It took me more than 2 1/2 hours from the airport to the hotel. Friday evening and rain, apparently disaster for Jakarta traffic. But I had to hotel car, which was comfortable. Rooms are nice and big, yes maybe no flat TV, but I think that the old TVs are better anyway. Internet is not great, but in the top... more

I stayed at the Shangri La Jakarta on a recent business trip In one simple word, this hotel is avoidable I guess in the 80's this was probably a fancy place. Now its just jaded, faded and should be retired The check in process is smooth and security as with all Jakarta hotels, appears to be high The faded feel... more

Located close to the business district the Shangri-La is an oasis among Jakarta's chaotic traffic. Rooms are very spacious with all amenities you expect in an hotel of this category (however TV sets should be upgraded to flat-panels). Decoration is sober and elegant. Staff is extremely helpful and efficient, most of it speaking pretty good English. The buffet on the... more

With Jakarta being what it is its nice to get behind the barricades and relax a little. This hotel is so relaxing for its perimeter security and garden space once inside. The fine dining restaurant is quite over the top in its granduer but perhaps a bit in the kitch side. Stunning matre d, boring grand piano playing, rich cusine,... more

The Shangri-La Jakarta is by far the best city hotel I have ever stayed in. I stayed there after one night at the Sheraton Bandara in the fine dining restaurant because of a flight delay which you can read about on the Sheraton Bandara page which is the 66th hotel out of 126 hotels in Jakarta. This hotel was so... more

Stayed one night on a brief business trip from Bali. Arrived at Soekarno Hatta International airport (CGK) on Mandala Air, safe and sound. Elected to not use the hotel's airport transfer service and save money by getting transport at CGK arrivals. Used the service counter of Blue Bird, with a clean and spacious Toyota Kijang Innova for 250,000 direct to... more
