Aside from the multitude of dining options, the hotel will be close to sightseeing and leisure spots such as the Medan Merdeka, Mesjid Istiqlal, Museum Bahari (Maritime Museum), Museum Nasional (National Museum) and the Museum Sejarah Kota Jakarta (Jakarta History Museum).
“An exciting time to introduce the Swissôtel brand into Indonesia”
“This is such an exciting time to introduce the Swissôtel brand into Indonesia and particularly Jakarta to complement the group’s growing portfolio of city and resort destinations throughout the region,” said Garth Simmons, COO AccorHotels Indonesia – Malaysia – Singapore.

Currently, the brand has more than 30 hotels around the world with flagship properties including Swissôtel The Bosphorus in Istanbul, Swissôtel The Stamford in Singapore and Swissôtel Krasnye Holmy in Moscow.
In 2017, Jakarta was dubbed as one of the 10 fastest-growing tourism cities by the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC). The property is expected to become a new landmark in the city with its prime location in the centre of commercial and upscale housing.
