This place was fine. It was cheap and clean but I'm pretty sure we were the only people in the whole hotel. The location is ok, but not great. the room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast looked not good so we skipped it.

The pool looked clean but we didn't use it. The breakfast was good - lots of fruits, eggs, sausages + Asian options. The room was huge , clean and comfy, lots of electrical outlets to plug in our chargers. Easy walk to Borobudur and restaurants. Grab drivers knew where it was located. The lounge area near the pool was nice. We thought we were the only Western tourists staying at the hotel when we were there. The staff was superb and very accommodating.

I returned to see Borobodur after 31 years.
I returned to see Borobodur after 31 years. It was as impressive as it was the last time. Everything around the temple is much better organized and channeled through the officials.
Still an amazing thing to do - I would recommend to read up on Borobodur before your visit to better understand all the stories behind it and its place in the Javanese and South East Asian history.

The information given by the guide is good and interesting, despite the fact that I am a Buddhist, there is much to learn from this trip. The thousand years old structure is just awesome but I must stress that anyone who wants to visit must do a little "home work" by reading up about Candi Borobudur , otherwise you might not catch some of the meaning behind the Candi and Buddhism. The Candi is fragile due to thousands of visitors and I urge everyone to visit with care and respect.

Borobudur temple is always so grand to look at and enjoyable in early morning or late afternoon. The history within the walls are just mesmerizing to look at.
After 9 am until around 3pm and on clear day, the sun gets too hot.
Having hats or umbrellas and plenty of water and sunscreen might help. But they won't stop the swarming sellers, before the entrance and after the exit, coming at you. So just be firm and polite and keep on walking if you do not want to buy anything from them. But if you do want to buy some souvenirs, you could bargain to a reasonable price.
I suggest to have a walk to the entrance stairs of the temple and don't forget to wear your comfortable walking shoes too.
This time around we took delman or horse carriage for around 5 minutes ride (less than 10 mins ride for sure) to the entrance stairs of the temple and, if not wrong, it cost around AUD20.
They also provide other services like train cars for a fee (can't remember how much), but I think it is better to hire them when you finished touring the temple and when your legs are too tired or when it's just too hot. Unless you want to explore the other facilities around (on the way to the exit) like checking out their museums and theatre.
You are not allowed to bring food or snacks into the temple complex (water is allowed). They will keep them for you to collect at the exit. So make sure you have enough food before going in.
We've never been to their restaurant/hotel in the complex, because there are plenty of choices of food just outside the complex.
For getting around outside the complex, in general, there are too many cars and motorbikes around the area, so you may want to keep walking on whatever pedestrian path available.
Cash is still preferable in the food chains and stalls outside the temple complex

Ofcourse its one of the things to see when your travels take you close to it. But it is a tourist trap. You can go in from 8.00 in the morning (not earlier anymore, like before you could go for sunrise, that is not possible anymore). You have to take a guided tour if you want to go up. The guide tells a lot about the history and is well trained. The costs are 500.000 rupiah pp. if you only walk around at the bottom it’s 350.000 rupiah. Before you leave the park you are guided through a fairly large market with touristy souvenirs.

