You will need somewhere to stay when you first arrive in Jakarta and while you are looking for a house for your family.
We would recommend that you ask your company to organise a serviced apartment for you rather than a hotel room. That way you will have your own kitchen to use, more space for everyone and it will also be cleaned daily for you. You may be in temporary accommodation for a month or more so you need to be comfortable.
This will be a great opportunity for you to make new friends, there are always a few families that like you will have just arrived, and you can also get good advice from families that are staying there bal Tel: +62 21 750 7050 Hotel Kristal is very close to Jakarta Interculturefore leaving Jakarta.
