Hotel Travel Review May 2024

Been lurking for a while as I'm an infrequent mongerer but been doing p4p for over 10yrs in both Europe and SEA. I've been enjoying regular business trips to Jakarta for over 5 years and usually take the easy/lazy route of staying at Shang/Mulia and bringing the girls up from their respective bars. I know it is quite expensive for what you get but there are some real gems that you can find (e.g. IDR3m to 4m for a mid-20s spinner/gym bunny providing full GFE, speaks decent English and provides everything but anal) that you can enjoy at the bar/dance floor then for LT in the comfort of a very nice room).

To mix it up, I finally ventured out on my last visit and headed to the much-referenced Hotel Travel.

Highlights:
  • Took a grab there at 11pm (a bad choice of timing but more on that later) and found the entry on the left-hand side of the actual hotel.
  • Usual wrist tag (to pay for drinks at the end) at reception where they speak English
  • The venue is split into 3 areas – disco area, girls' lounge area, billiards area
  • You head to the disco area where there are metal high chairs and round tables in the middle where you can drink and watch the girls dance in lingerie but pretty lame and only popular with the locals who smoke like trains and make the whole experience less enjoyable.
  • The real action is the next room beyond where 50/60 girls are hanging around in groups with their mama-sans and their sofa/chairs. The majority could not be bothered and were talking amongst themselves and looked grumpy/drunk/tired/sad. I would say that the majority were 4/5s with no one above a 7.
  • Mama-sans were not too pushy and easy to swat away with a polite "I'm ok and will just look around".
  • Once I spotted a group with some potential, I asked the mama-san to bring girls that matched my taste. Using a laser pointer, the mama-san gives her suggestions. I picked one that was small, young, no baby body, and had a pretty face (round eyes are the thing for me). It was IDR375 for ST for 1 girl that I paid in cash to the mama-san on the spot. Best to bring some small notes in addition to the 100,000/50,000 notes as they have to find change which can take time.
  • The girl takes you upstairs to the many rooms. It is a nice sight to follow them up 😊
  • The rooms are ok with mirrors on the side, a double bed, a/c, and a shower.
  • They asked whether you want to buy a drink for the girl, which I did (IDR30,000?).
  • The girl showers and also washes your privates then its back to the bed.
  • Service is pretty basic with no kissing and covered BJ and FS, which is fine for me as I'm not a risk taker.
  • The girl I chose was pretty good at making the right noises, was pretty tight outside and inside, and I barely managed 3 positions before popping (another reason for not coming so late as I was quite tired by midnight when the deed took place)
  • Action over, it was back in the shower together and then a walk down the steps.
  • Honestly, if you don't like smoke then avoid this place during the late evenings.
Overall, great value for the actual girl/service but I will try to come at 7pm and see the difference.

On the next trip, I'll give Classic and Malio a try and compare.

"I've been enjoying regular business trips to Jakarta for over 5 years and usually take the easy/lazy route of staying at Shang/Mulia and bringing the girls up from their respective bars ..."

Hey,

If you get a chance, could you please provide some more advice/details on the girls that you've been meeting when you stay at the Shangri-La/Mulia in Jakarta. (That sounds more like my kind of thing.)

Do you meet the girls in the bars at the respective hotels or are there freelancer bars/clubs in close proximity to the hotels?

Is everything bareback or condom? Have you ever tried Seeking in Jakarta?

Which hotel do you prefer - the Shangri-La or Mulia?

I've never been to Jakarta, but I had the nice opportunity of dating three Indo girls when I was living in Hong Kong.

I found the Indo girls to be much better in better (GFE) than the beautiful Thai and Vietnamese girls.

Any info/advice would be appreciated ...

Hi @TokyoToo

The Shangri-la has a bar in the basement called BATS where the working girls wait for their clients whilst Mulia has a bar called CJs.

Historically, BATS was more popular with westerners whilst CJs was more popular with Asians (Japanese and Korean), but post COVID, BATS has waned in numbers of patrons and subsequently the quality of girls has also taken a hit. CJs is where the better, younger girls go. Therefore, girl action is better at Mulia. The bar and music is better at CJs too so it makes for a more fun night. Overall, CJs at Mulia is the better bet. Btw if you stay at these hotels, it grants free access to their respective bars. Outsiders need to pay an entry fee that includes a drink. You also need to check their opening times during the week as it's not 7 days a week.

I am risk averse and happy with using a condom for sex. Girls always give bbbjs but I've never asked for bareback so I don't know if it's available. I have a regular that I meet (one of the mid 20s gym bunnies) and as we have a good chemistry, I reckon she would do bareback in the heat of the moment but it requires time/effort to get them to relax that far.

As for the hotels themselves, Shangri-la is better in terms of overall design and quality of the room and service, but Mulia has better beds and breakfast selection. Both will give you a very comfortable night of sleep. Other consideration is their location and implications for traffic. The Shangri-la is closer to the centre so you waste less time if you want to head up north Jakarta where hotel travel/classic/malio are located.

