Hotels near Merdeka Square, Jakarta, Central Jakarta

I had a wonderful stay at Pan Pacific Jakarta. The hotel is modern, elegant, and offers stunning city views. The room was comfortable, the service was excellent, and the breakfast was outstanding with a great variety of delicious local and international dishes. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again.

The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable, but the bathtub looked a bit old, so we didn't dare use it. Breakfast was extensive, but it got very crowded, and we had to queue to be seated. I recommend going early to avoid peak hours. The spa was closed during our stay. We arrived quite late and asked the hotel staff how to get to the hotel bar for dinner. When we got to the bar's entrance, we found out that shorts were not allowed. The hotel staff should have informed us earlier. Was it amusing for them to watch us make a wasted trip? We walked around outside the hotel, but there weren't many restaurants, so we ended up ordering takeout. We had to go down to the lobby ourselves to pick it up, as the hotel staff wouldn't deliver it to the room.

I had a very enjoyable stay at Ascott Jakarta. The room was exceptionally spacious, clean, and comfortable, providing a relaxing environment after a day of exploring the city. The location was convenient, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. One area for improvement would be the breakfast selection, as a wider variety of options would enhance the overall experience. Nevertheless, the quality of the stay, the large room size, and the comfort provided more than made up for this. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, and I would gladly return on my next visit to Jakarta.

The room was clean and spacious, and the bedding was very comfortable. It was a bit dry inside the room, so I recommend leaving some water in the bathroom sink. The front desk service was quite good, and they had convenient Google Translate. There's a cafeteria on the ground floor with a good variety of breakfast and dinner options, featuring local flavors and a taste that leans towards Southern Chinese cuisine. Nearby, there's McDonald's and KFC, and across the street, a large supermarket and food court. However, there's road construction, so you have to walk an extra two to three hundred meters.

We spent 4 nights here at this hotel. The location is great, foods are around the corner as well as a mini market. The hotel service are reception are excellent. The room is clean and spacious. The room is a little outdated, but still good and didn't spoil our stay. The gym is good with all the machines you need. The pool is decent size. Our stay at this hotel was very good and we'll certainly stay here again in the near future.

Facilities: A magnificent and grand 5-star hotel in the absolute heart of Greater Jakarta. Service: Extremely warm, natural, and accommodating service. Hygiene: Clean, tidy, and no unpleasant odors. Environment: Right outside the entrance is a large shopping mall, and getting a taxi is convenient.

A mixed bag of feelings here. I thought I was feeling lucky when they told me at check-in that I was getting a complimentary upgrade (to Deluxe) Unfortunately I was plagued with a number of recurrent issues. The room itself is very nice (311), best thing about it was the bed and the views into the city by the window. With that said, it did have a number of issues, so it was not the finished article in my mind (the safe locked without instructions, the wooden strip on the floor coming off making me trip, the kettle malfunctioning, not hot water on the basin, so had to use the kettle to shave daily) When I arrived, it had not been fully cleaned (see pictures) All of these were actually minor issues vs. other stuff I experienced, I didn't make much of it as I was getting an upgrade. The problems came a few days later when it started raining, and suddenly I was getting sore throats in the room with the temp marking almost 25c and the air con off. I had to take mucolytics and anti-flu tablets cause I was getting a bad cold there. I was wondering if the air conduct were releasing bad spores into the air because it was so tatty (pictures attached) So with no heating, I got cold there with 27c outside, I find this very very strange. But the much bigger problem was a few days later when I was hearing massive thumps, bangs and wall stomping from the room right above me, they had placed a family with 4 kids on top of me and it went on at all times in the evening. It got so bad that I requested a change of room, and surprise, they gave me a really REALLY bad downgrade to the 17th floor in a much smaller room, on a really grotty floor that looked like a 2 star highway motel. I thought maybe they were penalising me. The staff at reception told me the next day the people checked out, but the same noises continued another 2 days, so they lied to me or they placed another family with noisy children. The floor on top is super thin. You can hear anyone walking as if they re stomping on it.It will drive you crazy. I also heard people next door hammering something at 1 am in the morning for two nights straight. This hotel has big structural problems. I don't pay $520 to get tortured, it felt like it at some point. On a separate note, the breakfast service was more like a brunch, very varied and many choices (except for meat and fish that was very underwhelming) They had a temp control management problem, there were mornings when I touched the trays and they were at room temp. Also the plates for the hot section are not heated, so that with the powerful air con overhead translated into your hot food going lukewarm almost immediately, which makes it taste disgusting. It was only the last 2 or 3 days when I started placing my plates on the griddle for a few mins with the staff's permission, when I could finally start eating hot food. Due to this, I was getting ”stomach runs” every single day after breakfast, except for two days. This is a breach of H&S So there are several issues that affected my health here. The restaurant and cafe in the evening had some good meals. The Mexican had some Western tucker that I enjoyed, my last meal (Mexican enchiladas) was underwhelming, felt like cantine food that was microwaved and badly, because I had to send it back for being lukewarm. Overall I cannot recommend this hotel due to numerous health problems I suffered. I also discovered that if it weren't for the upgrade, I would have been given a horrible room like the one I saw quite possibly.(the room I received cost almost $1000 for two weeks, still very overpriced) This wasn't cheap, and I feel it was so expensive for what it was. Definitely not a 4 star, a 3 star is more befitting. The staff was mostly corteous, And premises are up to standard only in places. The gym was very nice. The pool area nice with some views, if only a little tiny..

The room layout was excellent, and the bathroom was a good size. The breakfast restaurant on the second floor was spacious and bright, with a good variety of dishes. The staff were polite, warm, and provided attentive service. The hotel's location is superb, with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby, making it very convenient for dining out and getting around.

i had a good stay my kids enjoy too, the mall are so near to each other was just walking distance. the staffs were friendly too and nice i asked for extra pillows. But only the toilet drain was a bit chocked. other than tht all ok

The room was generally clean and affordable! There's a big mall nearby, right by the main road. The only downside was that the bathroom water was salty, but overall, it was a decent stay.
