I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Gran Melia Hotel in Jakarta, and I can confidently say that it exceeded all expectations. From the moment I arrived, the experience was flawless. The hotel’s design is simply stunning – a perfect blend of modern elegance and sophisticated comfort. Every corner of the property reflects impeccable taste, creating a welcoming atmosphere that felt like a luxurious home away from home. The quality of food was absolutely top-notch. Whether it was a delicious breakfast or a fine dining experience, each meal was a testament to the high standards the hotel upholds. The breakfast buffet, in particular, was a highlight. There was a wide variety of options, from freshly prepared international dishes to local delicacies – all incredibly flavorful and beautifully presented. What truly made my stay special, however, was the exceptional service. The staff at Gran Melia went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable. I would like to give a special mention to Rudi, who took the extra care to make sure my breakfast experience was nothing short of perfect. His warm hospitality and attention to detail made me feel like I was being taken care of like family. The entire process, from check-in to check-out, was smooth and efficient, and I was always greeted with a smile. I can not recommend Gran Melia Jakarta enough – it’s truly a five-star experience in every sense. I can’t wait to return!

The hospitality of the staffs was unforgettable. They were very friendly and always greeted me by my name. They were very attentive especially the person in charge in the pool area. They served delicious meals in both breakfast area and in-room dining. I got a free room upgrade which I really appreciated.

The Gran Melia is a stunning hotel, its huge and the hotel is beautiful. The staff were incredible and dealt with all my requests promptly. I even asked for some flowers for my girlfriend last minute before I arrived and when I turned up there were roses in my room and a tiramisu. The staff at the front desk were exceptional. All the staff made me feel special and safe. The hotel had a great vibe and provided music in the evenings. The cleaners did a good job and room service was more than often good. The room facilities were fantastic, the whole room and view was stunning. It was truly a special place to stay.

Me and my son were there for a staycation since we did not have plan to go abroad or out of town. Upon checked in, we got a pleasent surprise from the Guest Experience as a selected guest to be upgraded to suite and receive complimentary snack in the pool restaurant (I suspected because my son wore an elf hat 😁), thanks you so much! On top of that because the next day was my birthday, the Guest Experience sent a birthday cake to our room, another nice surprise! Aside from the perks, I think Melia can turn into a family staycation destination as it has nice ambience, food and staffs are so friendly, by perhaps add few more children attraction. All in all, lovely stay ♥️

So, this is my second review of this property as we stayed here twice during our time in Jakarta. Both times we found the staff to be very attentive to our needs. When we traveled to the Airport on our last day, they packed breakfast to-go because we left so early in the morning. This hotel is in a great location and easy to access from the main highways in Jakarta. Our room was spacious and clean, with a wonderful view of South Jakarta. The food choices in the lobby restaurant were vast offering Asian, Western, and European menu items. Our coffee cups were always full and there were multiple juice choices as well. The one thing that was especially impressive was the response to our criticisms from the first stay at the property. We were contacted by both the housekeeping supervisor and General Manager with regard to our observations. They expressed genuine concern for our complaints and made every effort to rectify these issues. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking for a location where you are their first priority.

First and foremost, my wife and I agree that the staff here was very pleasant. They were always welcoming and knew me by name. While we didn't utilize the spa services, we did enjoy room service, swam in the pool, and exercised in the fitness center. Our overall experience was great, we would definitely consider staying again in the future.

The best thing about this hotel are the staff. I had a wonderful few days and I’ll like to mention the staff friendliness and readiness to serve with a smile and they all went above and beyond to ensure I had a great stay. Special mention to Santun and Prihatin. I had a busy schedule and had to have my dinner at the lobby restaurant each night, both Santun and Prihatin were amazing 🩷🩷🩷

Really attentive and kind service from everyone in the hotel. Warm, welcoming and prompt every time. Beautiful spacious room (I got a suite upgrade) well appointed and practical. Only the older bathroom could be improved, but it was clean, functional and spacious. Nice breakfast buffet with huge selection and the Japanese restaurant (via room service) was very nice too.

The hotel is beautiful and has all the amenities needed: comfy beds, quiet rooms, friendly staff, pool, gym, restaurants, coffee bar. It is a bit older, but that doesn't matter. They manage to keep it really nice. Breakfast was excellent with a huge variety in different foods.
