The Ambhara is located in a leafy street near central Jakarta. Hotel facilities are relatively up to date including an array of restaurants, a nice cafe and gym with swimming pool. Rooms are in need of refurbishment, in particular bathrooms. Wifi service (which is not free) also needs to be updated. Friendly staff. The hotel offers a free shuttle service... More

The hotel is located tip of the south Jakarta. It has a few malls cross the street and is good to find variety of food. The hotel staff is generally nice but could improve English better. The room itself is outdated. I haven't seen the box tv for many years. The bathroom shower is not functioning well. The towels are... More

A little cut off from the airport. If you take the blue or the gold bird taxi service it will charge you enough that would make you think if your hotel cost you more of the taxi... LOL. But then it's a safe mode of commuting. The hotel looks like its a vintage form and nothing much is being done... More

If you have meetings in South Jakarta, this is probably the hotel of choice otherwise, you would be better off staying closer to the central district where the CBD is for much the same price. The traffic in the vicinity is crazy like anywhere else in this city. Hotel is old and tired. Check-in for 3 of us (on business)... More
