Unfortunately, a bit faded

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

Aethelred TripAdvisor review

I was back at the Phoenix after five years, and I've stayed here three times before during the last decade and a half. This is still a nice place, but it has really faded - both the common areas and especially the rooms. How fabulous were those the first and second time I stayed here! Amenities, textiles, little gifts and food, just an amazing heritage hotel like a Raffles or so. This time, the heritage rooms were dusty, barren, rough and a bit spartan regarding shower and closets, an empty mini bar, and especially - just three electricity outlets, of which two were occupied by needed lamps. In 2024, in a highly digital country? Yes, it's a great hotel historically, with interesting spaces, but that also means they cater to groups and events, at the cost of hotel residents. Which, strangely, seemed to be by more than half American retired couples, kind of a sunset home atmosphere. Whereas the locals had breakfast smoking and with naked feet on the chair - maybe charming, but no, that's not usual in hotels like this here. The breakfast okay but not as good as before, not by half, and lousy machine coffee from some machine that hardly ever worked. No more gamelan music, more's the pity. The pool is gorgeous, but the water (and yes it's necessary) so chemicalized that it burns the lips. The location of the hotel isn't good - not even a small shopping place like an Indomaret in walking distance, and the hotel doesn't sell water or sandwiches or cake. If you order such things via Grab, delivery is forced to wait at the security gate and not allowed to come to the reception area, so if it rains, you get wet - gentility gone wrong. Wifi is good. Staff is friendly, excepting reception. I was here for a convention and I think the price was not bad, but surely not cheap. I actually enjoyed the place all around, but there's a lot of glitches, and I hope someone will take care of the hotel and relaunch it back to the future, which it surely deserves.

Although an older colonial hotel, we stay here every time we visit Yogjakarta. Why? Rooms with balcony are a great way to unwind after touring. The hotel even provides inroom the drink 'Wedang Uwuh" Breakfastbuffet has an extensive local & western choice. All staff are polite, well meaning and try their best to assist. No grumpiness here! We tried their spa, ladies there are kind and helpful and roomcharge is possible. Also we were impressed by hotel reception, esp. Ms.Ghita. She recognized us from previous stays, was superfluent in British English and even knew how to help us in French. We had to unexpectedly book an additional room insitu and she guided us through the whole process. Americans wishing to stay here, the airconditioning can make it artic freeze, so no worries!

Dear ROBBERT S., Thank you for your loyalty to The Phoenix Hotel Yogyakarta. It’s a pleasure to always have you staying here with us and we are glad that everything we provided truly comforting at all times.

Great stay at a historical hotel

Tamra316 TripAdvisor review

We stayed here for three nights on the first leg of our journey in Indonesia and were so pleased in every way. Our room overlooked the courtyard and had a small balcony. The hotel is stunningly beautiful with rich colonial architecture. An easy walk to Malioboro Street or catch a tuktuk. Staff are extremely attentive and friendly -- an especial commendation to Arin and Ghita for their help at the front desk. Do take advantage of the onsite spa -- we had several massages and enjoyed every one of them, which were followed by the best hot ginger tea and fresh fruit. The breakfast buffet is the biggest we have ever seen with multiple options of fruit, Western and Asian dishes. And ask for the historical tour, if you have time -- there is a special room that General Suharto used in the hotel with a little hideaway spot.

Great hotel in the center of Jogja. Fine people that really care about you. The interior is great. Breakfast buffet offer more than enough choice. And if you want to do some fine dining - possibly with guests - I can also recommend it - either outside in the garden or inside with AC. I will certainly come back again.
