Senggigi Beach is a lovely hotel in the centre of Senggigi with beautiful grounds, right on the beach. Good food and restaurants although its often better to eat out as that is much cheaper. Nice rooms, wooden floors, great staff - its of a high standard and that is reflected in the price. You can often achieve $50 - $60 room here on the web.
Holiday Inn is about 5 kilometers out of Senggigi and is also a very nice, but a quieter hotel. Transport is no problem into town and is cheap by taxi.
For me Senggigi Beach. Enjoy wonderful Lombok - don't lock yourself away in the hotel - get out and about and meet the locals - they are an exceptional people. If you stay in Senggigi Beach walk and sit under the shade trees on the beach to the right of the hotel - you will meet lotsa locals and have a great time.
