JAKARTA - President Director of PT Pembangunan Jaya Ancol Tbk (PJAA), Winartomebut Hotel Putri Duyung sebagai ikon Taman Impian Jaya Ancol dapat beroperasi pada Desember 2023.
"God willing, in December this year it will be operational," he said after a meeting with Commission B of the DKI Jakarta DPRD in Jakarta, Wednesday.
Currently, PJAA is still focused on improving infrastructure in several parts of the hotel. One of the improvements is the Pope Suites which is considered the leading place offered by Ancol.
The Suites whale was also carried out again because previously it was badly damaged by the fire that occurred in 2022.

Meanwhile, Secretary of Commission B of the DKI DPRD, Wa Ode Herlina, also regretted the neglect of the Putri Duyung Hotel, especially after being burned in 2022.
He hopes that the Putri Duyung Hotel can be rebuilt and become one of Ancol's leading icons.
