I Stayed at a $429 LUXURY SUITE in Jakarta (Shangri-La Hotel) 🇮🇩

I stayed at the Shangri-La hotel in Jakarta, and it was undoubtedly one of the best experiences of my life.
Better yet, they were kind enough to upgrade me to a $429 per night suite which provided luxury on a level that I had simply never experienced before.
In this video I share my experience with you, and provide my honest review of what I thought of the hotel's facilitates, food and service, and one particular guest along the way...
From the breakfast buffet to the floodlit tennis courts, this made for a memorable final night in the incredible capital of Indonesia. Terima kasih!

If only I could afford to do this every time! The experience was incredible

@dubaiflug Ай бұрын

Hi James...Since I have always watched your videos, personally I think that this kind of hotel is most suitable for you. Next time you go to any country, you must have at least one five-star hotel in each country too. Enjoy Shangri - La Hotel :)

@InvestedAdventure Ай бұрын

Wow, that’s kind of you to suggest. In time I hope that I might be able to afford it and show you guys what it’s like on the inside of some of these places, as I experience them for the first time myself. It was definitely a lot of fun, and as the channel grows, I’d love to make the worst/best review in every city I visit!

Jakarta luxury indeed!! This place gets its high rating for a reason.👌🏼Seriously considering this the best hotel experience I've ever had. Would highly recommend checking it out, especially if you can snag a suite upgrade! What do you guys think of this hotel? Tell me about it in the comments!

I love watching your videos, very insightful. I'm going to Surabaya, Mt Bromo and Jogja in July from Singapore. Thanks to your videos, I'm going places that you went.

@InvestedAdventure Ай бұрын

This gives me so much satisfaction to hear! For me, Bromo was a challenge, and a big milestone in the recovery from my period of ill health. Big up Jogja, Surabaya, and the wonderful country of Indonesia. Do keep in touch and message me on IG in case you’d like any more tips or ideas

With the way he kept referencing a hypothetical partner ("if I had a partner"), I thought the video was going to transition into a personal ad at some point of time. 😏 Kind of like how other KZfaqrs would transition to VPN ads. But instead, it'll be an ad for lonely heart seeking companionship Also, I'm disappointed that he didn't run into his new Scandinavian friend at breakfast for another showdown 😂

This is highly plausible, yet he was alone, which is a little strange. But perhaps he was lying to someone about where he was (or was not) “on business” that week. Too bad! Dishonesty is weakness, and weak men deserve what the world serves them whilst courageous men lead 🎥
