Review of The Amrta Borobudur 3*

Harry B

8/10
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…
