Villa Borobudur was our second accommodation in Indonesia and it was the one we liked best. Since we arrived at the parking where our driver and guide left us because no car is allowed on the narrow and steep road to the entrance of the resort , I realised its beauty : Up the hill surrounded by a deep forest in front of the valley where Borobudur temple lies. The whole resort has an authentic Javanese style : we were in Borobudur suite which we found really charming : large, with a carved Javanese ceiling over the bed and a great attention to details.The bathroom was charming as well. The suite is on top of the hill completely surrounded by the lush jungle . The only sound was the one of the many birds . From our windows we could see the Borobudur temple : amazing! We loved the swimming pool facing the valley where the temple is. We were welcomed by a kind and lovely staff and were offered a very tasting ginger beer ! The sitting area and the bar were two “floors” down our suite and also from there the view was amazing. We dined at the restaurant in an open area always with the same lovely view of the valley and we tasted delicious Javanese food . Silence, relax , privacy and charm : this is what we were looking for and this is what villa Borobudur gave us . Anna and Francesco from Italy

The location is very good, with the green mountains at the back and Borobudur facing the city. There is also a volcanic scenery in the distance, which is absolutely beautiful! The service is at the same level as Aman, and it feels like home. The dining is very authentic, with a variety of choices, which is great!

I booked a simple room for 2 nights and i was deeply disappointed after staying for 2 nights in Rumah Dharma in Borobudur. So i decided to make an upgrade for a Panorama Villa with private pool. And yes ... it was worth to do that step. Finally it was a nice stay there. Staff was very nice and very friendly ... like all people i met on Java Island and they tried to do their best to help for all questions. We had one dinner their and i missed to enjoy a glass of wine ... or at least a beer with dinner. The view from the Villa is very nice with an overview of the ricefields to the Borobudur Temple. To me, the Villa with pool was a little bit overprized. But finally much better than the other rooms. You need at least a motorbike, as the hotel is a little outside of Borobudur. But to discovery the surrounding it is anyway the best to have a car or motorbike. We also booked a car to bring us to the airport at this hotel. And everything worked very well.

We spent three nights at Gopalan. The first night was a bit shaky, but not because of the hotel. There was an intermittent power outage in Borobodur. Dadang, the night manager, calmly helped us and even upgraded our room. His calming influence was a sign of things to come. Maria, the hotel manager, arranged our trip to the Borobodur Temple with a fantastic guide, Udin. She arranged Javanese massages with two expert therapists. Our driver, Teddy, arranged by Maria for our rides back and forth to Yogyakarta, was sort of a mini tour guide himself. Room was nice, a bit spartan, but fine. WiFi worked nicely, Good swimming pool. Solid cable TV. Restaurant was surprisingly good for both breakfast and dinner. Try the avocado with egg for breakfast, and the Indonesian noodles were excellent for dinner. And you're out in the country, with a working farm out your front door, and just a 20 minute walk to the Temple. Recommend highly for those seeking a relaxed atmosphere and adventure amid the Indonesian noise and pollution. Rustic, but pretty sophisticated. Great spot for walking.

Me and my wife just stayed in Amrta Borobudur a few days ago. We were driving and on our way back from Yogya to Jakarta after visiting a family. And we thought staying a night or two in Borobudur area would be nice. We were quite flexible on timing and didnt really have itinerary. After going around Borobudur area, looking at one hotel to another, we found this small hotel, close to entrance of Borobudur temple and with a great view. My wife checked the review on Tripadvisor and felt its a good hotel for us. And we really love this hotel. Its quite small; only having around 10 rooms and cottages. But it's strategically located; near Borobudur, not far from small traditional restaurants. And it had padi fields view. We chose Arjuna room (or shoukd I say cottage?), which was quite large and had its own terrace facing padi fields. The interior of the room was designed using java traditional style but the amenities were modern. Bathroom was large and hot water ran well. I would just like to suggest that they put glass in the shower instead of curtain. I was quite amazed with their attention to detail of the building. They also had a lounge with nice view. On one side you could see padi fields, on other side you could see coconut trees, and another side facing nice pool. We really enjoyed our stay there. The staffs were also very kind and attentive. We would like to thank mas Dani who was very helpfull and cared. With staffs like these, I believe many visitors would love to stay there. It's very sad that the pandemi has hit Indonesia tourism industry very badly. During our trip in Java, we were always the only guest in the hotel, including in this hotel. I really hope they will survive this challenge. So that many people would have a chance to visit and stay in this beautiful hotel and experience their hospitality. For us, for sure we would like to return again someday...
