Located in Yogyakarta, 2.7 miles from Sultan's Palace, Sleepy Raccoon Hostel provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

I stayed at the Sleepy Raccoon 🦝 a week in March and couldn’t have chosen a better place. The hostel is situated close enough to the city for easy access to food and sites but tucked away so as to remain quiet. Facilities are good and kept clean and the common areas give you many choices for how to study, relax, or commune with others.

Located in Yogyakarta, 1.9 miles from Fort Vredeburg, Omah Manis provides accommodations with a fitness center, free private parking and a shared lounge.

Such a nice and friendly place! Spacious room with a desk and enough space for the two of us. The room had a kettle and a fridge plus you can use the microwave in the kitchen area located on each floor. There's also a pool we didn't use. The staff were wonderful and helped out whenever we had an issue. Left us a breakfast box in the morning since we were leaving at 5 am. The breakfast was delicious, local food + European options to choose from.

I came here directly from the station under the drizzle morning with my friend around 7 am. We were greeted warmly by the front officer Sis Nira. Eventhough the check in time was still several hours ahead, we were welcomed to use the lobby guest facilities such as the shared kitchen, water dispenser, the fridge to put some food, shared bathroom, pool and the muslim praying room (mushalla). When we finally got into our room (family room), I was surprised that they accomodated us with free water bottles, toiletries and towels. It's really affordable, comfortable and clean alhamdulillah. Thanks a lot. Definitely would like to stay here again if we visit Jogjakarta again.

    We’ve stayed for one week at snooze. Rooms and shared spaces are very clean! The garden is beautiful, breakfast was very good. Environment is quiet and very relaxed. The service was outstanding. With everything they offer help and gave advice and assistance on sightseeing and activities. We were sick during a few days and we wouldn’t have want other place to stay. Those girls backed us up! They are all angels. overall it was the best hostel experience we had.

    Great location. 10 min walk to main areas. The host was so lovely! Couldn't have been nicer! Great breakfasts every morning. Tasty omelet first morning, then when we found out we were keen for Indonesian food, got some excellent rice, noodle and broth dishes. Felt like a secure and safe accommodation.

    We were super satisfied with our stay at this accommodation—maybe it’s the best hostel I’ve ever been to. 🏨💚 The place is lovingly decorated, with beautiful plants everywhere and a great overall layout. 🌿 The rooms are small and simple but very nice. 🛏️ The location is perfect—right next to cozy cafes and restaurants, and you can walk everywhere. ☕🍽️ The staff gives excellent tips and doesn’t push expensive tours on you. 🗺️ They also rent out high-quality scooters. 🛵 We felt super comfortable here. Thank you so much for everything! 🙏😊

    The rooms were basic but okay. Beds were quite comfortabel and the shower was warm. The staff were really nice and were staying up late to drink some beers and play some music. The backpackers feeling was really nice and it was the perfect place to meet new people in Yogyakarta. The pool was also a nice addition.
