Jakarta Hotels

I liked this place. The rooms were big and dark with the curtains drawn (very important after a long flight). The lobby was nice and the service was good. There is a small swimming pool, lots of taxis waiting to take you elsewhere and the Ambassador Shopping Mall nearby. I couldn't help but feel that there were hotels closer to the action - you can't really take a walk from this place, it's on a main road. But cabs are so cheap you just zip over to where you need to go. Unless I got better ad - Graeme

The hotel just opened, next to Grand Hyatt. Like Hyatt this hotel have their own mall they call it with Grand Indonesia Shopping Mall. Smooth check-in and check-out, huge reception counter. Staff was so amazing !!! Great breakfast choiced and variety. With paying USD 220 so worth with what u get. For sure stay with this hotel. - Gemma

My husband and I, accompanied by our 13 year old son stayed at the Aston Rasuna Apartment block. What can I say, I thought it was fantastic value for money. The apartment was very nice, it was clean and also well stocked. We had a two bedroom apartment, with kitchen/diner and living area. There was also an outside balconey and another room which held the washing machine. The security was fantastic and made us feel very secure (even if it was a little bit over the top). Aston Rasuna is a gated co - Darren

We chose this hotel because of the previous reviews that we had read. We were not disappointed! The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are lovely and have a good range of facilities. My husband liked the fitness room on one of the lower floors, he described it as being well equipped. The buffet breakfast was super - a full range of everything! Sit on the balcolny as it gives you a really good view of the lower floor of the hotel. The staff are very friendly and will do anything for you, ask them to r - Roger

Was in Jakarta only for one night as I needed to get away from work for the weekend. The Ascott was THE perfect location to stay as it has 2 huge malls just beside it (complete with anything and everything you need), which thoroughly filled the 2 days I was there. The room was HUGE (I was in the studio), yet cosy enough for 2. Paid for it using the online 25th anniversary special so had free internet as well -- which was very reasonably fast -- and breakfast, which was perhaps one of the 2 thing - Victoria

The long-term guest below must have been unlucky with all his problems. We stayed two nights, and everything was working fine. OK, the TV was a bit old and grainy, but remember you're not paying Sheraton prices to live here. Breakfast was smallish, nothing much to write home about. If I had to pay extra for that I'd opt out. But staff is helpful, security impressive, we made good use of the washer/dryer, and enjoyed the spacious apartment. I guess due to the economic downturn the shops in t - Carole

I stayed at grandkemang hotel for 3 nights and left for Bali, then come back to stay for another 2 nights before flying home to US. The first 3 nights, I got a deluxe room in the old side of the building. The room is huge, very spacious, but kind of run down. But I didn't have a problem, I like the space, and having friends over to hang out in the room after clubbing. All the staff are very friendly and nice, very accomodating. The pool are is nice, and the water was awesome in the morni - John
