Padma Hotels celebrates its 35th anniversary, honouring three and a half decades of delivering heartfelt Indonesian hospitality across diverse destinations. What began in 1990 with the opening of a humble resort in Legian has grown into a collection of five properties: Padma Resort Legian, Padma Resort Ubud, Padma Hotel Bandung, Padma Hotel Semarang, and Resinda Hotel Karawang.
From Bali’s iconic beaches to Bandung’s lush hills, the cultural charm of Semarang, and the dynamic hub of Karawang, Padma Hotels continues to redefine luxury stays by blending local heritage, natural beauty, and modern design.
A Journey Rooted in Tradition and Growth
For 35 years, Padma Hotels has embodied warmth and sincerity, inspired by Indonesian art and culture. Each property carries a unique story, contributing to the brand’s reputation as one of the country’s most trusted names in hospitality.
- Padma Resort Legian (1990): Starting with one pool and a few rooms, it is now a 437-room beachfront resort with tropical gardens, five pools, family-friendly activities, cultural performances, and diverse dining.
- Padma Hotel Bandung (1994): Opened with just 51 rooms as a tranquil hillside retreat, it was rebranded in 2009. Today, with 124 rooms, an infinity pool, meeting facilities, and Adventure Park, it welcomes both families and business travellers.
- Padma Resort Ubud (2016): Pioneered luxury in Payangan’s jungle valley, with 149 rooms and an 89-metre infinity pool. Now a wellness retreat, it offers trekking, yoga, cycling trails, and an agroforestry garden.
- Resinda Hotel Karawang (2016): Designed for the industrial hub, it has grown into a destination with 236 rooms, a lagoon pool, Japanese bathhouse, multi-cultural dining, ballroom, and family park.
- Padma Hotel Semarang (2022): Introduced modern luxury with Central Java’s first pool-access rooms, a salt-water pool, gelato bar, and the largest ballroom in the region. A waterpark has since strengthened its position as a lifestyle hub.
