s the holiday rolls around, families are making plans to go on road trips or reserving hotels for staycations. The government is also lifting most of its curbs, giving more freedom for travelers to spend their vacation just like the pre-pandemic years. Hotels and resorts, too, are inviting guests to spend their Christmas and New Year at their suites and cozy restaurants.
On Dec. 16, the Mason Pine Hotel in Padalarang, Bandung Barat regency, West Java, launched its newly renovated The Mason Wing. Designed by the renowned Hadiprana Architecture, which added an Art Deco touch to the modern interior, the opening of The Mason Wing marked the elevation of Mason Pine Hotel to five-star status.
“We are proud to open the completed Mason Wing that was beautifully designed by Farid Masdoeki from Hadiprana Design. Adding a little Art Deco touch, we want to add a splash of Javanese aesthetics to every corner of the hotel,” said Markus Goettfert, general manager of Mason Pine Hotel.
The new wing features the Mason Premier Terrace room type, a family-friendly room with a terrace, as its name suggests. Guests are treated to the same verdant scenery when they dine at Samara Indonesian Dining, a private lounge and restaurant with sleek and sophisticated design inspired by Indonesian elements. Aside from a spacious seating area for 72, the restaurant also has a VIP private dining room for more intimate gatherings.
Right below Samara is an infinity pool that reflects Mason Pine’s image as a resort. A brief moment spent beside the pool with canapes in hand will ensure that guests will be in no hurry to go back to their room.
Dinner continues at the Santai All Day Dining that serves Indonesian and international cuisine. An open-kitchen concept, combined with different types of seating and a comfortable interior allows guests to enjoy the cozy atmosphere from appetizer to dessert.
Families with active kids will love Mason Pine’s pristine swimming pools. The resort has a family-sized pool and a kid’s pool with smaller versions of Waterboom-style slides that are safe for children. Not up for a swim? The younger ones will definitely enjoy the indoor playroom and outdoor playground too.
After spending time under the sun, guests can choose to join a yoga class organized by the resort —or skip the outdoor part entirely and break a sweat at Mason Pine’s state-of-the-art gym.
Unwind after a day full of activities at the newly opened Kawah Putih Spa & Wellness. Choose between three types of treatments in different rooms, including a couple’s room and a foot massage room. For a first-rate experience, the spa only uses the finest massage products by Indonesia’s leading wellness brand, Martha Tilaar.
Mason Pine Hotel has been standing among Bandung’s scenic mountain range since 2008. Besides The Mason Wing with its Mason Pine FamStay signature staycation, it has the art-deco inspired Pine Wing that is geared toward business travelers. Mason Pine is also the perfect place to hold exhibitions and other grand events with its ballrooms and Parahyangan Convention.
With every new addition, Mason Pine Hotel aims to be the biggest and most expansive destination for families and business travelers from Indonesia and abroad.
