Reviews and Ratings
Although the rooms were old and the bathrooms rusty, my stay at the hotel was saved by the spacious, clean, and nice room on the 3rd floor. The service was top-notch with very friendly and helpful staff making me feel comfortable throughout. The location was ideal, close to everything I wanted to visit while in Kuta, and the dining experience, although could do with more options, was nice. Facilities were basic but satisfactory.
The hotel is strategically located just opposite Kuta Beach and near various dining and shopping options. The rooms are spacious, cleaned daily to a high standard, though initial cleanliness may vary. Service is mixed, with some fantastic towel animals but unhelpfulness in other areas. The dining offers good variety but lacks tropical fruits. The pool is clean and has a swim-up bar with a nice cocktail selection.
The hotel offers a serene setting surrounded by greenery, with spacious, clean rooms equipped with all necessary amenities. The beautiful grounds provide a relaxing atmosphere, but some noise from the mall parking area can be heard. The service is friendly and accommodating, ensuring a comfortable stay.
The hotel offers a good location, comfortable rooms, and friendly staff. The dining options could have more variety, and there is some noise disturbance from nearby venues. Overall, it's a decent stay with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel offers spacious, clean rooms at the rear, providing great comfort, but they are in need of updating as they appear old and rundown. The service, although lovely and helpful, did not follow up on our complaints. The central location makes it convenient to access Kuta's attractions and the beach for surfing. The dining experience, while good value, was slightly lacking for such a large resort. The facilities overall were satisfactory.
The hotel is conveniently located right opposite the beach and near various nightlife and shopping areas. The rooms are kept in good, clean condition, but noise can be an issue due to neighboring club and noisy guests. The service is friendly, but some maintenance issues required room changes. The dining options offer a good range, especially for those who enjoy local seafood. The pool and gardens are well-kept and provide a relaxing atmosphere.
