“just an average hotel....”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

stay here for work for 6 days during the flood in jakarta.
first, the breakfast almost the same everyday which made me bored....
2nd, there's a problem with internet connection. you could only use free wi-fi internet connection on the lobby for 10 minutes and for internet connection in the room, you must log in and pay for it (Rp. 90k for a day). i think almost every hotel these day give free internet connection so if you're coming here for work and gonna use internet connection, this hotel might be our of question.
the tv i got in my room was an old tv, which is taking a lot of space and the tv also bad one, dont have any clear channel.
when i was staying the air conditioner was shut down for a while after the electric was shut down and i have to call them 3 times till they turn it on.
the water heater often not working at night so if you want to take a hot shower, do it before 9 pm.

“Did you heard about the Word?”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 19, 2012

Cheap? yes it is compare to an Expensive Hotels with 5 stars butttttt..... I always had a great time here. Hotel Cemara simply have one of the best small hotel. I have much better experience here than hotels that worth four times. Everyone has been trained professionally and the room is comfortable. Dont want to spend much money but you want a great hotel? try the Executive Superior. You wont regret it dammit.

“Mid Level Convenient - 3.5 Stars Hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed August 4, 2012

I made a review for hotel cemara before.
This is one of its hotel. I think they have two hotels with the same name, and located not far from each other.

This should be a safe choice for you in Jakarta.
The niche is the location of this hotel. It's in the very center of Jakarta.

The service and venue is good.

“Underated- a great place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 1, 2012 via mobile

We were initially staying for one night which we had pre-paid (£30 for a double) through agoda. We stayed for two nights longer paying roughly the same with the hotel.

It was clean, good aircon, comfortable beds and had a great rooftop pool (see the pics).

You are a 15 min max walk to gambir station where the airport bus (great value, comfortable, air con, 20000) drops you off. To head to the hotel- stand under the trainline with the national
Monument behind you and head away from the station following the train lines. It's easy to find with the most basic maps.

The staff were really polite, great value, a nice place to stop within 5 minutes of jalan jaksa. Enjoy :-)
