I was there for a family trip/ holiday in Oct 09. To me, the hotel is clean enough for my standard and breakfast is superbly tasty! Room is spacious and bed is comfy. Although some of the rooms are without window, but believe me, because of the large space of the room, it doesn't make you feel suffocated.

Overall, the experience of staying in this hotel has made my trip to Jakarta even more memorable that my husband and I are making another trip there in May and we will be staying in Orchardz Hotel again!

Just to warn fellow travellers.
It's sunday morning 8am, we came back from the jazz festival at 2am and guess what, the music is blasting from the 11th floor and it is a...church service.
Yes if you stay in this hotel, first don't stay on the 6 floor it's on top of the karaoke and you can hear it, i asked to change room and ....on the 10 floor beware of the deluxe exec room as on top of you every Sunday you will hear some priest and the music, unless you like going to service of course.
Apart from that it's fine, but the hotel seems to like more money coming from celebration and so on than from its sleeping customers.
I asked to make a complaint and am still waiting from anyone to actually care...it's 8:47am!

Stayed here for 2 nights from 3 to 5 October 2009. It is located near Mangga Dua shopping area and Ancol theme park, but not close enough to walk. From my room, I could see Mangga Dua Square and Ancol. It's right behind or beside (depending on where you are coming from) the Sheraton Media Hotel. Why I like this hotel is because the price is so reasonable for a hotel at that location.

Service - Check in and check out was attended to by courteous staff. And was promptly attended to despite 2-3 people right infront of me.
Room - big and clean. Tea/coffee making facilities available.
Toilet - big and clean. No bath tub but has a shower room.
Breakfast - Not bad at all. Quite a reasonable selection - white rice with 2 main dishes; fried rice or noodles; egg station; porridge; bread; 3 types of juice; hot drinks.
Others - karaoke rooms available
Parking - ample parking space
Location - by the main road so easy to get public transport like taxi, bus or bajaj (the 3-wheel bikes)
Rate - very, very good

I highly recommend this hotel for those looking for a medium class hotel.

I often travel to pontianak for business trip , usually i stay in hotel kapuas palace . Last week , 24 Feb 2008 i stay in Orchardz hotel which is located in jln gajahmada (city area of pontianak) , it was a new hotel and location is very strategic. I like minimalist design of the hotel , its room and lobby, was quite suprised it was just a three star hotel , i thought it should be a 4-5 star hotel.

Stayed in deluxe room which is on the 7th floor, room is spacious and cozy with in box safety box, flat tv and the most important it has free wifi :)

The receptionist told me that this is a wi-fi hotel , free usage of internet access in every corner , anyway i very pleased with this hotel and its service. Worth every penny ! for sure i would come back and stay in this hotel again next month :)
