Fantastic 5.0

Highly recommended this hotel for someone who likes shopping. Near with all shopping places. Breakfast with variety choice. Room is big. View also nice. But its quite dirty. A friend saw a small cockroach in her room.

They gave us a glass bottle of water and we could refill it at the designated water station. I was happy that they stopped providing plastic bottles — a great step toward sustainability!

Indoor swimming pool, so no need to worry about getting too hot or rained on. Quite unique and interesting, I will stay here again if I come to Jakarta again.

Fantastic 5.0

Total experience was spectacular, it was a pleasure to stay with Langham. There were only some issues that I felt needed to be addressed on: Dress code for breakfast need to be adhered upon and staff need to remind guest the ethics of proper dressing for breakfast. Especially those guest who don on skimpy outfits (short dresses/ short shorts with revealing butt cheeks/ even boxers). I somewhat expected the staff to be more adamant for the dressing wise. Nonetheless, the experience was well received and it was spectacular. Keep it up in maintaining the amazing work in the hotelier. Expect great services from there again! Thank you everyone!

I love the hotel especially it’s classic atmosphere with nice wall sculpture and paintings. The breakfast buffet was good and the bed is very comfortable as I had a very nice sleep.

Great 4.0

Budget friendly Hotel for its location and amenities. We stayed here for 2 nights because its near Tanah Abang and Metro, a shopping haven for Muslims. Its also near Sarinah, Sabang Night Market and 17mins walk to Grand Indonesia Mall.

Fantastic 5.0

The location is quite strategic, the hotel has a unique interior and is affordable. However, the rooms are not very clean, I booked a non-smoking room but somehow there was a stale cigarette smoke smell near the window and in the bathroom. The facilities are complete, there is a swimming pool, gym and the rooms are complete with smart TVs.

Great 4.0

It's reasonably close to the TB Simatupang office area, suitable for business trips. The breakfast could probably be improved.
