Overview of Classic Hotel
Classic Hotel stands on Jalan KH. Samanhudi No. 43-45, right in the Pasar Baru quarter of Sawah Besar, Central Jakarta. Pasar Baru is named in the hotel's own address, so guests are staying inside this shopping neighbourhood rather than a cross-town drive away from it. For travellers from Singapore who would rather base themselves in an older, lived-in part of Jakarta than among the glass towers of the business districts, that is the clearest reason to look at this property.
The hotel's history is also worth knowing before you search for it. Traveloka's listing records a built year of 2000 and a most recent renovation year of 2025, and the property notes that it was previously named Hotel Classic. If you come across that older name on maps, receipts or in conversations with drivers, it refers to the same building on Jalan KH. Samanhudi, now listed simply as Classic Hotel.
In terms of scale, Classic Hotel is a 4-star property with 129 rooms spread over 7 floors, according to Traveloka's structured listing data. The listing also counts 2 restaurants and 3 bars on site, which is a generous food-and-drink set-up for a mid-sized hotel, alongside a spa, sauna, ballroom and meeting facilities. That mix makes it a practical choice for several kinds of trips: a short city break centred on Pasar Baru and the surrounding Central Jakarta neighbourhoods, a business visit that needs a conference room, or a family gathering that calls for a function space.
This page summarises what Traveloka's own listing confirms about the hotel. Where a detail is not confirmed in the listing, it is flagged as something to check on the property page before you book, so you can plan around facts rather than assumptions.
Room Types at Classic Hotel
Classic Hotel offers 129 rooms in total across its 7 floors. The specific room categories, bed configurations, room sizes and maximum occupancy are shown on the live room cards when you enter your travel dates on Traveloka, and they can differ by date and availability. Rather than guess at a fixed room ladder, this guide recommends comparing the room cards side by side on the booking page, where each card lists its own bed type, capacity and whether breakfast is bundled.
What the listing says about in-room facilities
At property level, Traveloka's listing groups the following under in-room facilities at Classic Hotel: a TV with cable channels, a desk, an in-room safe, a minibar, a refrigerator and a shower. Air conditioning is listed as a general facility. Because these features are recorded for the property as a whole rather than room by room, it is sensible to confirm them on the specific room card you choose, particularly if a minibar or a work desk matters for your stay.
Choosing a room for your trip
Solo travellers and couples on a short Jakarta break will usually be well served by an entry-level category, while families or groups should check the stated occupancy on each card carefully, since the hotel may charge an extra fee for each additional person beyond a room's maximum capacity. Guests travelling for work can look for room cards that mention a desk and plan to use the hotel's business centre for printing or photocopying.
Power and practical details
The listing records a room voltage of 220V. Singapore runs on a similar voltage but uses a different plug type, so most travellers from Singapore will only need a travel adaptor rather than a voltage converter for phones and laptops. Pets are not allowed in the accommodation, so plan alternative arrangements if you normally travel with an animal.
Facilities and Amenities
For a hotel of its size, Classic Hotel lists a broad range of facilities. Traveloka's data groups them into several categories, summarised below so you can see at a glance what is on site.
- Wellness and leisure: spa, massage, sauna, a garden, a terrace and a billiard table.
- Food and drink: 2 restaurants (including an air-conditioned restaurant), a cafe, a coffee shop, a bar, a pub and a nightclub, with 3 bars counted in total.
- Events and business: a ballroom, a conference room, meeting facilities, a business centre, a projector, a printer and a photocopier.
- Connectivity: free WiFi and WiFi in public areas, plus LAN internet.
- Parking: on-site parking (recorded as free in the listing), secure parking, bus and truck parking, and valet parking, which carries a surcharge.
- General: air conditioning, an elevator, a fireplace in the lobby, coffee and tea in the lobby, and a safety deposit box.
- Accessibility: an accessible path of travel and disabled-access-friendly facilities.
The spa is one of the property's more distinctive features for a hotel in the Pasar Baru area. After a day of walking the neighbourhood's streets or sitting in Jakarta traffic, a massage or a session in the sauna is an easy way to reset without leaving the building.
Hotel services
The front desk is listed as having a 24-hour receptionist, and the property also lists 24-hour security. Other services include a concierge, a doorman, a bellhop and porters, luggage storage, laundry service, multilingual staff, express check-in and express check-out, and newspapers in the lobby. Early check-in and late check-out appear among the listed services, although as with most hotels they are subject to availability on the day. Welcoming drinks are also listed.
Room service is recorded in the listing as available 24 hours, although the service list also mentions limited-hours room service, so it is worth confirming with the front desk what is available late at night during your stay.
Location and Getting There
Classic Hotel's full address is Jalan KH. Samanhudi No. 43-45, Pasar Baru, Sawah Besar, Jakarta 10710. Traveloka places it in the Sawah Besar area of Central Jakarta, part of the city's older core north of the main business corridors.
