I saw photos of Conrad Bali, looks gorgeous! But it's definitely way too expensive.

I haven't decided where to stay in Kuta yet. Going end January only so can decide later. Meanwhile am looking for someone to update their stay in any hotel in Kuta to help me decide Which one have you decided to book? The hotels you have in mind are quite pricey. You can check out on AA site for the hotels too, sometimes can get real good deals.

I'm waitiong for putraskyline to update his comment on Ritz Calton...I been there & luv it!...Location near to Jimbaran & not far from 4 Season.

Another resortN & I luv it but too modern look already is Nikko resort...Location wise far from civilisation..

Both resorts are for relaxing & sceneries not happening...not really near to happening places...I hv posted few photos of both hotels sometime early this year...& Putrasklyline choose Ritz carlton...

Woah what's the damage like for a night? Is Ritz Calton far away from Kuta?

For sure it's not cheap..Location wise, It's located in Jimbaran area...Distance from kuta shoud be ~13km from Kuta..I hv posted Ritz Calrton location earlier repost again :

I'll look through AA website again but ho... the hotels info all jumbled up. Even when I filter by price, it'll still still jump from RM1000 to 400, then to 800 again.

anyone ever heard of Best Western hotel in Kuta? I try to look where is it over the internet..but seem like there is 2 best western hotel in kuta..one is best western new kuta and another best western premier kuta..

any reviews on these hotels?

if u wan pool..try Greenfield..i stayed there before not bad. if u dun care much on pool, i highly recommend Kunang-kunang guesthouse, very clean.

Why so many hotels fully booked in a low season period?? even Alam Shanti also out!

Green field's location seems like very far out of the main attractions area at Monkey Forest road.

If u book direct to the hotel for sure even the lowest season also fully booked..Easy all the slot already pre-booked by travel agents...You need to buy from them via asiaroom & etc..Otherwise...just be abit daring dun book & just walk-in,

Kuchingfight & few did that and suprisingly lotsa budget hotels still having rooms available & can be further nego...They can even get ~RM50/nite!

Wahh..are you sure can get room during walk-in? I think probably it's possbile in Kuta, but in Ubud is kinda limited since most of them are cottages/villas with limited of rooms.

Kuchingfight, where did you get a room for RM50 ?

Ubud no idea..U can check how he did it here:

Because his daring act...I follow on my later trips elsewhere..walk-in only...Yeah sometime getting cheaper than Internet BUT must negotiate & check from 1 hotel to another....abit waste of time-lah...

tegal sari, you need to book at least 6 months in advance.


it is just around 1km walk to monkey forest, if you are lazy they have driver that can drive you there for free, including driving u back to greenfield.

Green Field also fully booked only left Bale Sandat

hey bro I'm from Russia but during 2 years stay in Malaysia, I'm also like u wanna spend christmas (28dec-1jan) there, I'm planning to go with my girlfriend and maybe some korean friends:) will it be much more interesting to spend chrismas there? Also I wanna go the hotel 4star "Contiki Resort Bali" which specialized for young generation 18-35 years old, the most interesting children and old people not allowed in this hotel are there any idea about this hotel?

Let's say if we stay in a hotel in Legian beach, will it be possible to walk to Kuta? Checked it in google map, seemed to be quite far so not too sure if can walk.

Yes, its possible.. Its very near.. Legian and Kuta are lively all night long..
