La proprietà — Selarus Inn
Selarus Inn is a 3-star hotel in a quiet alley off Jalan Sosrowijayan, a few minutes' walk from Malioboro. The lobby feels like a functional, clean guesthouse with a small front desk, a few plastic chairs, and a constant hum of motorbikes outside. It suits budget travellers and backpackers who want a safe, cheap base near the main tourist drag, and don't mind basic rooms and intermittent hot water. The USP is location: you can stumble out to street food stalls and becak drivers in under five minutes.
Cronache di Yogyakarta
Yogyakarta was founded in 1755 by Sultan Hamengkubuwono I as the capital of a new sultanate carved from the Mataram kingdom. The Kraton (sultan's palace) remains the city's cultural and political heart, built in traditional Javanese architecture with multi-tiered roofs and open pavilions. Dutch colonial rule left a grid of tree-lined streets and Art Deco buildings along Malioboro, now a chaotic night market of batik, snacks, and becak. After independence, the city became Indonesia's artistic and academic hub, with Gadjah Mada University and a thriving contemporary art scene in galleries and street murals. Today it balances ancient court traditions with a young, creative energy, drawing travellers to Borobudur and Prambanan temples just outside town.
Il momento migliore per visitare
Guida completa di Yogyakarta →I migliori mesi
May, June, September: dry season with clear skies, lower humidity, and fewer crowds than July-August. Temperatures hover around 28°C daytime, 22°C evenings, ideal for temple visits and city walking.
Peak / Festival Surge
July-August is peak domestic and international holiday season. Hotel prices jump 40-60% above low season. The big event is the Yogyakarta Arts Festival (June-July), with parades, puppet shows, and batik exhibitions drawing big crowds. Book at least 2 months ahead for Selarus Inn.
Stagione di spalla
October and April are good budget shoulder months: weather is still dry (though April can have late afternoon showers), crowds thin out, and room rates drop 30% from peak. March is also quiet but more humid with lighter rain.
Meteo e imballaggio
Yogyakarta has a pronounced wet season (November-March) with sudden tropical downpours; even in July you can get a brief shower. Pack: one lightweight rain jacket or umbrella AND a small insect repellent (dengue mosquitoes are common year-round).
Briefing della città — Yogyakarta
- Malioboro street has extended pedestrian zones on weekends (Friday-Sunday evenings), with cars banned from 6pm to midnight; plan your taxi/drop-off accordingly.
- Trans Jogja bus route 1A has been rerouted away from Prambanan since May 2026 due to road construction; check current stops at terminals or use Gojek motorbike taxis instead.
- Several new coffee shops and vinyl record stores have opened on Jalan Prawirotaman in the past year, about 15 minutes by becak from Selarus Inn, giving the area a laid-back evening option.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Selarus Inn, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3-5 facing the inner courtyard or the quieter side streets off the main road. These mid-level floors avoid both street-level noise and any rooftop equipment hum, and the courtyard rooms get natural light without direct sun glare.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of rooms on floor 1 or 2 facing the street — Yogyakarta traffic (motorbikes, becaks, and the occasional call to prayer from nearby mosques) is loudest there. Also avoid rooms next to the lift shaft or service staircase (often marked on the floor plan near the rear corners).
Best views
Best view is from a high-floor room on the east side — morning light over the low-rise cityscape, with glimpses of Mount Merapi on a clear day. The west side gets harsh afternoon sun and looks onto neighbouring buildings.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 are the quietest — far enough from the street and ground-floor lobby/breakfast area, but not close to any roof-level AC units or water tanks.
🔊 Noise notes
Selarus Inn is on a main road in Yogyakarta — expect motorbike traffic from 6am, occasional bemos and street vendors. The hotel may also have a small mosque nearby, so the adhan (call to prayer) will be audible, especially from lower floors. The lift mechanism can be clunky on floors 1-2.
Insider tips
1. If you arrive by car, ask about the off-site parking (many 3-star hotels here lack private parking; they often arrange a nearby lot). 2. Request a room on the north side if you prefer a cooler room — it avoids the west sun and is slightly quieter than the street-facing south.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Principali attrazioni a Yogyakarta
💡 Walk the full length at dusk—the street becomes pedestrian-only and the lit stalls create a carnival atmosphere. Try the street stall wedang jahe (ginger drink) near the intersection.
💡 Come after 18:00 for the 'masangin' tradition—blindfolded locals try to walk between two banyan trees. Food stalls sell grilled corn on the cob and es dawet (coconut milk drink).
💡 Becak drivers will offer tours—agree a price first. Go to 'HS Silver' for free demos and no-pressure purchasing. Try the local bakpia pastry at a nearby warung.
💡 Go early morning to avoid crowds and heat. Buy the combined ticket with the Kraton to save a few thousand rupiah. Wear shoes you don't mind getting dusty.
💡 Hire a local guide at the entrance—costs about 50,000 IDR and gives you access to areas otherwise roped off. Avoid weekends when schools visit.
