Finally got to stay here. The location is very strategic. I deliberately wanted to take the kids on a holiday and try public transportation in Jakarta. The distance to Benhil MRT is only 200 meters. There are also a lot of places to eat, restaurants, and supermarkets around. The check-in and check-out process is fast and friendly.
I really like the interior of the hotel, from entering the lobby to the room, everything is aesthetic. The cleanliness is very good, fragrant in every room. Alhamdulillah got a room upgrade and the view is also cool. In my opinion, the breakfast variety is a bit limited but we also get a free a la carte menu. Although the variety is limited, it doesn't feel like anything failed.
There are 2 swimming pool facilities but we made a wrong strategy, we should have swam on the Rooftop first on the first day because it turned out that the swimming pool that is integrated with Cafe Cali opens in the afternoon, so the next day we didn't have time to swim on the Rooftop because we only stayed one night. It's also a bit difficult to find a seat when the swimming pool on the 5th floor is crowded with visitors.
Maybe because this also seems like a business hotel, so there are less facilities for children other than the swimming pool & there is no kind of kids activity as far as I know. But because we were tired from walking around all day riding the MRT & Trans Jakarta, so the children were happy just by swimming. Thx The Orient Hotel for your hospitality..hopefully there will be another chance to stay there. 😊
