Villas in Gedongtengen

"Poor. I don’t usually write reviews, I booked this hotel as I have stayed in Hyatt’s around the world, this is by far the worst. Staff poorly trained, trying to order room service on the phone was impossible as they didn’t understand. The pool was dirty. Staff more concerned with the Ramadan buffet guests who are not staying at the hotel rather than their actual guests. Alcohol is also an issue here, we asked for a bottle of wine to take to our room and we were present with it in a black bag like it was contraband!! Serve alcohol or don’t, but don’t make western guests feel guilty for ordering something on the menu. Finally the rooms are poor, clearly not upgraded since the 80’s, there is however a refurbishment program underway which is long overdue. "

"Great hotel"

"This so far has been the worst hotel during our long trip to Asia. The hotel is closed to a mosque and everyday we were woken up at 4:30 am during the praying call. It was not disclose to us and to anyone who is a light sleeper it was not so good. I didn’t have a good sleep for my tour the next day and end up with a huge migraine. The hotel does have a policy to charge you for extra towels. I’ve never been to a hotel that charges extra for towels!!!"

"On the surface, this is a modern hotel with reasonable facilities. However, there are loads of pros and cons. The rooms are a little bit worn, staff don’t speak that much English and most of the clients are Indonesian. Breakfasts offer loads of choice: two rice options, one noodle, a veg stir-fry and a fish or chicken dish, plus several buburs (porridges), simple cakes and pastries, plus fresh fruit. But the coffee and tea are weak and lukewarm – barely drinkable; I ended up walking to the central Tugu station nearby to get coffee from the convenience store. Also, the building next door to the hotel is a church, and at weekends you'll have to put up with the band at evening service, not to mention a 6 am (!) band rehearsal on Sunday followed by more music. Overall I had an OK and very affordable stay, but it could have been much better if the management paid more attention to details."

"Excellent service! Nice buffet spread! Right beside a big mall."

"A step back in time, but with modern values . Phoenix seem to balance it perfectly. "

"There is constant noise pollution and rooms are not sound proof. The rooms are in need of a makeover and serious deep clean. Areas such as the bathroom shower had green buildup and toilet seats were beige in color from age. Two of the major issues that I encountered in my two week long stay at the property was poor wifi service and inconsistent hot water availability. These are major problems that the hotel management needs to address."

"The rooftop was awesome, breakfast very good, i will stay here again if i visit jogja "

"The basement parking entrance & space are p0very tight. I suggest to have a better design for the transport parking facility."
