I stayed here for a conference at the university nearby, but it has definitely seen better days. My room was really nice and big (19th floor) and on the back side of the hotel, so no road noise, which woke up other people. I did hear the call to prayer almost every morning at 4:15am, then again and again. I sort of liked it, but it wasn't the hour I wanted to wake up. My A/C worked fine (too fine- the standard set point was 16 C which is WAY too cold for me, but other rooms didn't cool at all when set to 16). It's true I didn't have much hot water, but I had just enough that I wasn't cursing and punching things from the cold water, so it was fine. Only one elevator was serving all the floors with rooms above 5 where the lobby is, so that meant sometimes it took 10-15 minutes to get to where you needed to go and stairs were not readily available.... Not the standards one would expect in USA, Europe, Australia, but breakfast was good, staff were all working hard, and it got the job done.

This is hotel is to be avoided at all costs. It’s falling apart. First room - not clean, urine on the floor. Smell of smoke even though non-smoking room. Askef to be moved. Second room- The airconditioning has not been cleaned in ages and it leaks flooding the entire room. Twice the technician came to fix and still the same although after that it was on an off leaking. Amenities missing in the room. Smell of smoke present in the second room too though a bit more faint. Staff says fully booked and can’t move to any other room. Colleagues faced similar issues. Breakfast variety and quality dubious. We checked out the following morning and moved elsewhere. I suggest you don’t even consider it as an option.

This is a decent hotel and located quite close to the Halim express train station. Staff were friendly and helpful.

On the other side, the hotel could do well with a touch up to make it look nicer.

Note that our room was very noisy with traffic from the road outside and the air conditioner was quite loud on the ledge outside. In addition, we had issues with our door lock not accepting the key cards despite the best efforts of the staff.

Breakfast was very nice - nasi kuning being the highlight.

We went to this property after a long flight so we could easily connect the Woosh high speed train the next morning, but it was a big mistake.
This is a filthy rundown hotel. Our room cost over $100. It offers gym, swimming pool and room service. Non of it is available or viable. The hotel condition and maintenance was deplorable. Carpets, walls and curtains were beyond filthy. The pool scary dirty and I didn’t bother to even go to the gym. The coffee shop did not serve alcohol which i could accept, but neither coke, soda or juice. It only served tea coffee and water. Our room was rank and reeked of greasy smoky curtains. Even a nicotine fog on the windows. It was supposed to be Non Smoking.
We,had a corner room 18 floors up above a freeway intersection and the traffic noise of trucks horns and motorbikes persisted the whole night. It was a really poor sleep.
The bathroom had cracked sink and a slimy slippery shower; i had itchy toes from athletes foot by morning.
My friend had stayed in an adjacent hotel that did not offer any pool or room service but was clean tidy and half the price. How can this hotel call itself Best Western ?
As no room service despite advertising we had to eat outside in a sad shopping centre but the food was quite good.
There are two lifts which are very slow and it is a tower block so the lift doors open often for no reason.
No one should stay in this hotel.
It’s a ripoff and dirty to the point of creepy. How can it even stay in business?

The breakfast was amazing there, my wife loved it. But I was on the 20th floor and I could hear everything. Usually most rooms in Jakarta are sound proofed, this one was not. I had to sleep with the tv on to drown out the noise of traffic and other guests. The rooms are worn down and lacking maintenance but the staff was fantastic

Quite night

I was staying in another hotel near BW, but it was incredibly noisy! I changed hopping to stay in a quite place, and I got it! The sound level in the room was very low and I had a pleasant night! All the staff very polite, breakfast with good options. Only the shower wasn't that good, the floor became very very wet due to lack of protection. But I'll stay there again

This hotel exceeded my expectations. I booked it because it was affordable and got a surprise room upgrade. They ask for a 300,000 Rupiah room deposit (about $20 US)
which can be paid by credit card.

The location is accessible by using Grab. There is a convience store (on the 2nd floor next door but only open until 10pm), KFC, Starbucks, and many local restaurants jist outside the ground floor lobby.

The free breakfast buffet was awesome. The staff were very nice.

