Beautiful location, but lots of steps
Beautiful location, landscaping, pools, river gorge views,
9.7
This is a beautiful and historic place built into the hill above the river. You do have to descend lots of steps to get to the pool or spa, but the tropical foliage and river views are worth it. From the moment you step into the open-air lobby and look out at the gorgeous greenery, you realize what makes Bali so special. Cottages are clean and arranged along the river to provide maximum privacy and views. The hotel offers a good buffet breakfast, a large lounge with two large-screen televisions, and two computers where guests can check their e-mail. There is also a free shuttle to and from Ubud, but you can walk there in 10-15 minutes.
Restaurant Tip:
There are two excellent restaurants across from the hotel, Bridges and Murni's Warung. Both have beautiful views over the river gorge, but Bridges is more upscale with higher prices.

Completely Awesome
The location, the atomosphere, the staff, spa
9.7
We loved everything about this hotel. I mean everything. I cannot say enough good things about it. The windows in the room look out over a river into the jungle. The way the rooms are carved out of the rocks is awesome and the pool is amazing. The breakfast and room service is excellent. The staff is so friendly and helpful. We got in very late at night and the restaurant had closed, we were starving and they opened the kitchen back up and made us food. The spa is absolutely amazing, getting a massage next to river with the sounds of the river and wildlife was spectacular. The lady doing my massage pointed out some iguanas on the river bank and the hot and cold pools are so beautiful to sit in. I recommended it to other friends that were traveling to Bali and they loved it just as much as I did. The only minor thing is the bathroom could be updated a bit, but for the price it was fine.

great place to spend a few days or a week. some reviews had said the location was too far away, but we easily walked into ubud, and there is a very convenient free shuttle service. would definitely stay here again.

Great location beside river valley and town
great view of the river valley and forest
6.7
The hot jacuzzi and steam bath is superb but is chargeable. You can see the river ravine from the jacuzzi. All the rooms does not comes with any television. Electrical wiring can be better as during our stay the phone and pool lighting is a bit faulty. We were told it is disrupted by the thunderstorm during the monsoon rain.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Can talk the free hourly shuttle bus which drops off at the art museum and monkey forest.

Gorgeous Location
absolutely gorgeous location, set on the edge of the river, surrounded by tropical jungle.
8.7
stunning location, rooms are a bit dated but absolutely fine. the hotel is set on the edge of the river, so very steep- not good for those that can't manage stairs. don't expect wonders at breakfast either, but again absolutely fine. the spa (pool) was pretty spectacular, especially as we used it while it was thundering and lightening outside...friendly and obliging staff.

We chose Tjampuhan Hotel having already stayed in a sister hotel (Pita Maha) and were very happy with our choice. The hotel nestles on the side of the valley, just on the edge of Ubud town centre. The rooms are not new, but are well maintained, and the views out of the windows are beautiful, with green foliage everywhere.
My one niggle is that smoking is permitted in the restaurant. If only smokers were more considerate of those around them (this is not a criticism of the hotel, although a non-smoking restaurant should be normal in the 21st century).
Hotel Feature Tip:
Tjampuhan Hotel is arranged along a steep valley so there are many steps and narrow paths. For me this is part of the charm but it looked like hard work for some of the older, less fit travellers!
