Hippo Homestay, Jakarta, Indonesien

We are a family home. 30 mins from the airport. 15 mins from the historic old town (Batavia). 40 mins from the city centre. Hippo is perfect for travellers who are in Jakarta for a short transit.

Hippo is for travellers who enjoy local experience. We are within walking distance to modern amenities such as restaurants and a large mall. Unlike the notorious Jalan Jaksa, our suburb/housing complex is in a safe, gated neighborhood. Please note that we are on the edge of the city (in North Jakarta, near the airport).

Hippo offers two large rooms: one single room with a shared bathroom, and one queen bedroom with an en suite bathroom.
