We arrived at the hotel at 10am and there was a queue at the counter. It seemed to take the counter staff a fairly long time to check people in and out, there were only 3 staff working at the counter. When it came round to our turn, the counter staff was perfectly polite and friendly but informed us that our room would not be ready until the afternoon. We left our bags and returned in the afternoon. Our room was on the 5th floor and we received an upgrade to a Starwood preferred guest room. The room was very spacious and quite cosy, with a comfortable bed, desk and ample cupboard space. Dressing gown and bedroom slippers included, and I really loved the powerful hairdryer. Superb power shower and lots of usable space beside the sink.

They don't provide toothbrushes though, so you would either have to request this or bring one along with you. The only thing which is not good about the room is that if you can one facing the main street (which is the one we got), it gets noisy in the morning with all the traffic. I'm not sure how the other side of the hotel is like, but there is a lot of construction along the main road (I think they are building an overpass).

Breakfast was decent, a good spread of all sorts of food and attentive service from the staff. I thought overall that the hotel was nicely decorated and had a warm feel to it instead of the hollow caverns that many hotels have for lobbies. The property is old and hence the ceilings are lower but they've made it plush so it feels warm and welcoming. Our check out was very efficient as we paid in advance and it was no problem getting a taxi to the airport. We thought it was good value for money and would stay here again.

My 2nd stay at the Le Meridien in downtown Jakarta once again has been excellent.

Quality room that met my expectations and an excellent buffett breakfast with good choices in an comfortable environment.

Try to ask for a room away from the downtown traffic but even then, you hardly hear/notice the noise even if youa re facing the main highway/road.

Will def. be staying here again on my next business trip. Check in was promot and fast. Security is as expected in Jakarta as you enter the hotel and is a norm.

I stayed on official trip in dec for 3 days and found this place real very fast in response . Their service quality was excellent . The negative is the infra as this is now a very old hotel and doesn't look very attractive . However we were give spl floor being spg members and we found it ok but rooms were small . Overall the service was so good that we didn't feel to much about other issues . Overall a good choice if you look for Le meridian at good price

Best breakfast buffet ! It's fresh and many choices to choose from!

Toilet & bedroom is clean, no bed bugs or dust mite.

Very strategic location to the shopping mall. Take a cab to the nearest mall is 10 minutes :)

And also free Wifi :) stable and fast connection
