The chain of hotel is called the Sofyan Hotel Group with hotels in Cikni, Betawi & Tebet area! They will require some form of proof that you & your partner are married before renting out the rooms to you!
[QUOTE=1Ball]I do remember hearing about some hotels, where you need to show a marriage license, in order to check in with your wife. (or a member of the opposite sex).[/QUOTE]

Anyone who subsequently asks that question gets banned for life.[/QUOTE]
As is the case for Singapore - but no doubt, this question will come up again and again and again :(
[QUOTE=Oyenk]I remember there is a hotel in JKT; Oasis Amir...so called and they provide transit hours (I think until now).[/QUOTE]
No, Oasis Amir has no problems with ladies in your room.
[QUOTE=Jaimito Cartero]No, Oasis Amir has no problems with ladies in your room.[/QUOTE]
My post conveys that...
[QUOTE=Teredrith]My question was more related to the Marriott as I don't see any threads in this section which talks about this hotel. Now if you say that all hotels in Jakarta are girl friendly based on the fact that if it's true for 1, 2,. It is also valid for N then it's fine for me, and I thank you for that.[/QUOTE]
I typed in "Marriott" in the search function and came up with half a dozen posts that clearly indicate that the Marriott is a suitable hotel for gentlemen who like to take women other than their wives back to their room for sex.
A mere page below where you asked your question Master Diver II, a senior member no less, kindly posted the statement for the benefit of others
"[i]All hotels are girl friendly with the exception of the odd Syariah hotel.[/i]".
Could we make it more easy for you? It's all there folks, just read the freakin' forum!
[quote]One advantage is that the famous (or infamous) BATS pub/night club is located in the basement, where many young lovelies will ask you for 1 million rupiah for ST. Don't pay that much! If you negotiate, you should be able to get the price down to less than half that amount.
Remember, if those same lovelies can't find a customer at BATS, they can often be found at Blok M later in the evening for a much lower price.[/QUOTE]My suspicion is that the reverse also happens. ie. the cuter girls start off at the Blok for STs then move on to the higher end hotels for repeat performaces. I've nothiced that all the better looking girls tend to dissapear from the Blok at around midnight not to be seen again.

Hear hear. I dont understand why some people find it so difficult to RTFF since the information is clearly accessible. Take note that a lot of these questions come from newbies or lurkers from other forums. So to put this matter to rest:
ALL HOTELS IN JAKARTA ARE GIRL FRIENDLY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ODD SYARIAH HOTELS (THE ONLY ONES I KNOW OF ARE THE SOFYAN HOTELS)!
Incidentally, the "walk of shame" is not really very shameful in Jakarta unless you bump into someone you know. I have a couple of porters (at one of the hotels I stay in) who discuss with me regarding the various merits of the girls whom they have seen me with.

You'll also see a lot of girls who haven't found "someone" at BATS/CJs/30(?) - haven't been to Tiga Puluh in ages so I wonder if there is anything there -and other such places either head back to Blok M or Stadium. Sometimes they want a quick one from the Blok so they can afford to go and get wild on E at Stadium (haven't we seen that one before with a certain friend, JAD;)?).

[QUOTE=Mighty Spearsman]Recommendation? (with an 'n'). It's a nice hotel and has some decent restaurants, however it is not cheap. If someone else was paying, I'd be happy to stay here; however, if you're paying out of your own pocket, there are other nearby hotels (such as Le Meridien) that are almost as nice but much cheaper.

I have the money to pay what they want but I agree with you I don't want to stuff up the market price. What would be a fair price for LT and what time of the night should I leave the premises to get an all nighter.
Thanks for any response. I will let you all know how things go.
[QUOTE=Curtains]I may just have one chance at Bats ( I will be leaving Jakarta the next day) and I don't want to screw it up.
[/QUOTE]
Depending on time of night and day of week, fair price is 500-800K but given your circumstance I know you'll end up saying yes to one juta!
Good luck and remember Bats girls end up at Blok M after closing time (and for less).
PS - since you have money to blow, politely suggest you pay jackson and get pm privileges.
[QUOTE=LookingToSwing4]Thanks for the clarification. I do believe I will search for an area closer to BlokM and just focus on a smaller area while I am there. Good chance I am going to spit a 2.5 week holiday between Indonesia and Philippines, anyways. From all the posts I have read, I am sure there is enough in that general area to keep me occupied the entire time, if that is what I wish. I did find a Jakarta map with hotel listings near the various entertainment areas, so that will help things considerably.[/QUOTE]
Hi,
Hope I am not too late with this info but closer to Blok M you should try Hotel Ambhara. I stayed there during the New Year and the hotel is great. Clean rooms, good gym, good breakfast, staff very friendly etc. etc. all for $55.00 USD (booked at KAHA). It within walking distance to the Mall and to Blok M. However, be warned, while the 'walk of shame' starts in the lobby of most hotels, the 'walk of shame' starts from Blok M with your lady.
Hi everyone and thank you for all great information.
I am looking for vacation apartment for 2 weeks in April and I will be so glad if you guys help me out. You can pm with all the information and hope to hear great news.

I can second that this is a great value for money. In the hotel bar the staff is also very helpful, even with mongering topics. But if you walk in instead of booking with Kaha you end up paying a lot more.

That's a decent price for the Ambhara. I paid about $15-$20 more when I last stayed a few years back. Perhaps it's the strength of the dollar, or business is slowing down.
I stayed at the Gran Mahakam hotel last month which is within easy walking distance to Blok M. Had three different girls stay with me over my seven night stay and no problem with the hotel staff. One girl moved in for three days and parked in the hotel u/g parking.
Hey guys,
Just joined this site and this is my first posting. Will be in Jakarta in April 2009 and plan to stay at the FM 1 Boutique hotel. No pictures of the room or lobby etc, except for the building. Is this hotel good and clean for a couple of nights stay. Any kind of information including girls and so on is appreciated.
Cheers!