What is around the hotel
The immediate draw is Pasar Baru itself, the shopping quarter named in the hotel's address. Elsewhere in Sawah Besar is Lapangan Banteng, the address of Hotel Borobudur Jakarta, while the neighbouring Gambir area along Jalan Medan Merdeka Timur is close by. Together these make Classic Hotel a fitting base for travellers who want to explore Central Jakarta's historic heart rather than the southern business districts.
- Pasar Baru: the shopping neighbourhood the hotel sits within.
- Lapangan Banteng: also in Sawah Besar, a short taxi ride away.
- Gambir: the neighbouring Central Jakarta area, reachable by a short ride.
Arriving from Singapore
Most travellers from Singapore arrive at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK), Jakarta's main international gateway. Traveloka's listing shows that the hotel does not offer an airport transfer, so plan on a metered taxi, a ride-hailing car or public transport into the city, then an onward ride to Pasar Baru. Journey times across Jakarta depend heavily on traffic, so leave generous time on departure day. To line up the whole journey, you can book flights from Singapore to Jakarta on Traveloka and then add the hotel to the same itinerary.
Driving and parking
If you are arriving by car, the hotel lists on-site parking, secure parking and valet parking (with a surcharge). It also lists parking suitable for buses and trucks, which is handy for group tours or event organisers arriving by coach.
Dining at Classic Hotel
Dining is one of Classic Hotel's strengths on paper. The listing counts 2 restaurants and 3 bars, and between them the property offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, with buffet, set-menu and à la carte formats listed for different meals. A cafe and a coffee shop cover lighter bites and drinks during the day, while snacks and a dietary menu are also recorded.
Breakfast
Breakfast is served from 06:00 to 10:00, according to the hotel's policy on Traveloka. The listing mentions buffet, continental and à la carte breakfast options. Whether breakfast is included depends on the room rate you choose, so check the room card before confirming. If breakfast is not part of your rate, or you are adding an extra person, the hotel charges a per-guest fee for extra breakfast; the current amount is shown in the policy section of the listing.
Evening drinks and entertainment
After dark, the hotel's bar, pub and nightclub give guests options without having to travel across the city. Coffee and tea are also available in the lobby, which is convenient for a quick drink before heading out.
Beyond the hotel
Staying in Pasar Baru also means local eateries are never far away, and exploring the surrounding streets on foot is part of the appeal of this neighbourhood. If you would rather plan a few guided experiences around your meals, you can browse things to do in Jakarta on Traveloka and pair a food tour or attraction ticket with your stay.
Why Stay at Classic Hotel
Classic Hotel combines a 4-star classification with an address in Central Jakarta's Pasar Baru quarter, which is a less common pairing than the business-district towers further south. Several points stand out from the listing data:
- A Pasar Baru address: the hotel sits within the neighbourhood itself, on Jalan KH. Samanhudi.
- Recent renovation on record: Traveloka's listing shows a last renovation year of 2025 for a building first built in 2000.
- Plenty to eat and drink on site: 2 restaurants and 3 bars, plus a cafe and coffee shop.
- Wellness facilities: a spa, massage and sauna under the same roof.
- Event-ready spaces: a ballroom, a conference room and a business centre for meetings, gatherings and celebrations.
- Practical services: a 24-hour receptionist, 24-hour security, luggage storage, laundry service and multilingual staff.
The hotel suits travellers who want a full-service base in Jakarta's older centre, groups organising a function, and business visitors who need meeting rooms in Central Jakarta. Travellers who need an airport transfer arranged by the hotel should note that one is not offered and plan their own transport. If you would like to weigh it against other options before deciding, you can compare more hotels in Jakarta on Traveloka using the same dates.
Tips for Booking Classic Hotel on Traveloka
- Enter exact dates first. Room categories, occupancy and whether breakfast is bundled are shown on each room card once dates are set, so compare cards before choosing.
- Check the occupancy. The hotel may charge an additional fee for each extra person beyond a room's maximum capacity, so book a room that fits your whole party.
- Note check-in and check-out times. Check-in is from 14:00 and check-out is until 12:00. Early check-in and late check-out are listed services but depend on availability.
- Bring identification. You may be asked for valid government-issued ID at check-in, along with a credit card or cash to cover deposits and incidentals. For its deposit policy, the property states that it accepts cash and debit card.
- Plan your airport transfer. The hotel does not offer an airport transfer, so arrange a taxi, ride-hailing car or public transport in advance.
- Special requests are not guaranteed. Requests such as a particular floor or bed type depend on availability at check-in and may cost extra.
- Leave pets at home. Pets are not allowed at the property.
Once your room is confirmed, keep your Traveloka booking details handy on arrival, and remember that the hotel may still appear under its former name, Hotel Classic, on some maps. To plan the rest of your trip in one place, head to the Traveloka homepage.
