Komaneka at Monkey Forest

My husband and I travelled to Ubud, from Seminyak for a few days - and chose the Komaneka Monkey Forest b/c of it's location. We were able to walk to Monkey Forest and tons of restaurants. There's also a great reflexology place right outside of the hotel entrance ($4 for a 40 min foot rub) The hotel itself is very well kept and the staff are very friendly. They're the kindest people I've ever encountered. Nice pool area. If you choose reserve a room with a dipping pool, ask if its in a shaded spot. Ours was, so it never warmed up,... more

The staff at the Monkey Forest Road are friendly and considerate. They make every effort to meet your needs. The resort on Monkey Forest Road has an excellent location. It is in the center of Ubud. Set back from the street, you walk out of the resort directly onto Monkey Forest Road. The market and palace are a short walk (3 blocks) away. The Monkey Forest Sanctuary is 3 to 4 blocks the other direction. Excellent restaurants such as Cafe Wayan (great chocolate cake) and Three Monkeys (wonderful salads and gelato) are close by.... more

From the moment my husband & I walked into this hotel we totally forgot everything else. This hotel oozes tranquillity,serenity & relaxation. We stayed for three nights in a Private Pool Villa over our wedding anniversary. There is no detail that they have not thought of. When we were shown to our room it was the most romantic place I have ever seen. There is even a large shopping bag for when you walk into town,bedtime stories on your bed each night,Nightgowns,turn down service. Looking over the rice fields is beautiful.<br... more

Having read some really positive feedback about this hotel on Tripadvisor, we decided to take a couple of nights out of our planned hotel stay in Nusa Dua and head inland. We weren't disappointed. It was an amazing place, tucked away just off Monkey Forest Road and within walking distance to restaurants, shops and the Monkey Forest. We chose a pool villa, as it was our honeymoon and it couldn't have been more perfect. It is a small, quiet 'boutique' style hotel. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean. We had a sunken bath, shower,... more

We stayed for two nights in this lovely hotel at the beginning of March 2008. The hotel is situated right in the middle of Ubud on the main street but you feel as if you are in a tropical paradise as soon as you enter the hotel grounds. On arrival we were greeted with a welcome drink and the reception staff were so nice and couldn't be more helpful. When they showed us to our room we were absolutely delighted. The king size bed had a heart of flowers displayed on it. We were on the ground floor with the porch looking out to the... more

We recently stayed at Komaneka Monkey Forest in one of their 2 suite rooms. Overall, we had a restful time and the room was modern and very comfortable, with a great view of the rice fields beside the resort. The service was also very good. Everyone we greeted was cheerful and polite and efficient. What was most impressive, however, was their attention to detail. Every night, they laid out freshly washed pajamas for us on the bed alongside a small pamphlet with a bedtime story. One night, we had to move the small 14 or 15 inch... more

Almost perfect.....We had a 2 week holiday in Bali, with 3 stops at similarly priced accomodation. Mandira in Legian, Komaneka in Ubud and Melia Benoa in Nusa Dua. The Komaneka was a hands down winner. They were better in so many ways, this was probably helped a bit by the fact that they were much smaller than the other two hotels but they still did all the little things that gave a human touch to the place. Certainly not as grand as the Mandira and Melia Benoa, this hotel was still very well presented. It is tucked away on Monkey Forest... more

I can not speak more highly of our stay at Komaneka in Monkey Forest Road. We were fortunate enough to stay in a Pool Villa which was absolutely amazing. The staff are simply divine & the location is second to none. We were trying to choose between 2 hotels before we decided on Komaneka and I am so happy we did. In fact, I am planning to return again later this year. I urge all of those contemplating a visit to Ubud and Komaneka Resort to definately do it. You wont regret it!

We stayed at Komaneka Resort from 2/9-2/14/08 and we were completely impressed. Even though it is on the main street in Ubud---the minute you step foot into the resort, you could be a million miles away. The service is awesome and the rooms were wonderful. I would definitely stay at this place again and again....IF, they would change the way they conduct billing. Here is the deal: When I called to book a room, I was quoted in American dollars. When I got to the hotel, they converted that Amerian dollar figure into a Rupiahs (bad exchange... more

After reading about Komaneka on trip advisor we contacted the property directly after arriving in Bali. We wanted a week in Ubud and hoped they would accommodate with some discount off rack rate for the week. They did, and we were delighted with our splurge -- we stayed in the 'deluxe room' which is their most affordable option and it gave us PLENTY of room. It came with the extras like the flowers decorating the bed (see other reviews) and lots of details we haven't seen elsewhere -- a rack for umbrellas outside the front door, extra... more
