A COLLABORATION between the Kawan Lama Group and Sinar Mas Land has finally opened ARTOTEL Living World Kota Wisata Cibubur, the first boutique hotel directly integrated with a shopping and entertainment center in East Jakarta and Bogor.
The hotel is managed by the ARTOTELl Group and is expected to become a new attraction in this rapidly developing area, with its Integrated, One-Stop Destination concept.
According to Theresia Setiadjaja, Director of Mall Operations Kawan Lama Group, at the opening ceremony and press conference on Thursday (08/21), 2025, said the hotel’s presence is part of the development agenda of PT Sahabat Kota Wisata, a joint venture between Kawan Lama Group and Sinar Mas Land.
“This boutique hotel is directly connected to the shopping center through access on the ground floor. Visitors can shop, dine, enjoy entertainment, and relax comfortably without having to move from one location to another. The main advantage of this hotel is its integrated concept with the Living World Kota Wisata shopping center, which allows guests to stay, shop, dine, and enjoy entertainment without having to leave the area,” she said.
Theresia Setiadjaja explained that we are optimistic that this integration will provide a practical and memorable experience, both for business and family recreation.
Meanwhile, Sinar Mas Land’s CEO of Retail and Hospitality, Fariyanto N. Sonda, stated that this project has been in development for seven years as a strategy to strengthen the Kota Wisata Cibubur area, which has been in development since 1996.
“Changes in lifestyle and consumer spending behavior have driven the emergence of mixed-use developments. This hotel targets the family, staycation, business, and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) segments,” he affirmed.
He added that with its superior regional integration, accessibility, and differentiation through art and lifestyle, ARTOTEL Living World Kota Wisata Cibubur is projected to become a prime destination for residents of eastern Jakarta and Bogor. “We hope that this collaboration with ARTOTEL Group and Kawan Lama Group can provide added value to the community while simultaneously encouraging sustainable regional growth,” Fariyanto elaborated.
Likewise, Eduard Rudolf Pangkerego, COO of ARTOTEL Group, stated, we are very proud to have collaborated with two major Indonesian companies, Kawan Lama Group and Sinar Mas Land, to present a hotel that brings a new lifestyle to East Jakarta, particularly in the Kota Wisata area of Cibubur.
“From the beginning of development, we have realized our partners’ desire to have a hotel that is not only a one-stop destination with a shopping mall, but also provides a new and modern lifestyle through our main brand, ARTOTEL. Therefore, we are confident that ARTOTEL Living World Kota Wisata Cibubur will be an accommodation and meeting place that can reach all market segments, from families and business people to young people,” he pointed out.
ARTOTEL Living World Kota Wisata Cibubur, he continued, has 11 floors with 196 rooms (Studio 24, Studio 38, Studio 52). Facilities include: Two SITRO All Day Dining restaurants and DE’ATTIC Rooftop Café, an infinity pool and gym, a Grand Ballroom with a capacity of 800 people, and six meeting rooms for up to 200 people.
“This project represents a significant opportunity to expand the market in Jakarta’s buffer zone. This hotel is not simply integrated with a mall; we have designed it as a lifestyle destination. The presence of ARTSPACE, a contemporary art gallery, is also expected to boost the creative industry in East Jakarta,” Eduard noted.
He added that with ARTSPACE as an art gallery space specializing in contemporary art, we hope this hotel will stimulate the arts and creative industries and provide a platform for young people to work and gather here.”
However, when asked about promotions during the hotel’s opening, Eduard R. Pangkerego immediately replied, “specifically for the opening period, ARTOTEL Living World Kota Wisata Cibubur is offering a special stay promotion valid from August 21 to September 30, 2025, with a special rate of IDR850,000 per night.”
ARTOTEL Group has a wide selection of brands: ARTOTEL, Dafam, Maxone, Rooms Inc., and is also a strategic partner of the Louvre Group in Indonesia, managing and developing franchise brands including Kyriad, Golden Tulip, and Royal Tulip, with a total of 100 hotels and 10,000 guest rooms spread throughout Indonesia.
