Guest Ratings & Reviews
I felt right at home in this hotel with beautifully decorated rooms overlooking the rice fields. The lack of certain amenities like proper lighting, a desk, and air conditioning is a downside, but the thoughtful details in the room design make up for it. The service was incredibly friendly and welcoming, going above and beyond for every guest. The location, nestled among picturesque rice terraces, is perfect for a serene retreat, though it can be a bit challenging to return to the hotel after hours. The dining experience was delightful, offering a variety of vegan and gluten-free options that change daily. The facilities were well-maintained and added to the overall pleasant stay.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were beautifully appointed, I stayed in room 8, which was the only room with an internal ensuite in the block I was in, featuring private bathrooms outside the room and a big, very comfortable bed. The service was impeccable with beautiful and friendly people who made me want to move to the jungle. The location was perfect, nestled in a green area surrounded by rice fields yet just a 10-minute ride from the center of Ubud. The dining experience was awesome, although there were some issues with clean cups or spoons. The facilities were top-notch, providing a blend of comfort and luxury.
The hotel is an oasis of calm with beautiful and comfortable rooms that are exquisitely designed, offering special touches like a record player, private pool, and a rooftop yoga/daybed area. The spacious bathroom with a lovely tub and a gorgeous view of the jungle adds to the charm. The friendly and professional service truly makes Soulshine stand out, offering a variety of convenient amenities. While the dining options are delightful, the facilities could use some improvement.
The hotel offers a unique jungle experience with outdoor showers and private bathrooms outside the room. The lobby features a relaxing soaked tub with beautiful views of the jungle. However, the outdoor bathrooms may not suit everyone's preference.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positive and negative experiences. The rooms were beautiful and clean, offering a peaceful environment away from street noise. However, there were some drawbacks like insufficient lighting, no work desk and chair, and oddly located air conditioning in relation to the bed.
