Kuretakeso is easy to find, located in South Jakarta, Jalan Bangka Raya No. 7A to be exact. It can be easily reached with any public transportation. Walking through the lobby, the atmosphere of Japan follows. It can be seen as well from wood material and wall decorations.
Kuretakeso has 108 rooms consisting of three different types, Deluxe Room, Executive Room, and Tatami Room. Kuretakeso is the only hotel that has Tatami Room. The tatami Room itself is a room without a couch for the bed. They replace the couch with tatami, a rush-covered straw mat forming a traditional Japanese floor covering.

Kuretakeso does not provide a swimming pool hence they have an onsen. Onsen refers to a public hot bath. Soaking here is the right choice for simple relaxation before bed. A hot bath has been proven to burn some calories, relax your mind as well as maintain blood sugar.
