Review: Batik Canting Experience The batik canting experience was the best and so much fun! 🎨✨ Even though we had never done batik canting before, the staff guided us wonderfully from start to finish. Their teaching method was easy to understand, and they were always there to help when we weren't sure what to do. It was a truly fun experience and perfect for first-timers. Highly recommended! 🤍

Highly recommended. We'll definitely repeat our visit. The place is spacious, has a cafe, and an air-conditioned room for parents to wait while their children play. Very satisfied.

This time the room was really nice, very clean, and it was my first time staying on such a high floor 😊 I really enjoyed the view and the room type. Hopefully next time you can arrange a similar floor and room type for me again. The only small issue was the hair dryer — it seems quite old and sometimes not working properly. It would be great if the hotel could consider upgrading it. Overall, still had a very pleasant stay. Thank you!
