Royal Ambarrukmo Yogyakarta
has a long early life story from the establishment of “Jenu” which was a royal
garden in the reign of Sultan Hamengku Buwono II on 1792 until 1812. It was
still used as a royal garden until the reign of Sultan Hamengku Buwono V. In
his era, “Jenu” was changed to “Pesanggrahan Harja Purna” which was once used
as a place to welcome special guests outside the palace. In 1898, the era of
Sultan Hamengku Buwono VII, “Pesanggrahan Harja Purna” was- transformed into
“Kedhaton Ambarrukmo.” His Majesty furnished the place with additional buildings
similar to Kraton Yogyakarta. It was used as His Majesty’s home after he
abdicated the throne. Sultan Hamengku Buwono VII spend most of his time here
until his death.
During the reign of Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono IX, “Kedhaton Ambarrukmo” was
often used for public interest. For instance, in 1947 this beautiful place was
used as the administration office of the Sleman government.
Long journey short, in around 1960, by the suggestion of Ir. Soekarno who
was the first president of the Republic of Indonesia, both Ir. Soekarno and Sri
Sultan Hamengku Buwono IX decided to build a five-star hotel with a signature
touch of architecture from Ir. Soekarno. They used the pampasan fund
from the Japanese to build one of the first five-star hotels in Indonesia. The
hotel was named Ambarrukmo Palace Hotel. Onwards, in 2011, this magnificent
hotel got a big renovation and transformed into Royal Ambarrukmo Yogyakarta, a
five-star hotel that is famous for its Javanese culture and tradition.
“Kedhaton Ambarrukmo” heritage complex consists of Pendopo Agung Kedhaton
Ambarrukmo, Ndalem Ageng, and Bale Kambang. The Pendopo is usually used for
traditional Javanese activities such as Javanese dance activities, Javanese
creation dances, Siteran, Suling Bambu, as well as Jemparingan or traditional
archery combined with Royal High Tea Patehan.
Ndalem Ageng nowadays is used as a private museum, which before was used as
the place of Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono VII and his family rooms. Today, it has
a wondrous Gamelan named Kiai Yasa Arum and a set of wayang kulit. The museum
also has many batik clothing, various kinds of Batik, and also pictures and
