Bali Spirit Hotel & Spa

Let me start with saying that is you want the hassle and bustle of the city center this one is not for you. Bali Spirit Hotel & Spa is a resort that is located a bit outside of the town Ubud. It is built into a slope that is overlooking a small stream that goes along side the property. For me, it captured the Spirit of Bali, and the beautiful garden is relaxing and a feast for the eyes. I was at the Bali Spirit Hotel & Spa with my parents who are in their seventies, and they also enjoyed it a lot. Its a little outside of Ubud, but they offer a free shuttle that goes into town. In my case, I rented a car but driving in Bali might not be for everyone. The included breakfast is OK; for me, it was missing a good coffee in the morning. There are two swimming pools that are nicely maintained and easily accessible. The staff was friendly and room service food was good. I liked the place a lot and will be surly go back when I am in Bali again sometime.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was large overlooking the river. Beautiful gardens. Only detracting for some people would be the steps and bath /shower in one with low pressure. Food was great and restaurant had excellent ambience. Staff were friendly and accommodating

I will most definitely be staying here again! The grounds are stunningly beautiful especially around the main pool area! Only negative was the room we booked looked nothing like the photos online but as I am not a fussy person this did not affect my overall experience at this hotel. The staff are friendly and extremely helpful when trying to book big day trips. Location is close to the Main Street in Ubud and having a free shuttle was really nice

This is a very relaxing good hotel after my stay in seminyak and uluwatu. a great escape for couple. we rented a car for our time in Bali, so we did not experience any difficulties with public transports. however, my friends went different ways and they were traveling fine with PT. great swimming pool and staff. good food. a lot of things to do around UBUD. the hotel provide a free shuttle bus into the city and back to the hotel,, double check with the hotel when u check in. but they are pretty informative, they will explain everything to you. enjoy your stay, u will love this hotel.

The view of the river from our room is lovely. The room has also a balcony, a great place to relax and hang out in the morning and in the evening. The staff is friendly and helpful. The room is clean and spacious. It comes with very nice artistic door, the bed is also made from solid wood. It gives us enjoyable feeling in overall. The hotel also offers shuttle bus to Ubud Town Centres couple times a day where there are a lot of performance centres, restaurants, shops, etc. The "Monkey Forest" is within less than 20 minutes walk from the hotel. There is not much things to do nearby the hotel. After 10pm, it was dark. Few houses on the right side of the hotel, there is a local restaurant to get breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

My friend and I stayed at Bali Spirit for 5 nights and it was wonderful. Very friendly staff- always available when needed and we loved that it was located so closely to Ubud Yoga Centre. Would stay again :)

We loved our stay at Bali Spirit Hotel. The free shuttle service to Monkey Forest Rd allows you to have the choice to head into the "big smoke" of Ubud if you desire ... but if you're planning for a relaxed and quiet few days, this place is perfect. If you are out late, be prepared that the taxi services cease at 11pm on dot (if not earlier) so plan your nights accordingly. The roads are not well lit, as it's away from the main area of Ubud. It's a good 30 minute walk from Monkey Forest Rd, and the stray dogs are out and about at night (I learned that the hard way!). The only star missing for "facilities" is in regards to the restaurant. We found better (authentic Indonesian) food outside the main hotel. But again, that's a personal preference only. We were there for a wedding at a close-by resort, so didn't get to sample the day spa. My review is for location, room, facilities and service alone.

Great resort, good location ( a little out of town but free shuttle in and out) the shuttle could run a bit more often. Staff are lovely and friendly and helpful. Resort has the most amazing tropical gardens. Liked the pool and the woodfired pizza by the pool ( not always open, maybe only when a few people at pool not in quieter days). Villas are roomy and nice Balinese style. A bit older but nice. We had a great one we could just see the main pool ( room 201). We loved it here.

Fabulous Hotel, we wish we would have spent more time here as we didn't get to enjoy all the awesome facilities on the hotel grounds. The location is slightly far from Ubud but they have a complimentary shuttle, which could only be improved by running a bit more often. However, you could pay a small fee to take the shuttle whenever you wanted.

a beautiful place to have a quiet escape form everything, the surroundings are spectacular, not a place to go if you have trouble with stairs as there are many to conquer, we stayed in the river suite and the views from the room and balcony were stunning. the pool area was deluxe, great spa and free shuttle, very tasty breakfast, definitely a place I would revisit

Absolutely incredible stay at Bali Spirit! Helpful, friendly and sincere staff. Lush, vibrant and tidy grounds with awesome views. Pool was immaculately clean. Swim-up bar and poolside wood-burning pizza oven were on point. Room was spacious, comfortable and cleaned spotless each day. Only ate breakfast (everyday) at the restaurant but it was delicious. 5-10 minute motorbike to monkey forest road.

