Tangerang's Dream: Luxurious Sky House Studio in BSD!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because we're diving headfirst into the fluffy clouds and shimmering skyline of Tangerang's Dream: Luxurious Sky House Studio in BSD! And let me tell you, after a rigorous (and highly enjoyable, let's be real) "investigation," I'm ready to spill the beans. This place… well, it's got some serious game.
First, the Arrival - Or, The Great Elevator Anxiety…
Okay, so let's get real: accessibility is key, especially if you're, you know, carrying a suitcase the size of a small rhino. Getting there is fairly easy, the hotel's well-placed near BSD City and has good airport transfer, and it's got a solid elevator scenario, so no massive leg hikes to your room, thankfully, the Hotel also has valet parking, which is great, but the elevator itself? I had a moment of, shall we say, "pre-elevator jitters." But, hey, everyone makes it to their floors and it's very convenient.
Inside the Skyscraper - A World of Shiny Things
Once inside. The place is modern, sleek, and… clean. Like, seriously clean. We're talking "hospital-grade sanitizing services" – which after the last few years, is music to my germaphobe ears. The rooms are impeccably, beautifully cleaned. Room sanitization opt-out? Nope. That's a hard pass.
Room Rundown: My Own Personal Cloud Nine (Almost)
My Sky House Studio? Think sleek lines, minimalist design, and a view that made me want to burst out laughing (in a good way!).
Available in all rooms: Air conditioning, Alarm clock, Bathrobes, Bathroom phone, Bathtub, Blackout curtains, Carpeting, Closet, Coffee/tea maker, Complimentary tea, Daily housekeeping, Desk, Extra long bed, Free bottled water, Hair dryer, High floor, In-room safe box, Interconnecting room(s) available, Internet access – LAN, Internet access – wireless, Ironing facilities, Laptop workspace, Linens, Mini bar, Mirror, Non-smoking, On-demand movies, Private bathroom, Reading light, Refrigerator, Safety/security feature, Satellite/cable channels, Scale, Seating area, Separate shower/bathtub, Shower, Slippers, Smoke detector, Socket near the bed, Sofa, Soundproofing, Telephone, Toiletries, Towels, Umbrella, Visual alarm, Wake-up service, Wi-Fi [free], Window that opens.
The Bed: Seriously comfortable. I sunk in and almost didn't resurface. The extra long bed was a godsend for this restless sleeper.
The View: Imagine a sprawling cityscape twinkling below. Now, imagine sipping coffee in your bathrobe, gazing at it all. Pure bliss.
The Tech: Free Wi-Fi? CHECK. (And surprisingly good, unlike some hotels where the Wi-Fi is slower than dial-up.)
The Little Things: They thought of everything. Slippers, bathrobes, a mini-bar stocked with goodies (because, let's face it, we all need a midnight snack). Essential condiments for the coffee machine. The only missing was perhaps a personal butler (kidding… mostly).
Food, Glorious Food (And a Few Hiccups)
Okay, let's talk grub. Tangerang's Dream offers a solid range of dining options.
- Restaurants: The Asian cuisine and International cuisine in the restaurants were top-notch; and there are also Asian and Western breakfasts.
- Bars: I'm a sucker for a good happy hour, and their bar didn't disappoint, the poolside bar offered the perfect vibes to relax.
- Service: Breakfast in room is an option. The breakfast buffet was, well, a buffet. Nothing revolutionary but it certainly hit the spot!
- Other Considerations: The restaurants are clean, and the staff are clearly trained in safety protocol, and all things involving the room (plates, cups, etc.) are sanitized. There is a coffee shop to enjoy.
The Spa & Relaxation Zone: Where I Lost All Track of Time (and Possibly Myself)
Alright, let's talk about the real reason we book a hotel like this: the spa. Oh, man. I had a massage, I had a body scrub (my skin has never been so soft!), and I spent far too long in the sauna. They have a pool with a view (spectacular), a steamroom, and a gym/fitness center if you're feeling ambitious.
- Spa/Sauna: This is the high point of the whole visit.
