Jakarta - Hotels

[Expat American]

Hello,

Do all the rooms have windows that face the hotel corridor and not the outside?

Why would you stay at Classic for $40 when for the same price you can stay at the Holiday Inn which is a proper 4* hotel with clean large non smoking rooms with large windows? Its only a 25 K 10 min cab ride from Classic anyway.

I am still a bit confused after reading few pages.

I will be in Jakarta just for few days, this being my first time. Obviously I don't want to be too adventurous right away so was wondering if there are any hotels that are recommended for getting in-calls?

I prefer to have fun either in the hotel room or in a "casa" (Brothel) type place where one can choose from multiple girls but is assured of a safe, non-rushed experience in decent facilities (with showers etc.).

Can some kind souls please guide me in right direction? Thank you.

I stayed in a smoking room.

It has a powerful ventilation system to suck smoke out of the room, also a window open to outside.

Surely the girls are not required to be on premises 24 hours. Discreetly get the girls number and meet up when she's not working.

I believe OP was asking if he could use his room for the ST instead of onsite. That's not possible. It is possible to get her when she is not working but that's usually around 3 am.

Works fine in rooms and lobby. Did not have any interruption.

Stay a night or two to try it out. If you stay long, make a deal with Yosephine. She always wheels and deals. You likely will have a very good deal.

Coolio, I think I will do exactly that. Thanks for the intel!

Thanks for this. How's the wifi at Classic? I'm deliberating between staying here for trying to find an airBnB for a month, perhaps two.

I stayed at Classic a couple nights, among others.

It's nice, clean, quiet. Floors are all shiny marbles and tiles. Rooms are larger than competition. Sheets and towels are bright white, nice and fresh. Everything works properly including the large tv with streaming.

Breakfast is much better than competition. I like good coffee in the morning without having to walk out. The 2 clubs with lots of hot girls right next to it is precious.

I wouldn't plan on taking a girl from the club to the hotel. I would just want to avoid the long walk or cab ride to another hotel late at night.

Indonesia is not Thailand. If you are expecting the same setup as Bangkok or Pattaya then you will be disappointed. The girls in Thailand are much more independent than those in Jakarta. The prostitution scene is closely controlled in all ways. Girls do not operate independently at places like Classic, they are under strict control of management and mama sans. So they will keep them under their premises and make you use the short term rooms. However the ST rooms are perfectly fine and clean. Sheets are changed after every customer. Showers are nice and have hot water. And then why mess up your clean sheets in your room that you sleep on?

Anyone here actually stay at Classic hotel?

Just wondering if you are staying at Classic will the girls come to your room or do you still have to use the short time rooms with them? I prefer bringing girls to my own room as I do in Thailand so I was wondering if that works in Classic. Thanks for the report.

Classic girls go to the clubs' own ST rooms. But you can ask mamasan to bring Classic girls to your own room. I don't think they would object.

If they object, talk to Yosephine. She's the boss and she can get you what you want.

It's in North Central area, about 1 mile North of the green, leafy, upscale central government district with the National Monument, Main Mosque, huge Greek Orthodox church with twin tall metal towers across the street.

Travel club and Lockasari Plaza are about 1. 5 miles North, $1 Grab Bike or $2 Grab Car. Jalan Ceylon 1 block SW has some good, clean restaurants. Many AYCE grills and shabus are $1 ride away.

Classic is nice, clean, quiet, all shiny marble and tile floor with red teak wood furniture.

Service is very good and professional. Towels and sheets are fresh, clean, sparkling white, far better than other hotels. Smoking rooms have strong ventilation to suck out smoke in the room when turned on. They also have open windows to outside air.

It has a good breakfast buffet 88 are or $6 with strong coffee, eggs cooked to order and other tasty Indonesian dishes. It's closer to a 5 star hotel in LOS Angeles.

Of course the 2 clubs in the same building is very convenient. Classic Clubs and the girls do better and more honest business than Travel.

Yosephine is the manager. She will do better deals than Agoda, $25 without and $28 with breakfast, very good deal considering a small bowl of noodle soup will cost $4 in a filthy shop nearby. Contact her by email or phone on the web site to reserve.

In my two visits in 2019 and 2023,I stayed in Classic, Holiday inn, Mercure in Central Jakarta and Bfashion in West Jakarta. IMHO Mercure is the topnotch. Access to all popular places like Classic, Travel and walkable distance to Emporvium, Malio. Great 5 star property with moderatly priced. Of course girlfriendly. Have a bar and lucky you can get joiners from there itself.

Vertu Harmony is near Mercure. Great location good breakfast but rooms bit smaller. 4 star property and around40 $. I am still in contact with a beautiful girl in the restaurant and will meet her outside this time. Holiday inn is an awesome spacious hotel with great breakfast and is accessable to North Jakarta. 1001 colossium. It took 40 minutes to travel to Kelapa Gading from there. Metro work was going on in 2023 Feb so traffic congestion, don't know about present situation.

Bfashion was an old hotel in West Jakarta. I enjoyed Dutch wife concept of Jakarta hotels there in my first visit. Spa was good and I still have contact with a beautiful girl from the spa in Bfashion. In my second visit it felt the room was cramped. Hotel is close to Airport so last night I prefer to stay here.

In my upcoming trip to Jakarta in February, my plan is to stay in South Jakarta and focus on the Spas, bars, clubs and freelancers from there. Harris Suits or any 4 star hotel is my target close to Eastern Province or Mblock, Dragon fly or H Club. Expecting some pointers from Veterans in Jakarta.

Regards.
