![Batik (Javanese pronunciation: [ˈbateʔ]; Indonesian: [ˈbatɪk]) is a technique of wax-resist dyeing applied to whole cloth, or cloth made using this technique. Batik is made either by drawing dots and lines of the resist with a spouted tool called a canting (IPA: [ʈ͡ʂantiŋ], also spelled tjanting), or by printing the resist with a copper stamp called a cap (IPA: [ʈ͡ʂap], also spelled tjap). The applied wax resists dyes and therefore allows the artisan to color selectively by soaking the cloth in one color, removing the wax with boiling water, and repeating if multiple colors are desired.
A tradition of making batik is found in various countries, including Nigeria, China, India, Malaysia, Philippines and Sri Lanka; the batik of Indonesia, however, is the most well-known. Indonesian batik made in the island of Java has a long history of acculturation, with diverse patterns influenced by a variety of cultures, and is the most developed in terms of pattern, technique, and the quality of workmanship. On October 2009, UNESCO designated Indonesian batik as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

These batik clothes are sold at one of the high end hotel's gift shop in Yogyakarta. They are hand drawn and painted and hence command a high price! It ranges over US$200 although some cheap batik at the market can be found for a mere US$2. The difference lies in the quality, the design and also the amount of skill that's needed to make them.
Common batik wear are made from cotton. The ones shown here are silk and limited in quantity produced.
Yogyakarta and Surakata (Solo) are two cities where batik originated in Indonesia.

"Very dusty rooms/Floor. Hair on the blanket. No AC, called and was told that it will be cool at night, but it was hot. A lot of Mosquitos.
Advertised on hotels.com with free minibar, Nothing.
No welcome drink, given the next morning after asked. May be due to almost midnight arrival.
Vegetable side on breakfast plate was spoiled.
For the price range, not worth it.
Pro : free bicycle. Hotwater for shower. Cute little garden in the back. Great homemade tea."

"Walau agak tersembunyi dari jalan utama, letaknya di lokasi yang popular untuk turis luar negeri, guest house tradisional cocok untuk bernostalgia Yogya jaman dulu. kamar yang bersih, nyaman (hanya kamar mandinya kecil). Tempat parkir hanya cukup untuk 2 mobil (atau parkir dipinggir jalan Prawirotaman)"

"Sebenarnya tempatnya sangat nyaman. Dekat kealun2, malioboro, gembira loka. Kalau naik taksi online cuma 11-18rb. Depan hotel ada minimarket, tempat makan juga dekat. Hanya saja kamar saya kmrin remote ac nya mati jd kedinginan, gada sendal hotel, dan masih ada kertas di laci yg tulisannya kasar. Mungkin dri tamu sebelumnya. So far, so good. "

"The hotel needs to update its facilities because it is already too old. It does not live up to it’s 4-star hotel status. We booked it hoping that we will have a wonderful experience in a 4-star hotel, but we were very disappointed with the quality of room we had. They need to upgrade the hotel and compete with other 4-star hotels in the city."
