Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts is an Indonesian hotel group owned by mass media conglomerateKompas Gramedia through its subsidiary PT. Grahawita Santika. Established in 1981, Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts has 112 hotels in 40 cities in Indonesia.[1]
PT Grahawita Santika was established to manage the hospitality industry underKompas Gramedia Group on 22 August 1981. Investing inhospitality industry was a financial diversification plan for the group after the closure of its daily newspaperPos Kota in 1978 which put many jobs at stake. The group's first purchase was the Hotel Soeti inBandung, which was extended from 33 to 70 rooms in 1988, renamed Hotel Santika Bandung, and awarded 3 stars by theMinister of Tourism, Post and Telecommunications,Susilo Sudarman in 1989.[2]
At the beginning, the proposal for establishing a hotel was not approved, because at that time, hotel business was considered a negative connotation and theReturn on Investment (ROI) was progressing slowly. However, Binawarman Sardjan, who was a member on the investment team of Kompas Gramedia Group at that time, convinced the Chairman of the investment team of Kompas Gramedia Group, Indra Gunawan, to approve the proposal. Because of the persistence and hard work of Binawarman Sardjan, Hotel Santika was established.
Several years after the first Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts was inaugurated, Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts developed itself and reached about 40 properties across Indonesia. In accordance with its brand value, "Indonesian Home" and the service motto, "Hospitality from the Heart", Santika Indonesia Hotels & Resorts always emphasizes the value of Indonesian culture, including the hospitality to all guests.[3]
