The mall connected to this hotel is pretty huge. There are two main buildings. Building 2 is the newest addition, and has a nice aquarium, on the B1 level. The weekend is pretty busy, and costs 175k IDR for everyone to enter on the weekend, 150k weekdays. It’s pretty wheelchair accessible. A couple of areas have raised platforms, or steps leading down to some rows of seating. They have a somewhat steep ramp down in a couple of parts, but was able to take it slow in my electric wheelchair.

They have a huge tank that forms a tunnel, and 5-6 displays on the lowest level.

If not horribly crowded, it should take 60-90 minutes to go through it, if you don’t attend any feedings. The otters are fed at 11am or so. Most others are between 2:30-5:00 pm.

There are tons of food places here. On the B1 level, there’s even an A&W and Subway, for those who crave such things. Remember most of Indonesia doesn't serve pork here. I found a nice French Style bakery, with nice Portuguese tarts, and garlic cheese bread.

Pork freezer

Nice fruits

They have a nice medium sized, very modern supermarket, Foodhall. Some decent sales, 3 cans of Pringles for $3. They even have a pork freezer, with ham and other piggy items. Their normal meat case has some nice looking beef and chicken.
