Pakem Vacations from $972

My stay at the hotel was okay

The Royal Ambarrukmo was originally built in the 1960s by President Sukarno. Its lobby contains one of the most beautiful and largest mosaics I have ever seen. This is but one of the many details that make this elegant, well laid out, and conveniently located hotel stand out. Rooms are large and well laid out. There's a great pool and children's pool. The restaurant and dining options are among the best of any hotel in Yogya. In short, though reasonably priced, this for me is one of Yogya's best hotels -- with a great staff and management in addition.

The property offers a pleasant atmosphere that many people find enjoyable. However, it's important to acknowledge that the available services are somewhat restricted. Guests should be aware of the limited options when planning their stay.

The Rooftop Pool is wonderful with a fantastic metropolitan view over the rooftops of the city. The surrounding area is convenient for walking to the many universities and has many small Warung eateries. The room wasn't clean when we checked but the staff fixed this. The room was also quite hot due to the heat load from the sin on unprotected windows. I was there for business and the desk in room wasn't comfortable and ergonomic so I worked in the 2nd floor cafe where the tables and seats were more comfortable.
