Located moments from anything you could need; the beach, shopping malls, streets lined with shops offering massages and beauty treatments, Hotel Terrace at Kuta is a great place to stay when you like to be centrally located but still get an incredible night’s sleep. Despite being located on a busy, lively street, I never once had a problem hearing noise during the evenings.
I first found out about Hotel Terrace on TripAdvisor where I noticed that it was rated as the best place to stay in Kuta, so decided to check it out:
The Hotel Terrace at Kuta Review
The hotel is very clean and modern, which is something I really appreciate. It had a relaxed vibe, with a great mix of other guests, including families, married couples and groups of friends. You’ll be hard pressed to find better value than Hotel Terrace, especially considering how nice the rooms are. Oh, and did I mention the beautiful pool?
The pool is really something special.
The Hotel Terrace at Kuta Experience
As per usual, I arrived a little earlier than check-in and while my room was not yet ready, the staff invited me to sit by the pool while I enjoyed my welcome drink. It didn’t take long before my room was ready and I was escorted upstairs to my beautiful room. During my stay, each and every staff member went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed: from an extra key to help finding a pharmacy, nothing was too much hassle.
Each morning there’s a buffet breakfast on offer which covers your basics as well as a few local dishes which is a nice touch. I am a big fan of Balinese coffee so being able to refill my cup as much as I like is a great way for me to start my day.
The highlight of this room, aside from its fantastic location, is the beautiful pool. It’s set up so that you can easily lounge by the pool for hours on end.
The Room
It was so comfortable, clean and modern – the bathroom was ‘inside’ the room but still very private due to the frosty glass, it was a very cool feature. There was a large LCD TV with lots of channels, a mini bar, tea and coffee facilities and a cute little balcony overlooking the pool. One thing I always notice when I’m staying in a hotel is whether there’s much space to put your bags as I tend to overpack. Hotel Terrace at Kuta had ample space for my luggage which I really liked.
My room was on the top floor overlooking the pool. There are also some rooms that are ‘flush’ with the pool on the ground floor. I personally preferred the room with the balcony as my partner occasionally likes to smoke and it was a little more private for that purpose. However, I think it would be quite neat to walk one meter from your room and be staring at the edge of that beautiful pool – what a way to wake up!
Book this hotel if…
You like great value, clean, modern and comfortable rooms and beautiful pools! This hotel is perfect for any type of traveler, from business to family traveler. It’s one of the few places I’ve visited where I get the impression it should cost a lot more than it does.
That hotel looks really good. I would definitely love to stay there.
It was lovely, if you visit Kuta you should stay. It’s a great place to meet people as well 🙂
