Melia Hotel to be dedicated

JAKARTA (JP): Melia Purosani, the first five-star hotel in Yogyakarta, with 300 rooms, is scheduled to be inaugurated by the minister of tourism, post and telecommunications on Friday.

The hotel, which began a soft opening last year, is owned by PT Suryaraya Aninoita International -- a joint venture between PT Suryaraya Idaman of Indonesia, Singapore Airlines and Steamship Investment and Development Co., both of Singapore, and Grupo Sol, the largest hotel chain in Spain.

Located near the Malioboro shopping area, Melia Purosani offers a wide range of facilities and amenities that are the standard requirements for a five-star property, including five meeting rooms with seating capacities of 65 to 90 people and a grand ballroom for 600 people.

Melia Purosani is the third property of Grupo Sol in Indonesia, after Melia Bali in Nusa Dua and Melia Panorama in Batam near Singapore. (vin)
