Great Boutique hotel
I love Bali Ginger Suites. This is the third time I have stayed at this property. I normally like to move around and stay at different places, but this small boutique hotel is just lovely. The position is perfect, the staff are so friendly and the value for what you pay is really good. This time I stayed in the 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom private villa with our own pool. This villa is lovely, quite spacious and more than enough room for 2 couples to share. It is so lovely to be able to relax in your own private area. The pool is large enough to relax in, not quite do laps, but certainly big enough for 4 people to cool off in. An extensive breakfast was served each day to our villa, all ordered from an a la cart menu. The location is great, just a short walk to either Jl Drupadi, or JL Camplung Tanduk, it is literally 10 minutes from everywhere.

Fabulous coffee
We stayed twice at Bali Ginger Suites during our 2 week trip to Bali, at the beginning and end of our trip. We really loved the small boutique feel of this place. There were no children staying there which helped to keep it quiet. With only 10 rooms you get to know all of the staff. we stayed in a pool access room. The rooms are simply decorated, but very comfortable. My bed was really nice to sleep in, with lovely linen. The pool is small, but big enough to cool down in on a warm day. The breakfast is fairly limited, but they have an espresso machine and the coffee is really very good. The location is great, not far from anything. 5 min to Jl Legian, less than 10 min to the beach or Eat St. We really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to recommend it to others.

Hidden Gem
The villa is hidden and sometimes hard to find but it is located close to the beach, restaurants, and shops. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Any problems we had, the staff made sure we were pleased with the service. The room we had was spacious and clean. If you're not a fan of the wild life I suggest you get a room where the bathroom is not outdoors because you will have crawling visitors. Overall great stay!

Great staff
We stayed in the 2 bedroom villa, which they had set up nicely with 1 double and 2 twin beds. Staff at the villa are absolutely outstanding, they can't do enough to help you and remember your names, and always go out of their way to greet you and ask if you need anything. The plunge pool in the villa was nice, as was the separate bathrooms and the bug spray provided to spray your rooms with. The only thing i think they could improve on was that the beds were a bit hard and the pillows weren't great - if they could get some feather pillows it would have been 5 stars for everything!

Convenient location, with some drawbacks
Bali Ginger is very conveniently located right off a busy street in Seminyak. Very easy to run to a convenience store or catch a cab. I even got a creambath at a spa less than 5 minutes walk from here. However, on some nights the music from a nearby bar/nightclub can be a bit bothersome. Staff is very friendly and helpful, breakfast is good, and the Double Happiness suite was beautifully decorated and offered a lot of space and storage.

Response from Lou on 28 Aug 2017
Hi, thanks for taking time to write a review for us. I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the room that you booked. As you make the booking and see the photos of the room, you will find the photo of the balcony which is an enclosed-balcony with Balinese breeze blocks. The definition of balcony itself is a platform enclosed by a wall or balustrade on the outside of a building, with access from an upper-floor door. Which is exactly what we have. Whether it is open or closed, that kitchenette is on a balcony and we show this on the photos. The reason we built an enclosed-balcony instead of the fully open-balcony is for comfort and safety reason.

The perfect Seminyak hotel!
Bali Ginger Suites was our favorite hotel, room, breakfast and staff during our trip! We stayed in Ubud and South Kuta in nice places, but nothing compared to perfect location, food options, amazing room and warm, welcoming staff! Our room and outdoor and indoor areas! The bedroom was cool, great bed and TV, the shower was open air as was the kitchenette and front sitting area. Perfect to eat your complimentary banana pancakes or muesli and yummy coffee!

A nice quiet location
My friend and I stayed for a week and would recommend BGS. The rooms were clean, the service excellent and the location was really quiet. They've even sound proofed the rooms to make sleeping easy. It didn't matter that we were away from the center of town as it was easy (and cheap) to catch a cab. The beach and restaurants were within walking distance. Providing breakfast and free spring water was a big attraction for us as we didn't have to worry about bottled water every day or leave our accommodation to search for breakfast. They provided towels for the pool and the beach. The only down side for us was guests could smoke anywhere which diminished the enjoyment of lying by the pool for us non-smokers.

