About The Hermitage Jakarta

Art Deco grandeur tells century-old tales in Jakarta's most sophisticated district
In the leafy embassy district of Menteng, this 1920s grande dame holds court in spectacular Art Deco splendour. The heritage building has witnessed nearly a century of Indonesia's history, while inside, modern luxury has been woven thoughtfully into the historic fabric. Marble corridors lead to hidden courtyards, and a rather spectacular rooftop bar offers front-row seats to Jakarta's twinkling skyline. The location is brilliant too - you're just a stone's throw from the city's best antique markets and designer boutiques.
From $70 per person/per night

Property details

The property

Art Deco elegance reigns supreme in the public spaces, from the gleaming marble lobby to the vintage-styled restaurant. The afternoon tea service in the lounge is a proper affair - complete with silver tiered stands and local twists on classic treats. Hidden courtyards provide peaceful retreats from the city's bustle, while the rooftop bar has become quite the spot for Jakarta's social set.

The rooms

High ceilings and period features set the tone, while contemporary comforts ensure modern luxury. Classic Indonesian teakwood furniture sits alongside plush beds, and the bathrooms are properly indulgent affairs with deep soaking tubs. Some rooms boast private terraces - rather lovely for evening digestifs - while others offer views over Menteng's tree-lined boulevards.

Why we love it

Why we love it

The rooftop bar serves up Jakarta's most theatrical sunset views alongside properly made gin and tonics.
Insiders tip

Insiders Tip

The building played a fascinating role during Indonesia's independence movement - ask the concierge about the secret meetings held in the basement.
Something to think about

Something to think about

The magnificent frangipani trees in the courtyard are over 80 years old, their flowers still used daily in traditional welcome rituals.
