What benefits to expect when you stay at Aloft Jakarta Wahid Hasyim as a Marriott Bonvoy Titanium or Platinum Elite member?
The Aloft Jakarta Wahid Hasyim opened in 2017 with a total of 180 rooms. This property usually requires 5,000 to 10,000 points per night for award stays.
Location
The hotel is located in central Jakarta. The immediate area outside the hotel felt fairly safe.
- 10 mins drive to Grand Indonesia mall
- 40 mins drive to Halim Perdanakusuma International Airport (HLP)
- 45 mins drive to Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK)
Arrival
I arrived from the airport at 9.30am and was checked in immediately upon arrival!
Although I was not offered an upgrade, I think it is fantastic to be offered early check-in without even making a prior request.
Standard Room
Room 1005 is 28sqm / 301sqft in size.
Except for the bathroom, the bedroom has the standard layout of most Aloft hotels.

Welcome drinks/amenities
Platinum members and above receive two complimentary drinks (including fresh juices, non-alcoholic) per stay. As a Titanium member, I also received some desserts as a welcome amenity.
Daily unlimited coffee/tea
Platinum members and above can have complimentary unlimited coffee/tea sent directly to the room all day, every day.
I think this is a fantastic elite member benefit that is unheard of in other hotels under the Aloft brand; almost like the butler service that you would get with premium brands like The St. Regis!
Breakfast
Breakfast is complimentary for Platinum members and above. It was held as a buffet at Nook restaurant.
Breakfast quality and variety was good for a hotel at this price point.
Other facilities
The swimming pool is located on the same floor as Nook restaurant. It is covered and has privacy grills installed around it as the hotel is located very close to other buildings.