- Gym: I'm not an exercise nut, but I peeked in, and it looked pretty well-equipped.
Safety First (And That's a Relief)
In these times, safety is paramount. I'm happy to report Tangerang's Dream is taking it seriously:
- Cleanliness and Safety: Daily disinfection in common areas, hand sanitizer everywhere, and staff wearing masks.
- Rooms: Rooms sanitized between stays, which is a major plus.
Things To Do (Beyond Napping and Eating)
- Activities: They even have a kids meal if you're traveling with the young ones.
- Things to DO in the area: I mainly enjoyed the hotel, but there are local shopping centres and parks that looked fantastic.
The "Meh" Moments (Because Nobody's Perfect)
It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows.
- Minor Inconvenience: The hotel has a smoking area.
The Verdict: Should You Book Tangerang's Dream?
Absolutely.
My Opinion: This hotel is a solid choice. The Sky House Studio offers unmatched comfort and luxury. Everything is clean, the staff are great, and the amenities make your stay special.
Here's The Deal:
Book your Tangerang's Dream getaway now. Treat yourself to a stay at this luxurious haven, book it now.

Okay, buckle up, buttercup. This isn't your grandma's itinerary. We're diving headfirst into a weekend at the Elegant & Comfort Studio Sky House BSD By Travelio in Tangerang, Indonesia. Prepare for a rollercoaster of emotions, questionable choices, and the undeniable charm of Southeast Asian chaos.
The Unofficial, Unfiltered Sky House BSD Adventure: A (Possibly Slightly Disastrous) Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival, Adoration, and the Agony of Finding the Fridge
- 14:00 (ish): Arrive at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK). Okay, deep breaths. The reality of Indonesian humidity hits you like a tidal wave. Forget sleek travel outfits, you're embracing the frizz and the desire to be air-conditioned. Finding the damn driver (booked via Grab, naturally) feels like a scavenger hunt in a jungle gym.
- 15:30: Arrive at Sky House BSD. The lobby is… well, let's call it "aspirational." The pictures online promised sleek, modern minimalist. Reality… is a bit… more “lived-in.” But hey, the air conditioning is blasting. We’re alive! Check-in is surprisingly painless, and the staff are genuinely friendly, even though my attempts at Indonesian greetings were met with bemused smiles.
- 16:00: The Studio. The studio itself is… surprisingly decent! Okay, maybe the pictures weren't completely misleading. The view from the (hopefully secure) 20th-floor balcony? Stunning. Okay, maybe I judged a book by its cover… or lobby. I’m already daydreaming about sunsets with a kopi susu (sweet iced coffee).
- 16:30: Fridge Quest. This is where things went south. Where is the fridge?! Seriously. After a frantic search (and a few muttered curses), discovered the fridge was disguised as a cabinet. I almost gave up and called reception. I seriously considered a desperate phone call to Travelio on the support hotline…
- 17:00: Grocery Store Raid. Time for a quick haul nearby. I stumbled upon an Indomaret (a 7-Eleven equivalent) and grabbed some essentials: instant noodles (duh), bottled water (essential), a questionable-looking mango (gambling on that one), and a bag of kerupuk (prawn crackers, because, Indonesia).
- 18:00: Sunset Settle. Sat back on the balcony to watch the sunset, eating my instant noodles like a starving beast. The mango was not, in fact, good. But the sky – the fire-engine, tangerine, glorious sky – made the whole thing feel impossibly romantic. Almost enough to distract me from the sheer humidity.
- 19:00: Dinner Dilemma. Ordered food from a (very highly reviewed) local warung (small eatery) via GrabFood. Went for the classic nasi goreng (fried rice). It arrived… well, let's just say the delivery driver needed some serious navigational skills. The food was cold, but the flavors? Divine. It was the best bad dinner I’ve had in a long time.
- 20:00 - 22:00: Bedtime & Bedtime Routine. Netflix, with a little bit of insomnia. The air con, the heat, the distant car honks, the new environment. But hey, I'm here. And tomorrow holds the promise of more chaos, food and fun!
Day 2: Temples, Traffic, and the Terrors of Shopping
- 08:00 (ish): Awaken! The sun has broken through the blinds. The light, beautiful! Coffee, kopi susu from the 7-Eleven, is the only thing that will get me moving.
- 09:00: The Plan (Sort Of). I had, a vaguely formed plan to visit a Buddhist temple, Vihara Ekayana (a quick Grab ride away), but the thought of spending hours in traffic is frankly terrifying. I want to but I don't want to.
- 10:00: The Temple Itself. Okay, I did it, I went! After the long, traffic-filled ride, I found myself standing in front of this gorgeous building and a beautiful, serene place, a total contrast to the chaos of the traffic outside. It was so peaceful. After walking around and exploring, I bought a few souvenirs and hopped back in the car.
- 13:00: Shopping… I'm not a shopper, I'm really not. But everyone says to visit a mall. The Aeon Mall BSD City seems to be the recommendation. I spent a couple of hours wandering, feeling completely overwhelmed by the sheer number of options.
- 15:00: Coffee & Collapse. Escaped the mall for a coffee at a trendy café. The coffee was decent, the air conditioning was blissful, and the feeling of "I need a nap" was overwhelming.
- 16:00: The “Oh, I Should Have Bought That” Regret. Walking back to my hotel room from the mall. Oh, that thing I could have bought. It was a cool bag. Well, next time.
- 17:00: Pre-Dinner Prep (aka, Nap Time).
- 19:00: Dinner Adventures. I was feeling adventurous, so I tried a sate kambing (grilled mutton satay). It was amazing. The flavors were bold, the meat was tender. I was so glad I took the risk!
- 20:00: Late Night. I ended up chatting with the Grab driver, a super friendly person who told me all about Tangerang. I learned so much about the culture that night, which made me super happy!
Day 3: The Farewell, and the Feeling of "I'll Be Back"
- 09:00: Wake up, and pack up everything. The journey is about to end, but I don't feel ready to head back home. It's already getting hot outside.
- 10:00: Last-Minute Breakfast. I grab some of the kerupuk I bought and head to the sky house restaurant for some eggs. What a view!
- 11:00: Check-out. Surprisingly painless. The staff were amazing.
- 12:00: Head to the airport and head back home.
Final Thoughts (aka, the Messy Truth)
This trip was… everything. It was chaotic, it was delicious, it was uncomfortable, and it was utterly unforgettable. Sky House BSD wasn't perfect, but it was a home base in the midst of a crazy, beautiful adventure. I’m leaving Tangerang sweaty, slightly sleep-deprived, and with a newfound appreciation for instant noodles and the sheer resilience of the human spirit. Would I go back? Absolutely. Indonesia, you have claimed a piece of my heart (and probably one of my digestive tracts). Now, where's the next flight?

Tangerang's Dream: Luxurious Sky House Studio in BSD - The Real Deal (Maybe?) FAQs
Okay, spill the tea: Is this Sky House thing REALLY luxurious? Like, REALLY REALLY?
Alright, buckle up buttercup, because I've been there, done that, and nearly spent a small fortune on the dream of living in the sky. Luxurious? Well, it depends. They *say* luxurious. They show you the renderings – gleaming white kitchens, infinity pools overlooking the, uh, other buildings. The truth? It's... curated. Think Instagram-perfect but maybe not reality-perfect. I remember walking into one of the show units and my jaw dropped. Like, seriously dropped. Polished floors, that panoramic view… Then I noticed the slightly chipped grout. And the suspiciously small fridge. Luxury, sure. But luxury with a hint of "we're trying really hard." My advice: Go check it out for yourself. Your definition of luxury might be a little different than the saleswoman's.
What's the deal with "BSD"? I keep hearing that phrase, and frankly, I'm a little confused.
BSD. Ah, the acronym that's probably burned into the brains of every potential Tangerang resident. It stands for "Bumi Serpong Damai," which translates roughly to "Peaceful Serpong Land." Hah! Peaceful, right? Look, it's a massive, sprawling development, kinda like a city within a city. It’s got everything – malls, schools, those fancy co-working spaces filled with people pretending to be tech entrepreneurs, you name it. However, be prepared for the traffic. Seriously. It's legendary. I once spent two hours trying to get from Sky House to a decent coffee shop. Two hours! So, BSD is… convenient, sure. But "peaceful"? Debatable. Pack snacks. And a good audiobook.
