Hyatt Regency Yogyakarta

The outdoor facilities are fantastic! The pool has slides and a rope swing, plus there's a dedicated fish pond for fishing (you can easily catch 5 fish in a minute). They offer free bikes for adults, kids, and even bikes with child seats. There are also some small outdoor play structures and a few games. From the lobby, you get a great view of Mount Merapi – perfect for adults to enjoy while kids can feed the fish. As for the indoor environment, the room type I originally booked was indeed much cheaper, but it felt like a guesthouse from 20 years ago. After staying for three nights, I upgraded on the spot the morning of the second day. The upgrade cost an additional 800,000 Indonesian Rupiah (around 300+ RMB) for two days. The upgraded room was very new.

Although the hotel's location is a bit far from the city center, the environment is very peaceful. Combined with the hotel's design, it's a great choice for a relaxing getaway.

The hotel is quite old and outdated, but for the peak season, the price is just about acceptable.
