First of all, great location! Just a short walk to Seminyak Beach and Ku De Ta. The hotel's restaurant was very accomodating to special requests and the supper menu is delicious.

However, on the day we were due to check out, there wasnt anyone manning the reception. So we waited 15minutes before someone appeared. Also, as it was raining heavily that day, none of the hotel staff offered us an umbrella when we wanted to go back to our hotel room to lockup/pick up our luggage. Instead, staff used the umbrellas for themselves while we were left to walk in the rain. I was shocked at this lapse in service as the other staff have been very friendly and accomodating throughout my stay.

Just returned to Au after another amazing 2 weeks at Seminyak Suites. Nothing has changed since last year (we have been a few times in the last 13 months), 20 room hotel, approx. 20yrs. old, two storey, semi-detached suites each overlooking the swimming pool.
Quiet, friendly, clean, good value for money and excellent position - Seminyak! Entry next to Oberoi and a couple of minutes by taxi down a small one way road or 5 - 7 minute walk to top end shopping and many popular places to eat.
However, this will be our last visit with Ian, Lambang and Casey in attendance. Goodbye guys and hope your new venture in Flores (neighbouring island to east - 50min flight), will be even more of a success when your small hotel is completed later this year.
Because we have enjoyed Bali and your last venture so much we will join you when you're up and running. No, we probably won't be trekking through forests to find waterfalls or horseriding around huge lakes, certainly not going to see komodo dragons feeding on live whatever, but we love relaxing, fishing in pristine waters, driving around to see the sights and not having to fight with heaps of other tourists for footpath room. We will add a week or so on Flores to our next Bali trip later this year just to see what this is all about. We've heard the deals will be just as good! Good luck and prosper, thanks again for all your help and hospitality. Cheers, a family of Aussie fans.

The resort is a nice place nestled behind the sprawling old Oberio Hotel, which blocks it direct access to the beach. Access to the beach is via a lane and through Ku De Ta. Personally I like being really close to the Seminyak/Kuta beach as some of the sunsets are really glorious. The is a nice 15 min back alley walk to the many excellent restaurants (Trattoria, Kuni, Mykronos) along Laksmana. The rooms are nice and well renovated. The normal rooms have nice wide spacious toilets, the family room have small toilets but located at the quieter end of the resort. The breakfast is good and sumptious. There is an inhouse tour operator (Rocky and Nyoman) which we used extensively (diving, white-water, day tours) and the service is good and reliable with discounts negotiable. There is an excellent hotel manager but I think he is moving on to Komodo Island. The resort is well maintained. We suffered a one-hour blackout (water also cut) on one day, which is about the single main negative experience here. Otherwise it is a nice place.

We stayed here for a night as it looked close to the beach on google maps and for the price you definitely couldn't beat it. On arriving at the property you couldn't actually find it was the signage was not obvious from the way our driver drove in. However we asked someone and got pointed in the right direction.

You can tell the place is old and worn but the staff who greeted us were friendly and accommodating. It has a nice feel as there are only 16 rooms and the gardens are lush so you don't feel like you are in a chain hotel. The room we had a decent size but again its old and nothing special. The bathroom had been renovated I think but the standard of cleaning was average. All the fittings were covered in lime scale and rusted and the towels looked like they had seen better days. Things like the bag in the rubbish bin hadn't been changed just the rubbish taken out of it. If they were able to tidy up the fittings and give a proper detail the bathroom is actually quite nice and had so much natural night you feel like you are outdoors Its those little things you start to notice that made things start to go downhill.

The worst thing though was the state of the sheets. Already there were grey but felt greasy so my boyfriend said to pull them back and have a look at them before getting in. There were hairs and a few other marks that upon touching were not permanent stains, just dirty sheets. I went and asked for an extra set which I changed myself.

Over the location is good and the price really good for the area. The include breakfast is the best I have had at any hotel and exceedd my expectations. Overall if they were to give everything a makeover, get some crisp linens and update the TV's in the rooms etc it would be a really good set up. I don't want to sound negative but the place has a lot of potential.
