In July I stayed at Adhisthana - a boutique hotel located in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The place is a true gem. I didn't mind that its location is a little further away from the hustle and bustle of central Yogyakarta.
The hotel did many things right and it's popular with foreign and local tourists. The rooms are simple, functional and tastefully decorated although it's a little bit on the small side. Guests can also relax by the swimming pool and outdoor seating areas.
There are a few eateries and good cafes in the area. I love Viavia restaurant, which focuses on local, healthy and organic ingredients. You can find Indonesian and international dishes on the menu. Their smoothies and juices are particularly good. Next door you can find their cafe, bakery, and shop which showcases fair trade products made by local artists.
I wouldn't hesitate to come back.
