Villa Isola

Gedung Rektorat UPI

Art-deco villa building designed by architect C.P.W. Schoemaker. It was built in 1932 for media tycoon D.W. Berretty. It lies in the northern part of Bandung, overlooking the city to south and the Tangkuban Perahu volcano to the north. Villa Isola and its 2 gardens have a magnificent design by its architect, combining the unique landscape and the Indo-European architectural style. The monumental building was later used as a hotel, named Hotel de Luxe. Now it serves as the rectorate building of the Indonesian University of Education (UPI), and it is surrounded by the university's campus. The building cannot be entered, but the surrounding gardens are public, and the building can be seen from all angles.
