Be sure to manually sort ratings by "most recent" to get up to date reviews, if you want an idea of what customers found.
PS. I should have added.... A very handy list

Posts: 99Just a few hotels I looked at. Agoda.com ratings versus my ratings when I visited and asked to see a room.
Hotels near Travel / Lokasari.
8. 8 (7. 0) LEAF listed in many wrong locations. Middle of nothing. Big rooms but dirty pillow cases and walls.
7. 4 (7. 1) 88 HOTEL across from Travel had dirty bathroom and kids playing in the hallways.
8. 6 (4. 5) ARWANA dark and smelled like stall cigarettes and mold.
8. 2 (7. 3) INFINITY good for the price.
8. 3 (0) CITY BIZ Horrible! Dark. Dirty. Smelled like an ashtray. Got mites there like bedbugs.
8. 3 (0) CITY STYLE Horrible! Dark. Dirty. Smelled like an ashtray. You will get mites there like bedbugs. First room was so small I could not even put my suitcase down to open it so they moved me to a slightly larger room at CITY BIZ where I got attacked by mites. I had a doctor see the bumps and she told me there is a problem in Indonesia. Two street girls I saw had the same red bumps which I assume they had the same thing.
INFINTY, CITY BIZ, CITY STYLE are the same owner. All check ins are at the INFINITY Hotel.
Hotels near Classic.
8. 2 (7. 3) COVE Huge rooms but walls and bed sheets are dirty.
8. 4 (8. 8) HEEF was the cleanest I saw but very small rooms for the price.
Listen the hell up! If you are staying at the high end hotels I am sure you are fine. But all you guys that stay at the cheap hotels like me. You need to stay at a higher level hotel than you normally do or you will be sorry! The ratings by the travel sites and pictures are so off the mark. Basically anything under IDR 270,000 ($18 US) is a no-no.
I have read many times about the pollution here but I have never been out walking when the streets are a parking lot so it has not been bad in my view. What is bad is the cigarette pollution in the hotels. I stayed in a room and it smelled fine whenever I left for a few hours and came back. But as soon as I turned on the air conditioner I could smell cigarettes. I am in a better hotel on a non-smoking floor. Every day for 5 days straight there is some "A"-hole smoking on my floor. To get away from this issue I probably would need to stay at a Holiday Inn or Hyatt level hotel where I am sure they enforce the no smoking rules.

I am a good swimmer, I would like to know if it is big enough for me to practice (2. 5 km / 45 min).
Any other pool option in North?
Thanks.

I have never this before. Let's hope other Hotels don't copy this.
I believe the Holiday Inn is charging more to cover the second breakfast.
If you change the reservation to one person, the price drops by $7 to $10 per night.

In my experience Millenium come top in my list. Good spacious rooms, friendly staff. Easy to travel to North, Central and South Jakarta. Totaly guest friendly. Can hold as many girls as in your room, but breakfast only for booked numbers. Jakarta hotels are awesome.
Novotel is having smaller rooms than Millenium and holiday inn. For late night food depend on Grab food. Its fast and pay on delivery. I used grab food even at 3 in the morning.
My over all experience with hotels in Jakarta in my last three visits are top notch.

Posts: 449Holiday Inn Gaja Madha
I tried to book two nights in Holiday inn through Agoda and Hotel. Com on Feb last week for double occupancy. They are showing an extra charge for second person. I double checked it. Same thing. But for Novotel and Millenium its showin as usual before. Do the over booking in Holiday inn is leading for this upselling?
I tried one King bed with two person including breakfast.
Expecting opinion about Novotel and Millenium. An old review by Smoothy on Millenium was not favourable. So little confused.

But to each their own. Where I sleep is very important to me. Clean, comfy bed, good aircon, no cigarette smell, room service, gym, pool and breakfast. Holiday Inn gives all that for $40/ night.

Add extra time to your commute during Peak hours (5 to 8 pm).
The Santika Premier Hayam Wuruk is on the east side. This is a decent hotel and offers good value.
Santika Hotels are located in all major Indonesian cities. This Hotel chain is very popular with local Indonesians.

Posts: 6419The subway construction is still ongoing and as bad as ever. Is there an end in sight? Makes the entire Hayum Wuruk / Gajah Mada corridor a complete mess. Make sure your hotel is on the east side (Hayum Wuruk) of the street if your go to places are Kota Indah, Travel, Classic, Emporium, Kimochi Mabes, Kelapa Gading etc.