The only problem I experienced was they could not find the receipt for my 300,000 Rupiah on Checkout ($20 USD). I was trying to communicate that I owed 290,000 to them on my tab anyways, but I was in a hurry to get to the airport so I left without resolving it. It was a stressful ending to an otherwise lovely stay.

This is a decent hotel run by a very good manager, whom I happened to meet. The hotel is quite competitively priced, and has a very good restaurant -- breakfasts are especially good and well worth the price. At present there's a fair amount of construction around the hotel, and this can make access during rush hour sometimes slow but not impossible. The fitness center is mid-grade but serviceable, with two treadmills, some good machines. Staff and management are top rate.

Bad Experience in a BW Premier Hotel in Jakarta

Hotel does not live up to the 4 star ratings. Room lights was dim and air-con system poorly maintained. Pillows needed a change. The bath towels were clearly worn out with a used smell - not freshness that comes out from a laundry. Toilet drainage emits a foul smell and one could smell while brushing your teeth. Request for an iron and ironing board fallen on deaf ears because of language barrier. Overall, the stay in this Hotel was below average.

I am not so happy

I stay 9 nights in this hotel. I can say the rent was value for what paid. Generally the area was good and easily reachable to the main road and easy to get a cab to go anywhere. The room size is good. The shower area was not good as the water is still stays in the floor and slowly emptying. There was free minibar. But most of the day they will not refill. Housekeeping was not so good. They are not changing everyday until you will ask them to do so. Breakfast menu almost same everyday. There should be supposed to include international food. Long stay not advisable as you will disappointed.

4.5 Star - I dont think so

The first room was very noisy from the traffic- dont stay at the front of the hotel. The second room offered - dirty, floor was so warped and damaged i cut my foot on sharp edge of water damaged flooring, Air conditioning did not work and room smelled, third room was very smelly in bathroom - exhaust fan was broken and bathroom was so musty could barely stand to be in there long enough to shower. Hotel lobby and restaurant was good but the rooms were DEFINATELY NOT 4.5 star. Would never stay there again or recommend to anyone.

Good hotel for the price

While the place does bill itself as a 5 star hotel, the facilities say otherwise. The staff themselves are extremely helpful and friendly, most if not all the people I interacted with speak both Bahasa Indonesia and English. From the bellhop, checkin, room service, and housekeeping strived to meet my needs. The breakfast buffet was absolutely wonderful. Everything was delicious. I would suggest going either early or later, as the restaurant can get quite crowded. The rooms were laid out well and the bedding was comfortable, but the hotel rooms have started to show a lot of wear, especially in the bathrooms. It wasn't very clean, as there was mold and grout separation. There was some tearing of the ceiling as well, but for the price these issues were able to be overlooked. The area wasn't super accessible by foot, but this wasn't much of an issue, as private drivers can be hired easily in this country. This hotel gets high marks from locals and travelers from nearby countries, but as a foreigner who has stayed at all levels of lodging, this ranks somewhere in the middle.

Good solid hotel close to Halim Airport.

Nice and close to Halim Airport. Staff were friendly and helpful when I needed to print something off. The breakfast was decent, and wifi worked well. The room was a little tired, but the bed was comfortable. Aircon unit and traffic did make a bit of noise, but nothing earplugs couldn't fix. A little Asian food court in the same building was a cheap easy option for food. Not many other shops around

Hotel is in a Good Location in Cawang

Locationwise the hotel is in very good location. Main lobby is in 5th floor, looks a little discomfort. There are no enough place for the visitor of the guest if there is small meeting except restaurant. Breakfast restaurant is much busy and should wait for long time to get a seat as it is small place. Need to improve. Most of the food is Indonesian. Have to include international breakfast. Room rates are good and affordable. Room facilities are OK. But some rooms are smelly. Need to improve. Overall its fine. Will go back again.

Best Western Keep Disappointing

This is my second Best Western establishment in Jakarta and was very disappointed by the room. While the service is very good and the staff is very nice as well as try very hard to provide quality service but the rooms are very disappointing. My first room Air Conditioner was very bad, the corridor was cooler then the room. After complaining we were moved to a cooler room. I also ordered an extra bed but it took 3 hours before it was installed in my room!
