In less than two weeks I will be jet setting off to Bali for 7 days of sea, sun, sand and relaxation with few temples, rice fields and monkey forests thrown in. Because I have been so busy the past couple of months with travelling around Turkey and Greece and trying to find a job back home I have only just booked my accommodation! Yikes, I know right 12 days to go and only now remembered.
So as usual I use Booking.com to find my perfect accommodation whether it be a hotel, hostel or cute boutique B&B. The past few days I have been browsing, looking at a few different locations in Bali to stay like Kuta, Legian, Seminyak and Uluwatu. I ended up finding this gorgeous small hotel in Kuta just off the main road called The Pavillion Hotel Kuta.
I am staying in a superior double room with pool access. The room for 7 nights is costing me 1,559,006 RP converted to Australian that is around $150, per night around $21.40 AU which is incredibly cheap as this is around the cost of a bed in a 6-8 bed dorm hostel in Europe.
The reason I choose this hotel and not a larger, more known upscale hotel/resort is 1) I’m on a budget 2) I prefer to stay clear of chain hotels and resorts (Pullman, Hilton) as they lack in my opinion and expereince, good quality service due to 100’s of people check in and out everyday 3) Why spend hundreds on $ a day for a room you barley spend anytime in? 4) This hotel has amazing reviews on Booking.com and other websites 5) The pool area totally sold me as it’s just so gorgeous and picturesque
