    The many mosques, the curtain which was always falling out, the cabine could need a little upgrade, it‘s already worn out a little bit

    The position, the bed, the surrounding, the proximety to the temple, the friendly staff

    Don't like the smell of mothballs and the sink tends to clog. The light is dim in the room.

    Staff are all friendly and helpful. The view from the cottage is awesome. Price also includes breakfast, welcoming afternoon tea, unlimited ticket (and shuttle) to the ground of Borobudur and the first priority tour to the top of Borobudur with a guide. There's an extra option to have breakfast on the hill besides cottages with a sense of sunrise but the included breakfast at the restaurant is already abundant enough, and the place is even more closer to Borobudur.

    This hotel is located in the Borobudur park. We stayed in a log cabin located on Dagi Hill. We can see Borobudur when we look out. The environment is very quiet and blends into the atmosphere of the park. The price includes tickets and tour guide, and the staff service is very good. Recommended to stay here if visiting Borobudur. Paying extra for Picnic breakfast in the morning is also a very worthwhile experience.If you are planning to visit Borobudur, this is the best place to stay.

    Nothing, except perhaps to road leading to the cabins is very narrow. And a fair distance. I wish I could walk around the property a bit more.

    The location is exceptional, we stayed in wooden cabins on the hills overlooking Borobudur! The view is breathtaking. The stay included a guided tour of Borobudur as well, although we couldn't get the sunset visit and they stopped offering sunrise tours since covid. The breakfast is amazing too, almost too much food.

    Best location for temple lovers.

    I didn’t like the fact that prior to booking, the information on their boking site, either official website or booking, is not accurate. It’s confusing that there are two Manohara Hotel areas, one was the villa area, which were under renovation, but pictures displayed on website are confusing, so on arrival at the hotel they explained us that the villa, the ones with the amazing view of the temple, were under renovation. They should be clear about is available to book or remove other pictures in order to not confuse costumers. Another issue is that the hotel in general terms has bad communication team, or press team, etc. As the example mentioned before about the availability of the room, also prior or after booking they never inform that the price of the room includes the ticket to go to the temple (at least at February 2024), which by the way are very expensive. As they give 2 free tickets for each person (site+climbing) in order to use them we still needed to buy an extra ticket for my children, so we totally ended up having 5 tickets for a total of 3 persons and the ones we purchased prior to the arrival at the hotel, we just couldn’t get refunded at the ticket office. Although, yeah… is it s benefit that the hotel gives you, they should inform this prior or after booking your room in order not to spend so much money on tickets that, personally, I think are way overpriced for what you finally experience at the tmeple. Informing this benefit that hotel gives you., is a great marketing point that will make more passengers to stay in this hotel…. I just don’t understand why they don’t inform this, and also they are aware of many passengers having this duplicity of tickets. Ask the hotel for your free tickets!!!!

    The location is amazing, you are right next to the temple, inside the complex. Very easy to access. The hotel itself was nice in terms of layout and style. Great dining area with view to the temple and park surrounding.

    No, there is nothing can complaints.

    The hotel location is inside Borobudur area and very friendly desk. He really explained to us a lot even we were check in at 9;00pm. The hotel price including 1. afternoon tea 2. Ticket of 1 hour Borobudur tour (the next day can climb stairs) 3. Ticket can visit the garden of Borobudur 4. Breakfast.(don’t like us, check in at 9pm, miss the afternoon tea) I think is worth it, even though government is prohibit the activity of sunrise Borobudur (open at 9:00). This hotel provide very good experience and worth the hotel price. You can find peace in this hotel if you really like “Zen” atmosphere.(if you are similar traveler like me, I will recommend this place

    The only thing is the big moths at the night flying around the lights in dinner area, that is annoying . Maybe can use some special lights , trapping the flying moths . All other is good , beautiful facilities.

    Excellent location, the only one inside the Borobudur complex. The Manohara is beautiful and peaceful, so relaxing,. We glad that we stayed two nights The Driver is a very reliable and skilled, picked up from airport, to Prambanan and other two temples, and dropped us back to Yogyakarta. Thank you very much . We had a very pleasant stay .

    There is some kind of a window above the door, so it's quite lightly at night, and I prefer to sleep in dark.

    First of all, I contacted the hotel a few times to clarify some details, and the response was always fast and full. The staff is really gteat and willing to help here. The room is clean, it contains everything necessary. The terrace is so nice. The short way to the Temple is definatly a success

    It is only when they have such parties, otherwise we really liked it.

    Well located, the general tranquility of the resort (except when they have some parties in the evening with loud music) as our room is adjacent to the dining hall.
