Who this stay suits
A four-star hotel with solid facilities — two pools, a spa, restaurant, and free parking — at a competitive price point for Yogyakarta.
Best for
- Travelers wanting a pool and spa on-site
- Guests arriving by air who need a shuttle
- Those who prefer free on-site parking
- Visitors wanting breakfast included
Less suited to
- Travelers prioritizing guest review volume when choosing
- Those seeking a budget guesthouse experience
Two pools and outdoor spaces
The hotel runs two swimming pools rather than one — an unusual provision at this price level. Outdoor furniture and a garden round out the exterior, and there is also an outdoor fireplace for cooler evenings.
Spa and wellness center
An on-site spa and wellness center is available to guests. For those who want to stay active, a fitness center is also part of the property.
Balconies across all room types
Every room category — Superior Twin, Deluxe Double, and Deluxe Twin — includes a private balcony. It is a consistent feature regardless of which room type you book, not a premium upgrade.
Garden and outdoor fireplace
The garden area includes outdoor furniture and a fireplace. These sit alongside the pool zone, giving the exterior more usable space than a typical city hotel courtyard.
