I stayed at the Tegal Sari July 1-8 and found the property largely lives up to its reputation. I had a midlevel room which was quite reasonable, and enjoyed having a rice field right outside my verada and having breakfast every morning on the veranda. Food was really good, especially breakfast. I did eat at the restaraunt and it has reasonable prices and good variety. Staff were always helpful and cheerful. The location was superior, close enough to town to walk most places yet removed from the noise and hustle of the city. The only really negative experience was that myself and another couple made arrangements to go to one of the local dances and our pickup was late, saying they could not find us, when we were exactly where we were told to be. They were apologetic, so I did blow this out of proportion, but did honestly express my feelings.

I absolutely would stay there again.

We stayed there for 3 nights last June. We had to change rooms after two nights which was a shame since the first room was nicer than the latter. Regardless of that the hotel was simply brilliant and very moderately priced in my opinion. The location is very good, the view from the rooms excellent and all service superb.

The views from the rooms are spectacular. You look right out over rice fields (nice ones). Everywhere the atmosphere is Balinese and relaxing. It feels much more like Bali than an expensive hotel. All the extras (laundry, minibar, ... ) are very reasonably priced. Our room--one of the less expensive ones--was completely quiet. We had large glass doors in front of the bed that looked over the rice fields. Our bathroom had a bath next to a window that looked out over the rice fields. The shower was Balinese style with a slate to stand on in the middle of a small garden of round stones. The breakfast was very good. The staff were all friendly and helpful. It had a homey feel. It was fully booked, but didn't feel crowded at all; it felt like there were hardly any other guests.

The more expensive rooms seemed to be worth the additional expenditure.

We commented on the beautiful landscaping, with a huge variety of tropical plants growing everywhere. They told us that actually when the hotel was built they had little money left over for landscaping, so they just let everything grow wild. Fortunately it worked out great.

i have stayed in super delux room. the room was located in front of the ricefied and had amazing view. we could also see the ricefield from our bathroom. room was fairly big and tidy. however the sofa and cushions were little bit old....if they can change some of amenities, this hotel will be much better.

all the staff was really helpful, polite and friendly. there was free transport to ubud anything you like.

the location was good. you can get everything near the hotel and not too far from the ubud central.
