Factory outlets in Bandung

October 21st, 2007 · 82 Comments

Bandung in Indonesia is just across Straits of Malacca and its so easily accessible nowadays with Airasia. I was there earlier this year to do what best in Bandung . Bandung was really a shopping paradise with so many factory outlets to let you shop till you drop.

The clothes sold in these factory outlets are seasonal. What is sold in these outlets depends on the supply from their distributors.

Among brands that you can find in Bandung are Louis Vuitton, Jean Paul Gaultier, Levis, Dockers, Hugo Boss, Giorgio Armani, Emporio Armani, Crocodile, Calvin Klein, etc, etc, etc

Besides shopping, the food in Bandung was excellent. I would highly recommend ‘Kampung Daun’, ‘Dapurku’ and ‘The Valley’

Here is my travel itinerary for my Bandung trip.

Day 01 : Arrive at Bandung : 9:00AM
- Check-in Hotel by 10.30am
- Shopping to factory outlet “Heritage”
- Lunch at sundanese restaurant “Dapurku”
- Shopping to “Bandung Super Mall”, visit Polo boutique & Batik boutique in the mall
- Dinner at restaurant on top of the hill “The Valley”
- Back to hotel

Day 02 :
- Visit factory outlet “Rumah Mode”
- Go to “Cihampelas Walk” and also outside the shops selling jeans
- Lunch at restaurant “Glossis” in Cihampelas
- Visit the shopping center “Istana Plaza”
- Dinner at “Kampung daun”
- Back to hotel

Day 03 :
- Visit active volcano “Tangkuban Perahu” and hotspring around the area
- Continue to shop at many factory Outlets along Jalan Dago
- You can also have lunch in many Sundanese restaurants, just ask the driver.
- Visit the mall “Paris de Java” and have dinner there
- Back to hotel

Day 03 : Flight back to Kuala Lumpur.

    When are you going? Me wanna go also!

  • 3 leslie // Oct 26, 2007 at 11:44 pm

    I went in April 2007. Was too lazy to post about this trip. It’s worth going if you can get cheap Airasia tickets. But, beware of fakes.

  • 4 Ovilia // Nov 20, 2007 at 3:52 pm

    New Factory Outlet in Bandung. The name is OSSO boutique outlet at Riau 34, Bandung.

    hello there,,, i am going to Bandung in March, 2008
    I am interested to do some outlet shopping too.
    Mainly interested in Abercrombie & Fitch, Tommy Hilfiger and Ralph Lauren.
    Can you recommend outlets-stores selling these ???
    THANKS :) bye

    Leslie: Most of the outlets sell the same stuff but they depend on the shipment too. I just came back from Bandung and this time around, there were lots of Dockers. For guys, I would recommend TheMen outlet at Jalan Riau. Please check out Rumah Mode and Heritage too

  • 6 Fitness test at Tangkuban Perahu // Jan 10, 2008 at 6:23 pm

    [...] was great. In fact, better compared to my previous trip. There were more branded goods to buy. Some of my favorite brands were there like Dockers, Calvin [...]

    Leslie: If you visit shops in Jalan Dago and Jalan Riau, you would have covered all of Bandung. You can visit outlets like Rumah Mode, Heritage, TheMen, Oasis and outlets around these shops. You can visit here and here for more details.

  • 11 sue // Feb 2, 2008 at 12:25 am

    Can u recommend hotels located within the shopping area?

    Leslie: Bandung shopping area is not big. Car rental with a driver for a day is very cheap. Moving around is very easy. For hotels, I have stayed at Sukajadi which is opposite of Paris Van Java. I would rate it like a 2-star hotel. This hotel is part of Airasia tour package. I prefer Malya Hotel which I stayed in December. You can read more about this hotel in my other blog post. Enjoy shopping :)

  • 12 Vince // Feb 4, 2008 at 4:56 am

    Yo! Mas could be on the same flight as mine. I’ll be spending my CNY in a foreign land. Leaving on 6/02, mid morning flight.
    Heard ain’t got night life, would be boring then. Coz, i sleep in the day, wakes up at dawn…like the Count, eh.
    Holiday,.. what!

    Leslie : Have fun in Bandung :)

  • 13 Vince // Feb 4, 2008 at 4:59 am

    All halal restaurants! What leh… ain’t no authentic Chinese restaurants. Thot there’s a China town ere, well maybe in 1920’s.

