheers
