5-Star Hotels in Central Java, Indonesia

We were given a room on the 10th floor. Walking through the hotel's spacious hallway, the elegant, fragrant scent made us even more excited to find our room number. We opened the door and wow, the room was incredibly spacious! The bed was comfortable, the sheets smelled great, and the bathroom was also quite roomy. We really love this hotel! It's just a short walk to Paragon Mall.

I was delighted by the wide variety of items at the breakfast buffet, and especially enjoyed the local specialties. The staff were also very kind and helpful, offering great recommendations for nearby attractions, which I really appreciated. Thanks to them, I had a wonderful trip. I would definitely love to stay here again if I travel to the area in the future.

The hotel is excellent, clean, and has complete facilities. The Kids Club offers many activities for children. Ms. Sella from reservations was incredibly helpful. The salon facilities are good, and the service is excellent, especially from Ms. Firda and Ms. Nining. Breakfast has a wide variety and everything is delicious. Overall, 5 stars for everything! - Henny

Away from the hustle and bustle of yogya. Being in the city can be overwhelming, hence this location is just right, surrounded by nature - birds, clouds and an amazing view. The location is super interesting because the car has to go through so many winds through the village. If U take a morning jeep tour, the jeep will fetch U from the villa with the car top exposed and you can feel the wind in your hair, absorbing the peace from th village and fresh air. They also have a massage, quite expensive but worth it at 450,000 idr per hour. The geckos can be loud at night but that's nature. They have an amazing pool that oversees borobodur and Yogyakarta. The villa door has some ants but I think it's because of the wood? The junior room suite villa roof feels a bit hollow because we can hear the birds jumping and squawking on top of it in the early evening. Food is not fantastic, especially their breakfast. But since they locally produce long beans, try their long beans. It's crunchy and fresh. Their grilled ayam chicken rice is good too. Their sambal, however, is a must try. Fresh, spicy, tangy! At night, you can hear adzan, which is call for prayer, across the whole of Yogyakarta. An amazing and holy experience.

love every part of this hotel, during all my hop on and hop off hotels this past years, this Gumaya hotel has met a good standard in most of aspects, especially the breakfast. im so suprised find hotel that the breakfast food taste delicious in all the stalls (usually will be too salty, too bland or just bleh..) but at gumaya, we are like travelling to each own traditional food restaurant, the authentic gudeg, the very nice lumpia and ikan bandeng, the warm soto ayam semarang and the homemade jamu and juices. all is excellent.

The thoughtful room decoration and complimentary cake for our special occasion made our stay feel truly memorable. It was a wonderful gesture that we really appreciated. The bed was huge and incredibly comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep, and the breakfast was excellent with a fantastic selection of delicious food. We had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

After booking, I contacted the hotel to arrange the pick-up and other transportation. The hotel responded to the email promptly. The car and driver were also the hotel's own car. Because the hotel is located in the countryside and is relatively remote, I dare not Grab it myself. It turns out that the hotel's car and driver service are very satisfactory. The pick-up in Yogyakarta city is 850,000, and the delivery to Borobudur and waiting, and then the delivery to Yogyakarta hotel is 1300,000.

Booked the hotel because of the playground and swimming pool. It is an old hotel with wood accents. Room was quite spacious but the bed sheet was old and lot of brown stain. Can see several bugs in the humid area. Stay 3 nights. Second night, hot water was not working. Called the maintenance but it took 30 minutes for them to come. Asked hair dryer to front desk and took 20 minutes to come. Swimming pool is warm water, but very cold in the morning. It was okay, should be cleaned more frequently because lot of leaves and flowers. The down side, when the pools are crowded, saw some men smoking near the playground. Playground is spacious, but started getting old. There are patchy areas in the grass carpet. The slide area is not slippery anymore, some slides even too slippery, saw some kids slip in the sitting position and complained get hurt. The breakfast selection was not many, but most of them delicious. Especially in the egg station, the (seems like trainee) staff make my egg very delicious!

Perfectly located with old-world charm! The Royal Surakarta Heritage wins big on location—right in the heart of Solo, steps from shopping, dining, and cultural spots. The breakfast spread is fantastic: authentic Javanese dishes alongside international favorites, all fresh and flavorful. But the real star is the staff—incredibly helpful, always smiling, and quick to assist with anything; from coffee at breakfast to extra towels and water for the room. Rooms are clean and comfortable, though a bit classic in style (which fits the heritage vibe). Grab around town to almost anywhere is around INR20K. If you want convenience, great food, and warm service without the fuss, this is your spot.

Everyone was friendly..Staff were helpful and polite..They greeted you everytime they see you..Some even offered to assist you even though if you didn’t ask.Service was simply perfect,no complains! Gym and pool were under maintenance.Construction was going on at the main hotel.Wasn’t aware of the maintenance till you checked in (Maintenance Notice placed on room table).Maybe updates should be reflected on third party apps or via whatsapp to avoid disappointment. Wifi was poor.For a well rated hotel,this was a huge letdown.Management & maintenance should look into this.Was staying at room 806.Not sure if other floors or rooms are encountering this problem.Ended up using data roaming through my 3 days there.
