Hostels in Central Java

"I’m giving this a long review because, while I give it 5 stars, travelers should know what they are getting into. The rooms are traditionally Javanese rooms. This means fretted wood panels that are open to the outside, a sliding wood latch to lock the door, no minibar, fridge, microwave, or TV. It is a house like a fairly wealthy Javanese family would live in. The bathroom is an open tile floored room with a spray handle for washing up. The water was hot. Food at the resort was very good traditional Javanese. Food in this area is hotter than other locations in Java. If you desire additional privacy ask for a room on the end so people don’t pass by your room. The staff speaks good English. It was perfect for my taste but if you want a more standard western style room this may not meet your expectations."

"This place is amazing!"

"A great location and although a modern building (it was a bank HQ at one time) is well set out ho showcase Java culture."

"Decent food, love the peaceful environment, also the terrece bar would be a nice place to visit after dinner"

From the moment I arrived, the warm and welcoming staff made me feel right at home. The location was ideal, offering breathtaking views and easy access to nearby attractions. The hotel's amenities were top-notch, with well-maintained facilities, and beautifully landscaped gardens. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, providing a perfect retreat after a day of exploration. One of the highlights of my stay was the delicious and diverse cuisine served at the hotel's restaurant. Every meal was a delightful experience, with a wide range of options to suit different tastes. The hotel's concierge was incredibly helpful, offering great recommendations for local activities and excursions. I enjoyed exploring the surrounding area, thanks to their valuable insights. Overall, my holiday at this hotel was truly unforgettable. The friendly atmosphere, excellent service, and remarkable amenities made it a perfect choice for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking to create beautiful memories on their vacation. I can't wait to return!""

"Beautiful location and views, and close to Borobudur. All staff we interacted with were super friendly and helpful. The villa we stayed in was beautiful, quiet and peaceful. The private infinity pool was a real treat at the end of the day."

"Impressed us in many aspects, including cleanliness, staff service quality, safety and the overall comfort level. The room was spacious and the bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve ever had the pleasure of sleeping on. Aircon was rather cold, but you’d rather it that way than not since it’s typically warm outside. We had an electrical outage on one night and we couldn’t use the room phone to get help; had to walk out to the corridor to use the phone. The maintenance staff came over swiftly and fixed the problem. "

"The hotel is OK but showing its age. The first two days had problems with the hot water. The TV channel lineup is disappointing for a quality hotel. I found that the buffet breakfast was mediocre. The staff were very helpful and accommodating and no complaints there."