    Leslie: Maybe there are some but why don;t you try out the local food. They are delicious :)

  • 14 FARA // Feb 4, 2008 at 11:31 pm

    hey there..ur blog definitely help me a lot in planning my trip to Bandung this April’08. i’m soo thrill about having some outlet shopping and visiting Mt. Tangkuban Perahu. u mentioned about staying in Malya Hotel. how much is the rate per nite?

    Leslie: Hotel Malya cost about RM250++ per night. I stayed there for 3 nights. It provides daily complimentary breakfast and tea A complimentary dinner is provided too. For the tea, you hardly have the chance to try since you will be so busy shopping.

  • 16 Vince // Feb 6, 2008 at 3:45 am

    Sorry it’s not dawn, it’s dusk. That’s my waking time during hols. I don’t mind Sundanese foods if they taste like the one at KLCC. First time to Indonesia, no flood like the one at Jakarta, I hope.
    Will post after my trip. My fight been rescheduled to afternoon. Shopping will not been on top of my list, maybe some souvenirs. Wonder RM3000 equiv is sufficient for 6D/5N. Don’t know the cost of flowers there..

  • 17 MeK // Feb 12, 2008 at 4:43 pm

    Haluu there… Me goin to Bandung end March 08.. Can’t wait to shop shop shop n shop.. Thinking of staying in Arion Swiss Belhotel.. is far from the factory outlets and other shopping places?

    Leslie: Bandung is a small city. You will probably leave the hotel for the whole day for shopping. The factory outlets are not far away, depending on the traffic.

  • 18 Datin // Feb 16, 2008 at 9:55 pm

    going to bandung in mei 2008. Looking for kayu jati funiture outlet. Can you recommend the best place to go

  • 19 Vince // Feb 17, 2008 at 8:07 am

    Back on Friday (15/02). Thot of spending 6 days, end up 10 days. Shoppings were not my priorities though. Batiks print that my late grandpa would not even wear. Pretty dark n really doesn’t fit the locals there as most r dark skinned (kopi susu). Kinda disappointed of my search, but now I know where to look. Jln Riau for shoppings, Jln Braga 4 pubs hopping. N my ideal places 4 clubbings were Emporiom Hotel, Amnesia n Embassy. But nothing beats Bangkok. Should drop by in Jakarta 4 a couple of days… Alas, next time. Spend twice my budget, I stayed on Jl Asia-Afrika. 2 of the foreign banks located on this business ctr street 4 the 24hrs ATMs. Weather, what la my room temp was much cooler than outdoor, then again I never got out when the sun was up. Local food nothing to shout abt, tried most recommended restnts. The Sudannese restnt in Suria KLCC beats them all. Perhaps I should have tried 50 local restnts, then I’ll be a critic. Tony Roma’s, tastes the same as in KL. For u guys try the outlets in BKK n S’pore. Items won’t find in KL n Bandung. Bertawis food, Padang n Sudanese food mainly suit locals’ palate, very salty. Drinks r very sweet, the coke comes in 195ml btls, collectibles 4 the cokes’ fans. Cokes..! Drink plenty of fluids although most of the days r cloudy but humid. Hotels’ TV beats most 5 stars hotel everywhere in the region, lotsa channels. No censors, but blurrings even wounds. Perhaps, they try 2 cut down violence?? Were there, a stampede killed 11 ppl, due 2 removals of some squatters’ area. Indonesians r football fanatics, the final match of the local league was shifted 2 Bandung, a few days b’4 the match was supposed to play in front of no spectators ( first in history of Indonesian leagues) 2 curb ruckus. Even then, there were a few demo after the results were released. Watched the Manchesters’ derby in a pub. Language wise, BI easy 2 learn if u know BM but kinda different, dong. Taxi fares, bargain first b’4 getting on one, insists on meter. Angkutan Kota, 4 the informed n adventurous. The drivers practise price differentials, locals n foreigners. Wish u guys a nice trip.

