    I really enjoyed staying here. The rooms are clean and fresh water is provided everyday. The breakfast was really delicious and varying meals are freshly cooked everyday. The owner is so kind and friendly and helped me organize a tour. Plus the location is very good. Overall I highly recommend staying here and I would definitely come back!

    This small hotel was really nice. All of the family and staff were helpful and nice. The garden was for everyone to use and was a really relaxing place. The location is wonderful and you could wander around starting at the hotel and meet nice local people and come across small restaurants. The room was good, the bed was really nice, Airco worked great. The bathroom was quite simple, but it worked out for us.

    The owner Julie and her family are truly lovely people who provided such a warm welcome to their beautiful home. The property and garden are so colourful and vibrant. Local Indonesian breakfast were provided which were all excellent and catered for our very early schedules. We were even given a pack up on the day we left. Julie helped organise a tour to the temples.

    Nothing. It was all great!

    My husband and I have stayed in Rumah Gandrung for 4 nights, whilst in Yogyakarta. Our check in time had to be changed for late evening due to delayed flight. On arrival our host was friendly and has received our arrival with the biggest smile despite the late check in time. Her smile and kindness has stayed throughout our stay. Both hosts were extremely helpful to accommodate us by helping us rent a motorbike and find laundry facility. The room was lovely and clean and the breakfast was fabulous every single morning. We have received fresh coffee and freshly made traditional Indonesian/Javanese dish every morning, which was on a restaurant level of excellence. On our day of leaving, our hosts have prepared our breakfast in takeaway boxes so we could take it with us on our long journey which was a nice touch and very helpful. If you are staying in Yogyakarta, we definitely recommend you to stay in Rumah Gandrung, you will not regret it!

    We really enjoyed our stay at Rumah Gandrung. The family was really friendly and smiley and was always available for anything. They serve a delicious traditional breakfast that varies every day as well as coffee or tea. The room was a perfect size for the two of us and we were very comfortable. The Wi-Fi worked very well. One thing to note is there is no hot water in the shower. The location is ideal for exploring Yogyakarta on foot or by car. There are attractions reachable on foot such as the Kraton, Taman Sari and Malioboro Street. It’s also perfect for reaching Yogyakarta airport (YIA) in just 1h by car as you don’t have to cross the city.

    The only bad thing is that the water in the shower is cold, but it’s hot outside so it’s not that bad ;)

    Very friendly family running the place, they gave us delicious breakfast every day and even dinner or lunch when we weren’t there for the breakfast! They helped with our laundry and transport. The room is nice and good enough for the price. If we ever come back to Jogja we will stay here!

    We originally booked 2 nights but ended up staying 4 nights. We loved it so much !!! This family loves plants and architecture. You will feel like in a movie, probably the hobbit’s village. Having breakfast and seeing the sun shining on all these flowers is just amazing and relaxing !! Hope that we will be back one day ❤️ thank you again for the gift, I will wear it forever

    Best guesthouse in Yogyakarta! The family is so welcoming and will help you organize your days in the city. Breakfast was really yummy and different every single day. We even had the chance to have a traditional dish usually made for special occasions. We felt life home. We will remember you forever ❤️

    I was asked for a copy of my booking confirmation right after booking which is highly unusual. It would be better if they didn't do that.

    Friendly staff that made sure there was anything I needed, even provided super glue for me to fix my shoes.

    One of the best places I have ever stayed in! The family running this place is so friendly and really goes out of their way for you. The room is being cleaned every day and the place in general is one of a kind. The breakfast was different everyday and tasted amazing! Would absolutely recommend for your stay in Jogja

    There was a mosque nearby which is quite loud in the night (but I can imagine this is the case all around Jogja). There also was a cat that made a lot of noise, not sure if was a neighbours cat or theirs. The bathroom also wasn’t super clean but is was okay.

    The host family was SUPER friendly. They helped us with any questions we had and helped us rent a scooter. The breakfast truly was amazing and we could even take it away when we wanted to leave early. Would recommend this if you stay in Jogja. Cleaned room every day.

    Some ants in the room, one has to be a bit careful with food. The water tap was not working well.

    Extremly friendly owner who makes daily changing Indonesian breakfast and helped us with our laundry. Good starting point to explore Yogyakarta as well as Prambanan and Borobudur. Free drinking water is provided.
