Istana Batik Ratna - Yogyakarta

This friendly hotel is one street south of the main railway in Jogjakarta and being nearer to the south entrance of the station was ideal for catching long distance executive trains. The restaurant/cafe was open at all times which was ideal. The staff were friendly and helpful.

The location, just 200m from Jl. Malioboro.

Breakfast was very basic. Shower head needed replacement.

While the rooms are basic, they are clean and adequate in size. The terraces, restaurant and pool areas are very inviting. It was pleasant drinking coffee with friends outside our rooms or taking a dip in the pool. This hotel is within easy walking distance of the main shopping street and the backpackers' lanes, where there are some good places to eat as well as a few convenience stores.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Decoration of the lobby and restaurant very nice, traditional Indonesian style. Excellent location, easy walk to restaurants, bars, sights.

Facilities a bit old. Shower not enclosed so it makes the whole bathroom wet. No refrigerator No hot water kettle for making tea or coffee.

Excellent set up with good ambiance in a good location.

cleanliness must be up graded

small bed.

Friendly and helpful staff; swimming pool a real bonus in the heat; great location next to the little Gang 2 and its restaurants. Good, quiet air con and very comfortable beds ensured refreshing sleep.

The rooms were unnecessarily bare; dull wall colour and no decoration (in a city renowned for its arts...). The shower was too thin and weak to effectively wash and rinse hair. The road-side front of the hotel is also shabby and needs potted greenery to make it look more inviting.

Very helpful staffs. Always with a smile. Location is great when I am traveling with a friend who shop 20 hrs a day. ......

Good location for visiting the city and the monuments : Borobodur , Prambanan ...and all the workshops for batiks , silver , wood ...

friendly staff, nice garden and pool, but very basic rooms. And, sorry, cockroaches!

The Location is great, just a few metres from the main street. The breakfast is very good!!

The hotel is good, but for the price could be better. The room is very basic, and the bathroom was bad.

It's location. It's next to the train station so one can take a train from/to the airport. It's very close to Malioboro, the main shopping area.

There's nothing for vegetarians in the breakfast menu except bread, butter, jam. The wash basin drainage was a problem.

Located in the city centre, great rooms all situated around the pool, friendly staff

Staff, swimming pool. Comfort & cleanliness were good considering the budget.

Rooms close to Pasar Kembang street can suffer a lot of noise

The staff were very friendly and helpful

The hotel itself was full and clearly could not cope with the large number of people staying there, the pool area is small, breakfast was average, the front rooms are very noisy and the very front room is literally located in the reception foyer. Not particularly cheap (although maybe it is in the off season). A shame because the hotel staff were very friendly, helpful and assisted us in every way they could.
