Archipelago Pens Deal for First International Airport Hotel at Kertajati Airport

Archipelago International, Southeast Asia’s largest privately owned and independent hotel management group, is expanding its presence in West Java with the signing of a three-star boutique ASTON Inn hotel in Majalengka.

"We are delighted to welcome our newest hotel in Majalengka. Its excellent location near Kertajati International Airport will allow us to tie it into our offerings for pilgrims choosing to stay with our upcoming hotels in Makkah and Madinah,” said Norbert Vas, VP of Business Development at Archipelago International.

The new ASTON Inn will open in mid-2024 and feature 141 modern ArchSmart rooms and suites equipped with Google Nest voice control functionality, Archipelago’s ArchTV technology enabling unlimited content and Chromecast functionality, several meeting rooms conceptualised with delegate comfort and productivity in mind, and a ballroom will serve as the region’s primary hub for social and corporate happenings.

A lively all-day dining restaurant and coffee shop and a recreational area with a swimming pool, spa, and gym will round off the hotels’ offering making it an attractive option for mid-week business travellers, weekend leisure guests, conference organisers, and pilgrims from all over Indonesia.

The new airport serves the greater Bandung and Cirebon metropolitan areas and will be the major port of departure for Indonesian Muslim pilgrims on their way to Saudi Arabia as well as being a much-needed buffer to help ease air traffic at Jakarta’s Soekarno–Hatta International Airport.
