This place is an amazing example of over the top decadence!
The decor is not my personal style by any means - but it is quite fabulous for a few nights! The rooms are extremely comfortable with every luxury - big feather pillows and fluffy quilts- there is a lot of gilding and frills - but nothing too offensive- that is the style of the local well heeled in these parts it seems! One thing that was a bit too tacky for my taste though was there was a palm tree in our room, that on closer inspection we discovered was plastic! - not sure why it couldn't be real as they are not exactly expensive in Indonesia!
The staff are excellent polite courteous and helpful..
The buffet breakfast is the best I have EVER had! (and I have had a few!) It is served in a palatial hall and every kind of breakfast you can imagine and more is on offer , European of all descriptions, a waffle station as well as all the regular fair - (including fresh exotic fruits from abroad that we miss living here such as peaches, plums and cherries... ) Chinese Yum cha dumplings, Japanese, Indian and of course Indonesian! even if you aren't staying at this hotel I would recommend coming here for the breakfast!
The hotel is in close proximity to a couple of the best Malls in JKK
So it is quite a good spot for shopping etc... stayed at a few other places but this is still my favorite.. not sure what the rate is for overseas guests but as we have work residency visa's the price was only $100 USD including B/F a bargain !
