Mega Kuningan, South Jakarta
Guest sentiment
A 317-room luxury business hotel in Jakarta's Mega Kuningan golden triangle, surrounded by embassies and corporate towers, known for its Sailendra breakfast buffet and highly rated 29th-floor Executive Lounge.
Last updated August 5, 2026
JW Marriott Hotel Jakarta sits in the upscale Mega Kuningan business district, encircled by embassies, corporate towers and neighbours like The Ritz-Carlton, making it a longtime favourite for business travellers and elite-status guests. It holds a 4.0 rating on TripAdvisor (roughly 2,000 reviews, ranked around #172 of 687 Jakarta hotels). Reviewers consistently single out two strengths: the Sailendra Restaurant breakfast buffet, repeatedly called one of the best in the city, and the 29th-floor Executive Lounge, praised for its panoramic skyline views, generous afternoon tea and evening cocktail spreads. Service earns warm praise, with staff described as attentive and quick to recognise returning and elite guests, though a few travellers note the experience can be inconsistent. Rooms are spacious and comfortable with marble bathrooms, but the recurring caveat is age: the hotel opened in 2001 and several guests feel it is dated and due for renovation, with occasional bathroom maintenance issues (slow drainage, flush problems). The central location is excellent for business and shopping but can mean heavy traffic, and the airport sits about an hour away. Overall a dependable, service-led luxury stay.

Upgraded to an 84 sqm 1-Bedroom Suite; rated service 9/10 and value 9/10. Praised the large Executive Lounge with panoramic views and the extensive Sailendra breakfast (9/10). Main gripe: the 2001 property feels dated and needs renovation.
