THE LATEST hotel collaboration between Agung Sedayu Group, Indonesia’s largest property developer, and ARTOTEL Group (AG) presents a premium urban stay experience at PIK2, marking the arrival of a new international-standard portfolio in the integrated tourism destination of Pantai Indah Kapuk (PIK), specifically at PIK 2.
According to Eduard Rudolf Pangkerego, Chief Operating Officer of AG, stated during the press conference for the opening of Golden Tulip Essential PIK 2 Jakarta on Thursday, (10/16), 2025, said that the opening of this hotel is part of their commitment to continue providing properties that are relevant to the needs of today’s travelers and contribute to the growth of Indonesian tourism on the international stage.
“This hotel allows us to leverage our expertise in the Indonesian hospitality industry to develop new tourist and business destinations in Jakarta, such as PIK 2, built by Agung Sedayu Group. Strategically located in the rapidly growing Tokyo Riverside PIK 2 residential area, the hotel offers flexible and comfortable accommodation options, ideal for business trips, leisure, and family vacations, with quick access to the PIK area’s shopping, culinary, and entertainment centers,” he said.
But when asked about the nature of the collaboration, Eduard replied, through the international hotel brand of Louvre Group (LG), which we have entrusted to manage in Indonesia, we aim to provide a modern, enjoyable, and international-standard accommodation experience, in keeping with the spirit of PIK 2 as a new icon for Jakarta’s business and tourism hub. The existing collaboration between AG and LG on this property has not yet expanded into operations, only sales, marketing, and distribution. However, future operations are still under discussion.
Meanwhile, Georges Michel Sirguey, Chief Operating Officer of Amantara, Agung Sedayu Group, added that as an international-standard waterfront city, PIK 2 reflects the vision of Agung Sedayu Group and Salim Group to create a destination that unites residential, commercial, culinary, recreational, and MICE activities within a single integrated ecosystem.
“The presence of Golden Tulip Essentials PIK 2, managed by ARTOTEL Group, enhances the area’s hospitality landscape by offering a premium and accessible accommodation experience, catering to a diverse range of guests, from daily business travelers to weekenders seeking a variety of lifestyle experiences in PIK,” he said.
He further explained that the presence of the Golden Tulip Essential PIK 2 Jakarta Hotel aligns with the increasing demand for rooms from events held at the Nusantara International Convention & Exhibition (NICE PIK 2). As you are aware, NICE PIK 2 has become a leading venue for national and international events. Therefore, he stated, the opening of this hotel is a strategic step to provide more accommodation options for both local and international tourists visiting PIK.
Likewise, Garna Sobhara, General Manager of Golden Tulip Essential PIK 2, said that the newly opened hotel, with a modern-minimalist concept, in the Ishikawa Tower, Tokyo Riverside, features approximately 254 rooms ranging from studios to two-bedrooms.
He explained that, speaking of the domestic market, this area is already experiencing 98% occupancy this weekend. However, market enthusiasm for Golden Tulip Essential PIK 2 is overwhelming, with nearly 100% occupancy this weekend. Grand Tulip Essential PIK 2 has plans to add approximately 250 more rooms next year by February 2026.
“Upon arrival, guests are welcomed with a check-in experience that includes the option of painting in the lobby. Regarding service, we strive to maintain a flexible approach, aligning with the standards of other ARTOTEL hotels. Our goal is to cater to the diverse needs of our guests and ensure their satisfaction,” Garna Sobhara concluded. [traveltext.id]
