I just returned from a visit to Indonesia. One of the places our group stayed at was Cendana Resort in Ubud. While the ambience was wonderful and the place was both beautiful and relaxing, there were a few problems. For one, although the front desk told us to run the water for 10 minutes before we got hot water, I... more

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our four-night stay at Cendana. The property is very centrally located, but the property itself is set back far enough from Monkey Forest Road that you don't hear any of the traffic at all. The rice paddy is very restful, as are the fountains. We were in 602, which I highly recommend. Our block... more

This was our second trip to Ubud, we did not get Tepi Sawaha this time so Cendana was the second choice. The hotel and service is ok but not really up there. The car to pick us up was late but the hotel really apologised for it and did not charge us for it. The rooms are quite dark which... more

Have to say that this hotel was a great disappointment, as it was more expensive than any of the 3 other Ubud hotels we stayed in, and our room was dingy, dirty and in a sad state considering what it cost us. Don't know if we were unlucky with our basic room, but the hotel was full so we coud... more

Talk about bad first impressions! It started off when i approached the front desk for check-in. The person the desk was extremely rude and condescending!! He treated me like a vagrant who was likely to trash the room, even though I was on my honeymoon! Apart from that though, the rest of my stay there was fabulous. This has got... more

As I sit at my computer after returning from a week in Bali, I find myself wishing I were still at Cendana Resort in Ubud. I can't say enough about how wonderful my experience was from start to finish. Check-in was very simple. It happened to be raining when I arrived so the staff was ready with umbrellas to walk... more

We loved this hotel! We were picked up at the airport without incident - yes. The hotel has beautiful sculptures at the entrance with colorful plants and greenery, beautiful interior details, and lots of marble. We upgraded the room upon arrival, opting for a coffee maker, refrig, and HBO. After a visiting Jakarta, we were eager to start a long,... more

We stayed in Cendana this January (2008). It was what our travel agent recommended after our first choice - Tegal Sari, fell through as it was fully booked. In retrospect, it was for the best, as Cendana had all the atmosphere we wanted, plus a great big factor going for it...its location. Right on the main Monkey Forest road, but... more
