If you use credit card there is a very good chance the hotel will charge you about 3% on top to cover what visa etc charge them as fees plus if your transaction is in rupiah you will also get charged a conversion/transaction fee when your c/c bill comes in.
You are going to have the money in your safe in any case so why not change $300-$500,or whatever you are comfortable with, every few days so you dont have too much on you at any time and obviously keep that in the safe.
