Shangri-la Hotel Jakarta Reviews

Shangri-La Jakarta (7 nights) Guest Rating: 3.7

The Shangri-La Jakarta is a recently renovated (but older) hotel in the business centre of Jakarta. Unfortunately there are no shopping centres or food outlets in the immediate vicinity. You will have to beat the traffic (horrible at times) to reach any of them. The pool area is great. Not many people were using the pool and often we had the entire pool for ourselves. The staff is very friendly altough not of the same standard as for instance in Shangri-La Beijing of on Penang. It is all a bit more casual and relaxed down here. Surprisingly this hote didn't offer a babycot. They only have babycribs suitable to accommodate a newborn. We had to put up with an additional bed (free of charge after a small negotiation) which restricted the space in the room a bit. Overall we are satisfied with this hotel.

Great pool / pool area and garden. Good food. Buffet in the international Tattoo restaurant with changing themes and selections. Friendly staff.

No shopping centre within walking distance.

• Shopping Tip : Passaraya shooping centre: go he the 4th floor for an amazing selection of Indonesian arts and crafts. Not cheap but reasonably priced.

Perfect - as any Shangri-La is Guest Rating: 4.3

As al SL hotels, perfect in every way, they know how to take care of their guests and no hotel lets them down.

The pro is the fact it is a Shangri-La

It's in jakarta - worst Asian city I have been to

• Travel tip : Just try to avoid Jakarta!
