The shops and the shopping malls are very closed by . The staffs are very friendly .
The only thing the hotel need to fix is changing the thin toilet paper to better one.

My recent stay at Novotel Suites Yogyakarta Malioboro was truly one of the best hotel experiences I have had in Indonesia. From the moment I arrived until the day I checked out, everything exceeded my expectations. The hotel perfectly combines modern luxury, Javanese hospitality, comfort, and an unbeatable location right in the heart of Yogyakarta. The first impression matters, and this hotel did not disappoint. The check-in process was smooth, fast, and professional. The staff welcomed me with genuine smiles and warm Indonesian hospitality. They were polite, helpful, and always ready to assist with any questions.

Every staff member I met — from the reception team to housekeeping and restaurant staff — showed excellent service standards. They made me feel valued and respected as a guest. If you need help with tours, transportation, or recommendations, they are very knowledgeable and supportive. Thank you so much Rodhan gurung and Kunsang gurung 😆😆😆

Location is fantastic, right smack at Jl Malioboro, 10-min walk from the train station, 15-min walk to Mbah Satinem (you gotta eat her breakfast! truly good, not just for the sentimental reasons). We stayed for 5-nites and got a few check-out gifts, which I have never received from any hotels that I've stayed at (nada from Westin, Marriott, Hilton, Ritz, ever!). The only complaints are pricey foods/drinks at poolside areas. There are free-to-use bikes onsite. No issues encountered during the stay, happy with the services!

Everyone and everything is great. Zalfa at check in was par excellence and also helped in making train reservation for me. The area is bustling with stores, live music bands, food, horse carriages and what not. Excellent area to stay in. Zalfa also helped in extending our stay for one more night. Highly recommend.

The hotel was fine. The room was good value. Breakfast was OK. The mall next to the hotel has few interesting shops but does have a couple of useful supermarkets. Walking around is hard with all the motorbikes taking up the road and footpaths but that is generalised and not specifically the hotel's issue. All in all reasonable value for a quick stay.

I mention names of employees here, hoping they do get recognition,--nobody solicited me for this review.

I stayed at this hotel for five days and was pleasantly surprised by how much it offered, especially for the price. While the building is older, it’s very well maintained, and the rooms are clean with comfortable beds, crisp white sheets, and towels. I had one of the more affordable rooms, but the large east-facing windows offered stunning views of the city and mountains.

If you do nothing else, visit the rooftop pool and restobar on the 10th floor—even if you’re staying elsewhere. The views, breeze, and relaxed atmosphere make it a destination. The staff up there were exceptional—shoutout to Andre, Made, Upay, Rhe, and Bhuda. Friendly, honest, and passionate about what they do. I even met the GM and the Chef on two occasions—not drinking, but personally checking in on guests, which says a lot about their commitment.

Breakfast is worth including in your booking. There's a wide selection, an outdoor smoking area, and a relaxed setting. The Wi-Fi worked seamlessly for five days straight without needing to log in repeatedly, which is rare. Security was strong and consistent, giving me peace of mind during my stay.

A big plus was the list of recommended local restaurants provided at check-in—extensive menus, great food, and nearby. Ironically, the service at those restaurants didn’t match the high-quality service I got at the hotel.

Location-wise: Great

Novotel is a very attractive modern and clean hotel, located right off Malioboro, and in close proximity to the train station and the Malioboro mall. My room was very appealing and comfortable, and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I would certainly stay here again.

Staff was friendly and helpful. They promptly fixed a problem with our aircon. Good breakfast buffet. The rooms are not super soundproof, and we could hear the family next door quite late at night. The light switch situation was a little mystifying. Walkable from the train station if you can figure out which exit to use (we did not).

The let down for this property was the cleanliness, on arrival there was a cookie in the power socket next to the bed closest to the door and the bathroom also lacked cleanliness. The nooks and crannies of the toilets can easily be cleaned with some bleach and elbow grease, and same with the shower. I imagine the housekeeping staff do not get enough time to do so which is a shame as the facilities outside of the room were very clean and well maintained. Breakfast was good and had a large selection of foods. I would have liked to see food items get refilled more frequently as the pasta always seemed to be empty. The staff in all areas were very nice. I got very sick and they called for a doctor to attend the property for further assistance (check up cost about 350k IDR and medications about 450K IDR) which were paid directly to the doctor and no extra cost was applied by the hotel staff. On the same note it’s unfortunate the state of the bathroom was not very inviting during this time as the grime made me feel even more sick and queasy on sight. The hotel staff called to check in on me the next day which was appreciated. My partner spent a lot of time at the rooftop bar and loved the live music and bar tending staff and would recommend spending some time up there if you do stay here.

From check-in to breakfast area to check-out, the service staff are all horrible.

1. Unattentive front desk staff that do not even take notice of you.
2. Breakfast service staff that argues with guests. I asked for the manager to attend to me. Waited for half an hour, service manager was nowhere to be see.
3. Upon checking out they asked how was my stay, i told them it was horrible and they just thanked me for my stay. No service recovery and they just waved me off.

I have been to the Novotel chain multiple times but this Novotel is the absolutely worst! You are definitely better off going to other hotels in the area. Because of the horrible experience I had here, I might stay clear of the entire Novotel chain. I would advise other travellers to think twice especially for this hotel. Highly disappointing!

We switched our stay from Marriott to Novotel thinking about location. We booked nearly 3 months ahead for 2 non-smoking rooms and with sofabed. When we arrived we got 2 smoking rooms telling us the hotel is full. Then sofabed received no bedding even though I confirmed a few hours before again (they charge for extra bedding). The bathroom and hotel room floor was dirty. The worst part is that there was large mold coming out of the wall which would be a hazard anywhere else. So they still said no other room available until we went downstairs and showed a picture. The next room was non smoking, but the mold on the wall was just patched up with pieces of wall paper. The front desk never asked if everything was ok afterwards nor greet when we come in. Definitely different then other Novotels and Marriotts where we usually stay.
The restaurant staff was great and attentive! Wish there was a separate rating for that.

친절한 직원들 최고예요

전세계 어디든 믿고 가는 노보텔인데 노보텔말리오보로는 조금 실망스러웠어요. 시설이 낡았어도 관리가 잘 되면 문제가 없죠. 그런데 체크인하고 들어간 룸에 수건도 제대로 준비되어 있지 않고 금연객실인데 담배 냄새도 심하게 나서 다음날 객실교체를 요청해서 바꾸었습니다. 물론 리셉션 직원들은 감동적일 정도로 정말 친절하고 모든 요청에 최선을 다해 즉각적으로 응해주셨어요. 시설 관리에 조금만 더 신경쓰면 좋을 것 같아요.
