Stepping into Orient8 at Hotel Mulia Jakarta is like walking into a world of fantasy that takes your breath away. Passing through the elegant white door, you are greeted by a dramatic hallway in black and white, adorned with tall pillars that remind you of imperial France.

Beautifully hand-carved chairs, Chinoiserie patterns and rows of chandeliers are just some of the unique visual points that represent the rich blend of cultures in Orient8.
