Accor has officially opened Novotel Pontianak Convention Centre in West Kalimantan, and the new hotel is a landmark addition to the city’s hospitality landscape.
Ideally located just 20 minutes from Supadio International Airport, the hotel enjoys a prime position near shopping centres, government offices, hospitals, and local attractions including the Alun-Alun Kapuas riverside park and Gajah Mada Street’s vibrant dining scene.
Accor Asia’s chief operating officer for its premium, midscale, and economy division Garth Simmons enthused: “We are delighted to expand Novotel’s presence in West Kalimantan with the debut of Novotel Pontianak Convention Centre. This hotel exemplifies Novotel’s belief in creating spaces for both business and leisure travellers, blending contemporary comfort with local hospitality.”
For his part, hotel general manager Rispugi Listanto remarked: “Novotel Pontianak Convention Centre is designed as more than just a hotel, it is a hub for families, business travellers, and the local community. We are proud to introduce a property that celebrates the spirit of Pontianak while delivering the trusted hospitality of Novotel.”
Contemporary comfort infused with tradition
The hotel’s contemporary design draws inspiration from Dayak patterns and the Kapuas River, weaving Kalimantan’s cultural heritage into a modern aesthetic.
Subtle motifs are incorporated throughout the interiors, creating a warm and welcoming environment that reflects local identity within Novotel’s signature modern style, and the carefully considered design ensures space for relaxation, work, and connection.
Novotel Pontianak Convention Centre offers 194 spacious rooms and suites, each equipped with Novotel’s signature Live N’ Dream bedding to ensure a restful sleep.
Families are welcomed with thoughtful amenities including a Kids Club and a Kids Splash Pool with water sprayers and a tipping bucket.
Parents can unwind at the tropical-inspired swimming pool or indulge in restorative treatments at In Balance Spa and Fitness, designed to promote longevity and harmony.
At Food Exchange, guests are invited on a culinary journey that celebrates local flavours alongside international favourites, as well as a dedicated children’s menu.
The lively Gourmet Bar in the lobby offers light bites and crafted cocktails, while the open-air Pool Bar provides refreshing drinks by the water.
MICE matters in West Kalimantan
Setting a new benchmark for gatherings in West Kalimantan, the hotel features the Lotus Ballroom, the largest pillarless ballroom in Pontianak.
With soaring seven-metre-high ceilings, the venue can accommodate up to 2,000 guests for weddings, celebrations, and corporate occasions.
In addition, two meeting rooms can expand into eight breakout spaces, allowing for flexible configurations to accommodate a variety of events.
