Monas hotels & places to stay

The hotel is big and have all required facilities for a diamond type of hotel. For people that really want and use such facilities, this hotel is the right hotel to stay. The breakfast and dinner are the best experience I had in this hotel. Just love the oxtail soup very much. I was told it is the best in Jakarta and quire famous too. try it, you will love it. Not so sure for the European friends though, but I know the taste is really asian taste. Nevertheless, have a sip and judge it. The selection of food in the buffet justify the price of 200K Rupiah per pax. I love the local kue and the fruits, they are fresh. The nearest tourist attraction is Monas - monumen national and the nearest mall will be a 5 min right to a place called Senen. The place call Atrium and it also has a theatre (cinema). I've been to another malled called Mangga Dua (20 min with 25K rupiah) and Blok M (25 min 30K).If you dont mind to travel to several places the hotel is ok with you. But if you are a shopaholic, I would think the best hotel would be one of the hotel in Jalan Sudirman.

very nice hotel located in the center of jakarta, near cultural and tourism places. atrium mall (commercial center) is just beside, and the hotel is near thamrin and other aeras... i got a spacious big nice room, with view of the city, facing "monas". nice buffet breakfirst with good choice. some will say hotel is little bit old (we got cockroach in the bathroom) but i got good service from hotel staff (very friendly and helpfull). great stay, good location and with agoda price, it is very nice!!! i will probably come back again...

went to jakarta to celebrate new year. purposely chose sriwijaya because of its location near to monument nasional (monas) so that i can just walk back to hotel instead of stranded in sea of people to get taxi. sriwijaya turns out more that what i expected. it is a old hotel but kept well maintained and the historical touch is in every corner of it. i felt that i was in the 60s. i arrived early morning and did not expect i was able to check in until 12 noon, but the front desk was kind enough to allow me to check in. but the mobile phone reception was bad in that room so we requested to change to another room the next morning. breakfast was good. they keep replenish the food. the choice was ok for me. overall i was very happy with this hotel

Location is perfect! It's situated in Monas area. Many great adjacent places to the hotel. You can find The State Palace, etc. Hotels foods are affordable and open for 24 hours. Breakfast is good. Tasty and vary. It may have too much various foods but plenty much to select foods, from light to heavy options. Indonesian foods here are tasty. I like this hotel very much. I stayed here for several nights before I moved to Jakarta for working and this hotel welcomed me very well. Staffs were very attentive and friendly. You will see they greet and smile at you regardless your nationality. I sometimes found some hotels which treated their guests differently based on the nationality but this hotel has the high professional standart to serve all their guests with equality. This hotel has spacious room while it is inexpensive.very value for money. Althought it is a compact hotel which is suitable for flash trip, business trip or for backpacking, this hotel offers a high standard for the cozy ambience. I stayed here as couple and it is perfect too. I felt my presence here because staffs treated me well. I saw many foreign tourists here and staffs gave them ample informations with friendliness. Security were very attentive as well. Overall, I would recommend all to stay at this hotel if you want to have a high standard of hospitality in a budget hotel with friendly staff, good location in Central Jakarta, tasty authentic Indonesian foods and cozy ambience for solo or couple travellers. Awesomeeeeee!!! P.s. Do not forget to ask staff for the room card usage. I found sometimes the light went off and then when I asked staffs, they informed me that they used smart card that you needed to recharge your card. Idk with the steps to charge the card but they changed the card immediately. You may charge it by asking how to do it to the staff.

This place was good. Near the biggest busway (transjakarta) station named Harmoni Central Busway. From this station you can go to many places with transjakarta, i think this station is in the center. Good location. you can walk to Monas (Monumen Nasional) also walk to Taman Prasasti Museum. There are windows at my room. Really nice... All the staffs were nice too.. they help me to print a doc.. just one paper.. really helpful...

Actually it is really cheap hotel. It is located in the good place and near trans jakarta bus stop and senen train station. There is many place to find food, start from the cheap one on the street until the expensive one. There is price and there is quality. It iis cheap, but not comportable hotel, it is dusty and smelly, also the bed is so hard. But if you are not really spend your time much at the hotel, it will be okay.