Studio? Seriously? How much space are we ACTUALLY talking about here? Is it a glorified closet?
Okay, the studio situation is a tricky one. Let's be honest, "studio" is often code for "compact." The Sky House studios aren't the *smallest* I've ever seen, but don't expect a ballroom. It's a single room, usually incorporating the living, sleeping, and kitchen areas. Think minimalist living. Think Tetris. Think strategically placed mirrors to make it *seem* bigger. I vividly remember going to a unit and immediately feeling claustrophobic. My inner voice shrieked, "Where will I put all MY STUFF?!" (I have a *lot* of stuff.) Measure everything. Seriously. Your furniture. Your aspirations. Your mental capacity for compact living. It's a commitment.
The View! Tell me about the view! Is it as incredible as the pictures suggest?
The view. The *raison d'être* for the whole Sky House shebang, right? Well… it depends. The pictures are, shall we say, optimistic. Sure, if you're on a high floor and facing the right direction, you get a pretty spectacular view. Imagine, sweeping vistas… Then you realize you're overlooking… other buildings. And the noise of construction. And the relentless humidity that fogs up the windows. I loved a showing I went to when I was seriously considering buying. The view from the unit was *stunning*. I pictured myself, coffee in hand, watching the sunrise. And I did, for a fleeting moment, the morning after I stayed overnight. It was magical. But the next morning, the water went out. And the construction noise started at 6:00 AM. That dream dissipated pretty quickly.
What about those amenities? Pool? Gym? Are they actually usable or just for show?
Ah, the amenities! The siren song of the aspiring urbanite! The pool is usually there, yes. The gym, too. The pool looks lovely in the brochure, all shimmering water and sun-drenched loungers. In reality, it can be crowded, and the water isn't always the cleanest. (I'm not saying *I* saw anything questionable, but one time I saw a child... never mind). The gym… well, it depends on your definition of "gym." Sometimes it's well-equipped. Sometimes it's missing a few weights. Sometimes, and this is my personal experience, it smells faintly of chlorine, sweat, and disappointment. Remember, these amenity spaces are shared. So, manage your expectations. And maybe bring your own disinfectant wipes.
Price tag. Let's talk money. Is this "affordable luxury," or just plain expensive?
Alright, the million-dollar question (or, you know, the hundreds-of-thousands-of-rupiah question). Is it "affordable luxury"? That's a tricky one. It's not *as* expensive as some of the completely bonkers, ultra-luxury condos in Jakarta. But it's still a significant investment. And don't forget all the hidden costs - monthly maintenance fees, sinking fund contributions, and the inevitable "special assessments" that always seem to crop up. My advice? Do. Your. Homework. Thoroughly. Calculate everything. Factor in all the potential hidden costs. And then, and this is the important part: ask yourself if you can realistically handle it. Don't get caught up in the dream and then end up eating instant noodles for the rest of your life. Because, trust me, even with a killer view, instant noodles get boring fast.
What about the neighbors? Are they the cool, chic, sophisticated types, or…?
Okay, the neighbors. This is a gamble, folks. You could end up with a community of young professionals, creative types, and the occasional influencer. Or you might end up with… well, you get the gist. The potential for noise complaints, parking squabbles, and passive-aggressive notes on your doorstep is, shall we say, elevated. I've heard stories. Oh, the stories. But, hey, you might get lucky and find a genuine, welcoming community. Or you might end up perfecting the art of ignoring your neighbors while you sip your morning coffee and contemplate your life choices. It's a roll of the dice. May the odds be ever in your favor.
What's the *worst* thing about living at Sky House? Be honest!
Okay, deep breath. The *worst* thing? The constant feeling of… being watched. Not in a sinister, Big Brother kind of way (though the security cameras are *everywhere*). It's that you are surrounded by other people. Coastal Inns
