"House of Tugu is the latest hotel from the Tugu Group, which I have frequented many times.
This one is truly the masterpiece... the decor and mood is otherworldly. The room is spacious and very comfy. Breakfast was amazing and I really like their coffee.
Service is something that all Tugu hotels share, always warm, genuine, and caring. To me, this is the perfect weekend getaway hotel."
"Perfect location, quiet rooms, kitchen and dining room to eat take out/prepare simple meals/entertainment in cafe bar ajoining hostel, friendly staff, clean, safe, communal area "
"Staffs were great and were multilingual. Great courtesy provided throughout. Could do with more on deck staffing as breakfast can be very crowded. Hats off to the staff for always being so kind and courteous. Overall stay was comfortable. Lift availability can alter sides but this is not an issue."
"Good hotel ,with friendly staff. Clean and good value of money, cheap compared with other hotels.
Only the breakfast needed to improve.
Highly recommended "
"Hotel location is ideal ,food centre 2nd flr, bank and proximity to Chinatown. Surrounding area safe.
Maintenance of hotel is poor apparently due to lack of experience staff and regular inspection. "
"Internet connection more OFF than ON.
VERY CONFUSING: 2 D’primas in close proximity. ITC Mangga Dua and WTC Mangga Dua. I accidentally booked an extra night at the wrong one. Had to pay twice because I didn’t want to move.
OBNOXIOUS placement of receptacle. Instead of putting it where it can easily be reached, I had to crawl on the floor like I was changing oil and plug my converter in. Plugging and unplugging things from the bed could be dangerous because someone could gouge their eye on...

"A Home Away from Home – Unforgettable Hospitality at Best Western Mangga Dua, Jakarta
After a 28-hour flight, the warmth of Best Western Mangga Dua instantly erased my exhaustion. From the gatekeeper’s welcome to the bellman’s gracious help, every moment felt special.
The true highlight was DEDE at the front desk. Recognizing my stay from 10 years ago, he welcomed me like family, upgraded my room to a suite, and sent fresh fruits—an incredibly thoughtful touch. His kindness continued throughout my stay, always ensuring my comfort.
Beyond DEDE, every staff member, from housekeeping to the breakfast team, provided one-on-one service with genuine warmth—never expecting tips, only focused on guest satisfaction.
I’ve traveled extensively, but I’ve never experienced such heartfelt hospitality. If this is how Best Western Mangga Dua treats its guests, I don’t just want to visit again—I’d love to live here!
Thank you, DEDE! Thank you, Best Western! Thank you, Jakarta!"
