    Good choice for first stay to have good sleep.

    The windows were not sealed properly; there was a large gap between the glass and the frame. In the morning and evening, prayers from a nearby mosque could be heard, along with frequent crowing of roosters.

    We paid breakfast at the hotel. There were a lot of choices, that you can find pancake and also noodles. Hotel was situated close to train station, but you have to go about 15minutes. Also a lot of companions can pick you up in this hotel. You get free slippers.

    It's a 4-star hotel but not always top notch - it's generally clean but certain things look a bit.like falling apart. However, the staff was super nice, the food was super tasty and plentiful. It's quite a noisy neighborhood and the windows don't really keep the noice out, so make sure to take earplugs for a good night sleep (the nearby train station has a really loud street crossings that will sure wake you up at night, as well as the callings from the mosque before dawn).

    It was a little quiet when I was there - off season - so I don’t think many rooms were open on the higher floors. I was at the 2nd floor to the back. I did not mind the slight noise from the station but if you are noise sensitive, then ask for a room at the front.

    It’s a short walk from the station so a good base for sightseeing down the Main Street to the museums and palaces, and easy to get out by vehicle to the historic temples in the surrounding countryside. Food was excellent.

    The breakfast offerings might have been heaven's delight for local tastes but it offered very little for Western breakfast preferenances (no eggs, potatoes, meats, cheese, yougart, bagels, muffins, etc.). Most of it was what one would consider "lunch" (rice or noodles with various toppings).

    Good location for train station access. Nice room and furnisings. Friendly staff.

    As a light sleeper, this hotel was a nightmare. I struggled to fall asleep due to the hotel's close proximity to the train station, where the noise from trains was very noticeable.

    The hotel is close to Malioboro, train station and other tourist places. The room is ok.

    The breakfast was an additional price and quite expensive, so on the second morning we ended up walking up the road to try and find something to eat. We had one evening meal in the restaurant, which was truly horrible.

    The Riss is a lovely hotel with good facilities. The room was clean and the beds were comfortable. The pool is smaller than it shows in the photos, but still very pleasant.

    The bread at the breakfast tasted unfortunately quite old.

    - The different range of meals. Both in the evening and for breakfast. - The service we had from one of the employees for arranging a quick take away box before we left the hotel.
