OK but the front villas are not worth it”

Great location and beautiful setting in front of rice field. Staff is very kind and food is good/ok. We paid extra to have the villa hoping we'll get a better view on the rice field but in fact the room of the villa does not have any view. You have to go on the rooftop which is not very comfortable to relax (also that area gets quite cold and rainy.). Better to get the simple rooms and ask to have the one on top with view.

Nice stay!”

Great hotel at the countryside area. Blackout happened for around 2 hours, it affected the whole area around there. Thus, we had our "candle dinner" in the restaurant, the hotel was still able to serve our dinner with no electricity. No air-conditioner and ceiling fan provided, only standing fan was provided in the room, but it didn't cause any problem as the surrounding temperature was cool enough. I like the way the hotel served the breakfast. Breakfast was prepared according to our orders, no buffet style.

Big comfort in the middle of nowhere, food could be better”

We are a coupe (M44, F38). We saw a few places in Bali (Ubud surroundings, Lovina, Tulamben, and the Rice Terraces region where Batukaru is located). Batukaru is by far the most isolated hotel we stayed at. It was kind of strange to be in this higher end hotel, in the middle of nowhere. The rooms are very spacious and highly comfortable. The view of the rice terraces in front of the hotel is pretty nice. The pool looks great, although it was quite cold (maybe due to the few downpoor of the past days). The food was ok in a meh sort of way, and slighty pricier than everywhere else. The temple a few minutes away by motorbike is very basic, and not much of a temple to see unfortuantely. However, the Rice Terrasses 25 minutes from there, our main reason of attending that property, was astonishingly beautiful. Know that the asphalt road that leads there looks like it came right out of a war zone as it is full of huge pot holes and rocks - a nightmare to drive in with a motorbike especially if you are two on the scooter. I am very confident as a rider on a scooter, but ended up turning back before reaching the rice terraces on our first attempt. That's how bad the road is. We ended up seeing them anyway thanks to the transport we hired from Batukaru to Lovina the next day (the driver took that route, and dropped us off for a 30 minute trek in the rice terraces, an amazing view!). Overall, Batukaru is not somewhere I would go back. It simply feels way to isolated. I would arrange to go see the Rice Terraces another way, without actually staying there for the night. But if you like to be completely isolated away from everything, and a little luxury is important to you, then perhaps this is a good place for you. Simply wasn't our cup of tea.

Good value, peaceful retreat”

My partner and I had a great stay at Batukaru Hotel. The staffs are very helpful and the meals were excellent for us as vegetarians. The location is very peaceful and feel like a retreat. The only downside (or could be a positive for some) is a very quite town, not much we can do as tourists to explore by ourselves. However, the hotel does organise trekking to rice fields and the mountain. Personally, we liked the rice fields in Batukaru much more then the touristic town of Jatiluwih. Batukaru shows the true and most beautiful side of central Bali. We will definitely like to visit the Batukaru hotel again!

Beautiful hotel & location but very remote”

The rooms and hotel is very nicely done! There is a restaurant on site but the food isn't very good. The hotel has rules about not brining outside food in and will charge you 50% of the value if they find out you did. Pretty harsh rules, they need a better chef if they are going to have rules like that. Hotel staff was helpful though especially the owners son who was there assisting during our visit. The only major downside about this place, beside the food, is the location. It is very far away from other things which makes doing activities a challenge. If you want to stay at the hotel and hang out at a beautiful location this is a great choice. As long as you're not picky about food.

breathtaking view, good room, nice pool”

Booked this hotel through Agoda and I will definitely come back again. view is excellent, food OK, swimming pool is superb looking at Mount batukaru.

clean rooms, caring stuff, good food and view”

Amazing place to stay ”

Great hotel to stay for a few days. The hotel is situated on the edge of Batukaru mountain and in de middle of rice fields. The view from our room was amazing, overlooking the rice fields. It is very close to Jatiluih. The room was nice and clean, and the food at the restaurant was good. Pool is nice too. They are working on getting some sun screens for the pool. Because the jungle begins right behind the hotel, there are some bugs.. but that is nature and part of the charm of this hotel. We would definitely stay here again

L'architecte a tout raté ”

Vous pourriez avoir vu sur les rizières... Et bien non, votre lit donne sur un mur ! C'est la salle de bain qui pourrait avoir cette vue mais forcément la semi ouverture ne permet pas de voir grand chose. Elle permet par contre aux fourmis d'envahir la chambre et aux grenouilles de vous tenir compagnie sous la douche. Infiltration d'eau, moustiquaire inopérante... Rien n'empêche d'y dormir mais pas top.

un beau sejour”

Bel hotel, au milieu des rizières”

Hôtel quasiment neuf, seul au milieu des rizières. Donc, calme et vue magnifique. Les chambres sont très confortables, manque peut être, un réfrigérateur. Jolie piscine, mais l'eau y est plutôt fraiche. Prévoir à l'avance les moyens de déplacements, sinon il n'y a que la solution, passer par l’hôtel. Possibilité d'une très jolie balade à partir de l’hôtel, dans un village à 1/4 h de marche. Ne pas rater, les rizières attenantes à se village. Les rizières de Jatiluwith, elles sont à 10mn en voiture.

Ehemals schickes Hotel in toller Lage”

Pro: Wunderschöne Lage über den Reisfeldern. Tolle Aussicht vom Pool. Ehemals schön designtes Zimmer.Nette Damen im Personal. Contra/ Ameisenstraße durch das Bad--> Sauberkeit lässt zu wünschen übrig !! Gaffende Junge Männer als Personal die nur rumsitzen, unfreundlicher Hotelchef!

Nettes Hotel mit Potenzial”

Das Hotel liegt inmitten von Reisterrassen und ist mit dem Auto nicht ganz einfach zu erreichen. Es bietet aber einen schönen Blick hinab ins Tal, entweder vom Balkon des Bungalows oder von der Poolterrasse aus. Das Klima ist etwas feuchter, daher sind die Bungalows etwas mitgenommen, jedoch ganz nett eingerichtet und auch das Bad ist relativ neu. Um das Hotel herum gibt es nichts, sodass man auf das Restaurant angewiesen ist. Preise sind in Ordnung und eigentlich war es auch geschmacklich ganz gut. Allerdings ggf. nicht ganz verträglich, denn am nächsten Morgen und den ganzen Tag über musste die Toilette zig mal aufgesucht werden. Das Personal war freundlich und zuvorkommend!

schöne Lage in der Nähe der Reisterrassen ”

Essen und Getränke (Bier) überteuert

Spazioso e confortevole”

L'albergo ha camere spaziose, con vasca da bagno, ed una bellissima vista sulle risaie. Punti negativi: non c'e` molto nelle vicinanze (salvo un tempio, che pero` e` molto bello) ed il cibo e` medio, con tipico lentissimo servizio Balinese.
