JAKARTA (Yosefardi) – Opening on Monday 16 March 2015, Raffles Jakarta will stand as a beacon above the thriving commercial hub of Kuningan.

The hotel is exclusively linked to the new Ciputra Artpreneur Centre, a landmark development dedicated to the celebration of art and theatre at the heart of Jakarta’s golden triangle which opened last year.

The hotel’s soft opening brings Raffles’ portfolio to 12 hotels and resorts – from the flagship Raffles Hotel, Singapore, to China, Cambodia, the Philippines, Seychelles, Saudi Arabia, Dubai, Paris and most recently Istanbul.

Like its sister hotels, the stylish Le Royal Monceau – Raffles Paris and the newly opened Raffles Istanbul, Raffles Jakarta will be a celebration of artistry – and in particular a homage to the iconic Indonesian artist Hendra Gunawan. His legacy comes to life at Raffles Jakarta, where his works enhance the elegant interiors. The hotel’s Art Concierge will provide insights into his fascinating life.

The hotel’s 173 luxurious rooms and suites are some of the largest in Jakarta.
