Element by Marriott Bali Ubud

The restaurant was fantastic; we tried many dishes, and they were all delicious. The towels were a bit yellow, and the facilities were a bit old, but overall, the experience was great.

The room was spacious, but the hotel itself felt old and dated. Some of the faucets were broken, indicating that maintenance was just average. The common areas and facilities weren't as large as I expected, basically just a pool. Transportation convenience was also below expectations. I thought it would only take about ten minutes by taxi to Ubud center, but due to traffic, it actually took much longer, and getting a ride wasn't very easy. The breakfast selection was also relatively limited. Overall, based on this stay, I don't feel it offers great value for money at this price point. It might be worth considering if the price were lower, but at the price I paid this time, I wouldn't recommend it.

The hotel itself isn't very big, and there aren't many shops or restaurants nearby. The rooms are decent, and while the pool and other facilities are a bit limited, they do offer free sports like badminton, table tennis, archery, and basketball.

The room had a slight musty smell, and although the hotel used a strong air freshener, I could still detect it. The service was also quite subpar.

First time staying at a Westin hotel, and I had a great experience! The staff at the front desk, in the hallways, and at the restaurant all greeted me with a warm smile, which made me feel very welcome. The breakfast spread was quite generous, and the à la carte dishes for other meals were delicious. The Element Burger, in particular, was fantastic!

This was quite a satisfying stay in Bali. Choosing to stay for two nights was a very smart decision. The entire hotel exceeded my expectations. The room and bed were both very comfortable. The front desk staff spoke good English and were friendly and patient.
