4-Star Hotels in Yogyakarta

We stayed at The Prajan Hotel & Villas for 5 nights in the beautiful Omah Manten Villa, and overall, it was a very pleasant and memorable stay. We only experienced a minor issue with the drainage, which was slightly clogged in a few areas. However, the team solved it very quickly, so it never became a major problem. One small suggestion would be to improve the bathroom floor slope, as some areas are quite flat, causing water to collect instead of flowing naturally toward the drainage. Apart from that, everything was wonderful and our stay was very comfortable. A big thank you to all the staff at The Prajan for their warm and attentive service. A special thank you to our butler, Callvin, who went above and beyond to make our stay truly memorable. He arranged everything we needed and even organized a birthday surprise for us, which was absolutely lovely and so much fun! His attention to detail and care really made a difference. We also suprised when the Teacher time he always invited us, chit chat with us event to all the guest and he remember all the name of all the guest who's coming, this is very rare. The management must be proud he working with you. Thank you, The Prajan team, for such a wonderful stay. We will definitely remember our time here fondly!

The location is not far from Malioboro. However, due to the traffic, it's difficult to walk, so it takes about a five-minute Grab ride. The lobby staff are friendly, and the breakfast spread is good with plenty of options. As for the room condition, the showerhead was a bit problematic, and in my room, I found some small ants. Luckily, they didn't reach the bedroom, but it's something to keep in mind if you're staying at the Suite Residence.

We love the location of this Hotel. Easy to walk to the nearest shopping areas. Breakfast spread is good although this is within the fasting period. Only one small comment is the Bathing room is very slippery when showering. I slipped and fall while bathing, lucky that I didn't knock on to the glass panel or the wall. Suggest to have bathing mat at the showering point. Overall for my friends and I are very satisfy with the stay at Harper Hotel.

Had to switch room, due to noisy kids running, jumping, screaming and crying, then you hear mom talking out loud and shouting, all the way till 12am, at 6:30am there awake and the whole story starts again… the second room was at the corner but the neighbor water pressure system seems to be installed right in between the wall on my bed, praying the whole night he can end up showering. It’s not the employees fault, the front desk lady. Camel did her best but overall the employees english was poor so it was hard to communicate. Plus, this is othe only hotel that doesn’t has a adaptor to borrow. The breakfast is decent and the waiter is always smiling and energetic. The location was okay with laundry, restaurants, local warungs nearby. Btw, having breakfast beside the management of the hotel helding their daily meeting was quite funny, when the meeting finishes the managers would greet you while cooking their own eggs at the station, hilarious experience.

The hotel is located on a small street, not too far from the train station, but the distance is awkward – a bit too far to walk comfortably, and taking a taxi can be a nightmare due to traffic (it took 30 minutes by taxi at 8 PM). When we were leaving Yogyakarta, it was incredibly difficult to get a taxi from the hotel; we had to wait about 20 minutes each time, and eventually ended up taking two trishaws. The room felt like an old house that had been given a quick paint job. The bathroom was quite basic, especially the shower area, which was tiny and had no door, so water sprayed everywhere, leaving the floor soaking wet. However, I'd give the service five stars. The room was cleaned thoroughly and meticulously, and the front desk staff were all very warm and responsible. The hotel breakfast was quite rich with a good variety, but it was all Indonesian style, which might not suit a Chinese palate.

I stayed for 3 nights for sightseeing. The room was spacious and clean, and I had a very comfortable stay. The staff were all very kind, and their polite and warm service left a strong impression. The location is also good, with cafes nearby which is convenient. Getting to Malioboro is also smooth if you use the bus. Furthermore, the drinks provided in the lobby were delicious, a small but welcome touch. I think it's amazing to be able to stay in a hotel of this quality for this price. If I have the opportunity to visit Yogyakarta again, I would definitely like to stay here.

If you’re planning a Jogja trip from Jakarta, skip the flight stress and take the train instead — around 7 hours - but no airport queues, no long drive to the terminal, no trek from the airport into the city centre after. Just watch the country roll by and step off right in Jogja. Location is everything here. eL Hotel Yogyakarta Malioboro is about a 12-minute walk from the train station (18 minutes by car, thanks to the one-way system), and literally one minute’s walk to Malioboro Street itself — so shopping, food, and street life are right on your doorstep. Bonus: it’s also only 15 minutes on foot to Beringharjo, the famous batik market, if you’re after souvenirs or fabric. What you get: a clean, comfortable 4-star stay with genuinely helpful staff. There’s a pool, though it’s shaded — lovely for a cool dip, not so much if you’re after a sunbathing session. The spa keeps it simple with paid massages only. Perfect if your Jogja trip is about sleeping well, staying central, and being close enough to everything to just walk out the door and explore. 📍 eL Hotel Yogyakarta Malioboro, Jl.

Stayed there for 4 nights. Spacious room and good bathroom facilities. Delicious breakfast buffet with lots of choices. Friendly and attentive staff. They were very considerate and helpful (I often used a crutch when walking). Lovely swimming pool, just a shame there are so few sun loungers in the shade.

Great hotel, in a very nice location, at a walkable distance from one of the most crowded streets of Prawirotaman, packed of nice restaurants and cool bars. The hotel is very nice, with a spacious and comfortable swimming pool. They offer massages and driver service at a higher price that local spa or Grab, but if you don't want to think about it, it's very convenient. The only negative note is about the cleaningness of the room which was not the top, with hairs of some lady in the bathroom and room floor. Apart from that I would say a great choice

Because it's hot in Jogja, I really wanted to shower from head to toe the moment I arrived at the hotel, but there was no hairdryer provided. I was afraid my hair wouldn't dry if I showered at night, and I wouldn't have time to dry it if I showered in the morning.
