“Nice find in Seminyak”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 5, 2012

We stayed at the Sense Hotel over an extended weekend. The hotel has just opened a few months and facilities are still new. Some thoughts:

Pros

Location
- near many restaurants, spas and fashion boutiques
- walking distance to a peaceful stretch of the beach
- not too much traffic or other noise from the road where the hotel is located

Hotel
- hotel facilities are very new
- helpful and friendly staff
- hotel rate is affordable for the area, especially with the promotions
- common area in the hotel is not overcrowded with other guests, you won't have trouble finding a seat at the lobby/pool/restaurant
- free shuttle service on demand (subject to availability)

Cons
- difficult for taxi drivers to find the place, hotel doesn't seem very well-known among locals and the map on the website doesn't help much
- some distance to the CircleK convenience store
- street gets very quiet and dark at night, most shops are closed after 10pm
- miss out on the 'villa experience'
- no drinking water at breakfast area (just nit-picking here)

If you are looking for a place with great value, are not thinking of spending a lot of time in the premise and rather laze out at the spa/clubs/beach or excursions around the island, Sense Hotel is a worthy option. Overall positive experience.

“Taste of Bali Heaven”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2012

2nd day here and I loooooooooooooooove the staff, the food should be 5star rated, the ambiance, the rooms, the pool. I don't wanna leave. Shopping, dining, tours are all nearby. It's a honey mooners paradise though I've seen small families and I'm here with two girlfriends. It's so quaint and relaxing. The sound of the waterfall at the pool. So many things I can say. The price is unbelievable, likely because its newly opened so if you're headed to Bali, you won't be disappointed with this place. I forgot to mention the on site pool view spa rooms and hotel shuttle that will take you within the area and offers free airport pickup. Perfection.

“Excellent location, brand new boutique hotel.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012 via mobile

We were walking back from a spa treatment a Bodyworks and noticed this lovely hotel only 100m up the road. We hadn't booked our last two nights in Bali and thought we'd take a risk and try somewhere new!
We were so impressed by this small boutique hotel! Breakfast is included and they make any breakfast you like on order. You can sit by the central pool and eat also :)
Our room was in the West wing on the top / 5th floor. I would definitely recommend the west wing for ocean views all the way from legian to seminyak. Great for a sunset viewing also!
The room was very clean and modern, as the hotel only officially opened in August. Housekeeping were extremely efficient and two of the managers wanted to know every small maintenance item they can improve on in the future.
We also loved being able to walk to potato head for our last night in Bali!
We wished we found this place earlier as it's exactly what we wanted for a pamper and shop in seminyak.
We will definitely stay here every time we come to Bali and would recommend it to all our friends who want to embrace the real treasures of seminyak.

“Fantastic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 20, 2012

We are regular visitors to Bali, and often stay in Seminyak. This was our first stay at the Sense Hotel, me and my husband just want to say thank you, thank you and thank you!!!! . We received a hello from every staff member as we past, this is a simple act that you all do so well. Rooms were clean, spacious and presented well. Broadband internet is provided free (which is a bonus)
staff and service at Sense were fantastic, especially any who spoke really good English. nothing was to much trouble.....we will be back again. We had a fabulous time at Sense. If asked "would i recommend it"? I would say "definitely". Keep up the great work and we will see you again next year. Boris and Maria Vega

“Great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

I stayed at The Sense Hotel for 7 nights and the location is fab, just up from Grocer & Grind and before Bodyworks Spa and tucked in behind Seminyak Square. The staff were so helpful and very friendly. The housekeeping and room were kept extremely clean. Pool area nice and it gets the sun around 10-2ish, otherwise it's a short stroll to the beach. The asian breakfasts were yummy. My only complaint was that the bathroom was small. The shower is large but when you open the bathroom door it hits the toilet. I did go and look at the bigger rooms though and this is not the case in those bathrooms.
