“Central location and extremely friendly and helpful staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed December 10, 2012

We stayed at the Elysian on our recent trip to Bali; staff were extremely friendly, accommodating and helpful. One staff member in particular, Ardi, went above and beyond to make our stay at the Elysian extra special, helping to arrange activities, transport and provide excellent local knowledge (restaurants, bars and shopping) and he always went out of his way to ask us about our day and what we had in store for the next few days.

“Amazing - 5 star plus!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 1, 2012

We are a family of 4 - 2 adults and 2 children aged 5 & 7. We stayed in the 2 bedroom pool villa. We have been to Bali quite a few times, and this villa is by far the best we've stayed in. This villa #27 has a 10 metre pool which we spent alot of our time in. Day bed by the pool was very nice with a cocktail or 2. Inside 2 massive bedrooms bath in each room, and lounge, dining and kitchen area all air conditioned - and we needed it going in November. Very hot. We stayed for 7 nights, and could have spent longer - we didn't want to leave. The staff were absolutely amazing and they all knew us by name. They will drop you anywhere in Seminyak as long as the driver is available. Bodyworks is just around the corner, so I went there everyday. You will not be disappointed if you choose this property. 10 minutes walk to Ku De Ta with the best cocktails and sunset in Bali. Enjoy every minute of this Villa because you deserve it.

Room Tip: There is only one 2 bedroom, so get in quick to secure this amazing Villa.

“Nice Villa with good service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012 via mobile

Stay there to spend our honeymoon time and we took Elysian Hideway Package... But somehow the Villa gave us more than the package.

The staffs were very nice, friendly and so helpful..... There's no "cant do" for them. Started when we arrived at the Villa before 2pm (check in time), they allowed us to check in 2.5 hours before (different treatment with our second Villa in Ubud, which asked us to wait for 1 hour at the lobby)

In terms of facility, i think more than enough.... Apple tv, ipod + ipod dock, free shuttle, etc....

Overall, i am happy to stay here.
Thank you Elysian.

“Chic Retreat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2012

Just returned from three days in Seminyak and a stay at the Elysian Hotel. What a fabulous hotel! I noted that they were a 2012 Trip Advisor favorite (there is a certificate on the library wall), and I can see why. First of all the service is without compare. By the end of our first day, all of the staff new us by name. Whenever we made inquiries, the staff made us feel our inquiries were the only concerns they had.
We were in Villa 18. As one enters the courtyard there is a private plunge pool whose temperature was always just right. Inside the villa, there is a livingroom/dining area with two window seat day beds, dining table, and wet bar. There is a separate bedroom and a fabulous sunken bathtub/shower in the bathroom. The aroma of fragrant verbena flowers greets you each day. The decor is contemporary. However, I did not find that the furnishings reminded me of Ikea furniture as one reviewer indicated.
The hotel does run guests into town three times a day (and more often if it is not busy). Guests can also check out a laptop, electricity converter and iPod for use during their stay. The television in the bedroom even has Apple tv. There are also laptops sitting out in the lobby and in the restaurant as well as a desktop in the library.
The restaurant has a wide variety of choices in food and drink such that anyone should be able to find something appropriate to eat. In the evenings, the pool cabanas are turned into private dining escapes where guests may have dinner by candlelight. We had reserved one for the hotel's lobster fest. Unfortunately, it was the on the same evening that we experienced the only rainfall of our trip. We were thus relegated to enjoying the delectable lobster dinner in the restaurant instead. There were many choices for the breakfast which was included and the amount of food even with the continental quite filling.
The spa was heavenly and the prices amazingly inexpensive. My daughter arranged a body scrub on the deck of our villa and loved it. My other traveling partner had a massage at the spa and said it was quite healing and relaxing. I highly recommend this hotel. It is hidden off a small alley- like road, yet this delightful little oasis should not be overlooked. I definitely would return! Thank you Elysian for a wonderful Thanksgiving break!
