Hi Gwenda,
In the first place, I don't think DKP is 5 star. If it is 5 star, then it is quite simply the worst 5 star hotel I have EVER stayed in.
No exaggeration, no rancour. Just facts.
Considering Amari Atrium...Bangkok, Swiss Garden...KL Malaysia, Meritus Negara... Singapore, the DKP should have been priced at nothing more than 50US$ per night, including transfers, breakfast and some sightseeing thrown in.
For the price, DKP left a lot to be desired. I haven't stayed anywhere else in Bali and hence cannot comment. But, the DKP was not a touch on most other hotels I have stayed in, in other parts of Asia.
If I ever decide to visit Bali again (its very low on my priority list) I will definitely NOT STAY at the DKP. FOR SURE. I'd rather pay more and stay at some better hotel in Nusa Dua or Sanur or maybe even Ubud. But, right now, Central and Eastern Europe is my priority.
Regards,
Carlos.