  • 20 sally // Feb 19, 2008 at 12:51 pm

    hi leslie, we plan to bandung on jun08 (4adult + 3kids), stay in Sukajadi hotel. Wonder about food cleanliness + estimation price. What type of transport to all factory outlet & also price? pls advise. TQ

    Leslie : The price of a van & driver for 12+ hours day is about Rm100 excluding petrol, parking and meals for driver. Sukajadi Hotel is a partner for Airasia. Opposite Sukajadi is Paris Van Java shopping mall. You can even find a few smaller factory outlets around the hotel. Restaurants are clean. You can read here and here for more info.

  • 31 kay n anuar // Mar 16, 2008 at 1:34 am

    we have been there last january. it is a very nice place if you want to shoppe. i call it marvellous with all branded items especially in rumah mode. u can get banana rep dress as low as rm35. along jalan dago there are a few FO plus 1 bag centre. u can find tod’s, chloe, miu miu etc but i’m not sure wheter it is ori or not. have fun for those shopping mania…. thinking of going again this may..

  • 32 nuhr // Mar 16, 2008 at 1:52 pm

    hi..i went to bandung last january 08 and already bought airasia tickets for our 2nd trip there in june 08. the best place to shop are pasar baru, and the FOs along jalan dago and riau e.g rumah mode, cascade, heritage and rumah tas. but one tip to share is if u want to buy the real branded shirt/cloths just check the label..if the label has been cut off then the cloth is genuine.
    recommended restaurants - the valley, hanamasa..sindang reret, simpang raya, bakso malang,,sari minang,..bumbu desa..we hired supir and kijang which only cost Rp300k per day. ,,try to call Pak Dadang 081586477705.

  • 37 Flore // Mar 26, 2008 at 5:42 am

    Hi guys, i’ll be dropping by in Bandung for my first visit :) was wondering when u mentioned Rp300k per day. Is it 12 or 16 hours? and is it inclusive of petrol tol parking? Cos some are charging separately. can u recommend a friendly one? :) then we can chit chat and find out more while we’re there :) Thanks in advance

  • 38 azizah // Mar 26, 2008 at 9:11 am

    i recommend you to use totaltravel services (http://www.totaltravel.info/), i did it on Feb 2008, i really satisfied with it. they take me arround for shopping and into the amazing and interrest places in Bandung. you know what i like from them? they make itinerary where combine in several aspect: shopping, relaxing, sighseeing, and tour. i forget about their rate, but i thought average-lah for Bandung…

  • 39 NAJRY // Apr 1, 2008 at 11:43 pm

    I am going to bandung soon and plan to have an ample shopping time there. Something crossed my mind, if all the factory outlet stuff are all original, but rather rejected due to slight defects..How about the pricing to malaysia ringgit?Are all the shops near to each other, or rather located separately?Then, what about public transport?Can i just walk around the city if I were to get to those streets?Finally, how about safety like pick-pocket and so on?It seems the questions are quite a lot, since this is my first time to go there..It’s interesting,many people say, Paris van Java.Thank you.

    Leslie: Hire a car with driver can save you lots of time. Cost you only about Rm100 per day. Most of the shops are nearby but you also need to move from place to place

  • 40 amran // Apr 4, 2008 at 11:56 pm

    hi leslie…going to bandung this may for first time. is it true that most of the shopping area will be close at 5pm

  • 47 a s h // Apr 29, 2008 at 4:44 am

    I just get back from Bandung. This is my 3rd. Its worth to be there. I ensure u guy to share the excitement. Lots of branded stuff and its really cheap. Its recommended for you to book your stay earlier. Otherwise you’ll stranded freezing. Luckily i got fellows who know the city. I suggest you check their exchange rates 1st. The more,the better. I’ve been to lots of factory outlet and i think only few of ‘em are really worths going. Different place with different price. You need to survey their rates. I think the items are almost everywhere the same. You should take few days.hehe.. At jalan Dago is cheaper. There got bundle’s shop selling used item called BAbe (barang bekas). Make sure that the 1st place you go to bcoz the item is limited. Price?dont compare. Its extremely cheap. I went to this restaurant in Sukajadi’s area, “D’cost seafood”.. its cheap and the foods are fabulous..!! yum yum..!! and last but not list, the Bandung’s Hot Chicks..!! They’re Superb. Gorgeous..!! And they also sangat friendly :p

    Enjoy your stay guys..!!
    If u need more info, jes let me noe.. Send me ur email. I’ll be glad to share ‘em with u guys..!!
    I manage to set a team to visit Bandung next August.

