Choska Residence

The hotel is conveniently located from the shopping malls which we were able to just walk over from our location. The beds were really comfortable and the rooms were really clean. Overall, cosy and homey.

Choska is in a quiet backstreet in an otherwise manic part of the city. It's stylish, with good facilities (including a lift). The common areas are great and the roof terrace is a real oasis (even though the rooftop cafe isn't open). My windowless room was comfy with plenty of space and ideal for my needs. The staff were friendly and helpful and keep the place very clean. Breakfast is provided via vouchers valid at an interesting cafe across the road. The hotel will look after your luggage after checkout, which is helpful. I'd certainly consider staying here again.

I love how strategic it is as it is located only less than 1km to malls like Grand Indonesia, Plaza Indonesia, Thamrin City and Tanah Abang. It has everything in a room, so it is convenient. The rooftop is definitely the highlight of the stay: it is so BEAUTIFUL especially at night. It comes with breakfast too, what a catch with such affordable price. I stayed twice here, when we needed to have a place to stay before going to Bandung, and the next one is when we were back again in Jakarta, quite satisfied with both experiences.

The location was very strategic. Walking distance (10 -15 min) to 3 different malls (Plaza Indonesia, Grand Indonesia & Thamrin City Mall). Easy to get grab/gojek/etc if needed. There's many street food along the way to the mall. 3 convenience stores available nearby (Lawson, Alfamart & Indomaret). The interior of the place is modern & clean. Room is small (no window) but enough neccesity & comfortable for resting. Staff was very friendly & you can always ask them for help.There's a rooftop with city view where you can chill. If you are in a budget & you want a very affordable + strategic stay, then this is a perfect place for you. I would definitely come here again soon.

The staff made this property for me! I lost my purse in the morning before my check in and they rang round and did lots of research to try and help me, eventually texting me after we checked out to let us know they found it so we could go and collect. They were very welcoming and helpful throughout from the reception staff to the cleaners and floor staff. The location is very central and within walking distance to main areas including lots of restaurants, local markets and the big shopping centres. It’s a shame the cafe on the top floor wasn’t open when we were there as it looked so good but you can still sit up there and the view is amazing, you should definitely check it out if you stay. In terms of the room, we have both stayed in rooms without windows before and spent most of our time out so we didn’t really notice any issue, the ladder would be an issue for those who are older/less mobile. It’s a cool room that I would say is more suitable for a young couple or people used to travelling.
