Alamdhari Resort and Spa

Menginap di Alamdhari Resort sungguh luar biasa. Kamar-kamarnya luas dan tempat tidurnya nyaman. Restorannya menyediakan banyak pilihan makanan, dan semuanya sangat lezat, termasuk sarapan besar setiap pagi. Tempat ini sangat cocok untuk bersantai dan menikmati pemandangan, karena properti ini terletak di kaki Gunung Agung di antara hamparan sawah yang subur. Dari staf hotel hingga restoran dan layanan spa, layanannya luar biasa.

We had a wonderful stay, our room (54) was generous in size with views across the valley. It was very tranquil especially after a 5 day stay in Ubud. Sidemen is very beautiful and I’m glad we have had the opportunity to see it now because I fear overdevelopment is on its way. Not much to see in the Main Street, it’s all about the rise fields, the lush greens of the valley and the smiling faces of the locals. Breakfast is a little ordinary but there are so many options outside the gate if you want something more. The resort is very well located for walking, dinning options and experiencing the beauty of Sidemen.

If you've never been to Sidemen before, they for sure - you'll love this place. There are lots of really nice things about it. But as someone who lives in Bali and has visited many Sidemen hotels, I personally feel this place does not warrant the price tag. We had a nice stay, but I personally wouldn't rush back here. The staff is all kind and friendly, but I wouldn't personally say competent or that the place is overall well managed. PROS: - large King size bed - quality pillows (they gave us extra pillows because they actually only give two tiny ones which is strange on such a big bed) - nice pool - nice view (although this is the case everywhere in Sidemen) - air con in the room (although you don't need it) - breakfast was a lot larger than I was expecting. Quite a few choices - strong wifi (this is rare!) CONS: - not accessible in the slightest. I am pregnant and had to jump across a bunch of stones along a fountain in order to use the lobby toilet. Also tons of stairs everywhere. - my biggest complaint: they filled the pool with lots of chlorine around 7am, meaning the pool isn't really safe to use in the morning. We came to just hang by the pool and this was really annoying. Their gardener said the pool was fine to use but we have a pool and know this is not true. There were huge chlorine granules everywhere. Most hotels put chlorine in at night to ensure it's safe to use in the am - could really improve their breakfast service in terms of staff training - getting coffee takes forever, toilet is out of tissue by 8am and this isn't replaced until after breakfast service - towels are very ratty and thin -I know this sounds very petty, but they have all these big koi fish everywhere but don't bother to offer food for kids to feed them - maybe silly, but almost hotel in Bali does offer food and this just felt so so cheap. Anyways, again - not a bad hotel and we did enjoy our stay, but for over 1juta a night, we expected a higher quality of service and amenities.
