Hotels Near SF Garden in Bali

Exceptional! Totally agree with the other positive reviews. The only thing to add is that as of August 2024 they are still finishing the Meru, so not everything is completed, but everything that matters is open (gym, pool, restaurant opposite the beach) so there’s no problem. Also no noise or disruption experienced. The Bali Beach hotel (big white building) is next door and that is undergoing a major renovation but again it didn’t affect us as they have done everything possible to hide the renovation process. The Meru is an extension of that hotel, but it is brand new. I found that a little confusing when I was deciding where to book because people have posted pictures for both hotels that confuse them. The Meru is a big wood and stone complex and the beach pool is directly in front.

Nice place, the pool, the room, the facilities, all above my expectations, lots of restaurant near by, also a KFC ( Kentucky Fried Chicken) at less than 2 min walk around the corner, Bank and other shop .

This is my second stay in 2023 and it did not disappoint. I usually come with my husband and family but had a week solo and chose this hotel. Not only have we had wonderful holidays here in the past, being on my own, I liked the idea of security at the gate. I stayed in a pool view deluxe and although these rooms are a little dated, it was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Having a welcome platter of fruit was a lovely touch and much appreciated. The lovely staff are another reason we return again and again to this hotel. Lintang is a wonderful asset to this hotel and makes me feel like family. Wirik in the restaurant realised I was travelling alone and went out of her way to ensure I was comfortable and had a friendly smile and chat for me each morning. She does an excellent job and also makes me feel like family The pool is one of the best in Sanur. Perfect temperature and huge, so you never feel crowded and can move around freely. It would be good if there were more lounges though. Pool bar staff are lovely and efficient. The hotel is located a short distance from the beach and has numerous excellent restaurants out front. It’s an easy walk to night markets as well Lastly, the security guards were wonderful. Very diligent at their jobs and so friendly and helpful to me. The Swissbel is my go to hotel in Sanur. It’s such great value for money and its buffet breakfast is great. Try a themed dinner night as the food is sensational and great value being “all you can eat”! Thanks again Swissbel, we will be back!

We had a great stay at this hotel but there were issues. I am writing this review as clearly as positive to help you weigh the negatives with the positives, as the value for money WAS excellent. GREAT THINGS The staff are fabulous. You can't beat the location. Right on the main strip of restaurants and next door to Artesedana (old Hardys), so you can buy all the water, drinks and fresh food you need. We had a cabana room and it was exactly as portrayed. Loved our plunge pool and the super comfy lounger chairs. Plenty of pool towels available. This is one of the few Bali hotels I have eaten at that does cakes really well. The breakfast didn't have massive selection, but everything was well cooked and tasty. Room service meals were great too. I am also mindful that any other hotel could offer a plunge pool room with breakfast in a main location for anywhere near the price we paid. It was excellent value for money. NEGATIVES Our king bed was so awful. It was on a wooden base which creaked loudly every time you moved. It also swayed with even the slightest movement, so not great sleep there. It might be worth considering getting twin share so that at least you don't wake each other up all night simply moving. It is very noisy. There were 3 dogs in the laneway behind our room who barked all night. Not intermittent barking, constant barking. There was one night in our 8 night stay where they only barked for a few hours and thankfully went silent - but barked the rest of the evenings. I wore 34db earplugs every night and the dogs still kept me awake. I don't know what was being moved in the rooms above us, but it sounded like furniture was being dragged on and off most of the night. I was incredibly loud and woke us both each time - even me wearing earplugs. The hallways are also very noisy. The internet access is unsecured and you constantly have to keep logging back on, which made it difficult to do work while we were on holidays. Not a negative - but keep in mind this is a low-service hotel in that there is no pool bar and no service at the pool, no money exchange offered (although there is a great money changer directly over the road). This didn't worry us, but could be disappointing for anyone wanting the pool bar experience. CONCLUSION On the whole, I still consider the room was excellent value for money and I enjoyed my stay. Probably wouldn't go back - just because sleep is an important part of the holiday and it was so noisy!

What a lovely find New hotel Stylishly decorated common areas and rooms Rooms are big 40m2 Bathrooms modern Pool was beautiful and gym adequate (could do with barbells; all gyms should have barbells ) Gusti at reception was exceptional Welcoming cheerful and helpful The restaurant and wine bar Cork at the hotel but separately operated had a good range of wines Pricey but lovely Good variety of restaurants nearby

Awesome Hotel to stay with the family… Very spacious rooms and suitable for the family. Overall hotel is the great to be if you are visiting bali. Only improvement point - it has very limited menu and portions of food is also limited. Breakfast menu is som limited that my wife avoided eating at the place. Hotel should improve on the menu list and portion of the food.

It was a wonderful and comfortable choice to stay at the Hyatt! It’s huge and it has everything you need inside, gym, spa, many pools, sauna/steam room, jacuzzi, restaurants! Private seats at the beach, lots of recreational areas. It’s also connected to all the restaurants outside the hotel that you can find walking from the beach! It was outstanding. The staff is extremely kind and helpful! There’s no other place that I would stay if I ever go to Bali again. I recommend it completely. It’s a paradise.

Holiday Inn was located close to the beach and restaurants. It’s a beautiful hotel with a king size bed and large bathroom. We loved the Dove shampoo and body that was provided. The firm and soft pillows were a nice touch. The bedding was surprisingly soft and comfy. The staff at the hotel always greeted us and were all smiles. We stayed four nights and had two rooms. We must have gotten the worst rooms in the hotel. We were on the first floor (ground floor) and our room was right by the elevator. We could hear people talking loudly throughout our stay. Our window faced the garage. We heard cars and scooters as well. There was a ramp or something that made the vehicles make a loud thumping noise as it went over the ramp. In addition to outside noises, the hotel rooms are NOT soundproofed at all. Children running and heavy footed walking can be heard above. Talking and furniture being slammed was heard from our next door neighbours. We chose to stay here based on trip adviser reviews and were surprised no one mentioned the lack of sound proofing. It’s too bad because it’s a beautiful property and centrally located.

The hotel is okay, but it just happened to be under renovation recently, and I kept digging through the wall when I was resting in the afternoon. Then because of the renovation, they didn't have enough rooms. We asked them for late checkout several times and they only gave us until 1 o'clock. Not very human. The interior of the room is okay, but the door is not windproof. When the wind and rain are blowing, you can always hear the whine of the wind from the door and window. Children can be a little scared at night. It has been renovated but not a big change, it is still a bit old. But the room was quite comfortable.

There is no doubt it is a grand entry to Prama. The gates at the entry + security and a big foyer give a sense of upmarket. The rooms are ok but very hotel style. The design of the complex definitely caters to large groups of people. The hotel is disabled and senior friendly. The room service is a plus for those with young children or guests with limited mobility. The staff are always professional and helpful. All up I can see why many guests return.
