A new online marketplace for budget accommodation is now available in Indonesia.
After beginning its operations last month, e-commerce company Tinggal announced on Tuesday that it had raised US$1 million from several investors, including Mangrove Capital Partners and Simile Venture Partners, and was planning to expand to all major cities in Indonesia over the next 12 months.
The company currently has over 50 partner hotels in Jakarta, Bali, Bandung in West Java and Malang in East Java. The hotels are said to provide a complimentary breakfast and Wi-Fi at a starting price of Rp 199,000 (US$15).
Tinggal co-founder Arjun Chopra said that getting a clean and safe hotel at a reasonable price was still a challenge in Indonesia.
"At Tinggal, we ensure that our customers can get a clean room with air-conditioning, Wi-Fi and breakfast at reasonable rates. With a stringent screening process, all our hotels are carefully selected and frequently audited to ensure a good customer experience," said Chopra in a press release on Tuesday.
A mobile application is reportedly in the works and will be available in the coming months.
The company’s website is www.tinggal.com. (kes)