Never tried seeking as I like to keep my mongering footprint to a minimum.

As for GFE in Indonesia, it's definitely good at these bars as you can interact with the girls at the bar and see how friendly they are over afew drinks and a chat.

Hope that helps.

Hi Fall

Can you please tell me about the process / pricing for picking up at Mulia?

I am staying there soon on Monday to Friday. I am aware CJs is shut on Monday.

What are the girls like? Are they early 20s and attractive or more like the Travel Hotel style, less classy girl?

Hi,

At Mulia, my approach (others may differ) is to go find a seat at one of the long tables that run perpendicular to the music stage and order a drink and scan the ladies whilst enjoying the music. You will see a mix of small groups of working girls along these tables and then a long line standing/waiting at the far end, just before the sofa areas (Asian frat-types hog the sofas and unfortunately many of the better girls). The girls at the tables are better looking and more confident whilst the line of girls at the back at more like what you find in hotel travel. Overall much classier girls than hotel travel. Many girls are there to enjoy the music and drinks so it feels less like picking a village girl who hates the work and looks depressed (hotel travel).

The girls are mostly in their 20s with some in their 30s but few obvious cougars. Definitely able to find 3-4 "8s" on an average night. Therefore, definitely better than hotel travel in looks but more importantly much more "fun" in terms of flirting, touching, kissing, dancing.

As for picking up a girl, it's the usual holding eye contact with the one you are interested and giving her a smile. If they are keen then they will.come over and kick off the usual chit chat (where you from, staying in hotel, you like Jakarta etc.). You can go to them to initiate but I'm lazy and not that driven to chase as I'm the buyer here. I never mention a price and usually have some fun with the girl at the bar and let things warm up to the point that I suggest we head upstairs to my room in the Mulia. This nudges the girl to suggest a price (usually ST for me unless you have been with the girl afew times before) where you can counter and bring it down to whatever you feel is acceptable for that kind of girl. Typically starts at IDR 2-3m for a decent 20-something spinner/gym bunny that you can bring down depending on how late it is and how good looking you are, but be realistic that the best girls will be gone by 12.30-1am so you will find a cheaper deal later on but it'll be with hotel travel type girls and if you settle for those then why not just go to hotel travel and save yourself slot of money. Therefore, I don't think you would be able to push it below IDR 1.5m for ST with a 6/7 and above IDR 2m for 7+.

Good luck there!

I didn't try but the massage but I highly doubt it's legit/that good ......if you want a good massage and a HE then head to Myplace senayan. Delta spa in general has gone abit crap recently so I stick to Myplace.

Thanks. That is awesome feedback re Mulia. Thank you very much for the detailed breakdown.

Do they offer full service at My Place Senayan or just HE? Are the girls attractive? Would you walk from Mulia or Uber / Grab?
 
Glad it's of help. Tell us how you got on and what type of prices you ended up finding as it's always good to check these things from another perspective.

Just HE at Myplace....girls are ok but I don't track/make requests as I'm more interested in a hard, proper massage. I go to these places to relax and take the edge of the day...FS can be a fun but tiring experience.

Like most places in Jakarta, you can't walk anywhere and should use grab.

If you end up at Myplace Senayan then there is a decent Spanish restaurant there called "Plan B". Nice combo of relaxation and tapas.

Thanks again - great feedback. Will let you know how I go at My Place and CJs. Conscious CJs is shut on Monday night so trying to find a way to enjoy myself Monday afternoon / evening in proximity to Mulia - sounds like My Place will do, as I don't want to get stuck in traffic out to Classic or Travel for an average experience.

Reading this has been super interesting because I miss Brix in Singapore, and CJs at Mulias sounds a lot like that. Enough that Im considering going there. Whats the best nights?
 
Sorry @xnxx I'm not sure of the best night as I never stay during Friday/Saturday as I'm only there for work during the week. I have always found Wednesday to be busy and happy hunting ground 😁

Thanks for the review, plan to visit jakarta on trip, i do like bali for the beaches, and the resort atmosphere,
but jakarta sounds a lot cheaper, apart from the cost of alcohol.

Thanks for the detailed intel on the Travel spa. Very very helpful. Followed your instructions and say no to any additional orders. Instead tipped the girl before she asks. Got a 19 yo gem. (didn't believe her, then she showed Identity card). Planning to go again soon.

How much price paid and are you sure about the age ? Spa young girls
 
Seems like a nice place. But I still don't get about which hotel you are talking about. The only thing I get that it's in Jakarta, and I'm going there soon from Europe. It's been a while since my last visit.

Well, I'm looking for a nice place. Besides, this time I'm thinking of booking business class flights, since you can arrive all fresh and rested.
