Java Villas Boutique Hotel & Resto

Gorgeous property.. nicely decorated.. the pool was in a gorgeous location on the middle of the open hotel. Beautiful black iron lighting and railing. Wooden anterior. Very old colonial charm

We loved the property

Pleasant

The hotel was wonderful up until now. But recently guests are no longer allowed to smoke outside their rooms, outside in the fresh air, where they won't disturb anyone. Signs prohibiting smoking for customers? You feel like you're being treated like a little child. Such a shame about this previously wonderful hotel!

Very nice and affordable. Clean rooms and good servis. Thank you

The location is great for exploring Yogyakarta and nightlife. We really enjoyed the pool and the beds super comfy. The staff was friendly and always available, a special thank to Hani. The massage service was top too!

What a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere this charming, small hotel has. This isn’t just due to its unique design and styling, but also thanks to the exceptionally professional, proactive, and helpful team. Where else would staff run after you with an umbrella as you head outside, “just in case it might rain”?The rooms are delightful and impeccably maintained: a comfortable bed, a quiet and efficient air conditioner, a well-equipped bathroom – everything was just right. On top of that, we only had to take three steps from our room to enjoy a refreshing dip in the lovely, cool swimming pool. In short, it was a truly exceptional stay.However, there was one major frustration: the lack of reliable Wi-Fi. As travelers, we constantly rely on access to information about destinations, tickets, reservations, and, of course, news from home. Although Wi-Fi was available, it was only accessible via a portal that required us to repeatedly log in with a username and password. Even if we simply set our phone down for a moment, we had to go through the login process again before continuing. This system was very inconvenient and frustrating.For us, this could even be a reason not to book here again, had we known about it in advance. I shared my feedback about this issue with the staff and also provided them with a written explanation, including a suggestion for a suitable technical solution. The team promised me they would address this problem and make improvements.

The WiFi network

It has a good location - lots of street food and restaurants / coffee shops nearby

It’s dirty - they do not clean well enough - when I arrived the toilet in my room was extremely dirty from the previous guests - the bathroom and room itself need a good cleaning - but they don’t seem to have an interest keeping the place clean - seeing how dirty the room was I definitely did not want to use the pool or eat any of their food. When I complained the said sorry but that was it - it’s a shame because it’s a beautiful building but they just seem to be interested in making money instead of investing in the place to keep it nice and tidy.

Lovely traditional hotel, beautiful surroundings. The pool was fantastic, and the bar/breakfast staff very friendly and attentive, as were all the staff. Food menu was good, something for everyone.Loved the a la carte breakfasts.Nice balcony seating outside each room.Loved the location, only a few minutes walk to restaurants bars etc playing live music

Shower hit and miss, hot water was a bonus!

Nice interior, helpful staff and good breakfast.

Nothing, it was as expected.

We enjoyed our stay at Java Villas. Location is great (we prefer over Malioboro region), super just one block to Prawirotaman street. The hotel is beautiful and comfortable. We felt like it was almost private - super quiet and reserved. Breakfast was included, which was also great. We really recommend it.

Nothing to mention

Breakfast was always good, but I missed them serving eggs.

The rooms are of an old world ambiance which I really liked. However I went to use the bathroom and I got locked in. They had to destroy the lock so I could get out. They changed us to another room. But what if, my girlfriend was not in the outer room? No one could have heard me and I would have been trapped inside for days. They need to put a phone inside the bathroom area.

Great taste in interior design, awesome room. Breakfast was real good too (specially the buffet breakfast we had the last day), the employees were super warm and responsive, i’m glad I stayed here for our 3 nights in Yogy.

Honestly no complaints whatsoever, cheers to whoever put this together.

Absolutely loved the courtyard garden pool and eclectic decor. Room was big with really comfortable beds and great furniture. The style of building is so cool!!! Also really good location with laundry, shops and restaurants all very close by. Buffet style breakfast with variety of foods

I wish the pool stayed open later than 6pm

very beautiful hotel with wonderful pool and nice rooms. breakfast is a bit limited if you do not like rice in the morning. would bookagain!

The staff is friendly and kind, and very helpful. The overall look of the place is beautiful and unique. They have spent a lot of time and effort on the asthetics of the outdoors.

The rooms (we stayed in two) were old, outdated, and full of moldy, dusty, dirty, cigarette burned furniture. On the ground floor it was hard to stomach the room for the musty smell,even with air conditioning. To note the only windows in all the rooms are to the interior (dark) of the hotel. They have no screens or glass,so closed for mosquitos and privacy the rooms are pitch dark.I am certain no one cleaned any part of the bathrooms between stays. There was soap scum and toothpaste remnants, sticky drips of who knows what. The sheets were stained and old.The breakfast was put out at 7am and cold instantly. They never refilled it, so if you were up late you were left with the worst of it. I'm still confused how this place was so well rated. It is a shame to have to review so low, but reviews support guests to make informed choices.

Amazing place for serenity and pleasure with my family. We enjoyed great hospitality, clean and comfortable rooms. Staff team is supportive, helpful and kind. We all recommend wholeheartedly this location as your Yogyakarta oasis :)))

Breakfast offering could be improved.

It was close to my work-place. Walkable so it’s nice. Also close to our fav restos. The pool is big enough - good for exercise.

Not, that we did not like. Only that i had to remind or ask them to clean our room a couple of times. Nit that bothering, but sometimes we expected we came back to our room clean.

Staff friendly

Bad breakfast, bathroom breaking down. To dark lightings in the room

Good

The continental breakfast is under expectations. A very strange "bread cooked with milk" should be totally recalled.Indonesian breakfast is OK.

Pool was good, clean room

AC hardly worked, upon complaining the staff was quick to change our room, but in the other room also the AC didn't cool the room.

Lovely hotel with absolutely super friendly staff. Very relaxing sat by the pool with a beer. Good value and tucked away down a nice quiet street off a main road.

The shower was a little temperamental.