Oasis of calm
Very friendly and helpful staff. Swimming pool is very small but some rooms look out over the water and have nice terraces when you can have drinks and meals. Nice well-equipped little kitchens. The very commercial street with cafes and night clubs leading to the beach is just around the corner. But the hotel is wonderfully quiet

Relaxing Small Hotel
We really enjoyed our stay here. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff are very helpful and arranged tours and transfers quickly and efficiently. The pool was nice with day beds just outside our door. Breakfast is delivered to your room each day so you can sit and enjoy in your private dinning area. The hotel is close to many restaurants and not too far from the beach, which we walked to each day.

Lovely little apartments, quite close to the Main Street but a good 10-15 minute walk away from seminyak square (which in the heat isn't too great). Absolute 5** staff, attentive and always catering for your needs. Air con wasn't very cold, wifi signal wasn't strong in the rooms. But other than those minor aspects it was a perfect stay, with great staff and a nice atmosphere :)

Excellent choice in Seminyak
We stayed here for 2 nights and were very impressed overall. The room was clean and the air conditioning was already turned on when we arrived. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, special mention to Vita who assisted us with check out. We had a late evening flight home and despite checking out at 12pm, the hotel staff were happy to store our luggage and we were given use of another room at 5pm to have a shower and change our clothes before heading to the airport. Breakfast is a set menu of 4 choices and was quite good. Coffee was superb. Note that many taxi drivers have trouble finding this hotel so if arriving by taxi, make sure you can show them a map on your phone (if already at the hotel, grab a business card as it has a map on it). Location is convenient, many places are within walking distance or a metered taxi will take you anywhere in Seminyak for 30k rupiah. We would happily stay here again.

A Top Value Stay
It was a fantastic stay at Bali Ginger Suites! The room is simple but still beautiful. The bathroom with its outdoor shower was perfect. The bed was so comfortable. I had the poolside room, which was totally worth it. Eating breakfast beside the beautiful pool each morning was a terrific way to start the day. The room was always clean, plenty of water was provided which was fantastic. The breakfast was simple but good (the coffee was delicious!). The neighborhood was a little walk to everything, but not anything out of the way. The most important thing was that the staff was terrific though! They really made it all come together. A terrific value for a quiet place in Seminyak!

Tucked away a quiet ally behind eat street, rest assured to find peace a quiet at an affordable price in this busy tourist district. Bali Ginger Suites was a sanctuary for our weary, dusty legs after journeying from the Northwest part of Bali. We were so pleased upon arrival that our standard room was upgraded to the honeymoon suite with no extra charge! This made our last night's stay in Bali that much more special and memorable! Thank you Bali Ginger Suites for the special treatment. We'll be sure to stay with you again when in Seminyak!

Your review was a pleasure to read and I am so happy that you enjoyed our honeymoon suite. It is one of our re-purposed chinese houses at Bali Ginger Suites (the other is the Shikumen Villa, a 2 bedroom private villa with pool). They make for a unique stay as they are unlike any other property. Unusual and stylish, the honeymoon suite is perfect for a bit of seclusion, and the antique ceramic hip bath is fabulous.

Pleasant 3 days stay
It's only over a minute walk to the main road and quite near to the beach, very convenience. However if you were to go back late at night, it can be very dark, wont recommend if you were to travel alone. Wifi was a little weak, even with my prepaid card, the connection was weak too but not much of a problem for me. Last but not least, I would like to compliment a staff named 'Selamat' if I did not spell wrongly. He was friendly and helpful, making my stay a very pleasant one.

One night is not enough!
My son and I stayed here for a night on our way to Lombok from Bali, on the advice of a local friend. Room was comfy, pool was nice, coral-covered beach was all but unswimmable --though there are better beaches nearby. Food was surprisingly good for this small island, and staff was unerringly friendly, if not always efficient (it took three requests and over 30 minutes to get a cup of coffee at breakfast).

Newish hotel with large rooms and added kitchen. Overall the bed and cleanliness are all fine along with proximety to resto's and beach, is a short work. Many roosters and night clubs to keep you frmo a good nights sleep. If you in Bali to party then no problem. Seminyak beach is more like a rubbish tip and one could easily be upset in seeing the state of the area.
