After years of anticipation, The Langham, Jakarta opened its doors on 9th September 2021 in Indonesia’s capital city as the new leading ultra-luxury hotel and lifestyle destination.
The stylish and contemporary 65-storey hotel is strategically located within the new prestigious complex of District 8 at SCBD, near the city’s most important financial, cultural and entertainment centres.
“The opening of this beautiful hotel in Jakarta is the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication to delivering the very best product, facilities and service in this international gateway city,”
said Brett Butcher, chief executive officer of Langham Hospitality Group. “Partnering with Indonesia’s premier developer Agung Sedayu Group, we have been able to create something truly remarkable to welcome our guests to one of the very best hotels in the world. We are taking luxury to new heights and I couldn’t be prouder to include The Langham, Jakarta to our collection.”

Upon entering the lobby on the ground floor, all eyes will be drawn towards the magnificent chandelier depicting 3,000 fluttering crystal butterflies, some of which are suspended by intricate wirework. Titled “Haven” by Lasvit, the renowned designers of dazzling bespoke light installations from the Czech Republic, the chandelier takes its inspiration from the Indonesian rainforests where butterflies fly freely thereby creating an ethereal aesthetic in the remarkable space. The elaborate construct of Haven is evident in the beautiful champagne-coloured lattice that is reminiscent of a Monarch butterfly’s wings.
On the 62nd floor at the Sky Lobby, a second but no less dramatic 10-metre-high chandelier, also by Lasvit, commands the attention and admiration of the guests.
