Arma Museum Resort & Villas Bali

We stayed in a superior villa with a private pool, but overall the experience was quite disappointing. Let's start with the positives: the hotel gardens are truly stunning. Since it's an art museum after all, the overall aesthetic is on point and the landscaping and greenery are无可挑剔 (impeccable). However, as a hotel, that's pretty much where the pros end. We were assigned Room 103, which is the most remote room located at the very back of the property, feeling completely segregated from the main area. Walking back from the front desk requires navigating a few small slopes and alleys, which felt a bit daunting every night on the way to the room. The room itself is very outdated—so old that I couldn't even find a power outlet to charge my phone, and I ultimately had to unplug the bedside lamp to charge it. There are also a lot of mosquitoes, and the electric mosquito repellent was practically useless. On the second day, housekeeping didn't replace the bath towels, and they probably left the door open while cleaning, resulting in even more mosquitoes inside. There was even bird droppings on the mosquito net. Breakfast was terrible with very few options, and the milk tasted somewhat spoiled, so we just went out for breakfast on the second day. At checkout, because we went hiking in the morning and didn't get back until 11:30 AM, we asked if it would be possible to extend checkout by half an hour to 12:30 PM. We were told that not a single minute could be extended and we had to check out strictly by 12:00 PM. All in all, both the room hardware and the service fell far short of expectations this time.

Large and beautiful grounds. The breakfasts are standard, with a decent but limited selection. There are evening shows for a fee (some rooms may include free access). The room is in a Baltic style, not new, but clean.

This is a beautiful place, with lush greenery, lotus ponds, a river, and rice terraces all in one spot. I didn't want to leave! You can even have photoshoots on the premises. The prices for services (restaurant, spa) are a bit higher than average. The restaurant food is delicious, and the breakfast is excellent. There's a traditional dance show every evening. The location is very convenient. The hotel is integrated with a museum, offering guests the chance to experience the unique culture of Bali.

An incredibly beautiful resort grounds. A magical garden with ponds, statues, and birds! Very unique. The hotel is part of a museum complex, and staying here includes free admission to two museums plus a discount on the spa. There is also an open-air concert venue on-site where you can watch the Kecak dance in the evening. There are two lovely and clean swimming pools on the grounds. Don't count on a good breakfast—you're better off heading to a nearby café.

This hotel was highly recommended by GPT, and I initially went in with low expectations after seeing its average rating on Ctrip. To my surprise, it turned out to be the biggest highlight of my trip! The property is very spacious, and our family villa had ample room with a fantastic private pool experience. The facilities exceeded our expectations. The garden landscaping created a wonderful ambiance, and we even saw some small animals kept by the hotel. The front desk staff thoughtfully helped us book front-row center seats for the fire dance performance, and the performers were very interactive. The only minor regret was a temporary hot water malfunction in the villa, and the wait for repairs was a bit long, leading to a few cold showers during that time. However, overall, it's still highly recommended.

The hotel is connected to a museum, and guests get free admission. The restaurant is good, and the rooms have a very unique, staggered layout. Natural scenery and artistic ambiance complement each other perfectly. However, the in-room facilities are quite ordinary, especially the bathroom. There are quite a few mosquitoes at night, and since the hotel keeps various animals on the property, roosters might crow in the middle of the night.

I stayed at a private pool villa that was undergoing renovation, so I got a great deal! Even though it's Ubud with lots of ants and mosquitoes, the service was so friendly and they responded immediately to every request, making for a very comfortable stay!
