L'Archipel

Hotel yang bagus jauh dari keramaian dan hiruk pikuk, bijaksana, bersih, intim. Yang kurang hanyalah layanan makanan ringan sederhana untuk mengakhiri hari yang dingin di tepi kolam renang luar biasa yang akan menjadikan tempat ini sempurna. Kamar mandi luar ruangannya bagus Tempat tidur yang sempurna Kami akan kembali...

Hotel terletak di daerah yang terkesan tenang, kolam renang bagus, staf ramah, kamar nyaman tapi agak ketinggalan jaman. Sarapan sempurna, buah segar, pancake, telur dadar, dll. Minusnya, masjidnya terlalu dekat, azan terlalu sering

The hotel itself is very nice for its price range. It’s clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The rooms are not big, but it was nice to have an outdoor seating area and felt very private. The pool also looked beautiful, although we did not use it. The staff was very nice and helpful, and the breakfasts were decent. The issue is that this hotel is very close to the central mosque on Gili Air, so you can hear the call to prayer very very loudly. Unlike in the Middle East where you only hear it for 5-10 minutes, each call to prayer + subsequent prayer service lasted at least 60-90 minutes, while on Friday it went on all night long (6pm-5am). We are told this is because it was Ramadan, but if you read other reviews of Gili Air generally, you will see similar complaints about the mosque all year round. It’s very unfortunate because the hotel itself is lovely; however we cut our trip short and left Gili Air after two days because we were unable to get any sleep. We did also walk all around the island to see if there was a place where we couldn’t hear the mosque, but it was clearly audible everywhere. It was a relief to get back to Bali and have a full night’s rest.

The bathroom had a hole in the roof so when it rains and you also want to take a shower it is not practical. Also when taking a shower there is water on the floor. No proper drainage facility. Poor toilet equipment so we had blockages. Every morning breakfast order was messed up. Management need to address the breakfast situation and also invest in better bathroom and toilet facilities. Not value for money.

This was a beautiful place to relax and not far from the beach. Staff were always helpful The pool area was gorgeous. There was a good choice for breakfast. They also could order in if you didn't feel like venturing out for a meal. My only negative was no fridge in our room.
