Starwood properties reflect Indonesia's charms

Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc. is one of the
leading hotels and leisure companies in the world with
approximately 750 properties in more than 80 countries and
120,000 employees at its owned and managed properties.

With internationally renowned brands, Starwood corporation is
a fully integrated owner, operator and franchiser of hotels and
resorts including: St. Regis, The Luxury Collection, Sheraton,
Westin, Four Points by Sheraton, and W Hotels and Resorts as well
as Starwood Vacation Ownership, Inc., one of the premier
developers and operators of high quality vacation interval
ownership (time-share) resorts. Part of this great giant is the
Starwood Indonesia collection of properties.

Stretching along the equator for more than 5,000 kilometers,
Indonesia's 17,000 islands are a rich mosaic of sights and
experiences found nowhere else in the world. Different
languages, cultures and traditions combine in a kaleidoscope of
song, dance, art and architecture. From the serenity of long,
white beaches fringed with gently swaying palms to modern
powerhouse mega cities, Indonesia is a country that will enchant
you, surprise you and make you want to come back for more.

From Sumatra in the west, to Bali, and to Papua in the east,
many of Starwood brands are represented. The Westin Resort in
Nusa Dua, the Sheraton Lampung Hotel, the Sheraton Bandara Hotel
in Jakarta, Sheraton Media Hotel and Towers in Jakarta, the
Sheraton Bandung Hotel and Towers, the Sheraton Mustika
Yogyakarta Resort and Spa, the Sheraton Surabaya Hotel and
Towers, the Sheraton Laguna Nusa Dua Bali, the Sheraton Senggigi
Beach Resort on Lombok and the Sheraton Timika Hotel in Papua are
among Starwood's luxury properties in Indonesia. The St. Regis
Residences and Villas are expected to be opened in November 2007.

The true strength of the brand lies in the variety of
destinations and experiences that are offered to all guests.
Hotel experience and local cultural experience complement each
other to make your stay worthwhile. Visit Yogyakarta and stay at
Sheraton Mustika Resort and Spa equipped with the famous Taman
Sari Royal Heritage Spa. The hotel location was specifically
designed to provide you an easy access to one of the Wonders of
the World, Borobudur Temple.

Alternatively, enjoy a relaxing holiday in the rich cultural
environment of Bali during your stay at one of the Sheraton or
Westin hotels there. For golf enthusiasts, golf courses in
Jakarta, Bali, Surabaya and the jewel in the crown in Timika can
change the scope of your holiday or business trip. Each location
has unique offerings coupled with the Starwood Cares customer
service staff, who are trained throughout all hotels in the Asia-
Pacific.

It is the location, the service and all that Starwood has to
offer that makes it close to the heart of its customers. For
Starwood, customer loyalty is the key. It is not something that
can be bought, but must be won over. Starwood's focus on customer
loyalty has been evident through its loyalty program, Starwood
Preferred Guest, which has won the customer's choice "Freddie
Awards" six years in a row.

So, drop by and experience for yourself all the best of
Starwood Indonesia at its Sheraton and Westin Hotels and Resorts
near you. For more enjoyment, do not forget to always equip
yourself with an ANZ credit card, since ANZ and Starwood, as ANZ
Spot Partner, offer exclusive benefits for ANZ Cardholders.
