Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts to Rename Jakarta Property
After More Than Eight Years of Successful Management, The Regent Jakarta
becomes Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta 


TORONTO, July 14  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts is
pleased to announce that The Regent Jakarta will be officially re-named Four
Seasons Hotel Jakarta today.

Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta is better than ever, having just completed an
extensive refurbishment programme. A completely renovated Ballroom and four
function rooms have now expanded the availability of function space and the
stunning new Spa adds a new level of pampering to both guests and locals in
Jakarta. The Hotel's dedicated management and staff will continue to provide
guests with the consistent, personalised and anticipatory service they have
come to expect of Four Seasons worldwide.

"Four Seasons has managed this prestigious property for more than eight years
now and it has become the premier address in Jakarta. As Four Seasons continues
to grow, especially in Asia, the time is right to rename the hotel," said Wolf
Hengst, president, worldwide hotel operations, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.
"Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta embodies core Four Seasons operating and cultural
standards and offers international guests experiences of exceptional quality."

When the 365-room Regent Jakarta opened its doors in 1995, it set new standards
of luxury in Indonesia, and provided a true "home away from home" for global
business travellers. Four Seasons continues to build recognition and a loyal
following as the company expands its portfolio in Asia. Award- winning Four
Seasons hotels and resorts are already located in Bali (in Jimbaran Bay and
Sayan); the Maldives; Singapore; Bangkok; Chiang Mai; Tokyo; Shanghai and
Sydney. The company's first resort in Malaysia, in Langkawi, is currently
scheduled to open in early 2005. Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong, a landmark
building that is part of the prestigious Hong Kong Station in the city's
Central district and financial core, is currently slated to open in mid-2005.
