Review: Mercure Convention Centre Ancol, Jakarta

This hotel is a re-branding of an old Indonesia government hotel and this shows a little in some places.

This best thing about the hotel is its seaside location. Staying here it's possible to forget the yucky city lying behind you. However, for business trips the location will mean long travel times to anywhere in South Jakarta, where the cbd is.

The hotel itself is OK really. The standard non-seamier rooms are on the small side and even though they do have pretty cool city views, it is much better to go for the ocean-view rooms. Not only to they have an ocean view, they are also much larger.

The hotel has a nice pool which has some water slides for kids.

Service in the hotel is pretty average.