Beautiful resort with green and good building architecture. Friendly and helpful staffs. We stayed at the president suite on top of the hill with our kids. Spacious and comfortable. Travel to town area riding rental motorcycle is a short 5 mins. Resort has shutter bus to town also

Nicely tucked away outside the hustle n bustle that is now Ubud central. This place keeps on giving! Many twists and turns reveal beautiful little books, tranquil gardens and serene statues. A sheer visual delight! Just be mindful this gorgeous property has quite a few steps!

Built on a hillside, individual units have privacy behind lush landscaping. We even had an outdoor shower with our own private garden. Very attentive and pleasant staff. 10 minutes to Ubud centre, but nice local village nearby.

This was my second stay at Bali Spirit, having been several years earlier. Ubud has changed a lot in that time (not necessarily for the better), but the hotel is still a really lovely spot to stay with excellent service from its many staff. We stayed for over a week and were upgraded to a large suite overlooking a new pool, which for the most part we had entirely to ourselves. The suite was comfortable and had a huge bathroom. The only downside was the bed, which was huge but a bit uncomfortable and squeaky. The hotel is made up of many buildings and outdoor structures, which may not entirely be up to western standards, but if anything we really enjoyed staying somewhere which is very sympathetic to its location and relatively traditional. The garden setting is wonderful. There are many lovely spots to sit in around the gardens and it's easy to spend time in the grounds without seeing many other guests at all. It is set on the side of a hill so it can be a bit of a trek up to leave the property, but provided you don't have mobility problems it should be fine. The restaurant is in a beautiful spot overlooking the river, but like last time I thought the food could do with improving. Breakfast was a bit on the small size if you wanted something substantial and the menu got a bit 'samey'. The bar in the main hotel pool is a great spot to relax in the shade and try out some of the cocktail menu (all good!). The staff at Bali Spirit couldn't do enough to help us. They were all friendly and good at their jobs. We were driven by the hotel drivers on a number of occasions, including around Ubud, to and from Denpasar and on a day trip further afield. They were excellent in even the most chaotic traffic and made sure we got where we needed to safely and well-informed.

I have only good things to say about our stay at Bali Spirit Hotel. Built into the side of a hill, we found the accommodations to be very well presented, very clean and with attention to detail. The staff were helpful and courteous, the booking and check-in check-out procedure worked very well. The included in price breakfast was American Breakfast from a menu which was more than enough and well presented. The restaurant meals were above average. The gardens were dotted with little places to sit quietly on your own and the staff were unobtrusive yet attentive. Gorgeous property overlooking a rustic river where village children bathed and mothers washed their clothes. Free 2 hourly shuttle into town and back. We were in the Legong Suite Room 302. Large TV and dvd player available. We were there for Nyepi Festival and the staff provided meals and lighting throughout the day along with advice on where to attend Ogah-Ogah Festival the previous evening. Thank you Bali Spirit Hotel for a wonderful stay.

Bali Spirit was perfect for a quiet, tropical escape. Beautiful gardens, great location, chiseled into the side of a valley and overlooking a gorgeous fresh water river. Staff were very focused on making us comfortable. Great pool and swim up bar. Loved it!

after spending nights in places like Kuta and Seminyak, Ubud is beautiful in a natural way. coming from Singapore, i am always frightened by creepy crawlies such as spiders, butterflies, mosquitoes, etc. so you can image me squirming throughout my stay. however what made me fall in love with Ubud, especially Bali Spirit Hotel is waking up to the sound of birds chirping and monkeys chattering. right out our window is vast tall trees, giving you the impression of what it's like to live in a forest. the river beside the hotel gives you a glimpse into the locals' way of life. breakfast is limited but they made up with reliable shuttle services and turn on the electrical mosquito repellent for you in the evening. for the price we pay, i will say that this is a highly recommended place and we wish to come back again!

We had a wonderful stay at Bali Spirit. It is a beautiful place cut into the hillside. If you're not very mobile, you might have problems with the stairs but we were fine with our 6 and 3 year olds. They loved the pool and the staff were incredibly helpful and on the whole, spoke very good English. Great value for money.

We stayed at The Bali Spirit for our honeymoon in August and from the 1st second we arrived and received the warmest greeting, we knew this was going to be a special stay. The grounds of the hotel are stunning, seemingly carved out of a forest and with the sound of fountains and nature everywhere you walk. The staff there were so friendly and helpful and, like all Balinese people we met, were always smiling. This is a peaceful hotel and there is not much to do in the evening but Ubud town is just a short drive away and they provide a free shuttlebus. I can't recommend Bali Spirit highly enough for anyone who wants a beautiful, peaceful location in an amazing part of Bali. You can relax the days away with some drinks at the pool bar or there are many spa options. We would definitely go back there and can't thank the staff enough for our unforgettable stay.
