"My recent stay at Novotel Suites Yogyakarta Malioboro was truly one of the best hotel experiences I have had in Indonesia. From the moment I arrived until the day I checked out, everything exceeded my expectations. The hotel perfectly combines modern luxury, Javanese hospitality, comfort, and an unbeatable location right in the heart of Yogyakarta. The first impression matters, and this hotel did not disappoint. The check-in process was smooth, fast, and professional. The staff welcomed me with genuine smiles and warm Indonesian hospitality. They were polite, helpful, and always ready to assist with any questions. Every staff member I met — from the reception team to housekeeping and restaurant staff — showed excellent service standards. They made me feel valued and respected as a guest. If you need help with tours, transportation, or recommendations, they are very knowledgeable and supportive. Thank you so much Rodhan gurung and Kunsang gurung 😆😆😆"

"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"

"The room need update little bit about the charging area like need usb charger and stuff like that, also i find some spot need maintainace"

"Spotless and spacious room with private plunge pool, very sweet and accommodating staff, mini bar refreshments and snacks all complimentary, free photo taken with traditional Indonesian dress was a nice touch. The location is well outside the city but rather have it quiet than noisy. Yogyakarta is quite busy."

"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!!!"

"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. "

"Clean, beautiful hotel. "
