Business hotels tend to blend into one another. 25hours Hotel Jakarta The Oddbird (District 8, SCBD Lot 28, Jl. Jend. Sudirman Kav 52-53, Jakarta; +62 21 72888888; 25hours-hotels.com) was clearly never interested in doing that. Perched high above SCBD, the property has carved out its own identity through eclectic design, vibrant dining concepts and an unmistakably creative spirit. And now, the appointment of Michael B. Gaehler marks a new chapter for the hotel as it continues to strengthen its position as one of Jakarta’s most distinctive lifestyle destinations.

For guests drawn to a more metropolitan aesthetic, the Urban Rooms are available as the 38-square-meter Medium Plus Urban and the 40-square-meter Large Urban, both featuring en-suite bathrooms. The 68-square-meter Extra Large Urban offers additional comfort with a separate living space and a spacious bathroom fitted with both a rain shower and bathtub.
For guests seeking a more luxurious and private space, two penthouses are available on the 52nd floor. Each features a generous entertainment area, dedicated dining and relaxation spaces, and floor to ceiling windows offering sweeping views. Beyond an overnight stay, these penthouses could also serve as venues for intimate gatherings and private social occasions.

Beyond its accommodations, the hotel’s culinary and social spaces further define its distinctive atmosphere. COPA Restaurant brings a contemporary approach to Latin American cuisine, with a menu centered around grilled meats, seafood and vegetables, complemented by a well-curated cocktail program. Nearby, The Oddbird Bar serves globally inspired cocktails with unexpected flavor combinations. Signature drinks include the Patagonia, a blend of arak, raspberry shrub and sparkling wine, alongside the tropical Copacabana, which combines rum, mango and citrus. Classic favorites such as the Old Fashioned, smoky Negroni and Espresso Martini are paired with bites including taco platters, empanadas and croquetas. For a more laid-back setting, Cabana by The Pool offers refreshing mocktails, craft beers and easygoing cocktails ranging from piña coladas to mojitos.
