I love the Javanese vintage design of this resort with serene and leafy garden.

The hotel is beautiful and laid out across a lovely tropical garden, and offers a spa and a lovely swimming pool.

The resort is a peaceful, grand complex set in a well maintained garden.

The garden is very beautiful with green views everywhere.

It makes use of nice old buildings and is situated in a lovely garden.

Overall, the room is so comfy, which made it hard to wake up and go to work in the morning :) I’m also loving the terrace and garden view.

We enjoyed the tropical lush garden, its a great experience in town, quiet ambient for talks with friends.

Built along traditional lines with wide porticos to rest or work on, the beautiful gardens filled with orchids and lush vegetation was very special.

Spa is also very good, fitness facilities is OK, a small swimming pool around the garden is interesting in this type of hotel.

but it packed a punch with its garden and ambiance.

The garden setting is lovely with a nice looking pool.

The hotel is beautifully located in a large garden and has a large swimming pool.

Nice place, peaceful, wonderful garden areas, very Javanese.

There is a very relaxed atmosphere on the resort.

5th time I’ve been to the resort, peaceful and mindful , staff happy and helpful , plenty of places to explore.

A beautiful spot to just have a serene get-away.

Stop by here for coffee and snacks, the ambience was so relaxing, this place is quite far from the city, the concept is more like traditional hotel.

The ambience was so serene and the green lush around resort was top notch.

The surronding and the room was peaceful and pretty.

I would recomment everyone to come to kayu arum for a relaxing time.

The rains came and it was even more relaxing.

Set in spacious grounds this is a place to relax and unwind.

The staffs are helpful, the ambiance so quiet, so peaceful.

This quiet, family owned resort, located almost in the exact centre of Java, with its magnificient tropical garden and its "Tempo Doeloe" styled buildings is worth staying more than one or just a few relaxing days.

This is a very comfortable relaxing place to stay.

The location is so tranquil, in the middle of tropical forest-like garden.

The rooms is clean.. the bedsheet is superb

Our rooms were clean, and nicely appointed.

The first impression when we saw his room is very clean , tastefully furnished and well functioning .

They provide basics amnesties (and a ten-minutes welcome massage), the room was really clean and smelled authentic and so was the bathroom.

I love the birds singin in the morning, the staff, the spa, the room everything was perfect! thanks!

Facilities like pool and spa are clean and in good order.

The rooms are big and quiet, the pool is big enough to do laps in the morning, the restaurant serves good food and the women from the spa will give you a good massage.

We were particularly pleased with the 15 minute welcome massage!


Good and nice place, unique and comfort place, excellent for the service, delicious for the breakfast and we enjoy the welcome massage.

Pros: 
- excellent spa: seems like it’s newly renovated, so it’s spotless and very beautiful.

Overlooking the pool, the spa is on the second floor with a friendly and professional therapist and cozy, ethnical looking chambers.

I recently went to the spa with some friends.

but were pleasantly offered to wait a bit so three of us could each have a massage at the same time.

Very decent meals including breakfast/ We used the spa and enjoyed the services.

but I was told by a friend accompanying me that teh spa is excellent.

Massage facilities are excellent and much enjoyed by my wife.

Oh yeah, and there's an excellent spa right on the premises with a full range of services to offer!

In the same complex, they also have a spa that is pretty affordable and very very enjoyable.

My husband will have to drag out the kids and I to leave the resort if it wasn't because of the lousy wifi connection.

The front office staff told me that because I stayed in the corner of the building (deluxe or executive room), SO I CAN NOT get wifi connection.

WiFi may not be super strong for skype meetings;

Unfortunately it has minor downsides: 
- the internet didn’t stay connected to the devices (all apple) and froze from time to time
- the gym has seen better days and was in a pretty bad shape
- there is a mosque not so far away that wakes you up at 4am (well, Indonesia is a muslim country - you are facing that fact probably everywhere).

The only issue was the internet connectivity could have been more reliable.

but the wifi in the room was bad and useless.

My apple products sometimes had connection problems (hint: connect to the wifi and then type "1.1.1.1" into your internet browser for the login screen),

Unfortunately the Wi-Fi was not really strong inside of the room, and the room was dark

Our room aircondition didn't work, so we could not sleep properly, bed sheets and bathroom towels need to be upgraded and replaced with new ones.

Every time I go to your hotel in this past 2 years, it’s always there is a problem with your AC and I have to changing room.

Didn't sleep because the air conditioning kept on shutting down.

He could not explain about the broken aircon despite his prior "inspection".

The only thing maybe is the AC seems to be too strong and blow directly into my bed.

but had to change room at 11 pm during my first night, since the AC controller did not work and suddenly the WC flooded the bathroom, which of course is unacceptable.

What She did is trying to put her head right on the A/C Air From, right in front of the LCD TV on the wall.

The a/c after repair, spewed out contaminated air molecules so bad i developed a throat infection and developed an allergic rash i never had since the rare days of bunking with friends in backpackers motels 2 decades ago.

Then we entered the room, took a bath and when we slept on the bed, the whole bed, pillow and blanket were damp.

Shower door broken, water tap broken, bathroom amenities like in  a 2 star hotel.

The rooms were dirty, power came on and off, the breakfast is better in the street stall across the street and apologies to the other guests - we drank the only bottle of dark rum on the property (when it eventually was served, after we sobered up).

The sheets and towels need to be renewed, the fridge wasn't 4 degrees cold, the shower head wasn't working properly.

