Nick's Hidden Cottages by Mahaputra-CHSE Certified

Our room was basic, but was fine. The little balcony was a bonus. We were close to Monkey Forest on the street behind Monkey Forest Road. It was close to shopping and restaurants. Breakfast was good -- a choice of Indonesian or American breakfast was available. The staff was very nice and accommodating.

I was lucky enough to me given a renovated room and it was outstanding. Fabulous modern decor including a kitchenette style bench with a kettle and minibar. The bathroom was stunning, the nicest I’ve seen in Bali. There were fresh frangipanis dotted all over the room and inside the cupboards. The staff are welcoming and helpful. Rooms were cleaned everyday and a night time turn down service was also provided. Staff organised laundry to be done for me. 9 items for $5. They also organised my return taxi to the airport. On the morning of departure I was too early for breakfast so they bought me some fruit to eat while I waited for my driver. The grounds are just beautiful, lovely architecture, statues and plants. It is peaceful and serene here. You can hear the water in the ravine below. There are lots of stairs on this property so if you have mobility issues this may be not be suitable. The lovely pool is down at the bottom of the property. I had it to myself most of the time. There are about 8 sun lounges and 2 umbrellas. Could probably do with a few more umbrellas. The water was lovely and cool however the tiles around the edge on a sunny day were like lava. There are no stairs only a ladder which puts you in the deep end. I found the pool very hard to get in and out of to be honest. Younger and more limber guests may not have this issue. The location is great on JL Bisma, a much quieter street than Monkey Forest Rd. Numerous restaurants, spas, convenience stores along this street. Short walk around to Monkey Forest Rd and others. I highly recommend this boutique hotel and will absolutely be booking here again. An absolute gem of a find.

LOVED our room above the reception, we had a separate living / seating area, giant 4 poster bed with drapes and the bathroom was huge - could do with a little freshen up but was perfect for our needs. I stayed with my best friend for 8 days and we absolutely loved the pool, filtered water to fill up our bottles located in reception and by the pool and the breakfast was incredible. Bodhi the manager is so funny, lovely and friendly. The ginger tea on arrival is so lovely, I've even encouraged them to put it on the menu as it is so tasty and refreshing! I 100% can't wait to stay again! The cottages are truly hidden and we saw monkeys swinging from the trees, loved the ducks on the pathway and the nature that was surrounding. Absolute gem hidden in central Ubud with local shops, restaurants, tattoo, gift shops, ice-cream - fantastic location! Miss you all so much and thank you for making our stay with you so exceptional :) Suksma, Amanda and Amanda :)

It’s such a beautiful hotel, the buildings, the pool, the plants, everything. We did not expect it would be this amazing from pictures online, it really just represents my best imagination about Bali. Our room is next to the pool, very spacious, all facilities are clean and new, I like the half open bathroom with a big tub. As we arrive we got why it’s called hidden cottages, it a little bit off the main street but still in walking distance, and reception is in the ground floor, canteen and rooms and pool are in different layers down stairs, first enter felt surprisingly good. Staffs are all friendly and helpful.

We had a beautiful large room, beds were the best on our trip, very clean, view from balcony was amazing. Hotel is set in gorgeous gardens and lovely architecture. Pool and it's surrounding were lovely. Nice peaceful location, plenty of nice restaurants on the same street, located away from the hustle and bustle of Ubud. We particularly liked the chilled walk down the path to the hotel from the street particularly at night, full of nature sounds, birds, frogs and crickets perfect wind down.
