    Family with young children
    Two-Bedroom Deluxe
    Stayed 4 nights in January 2026

    “Taking young children is really great.”

    We booked a two-bedroom apartment with a kitchen, refrigerator, and a huge drying rack, which is very family-friendly for those with small children. Having a kitchen and refrigerator is very convenient for making milk and giving medicine; you can wash the bottles and freeze fresh milk. We also brought along the elderly, so having a living room is very convenient; we can chat together in the living room and play with the children. The rooms are quite spacious, and having two bathrooms is also convenient, with daily cleaning services. The location is excellent, with a bus stop right outside and the A entrance of the Bencoolen subway station across the street, so you won't get caught in the rain or sun, and it's quick to get to various attractions. The breakfast meets our needs, and the food is quite delicious. We encountered many European, American, and Indonesian families staying here with their children. Overall, the experience was great, the price-performance ratio is high, and there are many shopping centers and dining options nearby, with plenty of popular chain stores around.

    “I recommend it!”

    I stayed for 2 nights in a 2-bedroom room. The room was spacious and clean, and there was no stress from waiting for the elevator, which is common in hotels of this rank! The rooftop pool and gym were also sufficiently spacious. The only issue was the front desk service. There was an automatic check-in machine, but there was only one staff member available to handle luggage storage and early check-in inquiries, and since many guests did not use the automatic check-in, it was crowded.
