The hype
Travelers love the 'jungle vibes' and the pool, but almost everyone mentions the distance from town as a friction point.
The Westin Resort & Spa Ubud, Bali - Chse Certified
$180-280/ Nacht
Buchen Sie dieses Hotel, wenn You want the Westin 'Heavenly' standard in a jungle setting without the chaos (or walkability) of central Ubud.
Warum Gäste es lieben
- Infinity pool overlooking a lush jungle valley that feels miles away from everything
- Westin Family Kids Club is legitimately engaging, not just a holding pen
- Breakfast at Tabia offers a massive spread with healthy juices and a dedicated pho station
Kurzfassung: A polished, predictable sanctuary that feels a bit like a fortress—you're safe and comfortable, but you're definitely not 'in' Ubud.
Bewertet von @PretyLife: I checked into the Westin Ubud for a recharge and it didn't disappoint. My room was super spacious with the comfiest twin beds and a bathroom that felt like a private spa. If you need a reliable, polished escape in the jungle, this is it.

Vor der Buchung
Gut zu wissen
- Breakfast is not always included in the base rate—check your package carefully as it costs ~IDR 290k ($19) pp otherwise.
- The 'jungle view' is real, but so are the jungle bugs—keep your balcony doors closed at dusk.
- Traffic into Ubud center can be gridlocked; the 15-minute drive can easily turn into 40 minutes during ceremonies or rush hour.
Was Sie einpacken sollten
- Mosquito repellent (the hotel provides some, but bring your preferred brand)
- Swimsuits (plural—it takes a while to dry in the humidity)
- Ride-hailing apps (Grab and Gojek) downloaded and set up before arrival
Zimmer-Genie

Zimmerwunsch-Genie – kopieren & einfügen
“I would appreciate a room on a higher floor (Level 5+) facing the pool/jungle to minimize road noise. Please avoid rooms directly adjacent to the elevator bank.”
FAQ & Geheimtipps
Alles, was Sie vor der Buchung wirklich wissen möchten.
Is there a free shuttle to Ubud?
Yes, but it runs on a set schedule (check with concierge) and drops off near the Puri Lukisan Museum. It is not 24/7.
Can I walk to restaurants?
Technically yes, but practically no. The road is dangerous for pedestrians. There are a few local warungs nearby, but most guests take a car.
Is the pool heated?
No, but it gets plenty of sun and the Bali heat keeps it refreshing rather than cold.
Do the rooms have bathtubs?
Yes, most rooms feature a separate bathtub and rain shower, a standard Westin perk.
Is it good for kids?
Excellent. The Westin Family Kids Club is one of the better ones in the area, with a dedicated kids' pool.
How far is the Monkey Forest?
About a 10-15 minute drive depending on traffic. Do not attempt to walk it.
Insider-Tipps
- ✨
Walk 5 minutes down the road to 'Warung Makan Bahagia' for an incredible, authentic Nasi Campur for under $3.
- ✨
The 'Wellness Pavilion' by the river offers morning yoga that is often less crowded than the gym classes.
- ✨
Join the 'Run Westin' program if you want a guided, safe run through the local village—otherwise running on the main road is suicidal.
5 Dinge, die Sie wissen sollten, bevor Sie losfahren
💡The humidity in the valley means your swimsuit will never fully dry on the balcony.
💡The 'Garden View' rooms sometimes just view the landscaping near the driveway, not the vast jungle.
💡You can hear the river from the pool, but you can't easily access it for a swim.
💡Ride-share drivers (Grab/Gojek) are sometimes hesitant to pick up directly at the lobby due to local taxi politics; you might need to walk to the gate.
💡The open-air lobby is stunning but can get hot and buggy in the late afternoon.
