JW Marriott Hotel, Jakarta

Noted for its central location and easy access to many embassies, the JW Marriott is a sanctuary of understated luxury and comfort—the perfect tonic for businesspeople seeking respite from the fast-moving and often chaotic world outside. As befitting one of Jakarta’s finest 5-star hotels, the rooms are remarkably spacious. Great attention is given to detail, and sleep should come easy since only the finest quality bedding materials are used. Dining here is a memorable experience—don’t miss the sumptuous buffet which is put on daily at the magnificent Sailendra Restaurant. Epicureans will also find much to like at the hotel’s Japanese and Chinese restaurants. Facilities are second to none as you might expect, and include a superb spa and health club where you can recharge your batteries. – Martin Jenkins