    Feels free, come and join us..!! you’re welcome..

    You’ll get more in Bandung compared shopping in msia. Dont forget to check the airlines.

    hye…i just come back from bandung last 2 weeks…bandung is like a heaven for shopaholics like me n my fwens..hee..ape yg i boleh suggest,if u using handphone,dont hesitate to buy new simcard there which means using indonesia’s number..because it is only 12000rp n if we convert it into RM,its about RM4.50 only..very cheap..n if u using SMS,it will cost u only 350rp (RM0.01)..its true because it happened to me..my maxis cannot be using at bandung..then i decided to buy a new simcard..and i compared it with my fwen who are using malaysia’s number (maxis,celcom) one SMS= RM3.00..what a waste…haha..baek abiskn duit utk bershopping lorr..haha

    I was in Bandung this weekend, I bought 3 authentique clothes ( Nike, Jersey of manchester united, and a black shirt Hugo Boss) for 537000 roupias. So almost 27 euro (because I leave I France). Unfortunately, I didn’t have more time. I plan to return there next time. Sincerly, I like it, so 1000 times interesting than ” the sold ” in France actually.
    For the moment, I enjoy my holiday in Jakarta

    Hie……..I will be going to Bandung on 30 Aug-2 Sept. Planning to stay at New Sany Rosa Hotel. Anyone stay there before? If yes, would really appreciate if you could comment on the hotel, i.e. cleanliness, distance to FOs, service, etc.

    Also, I would really like to know how to differentiate the fakes from ori? Anyone can help, pls? Thanks.

    I just got back from Bandung yesterday. My last visit was in April 2008. So its a 2nd visit in a year! The whether is quite hot in Bandung now… so plz bring ur sunglasses with you. According to my good fren in Bandung (she is local), April n August is the best time to do your shopping coz lot of new item will be in outlets. Can wait to go again on December 2008!!

    Hi

    I would recommend ladies to go to Rumah Tas instead of Terminal Tas for ur handbag run. Price is cheaper, better brand and more choices. For men, go for swiss saddle bag or wheeled document/hand luggage.

    For hotel, u can try 4 star Grand Serella close to Riau Junction Shopping Mall with many FOSes and sopping malls just walkaway. Rate is a lil bit above rm100, clean, spacious, .. lupa berapa…

    For lunch and dinner, try Kampung Daun, owned by a indon-chinese billionaire, almost the whole kampung is his. You can ask for Gurame Bakar, very delicious, ayam panggang ets. Very nice surroundings, close to waterfall and clean river. Try try try… ave a try.

    Rumah Made is a must, not only for shopping but for a short break too.. try kopi durian….

    For man, i’m not sure, i didnt really shop. Just get Tiger Wood T Shirt, cheap but look carefully at the stiching and balancing, left and right. (ada balancing mcm kereta jugak ke?). Golf glove is reasonable..

    Zipped suit/blazer, not jacket, is not in Bandung. It’s in Jakarta.. very nice. looks like suit priced around rm40 only.

    Pasar Baru.. banyak baju. kain dll… jgn lupa pergi

    lain2 tips, lupa.. u can email me for more info.. tq bye

    lagi satu.. kalau sdr/i tak biasa ke bandung dan takut kena tipu.. cuba contact Pn Roslina di UPM. Beliau selalu uruskan org ke Bandung dan ada kawan dia akan tunggu d bandung utk sambut. Transport dan hotel boleh mintak, bagi je budget berapa… semua dia boleh urus, tak payah bayar apa2… saya pergi first time dia urus, memang senang, dia akan recommend mana tempat nak pegi… cuba call 0172262458.. tq

    Just came back from Bandung yesterday, went without any itenerary until I came accross Ashari’s entry posted above just the day before departure. Contacted Pn Roslina just the night before flying off and she helped in getting transportation and itenerary arranged. All sorted!! :-) Transportation cost IDR 1 million for 2.5 days on brand new Suzuki APV, friendly driver also. We enjoyed Tangkuban Perahu the most!!! I think shopping at Pasar Baru was worthwhile for things like telekung, kain kebaya etc but the FOs are so so only, quite disappointing, really, didn’t really like the stuff sold there much…Thanks for all the tips, I found info found here most helpful.
