Dear Tria, Since the route is congested route on weekdays and Kuningan city area is the most congested area almost throughout the day whether weekend or weekdays. I suggest to use Uber motor/ Grabbike/Gojek( if you have android smartphone) For accomodation, since this area is central business district, the cheapest hotel might be Amaris but it's more than 500k per night, there' re some kost-kost an which can be rented daily, you might want to check them out in traveloka. I trust you've got the visa!
Hi Sisilia,,,,thank you for advice. I think I'll try to use Gojek :)
Dear Tria, From the station gambir I have 2 solution :
you can continue to use train until (st.gambir, gondang dia, cikini, manggarai, tebet) stasiun tebet may be 15 minute. From tebet you can use gojek/grab (10 - 15 minute) or mikrolet 41 (15 - 30 minute)
From stasiun gambir directly use gojek/grab may be 45 - 60 minute
For hotel you can searching in agoda
Hi Putri,,,,I think I will take Gojek/ grab as with the train seems a bit difficult for me :D So many thank's for suggestion
If u arrive on weekdays at rush hours u might want to consider taking the gojek directly from Gambir. I am afraid the commuter line doesnt stop at Gambir anymore so u cant really take local train from Gambir cmiiw. For budget hotel I'd highly recommend u to check zenrooms. they have great offer with an outstanding facilities and services. HTH and good luck with the visa
Hi Cemplukina,,,,is the Zenrooms nearby the Kuningan City mall where I must go there for visa ? Can I just walk to or need to take any transportation ? Thank you so much for advice :)
Zenroom has some options, they have some in Setiabudi and other parts near Kuningan. Since I like walking so much to me from Setiabudi to Kuningan citu isnt far. But again there is always Gojek, so no place that far lol. Zenroom has an apps. if u book today it runs a promotion for Chinese New Year 30% all rooms no min tranx..btw I am not the marketing officer of Zen. Just a customer who happens to be so much impressed by their services. HTH
Hi Friend, I think you should try to use "Grab" or Gojek or Uber you can download in play store or apple store and use it to find your final destination I think it easy to use, just tell the driver where will he pick up you and tell your final destination on the application, Good Luck ! I agree with sisilia bonaparte montenegro.
Hi Repa,,,,,yaaa...I will try to use Gojek, hope it's save to bring me to my destination, as this is my first time to go to Jakarta..hahaha... Thank's a lot for assistance :)
Tria Di tempat ku Hotel nya murah, coba check Reddoorz petojo, pake booking.com aja. Klo mau ke kuningan ama gambir enakan naek gojek, anti macet dan simple
Thanks Rgds, bow
Hi Bowo,,,,makasih buat infonya. Ntar kucoba liat Reddoorz petojo di Booking.com.
Hi Tria, Theres no direct bus or train to kuningan City from Gambir. The easiest way is get a gojek if you backpacking or get a grab car if you bring suitcase. Its only approximately 20 mins, by gojek not far (except on rush hour). And for Accomodation, "Redoorz Karet Pedurenan 2" is cheap, and you can walk from Kuningan City Mall to the hotels. Try call them first and ask the price if you book straight to them, if more expensive try booking.com. Sometime I got cheaper than booking.com by walk into it. You can get the hotel number from google. Happy travel girl :)
Hi Dini,,,,nice to know that there's a hotel near the Kuningan city which I can walk Will search in in Booking.com as suggested. Much thank for information :)
Hi Tria
Everyone here has great advice. As for places to stay, for a single woman I would suggest a franchise hotel like F1 in Menteng or a nice business hotel the Rasuna Icon. Although there are a lot of places all over Kuningan, they are boarding houses (kost) that usually rent by the month (around 3 million to 7 million Rp.). I currently live in one. Pm me if you need any help. Cheers Michele
Hi Michelle,,,,jaaa...I agree with you. All give me great idea for transportation en accomodation. That help me much as this is my first time to go to Jakarta ;) For F1 and Rasuna Icon, I will check them. Ahja....thank you very much for offering me to pm and all advices given :)
I suggest you take:
Grabbike/gojek/ubermotor. Cheapest way, especially if you go during rush hours.
An alternative is you cross the road from Gambir Station to the bus stop in front of GPIB Immanuel Church and wait for the P20 Kopaja (with or without AC). Take the Kopaja and stop under the Kp Melayu-Karet flyover (ask the driver to stop you there) and cross the road & walk to Kuningan City. Might be a bit dangerous if you're not familiar with how the public buses here work...
Good luck & be safe! :)
Hi Sheilla,,,,using Gojek/ grab is better I think. Thank you for assistance :)
Dear Tria, I can drive you. You can contact me anytime you want. But i will be in Jakarta by 6th Februari. :)
Hi Ninin,,,, Really appreciate that you drive me. I will be in Jakarta on 7th feb. PM you my contact. Enjoying a cup of coffie, maybe? that would be nice I think greetings from Jogja
