Everything was excellent as soon as we walked in. We were greeted with a warm welcome by the friendly hotel team, and were impressed with the room - spacious, comfortable, very clean. The pool area is lovely and the rooftop terrace gives great views for sunset. Despite being on a main road, you hear almost nothing of the Ubud traffic. It’s an easy walk or motorbike into the main centre, and the included breakfast was fresh and tasty. We’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for comfort and affordable luxury in Ubud.

- Absolutely EVERYONE from the hotel team was really amazing! Special thanks to Wayan for the excellent day tours! You made our time in Ubud truly unforgettable! But as I said, everyone deserves 10/10! - The room was beautiful decorated, big and perfectly clean - The bed time stories were very interesting! - Location is very central - Really good bike rental shop on the opposite side of the street - Beautiful rooftop for wonderful sunsets and sun rises - the authentic dances - no mosquitos :)

The staff were amazing. Very welcoming and friendly. The facilities were perfect and always clean. The location was very central and had a lot of nice restaurants only walking distance away. There was a pharmacy across the street aswell which was very helpful.

So glad we found this place! We were made to feel welcome from the moment we got out the taxi, lovely welcome drink, cold towel & mini feet massage, then escorted to the room. The room well truly amazing so big with lovely elephant made out of towels. Robes slippers spotlessly clean, huge comfy bed, tv but we didn’t have time to put it on, safe, tea & coffee & water provided, bathroom wow, huge bath overlooking the bedroom but you can put the blind down for privacy, large shower all the toiletries & more with tooth brushes & even razors they had thought of everything. Loved the night time stories as well couldn’t wait to read them, room overlooked the pool on the ground floor big balcony with comfy chairs. You can opt to have breakfast on your balcony or in the restaurant but we chose the balcony as it was sooo peaceful. Lots to choose from the food it’s absolutely amazing, must try the Dadar Galung it’s out of this world you do have to order the night before though but that’s so it can be delivered at the exact time & perfectly cooked. We ate at the restaurant twice & the chefs are amazing the food was so tasty. The last night was valentines night so we booked a 3 course meal with Balinese dancers for our entertainment! As I was singing at the cocktail bar a short walk away from the hotel a must try by the way they have great cocktails & karaoke 🎤! The staff had me singing before the dancers came on it was great fun. They even put a rose & chocolate on our bed when we returned bless them nice touch! They have a shuttle that can drop you off in the centre as it is quite a walk away but it’s free so use it great service! It’s a lovely town lots to see & it’s a 15 minute walk to monkey forest too so not far. There are lots of bars & restaurants nearby if you want to eat out as well as ATMs & supermarket for nibbles. Loved feeding the fish in the bar area too as I love any animal.

Leaving

Everything here was perfect, in fact it became one of the highlights of our Bali trip. The staff is amazingly friendly and young, the facilities, the room, and the food as well as its presentation is great. We stayed in a pool access suite, which was very spacious, and came along with afternoon tea, where they serve authentic Balinese Cakes. We liked the food so much that we ended up ordering in the room a few times. They also provide drop service to the city center which was very helpful! Would definitely recommend this for any romantic or family vacation.

There were some mosquitoes, given the room was next to the garden, but they had provided us with repellant sprays, so once we used it, the next day was so much better.

This is a lovely, modern renovation of an old temple (I think). The rooms have lots of light. comfortable beds, English-language tv stations, and great bathrooms with bathtubs. The staff are the absolute best! They went way out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. The restaurant is very good, with a variety of dishes and a bar.

Guests should be aware that the hotel is in a busy part of town. For me, it worked out well to have a lot of restaurants and other businesses close but this is not a tucked-away retreat.

Everything about this property was incredible. From the decor, ambience, pool, breakfast and afternoon tea included, small details in the room, to the exceptional, kind staff that make you feel at home. I wish we could’ve stayed longer. It rained during our stay and we loved it. Our “personal assistant” Gali, was so accommodating and even took pictures of my fiancé and I before we went out for dinner. I will recommend this property to anyone staying in Ubud. We loved it here!

Nothing!

