Great heritage hotel with beautiful antique furniture and Chinese beds.

Very limited services. They closed the restaurant at 8pm whilst we were still showering and because the hotel is in a bit of a run down area, nothing else was open. We had to eat instant Pot Noodles in our room 😩

Everything. It was a magical step back in time, a historical landmark with beautiful antique furniture and antiquities everywhere. We felt very very lucky to stay there. Gorgeous four poster comfy bed. Delightful staff and excellent food. Would absolutely love to stay here again. Lovely artisan gallery with ceramics and batik collection as well as a contemporary art gallery attached.

It is a little far from the main city area and was hard to get transport - but no problem if you just get a scooter or organise taxis. It is very quiet compared to the city hotels. It is near a mosque like all the hotels in Jogja, so bring some earplugs for the early morning prayers

the building, the breakfast, the location (near eatery and market)

The receptionist was cute

Nothing

Royal Heritage? More like a royal rip off. This hotel was priced higher than normal so we thought that the quality would be good. The first warning signs came during the check in. Despite us checking in quite late at around 6pm, we were made to wait for close to 45 minutes for the room to be ready. When we finally got the keys and entered the room, we were shocked. Imagine the shoddiest motel you can find in the 1990s; the room looked and smelled like that. The bedsheets were stained with some unknown yellow substance, and all towels were dirty and moldy. My boyfriend started to get an allergic reaction from the mildew, and we could barely sleep the whole night. When we complained about the cleanliness, a staff reluctantly changed the sheets. When I showed him that the towel was dirty, he brought it to a brighter place and pretended to need to squint to see the dirt, which was BS because the towel dirt stain were so bad they were visible under any lighting. Overall, avoid at all costs, unless you dig the haunted house vibes.

Such an beautiful place and the loveliest staff!
