Finally consistent with our values, we open-hearted welcome all Oddbirds, those who celebrates their true individuality, to connect with like-minded individuals” – said Jesper Soerensen - General Manager.
Nestled in the heart of the Sudirman Central Business District (SCBD) within District 8, 25hours Hotel The Oddbird Jakarta rises 38 stories high, featuring 206 rooms, 130 serviced apartments, 11 meeting rooms and a ballroom, standing above Ashta Mall in the bustling Senopati area – one of the city’s top business and lifestyle destinations.
The hotel draws inspiration from the neighborhood’s history and culture, once envisioned as a garden city with its own mid-century Jenki evolution, a post-war modernist architectural style which was developed in Indonesia.
As a result, 25hours Hotel The Oddbird offers lush garden rooms and retro urban rooms, each furnished with original vintage mid-century pieces and curated local and international art, evoking both nostalgia and the fleeting nature of time.
Co-working spaces with a maxi bar, along with uniquely themed meeting rooms, cater to those embracing the hustle culture. All the public areas will be furnished with an eclectic mix of original Mid Century Modern Pieces. Meanwhile, the Vida spa offer a tranquil retreat and full range of wellness choices which connected to the outdoor pool where guests can enjoy the infinity pool or lounge on sunbeds while savoring plant-based snacks and sipping ABV Pina Coladas. 25hours Things Shop that connects to Ashta Mall will be an exciting space full of sustainable and upcycling curation along with local sustainable crafts.
Guests can indulge in a culinary journey at COPA, offering Latin American dishes crafted by Executive Chef Matias Mardones from Chile, enjoy cocktails at THE ODDBIRD BAR headed by Marcello Monte from Argentina, or relax by the pool enjoying plant-based food in CABANA.
This was orchestrated by the renowned co-founder Andrew Yap of Old Man Bar Singapore that was in the top 50 Asia and World Best Bar who is now Director of Food & Beverage at 25hours Hotel The Oddbird Jakarta. Two more exciting F&B concepts are coming on the rooftop of the building in Q1 2025.
True to its name, 25hours Hotel The Oddbird is a place of contrasts, where nostalgia meets modernity, inviting guests to embrace their perfectly authentic selves.
The hotel’s "Come as You Are" philosophy fosters genuine connections, reflecting the vibrant spirit of classic Jakarta neighborhoods through its Garden and Urban-themed rooms. By blending authenticity, individuality, and rich cultural experiences, 25hours Hotel The Oddbird Jakarta offers a unique, unforgettable stay that celebrates life’s moments.
