From the outside, it looked very impressive, I thought I was going back to the imperial times in Indonesia. The staff were friendly but the superior rooms are anything but. The bathrooms are a disaster of very poor design and decoration. Probably a hangover from the roman times. It would make a good family hotel as the swimming pool looked... More

Only look good in brochures, the exterior may look fancy but missed in details. I found the room was rather small than expectation, with minor furnitures eror. The bathroom is really small, the Floor is dirty. Towel and pillows are too perfumed, make you dizzy to smell them. Overall i think this hotel is too pricey for it facilities and... More

good and clean hotel, quite far from busy Malioboro area at the town, food choices around that area is limited, however the staff services are responsive, those tuk-tuk waiting in front of hotel offers quick transport, too bad the hotel don't offer any tour package or help arranging trips

I spent 2 nights in the Grand Palace, Jogja, Feb'12, while discovering Prambanan and Borobudur.

Despite the friendly smiles of the front desk staff, their only credit card machine didn't work when I checked-in, so had to put down USD 100 as deposit. The room was of good-size... More

Nice hotel near prawirotamanstreet. very clean and helpfull employees.

We ended up at this hotel, because the place where we actually wanted to stay (Pondok Terra) was not available until the next day. The Grand Palace was very close by, so we took a chance figuring we were only staying 1 night. Frankly, the outside looks like some pompous Roman style monstrosity, totally out of place in Yogyakarta in... More

Me and my family stayed in this hotel at April 7th, 2012. First impression : luxurious hotel with roman-style architecture. Check-in was fast and easy. The staffs were very helpful and friendly. We checked-in at around 6 pm. I was hoping to get a nice hot-shower as soon as I get to my room. But disappointed. Because the hot-water shower... More

It was not on the main tourist area, but it was close enough ride to the city center by a cheap taxi or becak (rickshaw with the driver in the back). The hotel was grand and beautiful with a Greek flair. It has an open area lobby that leads to the swimming pool at the center of the hotel. The... More
