Archipelago International has continued the expansion of its Hotel NEO brand, with a groundbreaking ceremony for a new property in Jakarta.

Construction work started recently on the new Hotel NEO Kebayoran, in South Jakarta. The property will feature 105 rooms, four meeting rooms and a café.

“We are always proud to commemorate the beginning of a new project, and this new build will be particularly exciting seeing as it is our flourishing NEO brand hitting the capital city once more,” said Norbert Vas, Archipelago’s vice president of sales & marketing.

“We are confident that Hotel NEO Kebayoran will live up to and surpass all expectations, and we promise that this latest branch will be as unique and contemporary as our other NEO hotels.”

Hotel NEO is Archipelago’s “minimalist budget hotel concept” , which is generally developed as new-build properties. The brand is currently present at locations in Jakarta, Bali and Semarang, but will be rolled out to cities including Medan, Solo, Bandung and Makassar in future.
