Marriott International Inc announced the opening of Batam Marriott Hotel Harbour Bay on Batam island, the largest island in Indonesia’s Riau archipelago province and a favorite getaway destination for visitors from nearby Singapore. The new hotel is located on the island’s laid-back waterfront hub of Harbour Bay, near its Ferry Terminal, where a pleasant 40-minute high-speed ferry ride whisks both leisure and business travelers to and from Singapore, 32 kilometers away across the Singapore Strait. With its sophisticated spaces and inspired hospitality, the new Batam Marriott Harbour Bay promises to reinvent visitors’ experience of the island.
Batam is popular with visitors for its international golf courses, exhilarating water sports adventures, wellness spas, tasty fresh seafood, duty-free shopping and attractions which showcase Indonesia’s culture and history. One of the largest Buddhist temples in Southeast Asia is located in the island’s Nagoya City Center and welcomes thousands of worshippers each day. Other attractions include Barelang Bridge, which stretches across three small islands in the archipelago and offers breathtaking bird’s-eye views of the surrounding ocean during the two-kilometer drive across the bridge. Batam is also home to many beautiful unspoilt beaches such as the white sandy Nongsa Beach, from where the glittering lights of Singapore’s skyscrapers can be seen on the horizon at night.
The hotel offers a total of 216 guestrooms and suites, appointed with plush bedding, spacious work desks, 55″ LED TVs, high speed internet, bathrooms with rainfall showers and customized amenities that ensure a comfortable and productive stay. Guests can also upgrade to M Club-level rooms to enjoy additional privileges, including exclusive lounge access.
