Digging through my archive, i stumbled upon photos of the Presidential Suite #702 from our previous stay before the pandemic (winter 2019)
As many have known by now by reading this thread, there have been no refurbs done yet at the hotel, so the situation should still be the same..
We had booked this suite when travelling as a family because it has a bedroom with King bed and a bedroom with Twin beds.
It does offer a connecting door with another room. The price usually hovers around the $575++
Steep pricing but the amount of space you get is worth it, plus the fact my sons were younger then and i needed to keep an eye on them (teenagers) and didn't want them to have their own room yet.
So these are the photos taken winter 2019 before pandemic hits:
Note:
- the room was clean and comfortable with 3 airconditioning units: both bedrooms and living room
- this is
according to WoH a specialty suite
- located on the top floor (level 7)
Double doors on level 7 : must lead to something awesome !
When you enter,
Hecate's Crossroads:
- Left to master bedroom with King bed
- Left also is the kitchen
- Right to bedroom with Twin beds
- Straight Through, you get into the living room
Looking right into the seating area
- welcome amenity on the salon table
Looking from seating area into the dining area
The spacious dining table:
you can see my morning coffee kick whilest the others are rushing off to the swimming pool!
Seen from the dining table towards the seating area,
in the back see the entrance to the bedroom containing TWIN beds
View from the living room terrace at level 7 :
- bit cloudy but normal a superb view of Mount Merapi volcano
- the folly masquerading as the temple with waterslide
Bedroom containing Twin beds (has a connecting door to next room)
I managed to snap a pristine photo because i herded the lads to go straight to the swimming pool

Although the data is older from Winter 2019, i hope this information might be useful for future travellers,
Especially as the situation might still be the same as the hotel has not started its renovations yet....
So again:
MR Owner: renovate your hotel !
It will jump at least to a Cat+1 up !
Endless new possibilities !
Although the hotel is authentic in ambiance, the rooms are a bit stuck in a time warp.
Still the amount of space the suites offer can be most welcome when travelling with family.
And for those of us whom are covid survivors (Alpha + Omikron) , the assurance that the suites have balconies opening to fresh air is most appreciated!
