[HOTEL REVIEW] POP HOTEL-PASAR BARU : REVEALING THE ALL NEW PITSTOP CONCEPT IN TOWN

Few weeks ago, Tauzia Hotel Management Team contacted me to have a staycation in their newest family, POP Hotel Pasar Baru. I immediately say YES since I thought Pasar Baru is close to Monas which I really want to brought my child to play around the area hahaha (you know, the fact we’re living far away from central of Jakarta made us very lazy to go to Monas every weekend). So, this time was PERFECT, right hihi…


POP Hotel Pasar Baru is located at Jl. KH Achmad Dahlan right in front of the legendary Passer Baroe. The concept of this hotel is different from most of established POP Hotel. They’re carrying an eco-friendly and pitstop concept. Well, I’m not going to tell you the definition of those things in words. Let me show you through the pictures along this blogpost. Enjoy!



As I stepped in front of the hotel. I was amazed by their design. Almost every side of the lobby was soooo instagrammable. The lobby might be small but how they set it in a colorful way made this hotel ‘alive’. All the furniture in the lobby dominated in blue and green. At one side of the wall, they even have a cute map of Jakarta’s tourism places close to the hotel. 


And what I love the most is their backside of the lobby. They have a super cozy smoking room area with a mural of Passer Baroe which is again INSTAGRAMMABLE!! Be ready to wear a stylish dress ladies hahaha…

And here what they call as a PITSTOP Concept. Customers can buy various snacks with very affordable price. YES, they really mean it. Most of the snacks’ price here are similar to the average market price. I tried to buy Ultra Milk 250ml and the price was the same with Alfamart’s, IDR5000. Holy cheap! You know sometimes everything sell in a hotel must be very expensive right, but here SAY BYE TO EXPENSIVE haha!


PITSTOP was also mean that the breakfast was excluded from the hotel’s price. Maybe we always expect that once we pay for a room it is automatically include breakfast right, but that’s the way POP Hotel Pasar Baru save the environment. Don’t worry, however, you can still have your hotel breakfast at the PITSTOP Counter since POP Hotel also serve all day food, again, with very affordable price. You can have Nasi Goreng, Spaghetti, Nasi Bakar with only IDR25,000 to 35,000! You even can have various pastries with only IDR6,000!


Well, let’s move to their room. For a budget hotel class, their room wasn’t bad at all. The room was quite big, equipped with small shower room, washstand adjacent to a small drawer, 29 inch LED TV, safe deposit box, and the surprising thing was the additional long sofa which is actually can be used as an additional bed. Wow, good news for travelers or backpackers nih! With one room price, you can bring along your two travel mates together!



Aaahh I found this hotel was also kinda so cuteee….Look at their wall hanger. Whose left their dog here?! Hahaha…


Btw, as their concern to the eco-friendly environment as well, they’re also not provide soap and shampoo. There’s only a small soap which for me I prefer to bring along my own soap for better usage. If you wish to have bathroom amenities e.g. toothbrush, toothpaste or shampoo you can, again, buy it at PITSTOP area with only IDR25,000. Photos below was also show how they concern abut their green environment. ven they have a drop-box for an unused batteries! Cool idea, huh!



Well, overall, I really love my staycation here. With an affordable price, I could stay at a cozy room , stylish and instagrammable hotel and of course loving Jakarta's old tourism places since most of all are only a walking distance from this hotel. Thank you so much POP Hotel Pasar Baru for having me. Wishing you keep up your good work and success ahead.
