Aman resorts are normally beautifully situated and this one is no exception. The layout of the hotel was deliberately designed to line up with the view of the temple, though the temple is quite far in the distance. The first day we had very clear weather, which provided a clear view of the volcano...and we questioned which is the better... More

Everything about this hotel says quality and luxury, but in the quietest of Zen ways! Tranquil, verdant setting, looking towards the ancient Buddhist temple of Borobudur. The building is beautiful and the grounds are luxuriant. We only had lunch in the restaurant, but I would love to go back and stay in the wonderfully appointed villas.

Booked a Borobudur Pool Suite, and they gave us a nice suite adjacent to the rice field and borobudur view, but it was too close to the main pool so no privacy. We asked to change the room and they gave us a higher floor room which was perfect for us, but we were waiting for 1,5 hour to get... More

My husband and I went here last week for lunch. The food was okay,nothing special about it. But the view from the entrance very breathtaking, we could see tiny Borobudur and the hotel was very very very beautiful. I wish I could stay there but we didn't get any room left. Maybe next time, I would definitely stay here. Oh... More

We landed here after 40 straight hours of travel form NY, and it fit the bill to lounge, relax and do much of nothing. It is an exceptional hotel in design and layout. Aman is a very different style property than I had been used to and this was the first I had stayed in. The level of detail and... More

Amanjiwo remains our favourite Aman after 3 stays spread over a decade. To my wife and I, its unique appeal is not just due to the unparalleld views of Candi Borobudur or the seemingly timeless architecture of Ed Tuttle, it's what lies beyond the Amanjiwo grounds: the sense of belonging when bicycling through the many friendly villages nearby, the simple...

... treat yourself to a stay like this. Aman Jiwo is truly over-the-top expensive compared to the types of places I usually stay, and I don't expect to spend this kind of coin ever again, frankly. But, having said that, this is the kind of place that is definitely worth doing once in your life. You'll never forget it! It's... More

We went to the Amanjiwo Hotel for lunch only. The hotel lobby and entire design of the hotel is breath taking but the view on Borobudur Temple even better. This is the good part of the rating. The rather poor part is that lunch was totally overpriced (even considering that you pay for the view). Even my helper at home... More

We are used to staying at top end hotels and this was the first time we had stayed in such a hotel in Indonesia. It's quite a long drive from the airport but once we arrived we were very impressed. Firstly the Ed Tuttle designed hotel is a masterpiece of modern design based on Borobudur Temple itself. Upon walking up... More
