nice place to rest after a day of traffic batting”

MaxOneHotels @ Sabang is located along a street with lots of local street food which opens til late. If you're not adventurous enough to try the street food (like me), there're a few eateries nearby, some of which serves Indonesian food. There are also a few convenience stores and a 7-11 which are just a stone's throw away. The hotel's relatively easy to locate, as the design of the hotel stands out a lot and can be spotted from a distance. Most taxi drivers will know how to get there if you tell them the keywords "Sabang" and "Agus Salim," at least from my experience. The hotel is near to shopping places like Sarinah and Grand Indonesia (10-15 min walk / 5-10 min by taxi because of insane traffic). Ask the hotel reception for walking directions. The room was small, but clean and comfortable. Ours didn't have a hair-dryer but it was provided to us promptly when we asked for it at the reception. The shower (including a rain-shower) was amazing, temperature and water pressure was consistent. The air-conditioning was strong. Beds were clean and comfortable. There were however, some stains on the towels but it doesn't really bother me. The walls of the room were also quite thin, and it can get quite noisy early in the morning. The WiFi signal, contrary to most reviews here, was quite inconsistent and weak. I suspect the WiFi signal is dependent on the location of your room. Maybe this is something that the hotel management can work on. It didn't bother us though, because we purchased a local SIM card with a data bundle.

Good vibes space near Merdeka Square”

I stayed at MaxOneHotels at Sabang for a layover coming from Bandung. Situated near Merdeka Square, this hotel along Jl Sabang features playful fixtures, from their elevators to 'do not disturb' signs. Plus points also for using refillable soap + shampoo instead of disposable toiletries.

Funky Low Cost Lodging”

I have stayed at the MaxOneHotel at Sabang before so I knew what I was getting: a low-cost, great location, friendly staff hotel. This is a no-frills place to stay but a place I would recommend to friends who don't want to spend too much but stayed in a convenient location for traffic congested Jakarta.

clean affordable hotel in the heart of Jakarta”

if you are honeymooners or want to spend most of your time in a hotel,this is not for you. if you are on tight budget but still need a clean room to rest and nice shower after long day, this hotel worth the value. apparently, it was a brand new hotel with colorful pop style interior and in the perfect location to enjoy the city without experience hours of taxi drive in a notorious jakarta traffic jam. the room and bathroom was small, not the most comfortable sleeping bed, but it was very clean, which is a really big deal for us. the hotel is in jalan sabang (h. agus salim) where you can easily found 24 hours money changer and convenient stores, legendary delicious street food and worldwide choice of restaurant, from 24 hours padang food to lebanese food. it was only walking distance to trans jakarta bus stop (a busway transportation that has its own lane so it is relatively free from traffic jam). with the busway you can go to sudirman business district area or gambir train station easily. also 10-15 minutes walk from hotel are several malls; from the luxury mall plaza indonesia (upscale mall for luxury brand like louis vuitton), ex mall – younger and hype mall that has hard rock café and great place to hangout, the sarinah thamrin – famous for indonesian handicraft, mexican restaurant and the huge grand indonesia shopping centre right in the front of the jakarta iconic water fountain.

Cozy Minimalist Hotel”

Max One placed on Sabang Street @ centre of the jakarta, sabang street is one of cullinary tour place in this town. If you stay in max one hotel you don't need to use a vehicle to reach sabang street. Max one hotel is near to jalan jaksa, one of destination for you people that love to spent your vacation with a night-life adventure. Heared nice right. Max one hotel has a concept as a minimalist hotel i thought... the room not so big.. but it so cozy and has a good facility too such as a free wi fi service. I could say that it is on of recomended hotel with minimalist concept on jakarta.

Great Location, Excellent Value”

i knew the location well and was delighted that a hotel had been built on what was a building site. location is perfect on sabang amongst jakarta's best warungs. hotel itself funky and minimalist. very clean, staff very friendly. there's only a coffee shop selling starbuck's style gimmicks, best go a few doors down to sabang 16 for some real toraja coffee. for food well its all around you. rooms very small, had to put suitcasae under bed as no other room for it. no wardrobe, just a few coat hooks. from now on this is my favoured hotel in jakarta, at half the price of the nearby ibis's there's really no competition.

Nice boutique hotel located conveniently”

This seemingly new boutique hotel situated in an interesting part of Thamrin where it stands out amongst the older buildings surrounding it. The hotel is located very close to the city center. A five-minute walk takes you to shopping malls such as Plaza EX, Plaza Indonesia and the Grand Indonesia where you can shop, eat and/or go see a movie. If you prefer to walk, the National Monument (Monas) and the National Musuem are a 20 minute walk from the hotel. Next to the hotel is an alleyway full of local food stands where you can experience the local dishes at a very affordable price, but I think they're only open Monday-Fridays to serve the office workers nearby. Just learn some of the basic Indonesian words or point at pictures, they'll be willing to serve you. The hotel staff are not too fluent in English but I had no problem dealing with them (I don't know Indonesian). Every day, the cleaning staff will replenish one or two free bottles of water (I don't remember) if they see that you don't have any. At night, there are local outdoor food stands nearby that I'd recommend trying. Other than that, the hotel room was adequate, quaint and comfortable. I had no problems with the hotel and it was cheap given the location. I'd stay there again during a future visit. Also, in Jakarta, I'd recommend getting some fresh fruit juices from the local stands.

Best value hotel”

Everything is good, location in down town of Jakarta (Jalan Sabang - Thamrin Area), easy access to public transportation, clean room. I recommended this hotel to businessman and backpacker, but if you go with family, the room is not enough for adult with child. (minus) : Package room without breakfast. You must pay if you want breakfast at hotel.

