SOLO, Indonesia (August 24, 2022) -- World-leading hospitality group, Accor, is delighted to announce the opening of Grand Mercure Solo Baru. The 348-key hotel is set to become the first Grand Mercure in Solo, Central Java, joining Accor’s network of four properties in Solo under the MGallery, Novotel and ibis Styles brands.

Surakarta, also known as Solo, is a prominent destination in Central Java, Indonesia. The tourism sector is rapidly expanding thanks to cultural highlights which showcase Javanese heritage, such as textile centers specializing in wax-dyed ‘batik’ fabrics.
