The hotel

This hotel blends contemporary design with traditional Balinese architecture. Design-led and very stylish, the Alila Ubud is a secluded hillside retreat renowned for its dramatic infinity pool with amazing views, which appears to float over the valley below. Its lush gardens, secluded courtyards and terraces create a wonderfully intimate and peaceful atmosphere. The Spa Alila nurtures body and mind, and sources many of its spa ingredients locally in the Balinese foothills, and with the therapists using ancient asian healing techniques and age-old beauty recipes you are sure to feel rejuvenated and refreshed after a visit. If you wish to get out and about there is a leisure concierge that will help you discover more about this fascinating area by trekking or cycling locally or organising cultural learning with visits to Balinese dancing events.

Spectacular setting, spectacular pool, monkeys, rice paddies...this is a very special place. Spent four nights here in July 2024 with family. This is mostly for couples but we had all of our kids, and it was fine. The setting of this hotel is one of the most amazing I have ever been to.

Spectacular setting, spectacular pool, monkeys, rice paddies...this is a very special place. Spent four nights here in July 2024 with family. This is mostly for couples but we had all of our kids, and it was fine. The setting of this hotel is one of the most amazing I have ever been to. You are nicely positioned to explore Ubud and all of the surrounding attractions. You can walk to rice paddies right next to the hotel, it is amazingly beautiful. Monkeys right near the hotel...generally well behaved but they do get into mischief. I would love to come back here. The one thing that I'd change...the portions at the restaurant can be very small. I wish they'd just amp things up by about 20%. Read less

The Alila Ubud is absolutely fantastic, stunning scenery and the most caring and attentive staff we have ever come across. The staff could not do enough for you and constantly went above and beyond to make sure your stay was the best it could be. Cannot recommend highly enough.

The hotel is amazing. The service is impeccable, everyone knows us, everyone cared, and everyone tried their best to help. All restaurant staff we encourtered was super nice. There was one little hiccup of a late pickup from ubud town, but the service recovery was great. Overall, great stay.

Booked their standard room, quite small, but has a nice view of the mountain. I had some issues with the clogged shower that was later fixed. Besides from the spa and unheated pool, there were really not much to do in the hotel, and the shuttle to town ran infrequently and ended early making it though for a long stay.
