Bilik Bamboo Homestay Yogyakarta — Hotel in Yogyakarta

Will adding more photos again when we revisit this place while coming to Jogja.

At first, we never had any experience in any Guest House before while visiting this deep cultured city of Keraton Yogyakarta. We only have been staying in hotels, relatives places, and 24hours places just to do transits.

But since our first visit on 2023, until now, it's always been great visit, at least for once in a year trip to Jogja. We will always coming back again to this humble place, that we might called it as our 1st homebase in the Southern part of the city.

Located in Timuran, next door street to the infamous Prawirotaman areas, where some crowded food joints, restaurants, or even just cafes located surroundings it. So many options for both traditional heritage signature dishes of Jogja, like Nasi Gudeg, also modernized local & global franchised culinary brands, like McDonalds, HokaBento, & Richeese Factory, which quite near access by walk or via online delivery order services.

Nevertheless, for those who were more comfort commuting with cars, it's suggested better to order online taxis instead of rental cars. You still could access it up until the nearest street before the alley, but not recommended to parking the cars nearby. But if you renting bikes & motorcycles, don't forget to keep it locked properly, and save the helmets with any other of your precious belongings on the lockers, which been provided by the owner & management of the place.

At the end of the day, all you want to do maybe just resting comfortably at its gender segregated bunk bed rooms. But you might get more stories, mingling with local communities, and some chances to the hidden gems spots, only if you might allowed to spare just 5 minutes to chit chat with the admins. Or for me, who prefer get connected from night to dawn through my laptop via their well connected wi-fi with a proper bandwidth of speed, at their hommie bench in the terrace...

I had an amazing stay here back in November 2018. ||||The place is run by a sweet old lady and she’s extremely friendly and helpful. ||||Breakfast is provided, usually contains bread (with the option to toast) butter, Nutella, jam, etc. Every now and then there will be some local delicacies as well. ||||There are two separate dome rooms for males and females. Comfortable beds with wall plugs next to them. ||||There’s no hot water in the shower, but that’s only a minor inconvenience. ||||They are also working with local tour providers, so you can book your tours through the hostel pretty easily. It’s very common for backpackers here to continue on to Bromo and Ijen from Yogyakarta, and you can book...

My mum and I stayed 4 nights at Bilik Bamboo and we loved it. Before arriving Atik responded to our mails very quickly, told us the best way to get to her hostel and other information. We have felt very welcomed from the beginning on. My mum got sick and had a fever while we were there. Atik was so sweet and lovely. She gave my mum a massage that helped magically (we kept saying that she has magic hands :)) and all kinds of natural medicine. The doorms are spacious and clean. There is a common area which invites to relax and where is always Coffee, tea and some noodles available. Besides my mum being sick we really loved staying there not least because the lovely Atik who makes the place so unique...
