Bundaran HI Station (or Bundaran HI Bank Jakarta Station, with Bank Jakarta granted for naming rights)[2] is an underground rapid transit station on the North-South Line of the Jakarta MRT in Central Jakarta, Jakarta, Indonesia. Located nearby the Hotel Indonesia (HI) Roundabout (Indonesian: Bundaran Hotel Indonesia (HI)), it is currently the terminus of the North-South Line, as the phase 2 construction of the line is underway.

The station is located in the Gondangdia area of Menteng, Central Jakarta and is built underneath Jalan M.H. Thamrin. Jakarta MRT users can continue their journey with Transjakarta's Corridor 1 service from this station via the Bundaran HI bus stop located above. This connection with Transjakarta is in the form of stairs so it is not disabled friendly.[3]

History

Construction of the MRT station in November 2014

The MRT station opened on 24 March 2019,[1] along with the rest of Phase 1 of the Jakarta MRT. At the same time, the newly rebuilt Transjakarta BRT station of the same name was opened and connected with stairs to the underground MRT station, but there is no direct connection that is accessible for people with disabilities.[4]

An extension work for the concourse area is now on process to add new entrances and to create direct connection to the nearby buildings including Plaza Indonesia and Grand Hyatt Jakarta. The extension is expected to be finished by 2027.[5][6] In the future, underground links from the station to Hotel Indonesia, Grand Indonesia and Mandarin Oriental Jakarta will be constructed.[6]

Naming rights

On 8 October 2024, a naming right for Bundaran HI station was bought by the municipal-owned banking company, PT. Bank DKI (then trading as 'Bank DKI'), thus officially named as Bundaran HI Bank DKI.[7] As Bank DKI was rebranded into 'Bank Jakarta' on 22 June 2025, coinciding with Jakarta's 498th anniversary, the brand name of the station was renamed into Bundaran HI Bank Jakarta around July 2025, in accordance of the rebranding.

Station layout

The station only has two railroad tracks equipped with a buffer stop and a railroad switch on the south side. The switch is used to move MRT trains that were originally on the left track to the right, or vice versa.
