Ari Putri Hotel

Some people griped about the AC, and yes it wasn't as strong as I'd like, but this is a gorgeous hotel, with absolutely great service. High degree of professionalism by the staff, exceptionally clean with fantastic facilities. On my trip, I went to 4 hotels and this one was hands down the best. You have a huge washroom, and a nice balcony, a mini fridge, attractive pool and great breakfast buffet. I stayed 4 nights and this was the best customer service experience I had in Bali.

I’m not sure why this hotel rates so well. We stayed here for a short time and found it to be average. We are used to staying in budget accommodation so we do not expect anything flash. However, the rooms are very dingy. The air conditioning seemed to be set at a certain temperature and it didn’t get cold. Woke up a lot through the night wishing we could turn the temp down. The bed was quite fragile. Every time hubby turned over the bed moved. The hot water we thought was not working, but the tap goes to the right for hot and needs to be running for at least 5 minutes before it gets hot. There is no kettle or hair dryer in rooms and no face washer or hand towel. They do supply shampoo and soap and there is a fridge. Room was in need of repair walls crumbling, drawers broken towel hook hanging by a thread. Breakfast was adequate. Eggs cooked to your liking. A couple of hot dishes of noodles and pancakes available. Fresh fruit, toast,waffles,juice and tea and coffee. No bacon for those who enjoy as part of a hot breakfast. The main pool was under maintenance throughout our stay which was disappointing. There was fortunately a second smaller pool which was a relief but not really big enough for the amount of guests. The grounds are lovely. It’s a tradition old style Bali hotel with beautiful gardens and lighting.

Prima hotel; kamer mooi, ruim, hygiene goed; vriendelijk personeel; ontbijt voldeed. Wat wij storend vonden was de opdringerige muziek bij het ontbijt. Veel zwembadtegeltjes waren kapot en dus scherp (snijden) waardoor snijwondjes ontstonden onder je voeten.

Nice hotel, clean with spacious rooms. We had a few rooms for our group. Strong mouldy smell in one of three rooms, the other two rooms were great. The shower was very weak, and directly above the shower (top floor) there is no ceiling’ around the light area. We discovered this when looking closely, meaning if anyone was to be up on the floor above (not sure if this is possible), they could look down on you. This was a little uncomfortable. Some areas of the hotel could do with a little TLC such as this, door fixings and light switches. The back door has a window above it which is not covered by the curtain. There’s no darkness if you want to sleep in the dark, and light comes through in the morning. All staff are friendly other than one lady on reception who seems quite miserable. The pool is nice, and there is a nice balcony area in the higher floors.

Die alte grantige und frustrierte Dame in der Lobby müsste entweder ersetzt werden oder man müsste ihr erklären, dass ihr überhebliche, herablassend, auslachend, freche und unprofessionelle Art und Weise einfach inakzeptabel ist. Ich schreibe eigentlich nur Rezensionen wenn ich super zufrieden bin oder das Gegenteil der Fall ist. Diese Frau hat mir schon nach 2 Minuten Hotelerfahrung die Lust zu diesem Hotel vertrieben. Einen Preis bekommt sie jedoch, sie ist bis jetzt die erste überaus unfreundliche Person die mir in Bali begegnet ist. NIE WIEDER DIESES HOTEL!

Ari Putri is a fantastic place for a family to stay. Make sure to book the deluxe rooms. 118 and 119. Customer service excellent, rooms cleaned daily. Rooms are well loved and a little dated however, air con worked well and for the price no complaints. Breakfast is included. Close to great shops and restaurants/ warungs. Short walk to beach.
