This year’s holiday theme brings together meaningful traditions and heartfelt moments, allowing guests to experience Christmas in a setting shaped by comfort and sincerity.
The festive season unfolds gently at ARYADUTA Menteng, inviting guests to rediscover the joy of Christmas in one of Jakarta’s most historic neighbourhoods. The hotel sets the tone with thoughtful décor and a sense of anticipation that builds as soon as guests enter the lobby. It is a setting designed to bring people together, creating moments that feel both intimate and celebratory.
The Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony on 2 December 2025 marked the official start of the season. Held in the lobby, the event transformed the space with glowing ornaments and festive colours that complemented the evening’s energy. The atmosphere shifted naturally from calm to joyful, allowing guests to experience the occasion with depth and warmth.
A diverse crowd attended, including guests, in-house visitors, media partners, key opinion leaders, and the Christmas Choir from Gereja NHKBP Limo, Depok. Their harmonious performance set the tone for the evening, creating a tender backdrop for the celebration. The ceremony was opened by General Manager Fajar Sukarno together with ARYADUTA Hotels CEO Ivan Casadevall, signalling the beginning of the festivities with a shared sense of unity.
The presence of children from Pondok Kasih Agape added another layer of meaning. Their choir presentation, delivered with sincerity, created a touching moment that reminded everyone of the heart of Christmas. ARYADUTA Menteng also presented donations and school supplies, reinforcing the spirit of giving that characterises the season. As Fajar Sukarno noted, this year’s celebration carries a deeper meaning, supported by biblical-themed décor that encourages reflection on the birth of the Saviour.
The celebration continues throughout the month with exceptional Christmas Eve dining, available from 24-26 December 2025 at Ambiente Ristorante or Shima Japanese Restaurant, starting from IDR550,000 net per person. Guests can also explore the hotel’s festive hampers, priced from IDR650,000 net, curated as thoughtful gifts for loved ones.
With its combination of heartfelt performances and meaningful community engagement, ARYADUTA Menteng sets the stage for a Christmas season filled with warmth at the centre of Jakarta.
