Griya Sriwedari

Stayed with family of 5 at this wonderful private property managed by a lovely couple. Strategically located within walking distances to Ubud Central market and many many shops. A peaceful place amidst in a busy area of Ubud. A very clean and well maintained accomodation. We had our good rest and sleep every night of our stay here. A highly recommended place to stay and will definitely return to stay here.

We have stayed here two weeks, and found it to be very comfortable and quiet. Great mattress, best-working toilet we have ever had in a hotel, well-working AC and fan, mosquito netting over the bed, small fridge, closet, large terrace and comfy sofa which overlooks a small garden with trees (pomelo, guava, mango). The hosts were very welcoming and caring. However, there were a few minor issues: the wash basin had only cold water, the shower really needs a make-over (a glass partition wall and door, more light), and there was no manual to the Smart-TV (I didn't use it at all, just couldn't manage it no matter what I tried). My husband loved having nasi for breakfast (extra spicy at his request), I had an veggie omelet a few times but there was too much oil in it to my liking, so bought yoghurt at the large Bintang supermarket (take a taxi) for breakfast. Laundry can be done for a good price, the hotel will take care of this for you. There was a coat stand on the terrace, but that didn't work very well for laundy I had done myself (wrong shape, and it was knocked over several times by the wind). We've sat on the terrace for hours: it's very shady and so not very hot. The walkway to the entrance/ex it was very good (unlike the rest of Ubud, which has horrible sidewalks). Nearby, we had dinner at Fair Warung Bale and coffee at Anomali - both are highly recommended. You will also find the small but lovely Luweng shop nearby (great for non-touristy souvenirs past the entrance), a branch of Periplus (books); there's an ATM nearby at a supermarket (there's two supermarkets next to each other, go to the one on the right). This small-scale hotel is highly recommended to those looking for tranquility and who don't mind not having a pool. However, we do not recommend Ubud: there's no public transportation and taxi drivers will not take you to any place they consider to be nearby, sidewalks are absolutely horrible, the worst we have ever seen.

If you want to be close to the action but not the noise, this is the spot! Lovely hostess and good breakfast (only served 8-10, so tough if going on a tour). Lovely bed, fridge and kettle! Felt perfectly safe walking in dark asI stayed in town for dancing!

Nice family run property close to the main Ubud shopping and restaurant area but in a quiet off street location, staff and owner were very helpful and communicated well, we had a very clean single room with en suite in a pleasant courtyard setting.

This is in a great spot in Ubud. The entrance to the accommodation is actually up an alley way, it’s easy to find when you know what you are looking for. The people were so lovely and accommodating and the setting is generally very quiet and peaceful. The air conditioner works well but the rooms are not well sound proofed so as a light sleeper, you can be disturbed early as locals start their day. Breakfast was basic but tasty.
