Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back again."

Top Merdeka Square Hotel Reviews

Mövenpick Hotel Jakarta City Centre

8/10 Good

"Staff were fantastic. Food was good. Rooms are okay - a bit small and under-equipped (no decent desk space). Bathroom not great, shower leaked into main bathroom - reported this to housekeeping, but it did it again the next day. Would appreciate a retractable clothesline in the bathroom as the hotel laundry prices are very high (typical of western hotel prices, which are themselves overpriced)."

Lumire Hotel and Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Good quality for the price"

Four Points by Sheraton Jakarta Thamrin

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice!"

8/10 Good

"Biggest problem: The lifts weren’t enough to service such a massive tower, every trip in/out took more time than necessary. And the food needs a major improvement. Room service and housekeeping was very slow. Otherwise, the room itself was nice."

Aryaduta Menteng

10/10 Excellent

"Aryaduta is a lovely hotel to stay in when in Jakarta. Great location. Wonderful staff. Delicious breakfast. Great pool. This is now my go-to hotel whenever I'm in Jakarta."