Breakfast was superb, with classic Indonesian as well as western options. It was beautifully presented. I essentially took a photo shoot of my colorful meal each morning. My room was very comfortable, it has nice touch to have both a rainfall shower as well as a stand-alone bathtub with a glass wall from bathroom to bedroom. My balcony was nice with a table and two chairs overlooking the wonderful pool, which I used daily. The landscaping around the pool was really beautifully done and very tropical, a nice place to cool down in the extreme humidity and get social with some of the other guests. A very nice unexpected touch was that "afternoon tea" was offered every afternoon from 3:00 til about 5:00pm, which you could have on your balcony, at poolside or in the restaurant: it included a choice of tea or Balinese Coffee plus the sweet or pastry of the day, offered up in a quaint basket, reminiscent of a bird-cage. The hotel also had a lovely spa with two separate treatment rooms. I had a wonderful hot stone massage. And there is an art gallery with several original paintings by different Balinese artists. Finally, as a woman traveling solo, I especially liked it that there was a free shuttle available for hotel guests to be driven to the shopping ares & other side of Ubud. I used the shuttle a few times especially in the evenings, when I first arrived until I oriented myself and felt comfortable to call a "GRAB" car for transportation. All staff were very pleasant and extremely attentive!

This is my personal preference for safety: I didn't like the bed mattress being on a much wider wooden platform, because I don't expect to "walk into the hard corner of the wooden bed frame" I felt that the hot water in shower and bath were Boiling Hot and that there should be limit to how hot it can get.... coz a person could easily get burned.

I was trying out a hotel for 2 nights with Ayurvedic food and massage. The room was very nice like a standard western hotel room. Very clean. The massage was amazing. Really excellent. The food was beautiful and the dining room is in a nice setting looking at jungle vegetation. There was a very nice pool on the property. The staff were very friendly and helpful. There was a delightful little coffee shop on the street almost next door.

I had been staying at a health retreat for a week previously in a very Balinese villa, so this was quite different and western. I was disappointed that the yoga lessons were limited to those taking a set time retreat, so I couldn’t have access. Probably my fault for not investigating first. It’s about a 20 minute walk into the town but not an issue for me as I had done all my shopping. The stairs to upstairs rooms were not well lit at night.

I stayed here for 3 nights last month and love, love, love the hotel! The staff were so helpful and friendly throughout my stay here: I rarely give a property 10/10, but Purana Suite Ubud totally deserves it for the exceptional service. The staff helped me carry my large suitcase up and down the stairs at both check-in and check-out, as there's no elevator at the property. The breakfast was amazing: So many options to choose from, and I also love the option to have it at my balcony at my preferred time every morning (as communicated the night before). The suite is spacious and lovely, and the bed is super comfortable. Bottled water was replenished every day. In terms of facilities/ services, I got the Balinese massage at the spa and also had dinner at the hotel restaurant one night: Both were very reasonably priced. I also used the free shuttle to Ubud City Center once (ideally prebook with front desk 1-1.5 hour before). Hotel location is pretty good: Many restaurants, shops, spas and a lovely yoga studio (Heartspace) within a few minutes walk. It's about 30-minute walk to Ubud City Center, but the sidewalks in Ubud were mostly narrow, and sometimes blocked by other objects or damaged. (This has nothing to do with the hotel, but I find Ubud to be largely unfriendly to pedestrians: In addition to the sidewalk conditions, there are nonstop cars and motorcycles, which made it very stressful to cross the streets). Best to use the hotel shuttle or call a Grab. I wish my stay were longer: Would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ubud!

I initially found this hotel via a yoga retreat aggregator site, but ended up booking just the accommodations on Booking.com instead of the 3-night retreat. It is a shame that the free yoga class is only on Sunday and Thursday morning, so I didn't have a chance to try it (my stay was Sunday night through Wednesday morning). I wish the classes are offered more frequently (e.g., every other day). Some of the information in their info pack is outdated, e.g., a free daily morning trek was listed, but when I enquired at the front desk, I was told that that has been discontinued. Since there is a nice bath tub, it'd have been nice to offer some bath salt in the toiletries stash.