Excellent Location in Central Jakarta”

I love this hotel very much..very nice interior design..very good shower & nice bed..got convenience store, coffee house & ATM machine at the lobby..location was perfect along JL. Sabang a.k.a Food Street..7 minutes to Tanah Abang,Plaza Indonesia, Grand Indonesia & Monas (Icon of Jakarta)..Breakfast was not included but there are plenty of options nearby..recommended to all except family with children

Superb Location”

Location - superbly located on the far end of Jalan Sabang which turns into a hawker heaven at night - good selection of local food. As bfast is not included, you might want to try Sabang 16 Coffee Shop which is located a few doors away frm the hotel. Transjakarta bus stop is only 5 mins walk away. Plaza Indonesia - 10 mins on foot. Hotel - Clean. Room a bit small but compensated with nice decor. There is a 24 hr convenient store on grnd floor. Friendly staff. Good security feature. No wardrobe and safe deposit box though.

Great location, fantastic staff, clean rooms!”

after a long flight to jakarta, we were so pleased to arrive at such a beautiful, clean hotel. the staff were very helpful, and the location was so easy to find! sabang seems to be quite a popular place. along the street are little shops for snacks, water and beer, as well as an apotek (pharmacy) and a great little cafe called the baked goods! overall, our stay was great and we would recommend to other travelers!

Maxone great prices and location ”

This is my 2nd stay of my 4 visits to Jakarta and found Maxone Sabang location a stones throw away from Gambir Transport terminal where Damri Bus travel to and from Hatta T2 Airport almost every hour .The staff are friendly and will go the extra to serve your needs " I ce asked that my mango bought outside be sliced and they cut and serve in a nice platter in a jiffy .Room and facilities are clean , easy to use and elevator are always available .Free wifi is fast and easy to access. Wow Maxone Sabang

simply fun”

maxone hotel is located in central jakarta. very close to sudirman-thamrin, where the biggest malls are located. and also you can find jakarta's fav culinary at sabang street. my fav is soto ceker pak gendut. super delish! and the rooms are very comfortable. not large, but comfortable and clean. and the staff are also very helpful and friendly. me and my spouse are big fans of this hotel.

Walking distance to important spots”

We dont like Jakarta at all. Traffic jam, so many people, so many motor cycle...etc. But it is capital so we wanted to see it. I dont think i will never go back there :) In my opinion location of MaxOneHotel Sabang is ok because it is really close to all important spots such as National Monument, National Museum, Istiqlal Mosque, Cathedral...etc and u can reach them by walking. It was good for us. Also the hotel is located between two stops of transJakarta. On the left side Sarinah and the right side Bank Indonesia but for sure u need to go main road. It takes nearly 10 minutes... So you can take bus where you wanna go. According to comments on web about transJakarta, you can easily think it is modern transportation :) But sorry guys it is not :) I live in China so I get used to some interesting transportation ways so it was not problem for me :) May be it will be for you :) We didnt prefer go outside at nights because at nights hotel environment doesnt look safe to us anyway we couldnt find anything to do at night in Jakarta cuz we just went there for historical places and worth to see spots not for its nightlife. So I dont have any idea about its night life. If you can eat sth on street you can easily enjoy the environment cuz there are so many places to eat. I can recommend one thing. At first time it seemed disgusting to me but then we decided to try it. I am 100% sure you will see it. It is nearly round stuff and in the middle of it there is sth green :) And it is delicious, you should try it... It is just a cake :) On the main road there are starbucks, burgerking, mcdonalds...etc. So location is ok. Our room was really cute and clean but it was really small. They have hot water really hot one :) If you want, everyday they clean your room but they dont change towels everyday. Tv has so many channel so you can enjoy :)

Excellent budget hotel!”

I loved my stay at MaxOne Sabang. Great staff, comfy bed, Jakarta on your doorstep! It's a budget hotel, and the surrounding area is full of hawker food stalls and backpacker bars. If those are the kind of things you want to see/do, then stay here!

Chic Hotel with Style”

enjoyable. the staff are friendly and helpful, nothing is a problem. the food in the cafe is great and you can get a good coffee. free internet, but only one computer available to guests, but no problems here. my room was compact but nice,with slide card to gain entrance to both lifts and room, so nobody can just go upstairs without your security card or key.restaurants nearby, and i purchased two shirts for only $7 each across the road, and shoes looked real cheap too. i would stay there again, only thing is, it is so far from the jakarta airport, which can take three hours in a taxi to get to the hotel (jakarta has a traffic problem); other than this -- great. i had to leave night before to get back to airport due to extreme flooding in central jakarta, so don't stay here if it is the rainy season, as the street in front was flooded both ends.

Strategic location for business and shopping”

Superb for business visit and family vacation to Jakarta. Easy access to all nice place around Jakarta. at Jalan Sabang most happening eating place at night and day.Worth for money.

NIce and clean hotel with modern interior”

I was very satisfied with everything in this hotel. Nice and clean room, bathroom with rainshower, many tv cable channel, easy access to main road and busway, and many dining choices at jalan sabang. The hotel interior are very nice and modern. The wifi connection is not so good though. But overall, I would definitely stay here again.

Great location & good service”

the hotel is located in the city area and just about 10-15 mins drive away from the main shopping malls (eg. grand indonesia shopping town, plaza indonesia & thamrin city). along the streets, you can find good restaurants either asian or western. if you want to have local food, you can find lots of them along the streets. however, please note that this is budget hotel so you don't expect spacious bedroom and washroom. good thing are that the hotel is clean and the hotel workers are all very friendly. you definitely feel at home. do try to stay in this hotel when you visit jakarta.

Nice simple hotel”
