Slated to open in early 2028, the hotel will be an integral part of Two Sudirman Jakarta, a mixed-use two-tower development poised to be amongst the tallest skyscrapers in the country.
Located in the heart of the central business district, the hotel will be the first Andaz-branded urban hotel in Indonesia complementing Andaz Bali, a resort that opened in 2021. Andaz Jakarta Sudirman will join Hyatt’s growing portfolio of 14 properties operating under the Alila, Andaz, Park Hyatt, Grand Hyatt, Hyatt Place and Hyatt Regency brands in Indonesia.

With Andaz Jakarta Sudirman, we aim to create a landmark that not only enhances Jakarta’s skyline but also enriches the city’s hospitality offerings, setting a new standard in urban living and hospitality excellence.”
Construction has begun for Two Sudirman Jakarta, which is centrally located along Sudirman Street, the main street of Jakarta’s central business district. The development will have convenient access to MRT (Jakarta Mass Rapid Transit), LRT (Light Rapid Transit) and direct connectivity to Soekarno-Hatta International Airport through the Airport Rail Link, enabling travelers to seamlessly get around the city.
