Scene
Nice value hotel in Ubud with rice paddy views, two outdoor pools, and a spa
The Biyukukung Suites and Spa is a budget-friendly hotel that’s centrally located in Bali’s Ubud district, offering a bit of tranquility from a no-fuss property that overlooks rice paddies. Guests are welcomed on arrival with a cold drink in the informal lobby that has a thatched roof. The parking lot, crowded with mopeds, is at the entrance of the hotel. The property’s rice paddies create a rural feeling not found in most value-priced Ubud hotels. Floral-patterned walkways lead through the grounds, which are shaded by tropical plants and bamboo.
The main pool -- with a blue-painted bottom, tropical landscaping, fountains, and submerged stools -- looks like a lagoon, overlooking the rice fields. Two bathrooms are on the deck, where there are also lounge chairs, pool towels, and a terrace with patio seating. The second pool has a spill-over edge and a small deck that offers a few lounge chairs. A thatched-roof gazebo has lounge beds and pillows. The small spa features basic treatment rooms, a soaking tub with a skylight, a thatched-roof terrace lounge, and a hair salon. Overall the atmosphere is unfussy and peaceful.
