Raffles Hotels & Resort will strengthen its Asian portfolio with the opening of Raffles Jakarta early next year.
Located in the heart of Jakarta’s central business district, the hotel will be part of a new mixed-use development - Ciputra Artpreneur Centre and close to a number of business and leisure destinations.
Peter French, president of Raffles Hotels & Resorts said: “Jakarta is the economic and cultural seat of one of Asia’s fastest growing economies with an increasingly sophisticated dining and entertainment landscape, and Raffles is delighted to be part of this growth."
Raffles Jakarta will feature 173 rooms and suites, making up some of the largest in the city with starting sizes around 60 sqm. Guests can also look forward to three restaurants and two bars, including a Raffles classic, The Writer’s Bar.
Meeting and events spaces will range from a private boardroom to the 2,500 sqm Grand Dian Ballroom.
The Raffles Spa will provide a range of massage and wellness treatments in its six treatment rooms. Other leisure facilities will include a choice of swimming pools, a fitness centre, yoga terrace, tennis courts and jogging track in the gardens. Art will also play a major role in the new hotel, with particular homage being paid to renowned Indonesian artist Hendra Gunawan, who’s works will be displayed and celebrated by the hotel’s dedicated art concierge.
The hotel is currently accepting bookings for stays beginning from February 1, 2015 and to celebrate its opening, guests staying from February 1 to April 30 will enjoy 25 per cent off the best available rate.
The group has also announced plans for further openings in Jeddah, Sharm-el-Sheikh and Warsaw over the next few years.
