Conceived as a contemporary haven of relaxation in the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, Alila Jakarta offers a cool retreat for young urbanities, executives, couples on romantic getaways and other travelers. Sitting on prime real estate in central Jakarta, the Alila puts guests near landmarks such as the Presidential Palace and the business district, and combines clean, modern lines with abstract-minimalist interior. Even its name, Alila, means "surprise" in Sanskrit, which suitably describes the reactions of guests.
The eclectic Buzz Caf� serves international cuisine, and the Space Lounge provides quiet spots for relaxing and sipping spirits. In August 2005, the hotel's stylish Shanghai Storm will open, serving a la carte Cantonese and Schezuan cuisines. The Alila's mybodygym and spa@mybodygym feature a pool and range of leisure services, and kids will enjoy having their own pool.

This Jakarta hotel features meeting rooms that can handle up to 500 guests, business center, and ballroom for 300 guests for weddings, buffet dinners and social events.

Other amenities include an airport shuttle, cell phone and computer rentals, floor butlers, Internet access throughout the building, limousine and Town Car services, and 24-hour room service.

The 23-story Alila's 175 contemporary air-conditioned guestrooms and 16 suites feature minimalist d�cor, high-speed Internet access, gorgeous views of Jakarta, balconies, bathrobes, cable television, CD players, coffeemakers, safes and Internet access.

A destination unto itself that made the cover of the international Interior Design magazine, the Alila Jakarta paints a portrait of guests coming to see and be seen, international corporate travelers tapping away on laptops or hob-knobbing with counterparts, romantic couples strolling hand in hand through the lobby, and other leisure travelers soaking up the ambience.
