The verdict

Who's travelling?

Pick a traveller type to re-weight the scores and re-rank the rooms around what you actually care about.

Read it your way

Pullman Jakarta Indonesia is a central Thamrin hotel featuring spacious rooms decorated with Indonesian Wayang puppet motifs and contemporary art installations. Guests consistently praise the attentive service, breezy check-in with cold towels and welcome juice, and the comprehensive breakfast buffet with sushi and local dishes. However, soundproofing allows street noise from zipping motorbikes to filter in at night, and bathroom water pressure can fluctuate between cold and burning hot. 1613103
