Brunei Darussalam - the abode of peace

Advantages: a good place to visit
Disadvantages: not a great deal of attractions

Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei Darussalam is a very interesting place to visit. Most people arrive by air and the well appointed airport is only 15 minutes from the city. Most hotels will provide a transfer, with exception of the only true budget option which is the local youth hostel. Apart from that you can expect to pay in excess of 25 pounds per night, with prices rising to hundred of pounds for the empire resort. There asre buses ...
...budget end of things in Bandar and in my opion the best option is the Jubilee hotel - relatively cheap at 26 pounds but well appointed with various facilites and in a good location. Of course if you fancy splaching out there are a plethora of places to do so, especially the Empire esort, created by the Sultans brother.

Eating in Bandar is no problem either as there are plenty of informal hawaker places or if you fancy something a little ... more

Strange place...

Advantages: Regalia Museum, cheap food
Disadvantages: Nowhere to stay, bad public transport

There are a few strange things about arriving in Bandar. The first is that there are very few buses, and getting in to the town from the airport can be quite trying, as taxis are very expensive indeed. The second is that the only cheap place to stay is a youth hostel, huge and with a sports centre attached, which you can't reserve beds in and which may turn you away fro no reason. However, if you do manage to get let in, it only costs ten dollars ...
...that long, you must be mad. In the town there are about three things to see. The main mosque, obviously, the water village, and the royal regalia museum. This last is well worth it - the opulence is incredible. You have to work quite hard to not be bored in Brunei- but it is possible! ...

Brunei's Dry Capital

Advantages: clean
Disadvantages: no form of entertainment, nothing to do there

Bandar Seri begawan in Brunei Darusslam is every bit as interesting as watching paint dry. If you are looking for excitement and have insomnia do not even go anywhere near it. Nothing happens in Bandar Seri begawan after 9.00pm. Everyone is at home watching satellite television, which leaves you, the visitor, wondering what to do besides walk around the deserted streets. Don't expect any pubs, clubs or entertainment outlets as Brunei is a dry country ...
...park. Jerudong park is akin to Disneyland but with the exception that all the rides are FREE. Yup, I kid you not. So, I guess if there is one reason to go to Bandar Seri Begawan then Jerudong is it. All in all, it is like one big retirement village. ...

Not Too Bad At All

Advantages: Cheap. In flight crew are helpful. Seating is OK
Disadvantages: No alcoholic drinks are served. Hub airport is boring

Royal Brunei Airlines-known as RBA in the South East Asian region-has grown considerably since its formation back in 1974,when it commenced operations with two Boeing 737-200 aircraft. Today from its hub in Bandar Seri Begawan, (BSB)Brunei's flag carrier flies to regional destinations such as Kuala Lumpur,Kuching,Kota Kinabalu,Singapore, Bangkok, Balikpapan, Jakarta, Bali,Ho Chi Minh City, and Manila while among international destinations served by RBA are Dubai,London,Frankfurt, Zurich,Perth, Brisbane and Calcutta. Its home airport at Bandar Seri Begawan is modern enough and has a few facilities including a prayer room,an over priced restaurant, several duty free shops, telephone and telex services,and a viewing gallery. It is not the most exciting spot on earth to have to while away a couple of hours in.I have had to use this ...

Review of Royal Brunei Airlines

Best budget hotel in Brunei

Advantages: cheap, excellent services, good location
Disadvantages: Youth hostel is cheaper

This hotel is, in my opinion the best budget traveller hotel in brunei. During my visit to Bandar Seri Begawan i spent 4 nights there and 1 night in the local youth hostel. The adavantages of the is hotel are numerous: 1. At 70 Brunei Dollars or about 26 quid its far less expensive than other hotels in the city and i think is pretty good value for money. 2. The services provided are plentiful including: concierge, internet cafe, restaurant (which is pretty good) amongst several other cafes, a few boutiques, a mini-mart and finally a tours desk. 3. The staff are extremely helpful and welcoming - they will advise on anything and make you really feel at home. 4. Rooms are well appointed with fridge (more useful than you may think), tv, good bathrooms and beds. 5. The location on jalan kiannegh is excellent - literally a two ...

Review of Jubilee Hotel, Bandar Seri Begawan

There's real gold on that thar dome

Advantages: Visually satisfying
Disadvantages: none

You cannot miss the Omar Ali Saifuddin Mosque in the centre of Brunei's capital, Bandar Seri Begawan. It is a beautiful white building with a wonderful golden real goldleaf dome. I think this is the nicest mosque I have seen. I was told that the architect was British - I'm not sure if this is true, but maybe he somehow made it more visually accessible to a British eye. It was built in 1958, and named after the present Sultan's father. It is reported to have cost US$5 million at that time. It's set in grounds with an artificial lagoon complete with concrete boat. You cannot go on this but you can walk round the grounds. It is acceptible for visitors to go inside at certain times - visiting is closed or limited on Thursdays and Fridays and you'd need to check out other times - you can't go in during prayer times. All this is if you ...