The temple of Borobudur needs no review, it stands on his own.
New visiting rules (on 11/04/2023). Closed on monday. Reception opens on 06.30, but only for the parc. At 08.00 you can buy a ticket to go on the temple, and waiting till 09.00. Then they formed little groups of 15-20 people to go on the temple with a guide ! Visit lasts about one hour.
The Host was the friendliest and most welcoming person we have ever met.
He prepared a map with all good restaurants and shops/ATMs in the area and even wrote down some usefull indonesian phrases for ordering food.
He helped us with everything we needed and always tried his best to make our time in borobudur as pleasant as possible.
the room was very clean and the garden is beautiful. The breakfast was also good.
His home-grown Snake Friuts are delicious;)
I can highly recommend this place as you will instantly feel at home.
This hotel is a cute paradise, lost in the middle of the countryside.
Bungalows are really nice, it is very calm and relaxing. The food there is amazing. If you want to walk to the city center, this is only 20 minutes and feasible. Really. You ll see amazing sunset when passing by the other rumah dharma hotel.
The other Rumah Dharma hotel seems really nice too but we definitely had a preference for ours, more more intimate.
Take one of their bicycle to go around the village and go to wahu tipuh. Amazing there !!
we found the Borobudur area very pleasant, is sich a pity many tourists only come for the day, for us it has quite a lot to offer, visiting little temples and buddhist monastery for example. hotel was well located, the room we found very comfortable, aircon was good and mattress very nicely firm. shower perhaps needs some touches but it was ok. and the pool was super super big and truly pleasant!
the staff helped us organise everything we needed and they were very attentive.
The best thing about this hotel is exceptional service. The staff is very caring, attentive and helpful.
Location is great, the view from the room and from Sinar Hill nearby is breathtaking. It feels like time slows down there. Villa’s interior and exterior is very traditional and has its charm.
The staff helped us to organize all activities: VIP tickets to Borobudur (worth it), yoga, driver to Prambanan etc., provided complimentary transfer to nearby locations.
The property is located close to Borobudur, it’s very green and quite. They have large garden. You can rent ATV there, even though we didn’t use it. The staffs are very helpful and friendly. Our air conditioner remote didn’t work and the staff immediately changed it. The water pressure is strong and they have hot water. They provide Indonesian breakfast and we enjoyed it. The parking lot is large enough. They provide clean towels, toothbrush, soap and shampoo.
The pool looked clean but we didn't use it. The breakfast was good - lots of fruits, eggs, sausages + Asian options. The room was huge , clean and comfy, lots of electrical outlets to plug in our chargers. Easy walk to Borobudur and restaurants. Grab drivers knew where it was located. The lounge area near the pool was nice. We thought we were the only Western tourists staying at the hotel when we were there. The staff was superb and very accommodating.
My travel plans were delayed by several hours and I ended up arriving at Amata Borobudur at 1am, I gave them advanced notice and even with my insane schedule the security guard and receptionists were waiting for my arrival which I greatly appreciated after the long drive. The resort also had really nice rooms and food including one of the nicest breakfasts I've ever had in any hotel, who knew I'd end up loving chicken sausage!
This small family run hotel is a hidden gem. surrounded by rice fields, you can see Borobudur temple while you have a morning coffee. watching the sunrise here was superb experience. the staff is super helpful and friendly. they arranged transportation from Yogyakarta to the hotel and also let us use bicycles and scooter to move around the area. Definitely a good choice if you come to visit Borobudur
The unique architecture with stupa like units, spacious and plenty of lights from inside the room. Love the balcony too !
We booked in family deluxe that has 2 king beds (1 bed on 2nd floor) and have space for extra bed if needed (1st floor).
There is afternoon tea that provides good snacks and tea/coffee in room.
Very attentive hotel staffs that can also accomodate our late breakfast at 11 AM.
The estate is owned by the same company as the Jacker Tour which operates some interesting tours around the villages near Borobudur. The homestay is along the main street of Borobudur and backed by rice fields. The staff is friendly and helpful. There are supermarkets and food options nearby. We enjoyed the motorbike tour to the villages and our tour guide Nuri was a delight.
Amazing value for money, esp. when considering that afternoon tea, a visual guide, temple grounds access as well as the ticket to enter the temple with a guide are included. Nice, clean rooms, comfy beds, private terrace is also a plus. Can also recommend dnner at the resort restaurant - great variation of food at very reasonable prices. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
We were certainly pampered by the amazingly friendly, helpful and attentive staff. And it all started with an upgrade to the private Menoreh Villa with breathtaking views of the volcanoes, village and world heritage temple. Private pool, spacious room and breakfast delivered to our patio. Staff assisted with restaurant suggestions, and arrange for pick-ups.
Peaceful, clean, 7 tastefully and beautifully setup rooms set among a lush and meticulously kept garden.
It sits in the middle of a beautiful paddy fields, surrounded by traditional village houses but only 10mins walk to Borobudur.
A glimpse of Borobudur temple to the front and Merapi at the back.
Try to get villa 5, it’s the best room in my opinion.
The pool is right outside the room. This could be a problem if there are children. But for us with only 2 other guests it was fine. The room is clean and pleasant with a small veranda. The location is away from the main street so nice and quiet through the night. Good budget hotel recommend.
Everything my stay in this accommodation was nice. Great access to visiting Borobudur, Stylish and lovely room!! The best thing is there Staffs made my amazing days!! They gave me their time for me to the best trip around Borobudur and Prambanan, it was so touched my heart.
This a nice and clean place, in a very quiet surroundings, perfect to discover Borobudur and the nature around.
The owner are very helpful. Really recommended if you need a cheap place in a nice village above Borobudur
Plataran Heritage Borobudur is a modern place to stay with traditional touch.
We so much enjoyed the 1 hour morning walk around Karangrejo village with guide (Mas Prayogo) arranged by Plataran.
Top quality hotel close to Borobudur. Great rooms, nice restaurant, & a gorgeous pool, all a 5 minute walk from the entrance to one of the world's most incredible sites.
