13. Some Bali hotels

This page shows some pictures of some hotels we've stayed at in Bali in case you are choosing a place to stay. Right now it only has pictures of the Tjampuhan, in Ubud, and the Pondok Wisata Patal Kikian in Sideman. Most of these hotels have websites, these are just extra pictures we took

Our5 favorite hotels are:
1. Tjampuhan, in Ubud - in the 1920s, one of the Rajas lent his estate to the painter who made Ubud famous; his original cottage is in the midst of this charming hotel

2. Pande Permai, in Ubud - one of the hotels in the escapesltd package, very nice location near the Monkey Forest

3. Tegal Sari, in Ubud - a little out of town, exceptional atmosphere, rooms, service, services, in the rice paddies

4. Pondok Wisata Patal Kikian, in Sidemen - out in rural paradise, magical view of the sacred mountain, fabulous food

5. Pondok Sari, in Pemuteran - for rural beach village, diving, massages. Boutique hotel, quite lovely, You can see 2 pictures of this in Craig's blog #10 about diving.

2. These are pictures from Sideman: Pondok Wisata Patal Kikian

Set on a hillside in rural Bali, this is a boutique hotel with 6 or 7 separate small houses, no central dining room. YOu have your own bungalow, and 3 times a day people appear, ask if you ready to eat, and deliver food to your balcony. Down the hill and down the road are a small muslim village, then a small Balinese town, Sideman; up the road are more villages, and amazing scenery. There is not much to besides take in the Sacred Mountain, explore, eat, rest. It's an amazing place. These pictures are all of one cottage, it is all private space. Our cottage also came with lovely books related to the area, and a little photo album showing old photos of former guests including Mick Jagger, Roman Polanski, Nastasia Kinski