I guess the smell came from the bathroom?

Room size is average, need more attention for cleanness, specially for the bathroom area.

Bathroom amenities is a bit minimum for a 4 star hotel, no liquid soap? Really?

The bed had a pee stain on it, the bathroom had dirt on the floor, the cellular coverage is not great, and the tv remote battery is leaking out.

Minuses : Lack of cleanliness; the wall at the toilet has some stains, pile of dirts at the corner of the room and toilet.

The bathroom was supposed to be indoor/outdoor type.

From slow check-in/check-out, weak Wi-Fi signal, slow internet connection, broken aircon to dirty toilets and bedrooms.

The toilet ran continuously wasting water day and night.

in the evening, my wife was looking for the hairdryer which is said can be found in the bathroom,

I go to this hotel for family holiday for 2 night, best hotel in town with javanese ethnic sorrounding, huge room, friendly staff, near city town cannot imagine before to found this hotel in the small town, will be back again if we visit salatiga again

The location is a green oasis within walking distance to the city center and across from a small bus stop.

The lobby & decoration is very interesting.

All we feel is relaxing environment and fresh air.

The environment, design and architect are Java traditional concept.

design and architect brings the concept of Java, joglo and gamelan they provide at the lobby.

Not a really good ambiance for laid back and enjoy your morning coffee for a while.

The design theme difference between the 2 buildings is a turnoff.

It's a mini resort with many open spaces and java cultured architecture.

I stay two nights for business purposes.Check in process is fast enough, I choose the type of superior double room for this trip.The rooms are quite large, the furnishings in the rooms are quite good, the cleanliness is also quite good and has a terrace, and the nice thing is the hotel has plenty of green space.

Lighter color wall,  better facility maintenance and cleanliness, refunctioning of facilities and landscaping would uplift this beautiful property to a very good resorr.

Laras Asri offered you the best ambiance in the middle of Jl.

If you are looking for a clean basic Indonesian style hotel in salatiga look no further.

The hotel has an interesting interior design in the old joglo building.

The lobby area had a nice atmosphere, breakfast was good, and they had a lot of sport options.

Trees and garden surrounding was very good atmosphere to stay.

but you will feel different atmosphere in their new building
personally, I choose to stay in the standard room despite (maybe) smaller room size, it's clean, comfortable and quite modern
breakfast also ok, the taste is average, but many choices available

Its really nice place, good view interesting architecture and friendly staffs.

but sometimes when you decided to have a fresh air outside instead of fresh air you'll have an awful rotten smell coming from the building next door and that ruined those images of a spa.

but there is local transport that goes right past the front door.

the building is rather old, so some of the mebel and door lock look obsolete.

We booked a standard room with double bed, and added an extra bed.

At the time of booking, we already asked for an extra bed and it's confirmed.

The resort is oké, rooms are clean, and spacious enough, nice swimming pool and a tennis court.

The room was clean and comfortable, the bed was comfy, the air con was super quite and all the facilities were working well.

Bathroom was filthy, with mold on the floor and bidet.

However almost the whole night my kid stay awake and stay outside the room because she cannot stand the dampness.

Maybe the smell come from the floor drain.

Arrived late afternoon at hotel expecting an operating open air restaurant to be a part of the establishment as,per details provided online

A great place to enjoy a couple of days of lower temperatures and fresher air after time in the nearby larger cities of Semarang, Solo and Yogyakata.

far from street so the air still fresh in the morning 
We book for two days in hanoman and antareja room.

I love to smell the grass scent in the morning and feel the fresh morning air.

Shower was not the best with pressure non existent.

Amenities only soap, tooth brush and shower cap.

Water for shower was smelled like "iron".

Some cockroaches in the bathroom (1st floor) and dirty bathroom.

While we're about to take a shower we realised that there is no towel.

but not the scent of the room,the bathroom,not really quiet.

The minuses; Few mosquitoes at night (maybe because of the hot & dry season) and smelly foul in the bathroom (maybe because of the pipe clogged somewhere).

The good part of this hotel is the location is in the city, easy to go everywhere and there are many good food stalls and restaurants around the hotel.

The small city of Salatiga is located in the hills of the Mt Merbabu area.

The hotel is located on the dead ended road off Sukowati street in the heart of Salatiga city.

but no hot water to make tea (no tea either), however the receptionist is offering us free tea as a welcome drink.

Then no water heater,no coffee cups and the vanities,some mould spot on the wall,no enough towel to wipe wet hands,bedsheet and pillowcase has some grey spot.

Our room was located on the second floor where we could just see the surrounding mountains.

The room was big enough, clean, especially the bed.

comfy
And the view is absolutely stunning 
You could see merbabu mountain here
My advice is you choose the third floor room between gatot koco, ontarejo.

Stayed in family room on the first floor for 5 nights and then transfered to second floor for few more nights.

The hotel has a very Javanese aesthetic, with each room named afrer a wayang character.

I booked a family room, and get a very spacious room with two large beds, a cupboard which is also great, a living room with a sofa and a beautiful garden view.

All room was build on parquet, it's additional value for me.

I think we paid around rp 400,000 per night for our room (which had comfy twin beds, an aesthetically-pleasing bathroom, lots of storage space and beautiful views of Mount Merbabu)

Rooms are kept clean  and the bed/s are very comfortable and clean

The bath towels are yellowish and I have to asked the front desk for bath towels every day because they did not restore it.
