Dear all,
I am looking for the nicest hotel in or near Ubud that I can get for around $50US (or less) per night. Beautiful views would be a big plus. The things I am looking for are: very clean, quiet, nice gardens/grounds, a pool, really good breakfast, nice staff, easy accessibility to restaurants.
I have read a number of posting recommending the Tegal Sari. For those of you that know this hotel, do you think it is the best (or, at least, one of the best) options in this price range? Room 19 seems to be sought after -- I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me why this room is so special and, if this room isn't available, can you recommend any second or third choices? Is it possible to book through one of the discount hotel sites (if so, any recommendations?) or only directly through the hotel?
Are there any other hotels or guest houses in the area that you think are as good or even better?
Thanks very much!
