Arlina's Kintamani

There were no reservations for the room I booked, so I was able to stay there for the remaining two nights, but I couldn't stay for the other two nights and had to find another place to stay. Even after initiating the refund process, it hasn't been processed yet, and the hotel staff seemed indifferent and unwilling to help resolve the issue. Aside from that, they were very friendly and I had a pleasant stay, but the reservation system was vague and made me uneasy. The hot springs and pool were spacious, clean, and had great views; it was very relaxing. The food I ordered from the restaurant was brought to my room, so I wasn't bothered by flies. The spring rolls were delicious.

A great place to stay in Kintamani. We especially loved the hot springs on the hotel grounds—it was just what we needed after walking and climbing Mount Batur. The views of the lake and mountains are simply stunning. The room was clean and cozy, and the staff was very friendly. We would happily stay here again.

We stayed at the hotel for one night before heading to Batur by jeep, so I can't really comment on the location. But the view of Batur is beautiful, and there are cafes and shops nearby. We liked the hot spring pools. The room was basic, and the furniture was outdated, but perfectly usable. The downside is that there were a lot of flies. But that's not the case with this particular hotel; it's the same everywhere in the area.

⤵️We stayed at 📍Arlina's Kintamani. It looks fine from the outside, but inside it's so shabby and tired that it's better to rent a different one. But it was fine for a couple of nights, and the hot pools with thermal water made up for all the shortcomings! 🔥♨️ ❌Unfortunately, there are some downsides: 😞Everything is very old and needs replacing. 😞The plumbing barely works, the water is cold, and the shower falls apart in your hands 🚿, splashing everywhere, making it impossible to wash properly. 😞The musty smell in the room is inescapable. 😞No kettle, no refrigerator. 😊No air conditioning (it's not needed; it's cold, but it's not enough for ventilation). 😐Lots and lots of flies everywhere 🪰, but that's not the hotel's problem, it's the town of Kintomani's problem. ✔️But there are some positives: 🤩The start of the trail to Mount Batur is within walking distance! 🥾 🤩Beautiful, well-kept garden 🌿 🤩The view of Mount Batur from the grounds and the pools is breathtaking! 🤩There's a cafe, you can order fish from the lake. 🤩And most importantly, the hot pools ♨️ as many as 5 of them, something for every taste! In any case, thanks to the hosts for their hospitality and I hope they replace the plumbing and the worn-out toilet seat.

A very nice hostess. Everything is a bit dated, of course. It's good for one or two nights. The hostess has her own cafe. She met us at 10 pm and cooked dinner. Super. There are pools outside the fence, she says, hot springs. Not bad, we swam for a couple of hours.

These wonderful people welcomed us to this hotel with such warmth. They cook delicious food! I'd also like to mention the warm pools and the beautiful view.

Excellent springs, three hot baths and a pool. No air conditioning in the room. Kitchen charges an additional fee.

Overall, it's an okay hotel. We rented it for one night. It's not worth staying here for long. BUT the sink had scratches on it, like someone had been scraping it with their fingernails, like Annabelle.
