Hotels in Denpasar
Posted: December 14th, 2009 | Category: Travel and LeisureDenpasar is the capital of Bali and is situated north of Nusa Dua. This city is not known as a major visitor attraction when visiting Bali. Being that it’s the capital, there are plenty of Denpasar hotels to choose from for all budgets. For many budget travels, the hotels in Denpasar are an ideal place to remain as there are masses of inexpensive hotels and accommodation to be found. The service you’ll receive will be wonderful, but the amenities will be very lacking. For the more discerning traveler there are magnificent places that you can stay at that offer five star facilities and services, but these are mostly occupied by business people traveling thru.
The lack of any beaches or other tropical scenery limits the Bali Hotels in Denpasar to what they are able to supply the holiday maker. Not having the beautiful blue ocean or lush rain forest as a view means that all of the hotels here may simply be able to provide views of the city. As much as the Balinese lifestyle is uniquely different and worth exploring, activities in Denpasar are limited and therefore the variety of accommodation is also limited. You won’t find any private villas with access to isolated beaches or be in a position to step out of a hotel in Denpasar onto a stunning white beach. If choosing to remain here in one of the luxurious Denpasar hotels and you want to experience all that Bali has to offer you are going to need to commute from the hotel to the location of your chosen activity.
All of the top rated hotels in Denpasar city will have access to whatever it is that you want to do on a Bali tour, it is just a matter of booking it with the reception desk and they will gladly organize everything for you, from transportation to any necessary equipment. These hotels will be able to offer you some Bali Holiday Packages that will include different activities.
Only the top Denpasar Hotels will have a site for you to book online and seeing as the city isn’t a popular tourist destination it is feasible to find accommodation throughout the year without booking in advance. The one time that you will find the hotels fully booked is if there’s a major meeting being held and then it may be tricky to find something. If you do intend to spend a night or two here and need to stay in a luxury apartment then it is certainly advisable to book early in advance. Backpackers and budget travels don’t have to worry as there’s always room at the inn somewhere in Denpasar.
Booking into one of the top Denpasar hotels, all of your rooms will be air conditioned and all room amenities working, but if going for a cheaper hotel it is best to inspect the room before paying for it to make sure the aircon works and the toilets are useable. The next thing that you need to be certain of is if you would like to have a hot bath or shower, ensure that these facilities are available. Coming from a developed country we immediately assume that hot water is available, not so in Bali or anywhere in Indonesia. You may have to order the tank to be switched on one or two hours before you wish to take a bath at some of the more budget Denpasar hotels.
