Meru Hotels

About this hotel

The Meru is the premier five-star hotel brand managed by HIG (Hotel Indonesia Group), representing the pinnacle of Indonesian luxury hospitality. Drawing its name from the ancient Sanskrit word Meru, meaning “peak” or “mountain,” the brand embodies the essence of Indonesia’s natural beauty and cultural richness. The name reflects the grandeur of Indonesia’s diverse landscapes, particularly its volcanic mountains that majestically rise from islands scattered across the archipelago.

At the heart of The Meru brand is a commitment to showcasing the authentic heritage and indigenous culture of Indonesia. From its architectural design to its interior aesthetics and guest experiences, each Meru property is inspired by local traditions, craftsmanship, and natural elements. The brand seeks not only to provide luxurious accommodations but also to create a sense of place — where travelers can deeply connect with the culture, cuisine, and communities of the region.

The Meru offers a refined blend of modern sophistication and traditional charm, highlighted by signature Indonesian hospitality known for its warmth and attentiveness. Guests can expect world-class service paired with the flavors of diverse culinary experiences, combining Indonesian regional dishes with international cuisine to cater to global tastes.

In addition to elegant stays, The Meru distinguishes itself by offering curated recreational activities and immersive programs that go beyond typical resort offerings. These may include local cultural performances, traditional cooking classes, artisan workshops, nature excursions, and community-based experiences that support local economies and preserve cultural heritage. This holistic approach allows guests to relax, explore, and engage with Indonesia in meaningful ways.
