The Best Hotel Openings in the Asia-Pacific Region for 2023

Garrya Bianti Yogyakarta, Java, Indonesia

Following openings in China, Thailand, and Japan in 2022, Banyan Tree Group’s new Garrya brand launched a lushly landscaped, minimalist outpost in Java. The serene spaces, including 26 villas, are inspired by local culture and Yogyakarta’s temples. Pyramid-like structures line the inner courtyard, complementing the recycled wood-clad lobby constructed in the style of the joglo, or traditional Javanese home.
