Amoya Inn

Amoya Inn is definitely a place worth staying in Ubud. We came back after four years and stayed here again for almost a month, which probably says a lot about how much we like this place. It is a small and charming property with only eight rooms, a beautiful green garden and a shared swimming pool. One of the biggest advantages is the size of the rooms. They are very spacious, and it is difficult to find rooms this large in Ubud in this price range. We stayed on the third floor and had a beautiful view of the garden and the surrounding greenery. The location is also excellent. Amoya Inn is right in the centre of Ubud, but it is set back from the main street and you reach it by walking through a traditional Balinese family compound. Because of this, it is surprisingly quiet and peaceful, even though restaurants, shops and the busy centre of Ubud are only a short walk away. The staff are very kind and helpful, the breakfasts are good, everything is clean, and the garden and pool make it a very pleasant place to relax. We really enjoyed our second long stay here and would definitely recommend Amoya Inn.

As this was our second stay after four years, we could see that some parts of the rooms are starting to show their age. The rooms would benefit from some small renovations and maintenance. There were some scratches and marks on the walls, a few places where the paint needs refreshing, and some furniture needed simple repairs, such as a drawer that did not work properly and damaged hinges in the wardrobe. These are small things and they did not spoil our stay, but they become more noticeable when staying for several weeks. Most of them also seem quite easy to repair, so we hope the rooms will receive a little refresh in the future. The main issue for us was the bathroom. The water pressure was quite low and it was sometimes difficult to get a comfortable water temperature in the shower – the water could quickly change from very hot to cold. We reported the problem with the water pressure, but unfortunately it was not fully resolved during our stay. These issues did not change our overall very positive experience. We still really like Amoya Inn and would happily recommend it. We only hope that some small maintenance and renovation will help this lovely place keep its high standard for many more years.

Small hotel, pretty environment and outlook, nice pool, lovely staff, central location, quiet, large and comfortable room with balcony, nice breakfast included. Reasonable cost. Very few insects. Good air con and wifi.

It wasn't a problem for us, but be aware you must walk to the hotel from the street down a narrow alley and through a sort of temple area. There are steps up and down and gateways that might make arrival challenging for people with mobility issues or large suitcases, and if your room is on an upper floor there is no lift (staff will help with suitcases). Breakfast is ordered the day before from a menu, and it is delivered to your room at your requested time in the morning--a lovely touch that might not suit everyone. Some parts of the room and building are looking tired. Our toilet lid looked like part of it might have been in a fire. The pool is small. Don't expect 4- or 5-star accommodation and amenities, and you'll be fine.

Everything was great. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The pool was relaxing. Tje staff were fantastic. The location was perfect too, right in the middle of the main sights in Ubud but very quiet and calm and set back from the street.

Clean & friendly staff

Way to many stairs for me 😳
