Novotel Bali Ngurah Rai Airport 4 stars

The Novotel has the edge being right at the airport thus avoiding the chaos that is Bali. It its a fairly standard airport hotel that is quite busy with people checking in and out at all times.It was well priced for the location. I had a little wait for check in but not bad considering the coming's and going. The front of house staff were well trained and charming. The room was similar to others in this type of hotel. Reasonable size with big bed and the usual amenities including kettle, safe, iron and so on. The bathroom had a clear glass wall on to the sleeping area which is intrusive even for someone staying alone and with a blind that can be pulled down didn't make it feel less so. That aside it was a nice modern bathroom with lots of hot water. I found the hotel surprisingly quiet for a transit facility. The pool area is lovely but the pool bar is closed up and full of piled up furniture. The bar had a good range of reasonably priced cocktails made with competence (if my margarita was typical). I had dinner in the restaurant which was eager to sell me their buffet. I only wanted something small and after being warned that a la carte would take 30-45 minutes my very ordinary club sandwich arrived in about 10. Overall, this is a good airport hotel and ideal for those with an early flight or resistant to heading into Bali's noise and traffic.

The location is hard to beat. Short walk from domestic airport and direct access to international. Rooms are big, have AC. The hotel itself looks old but maintained. The restaurant is good. The service is a bit rough around the edges. The stuff is friendly and helpful. I was dinning alone - ordered 2 glasses white wine which arrived at the same time ( so one ended up getting warm). Appetiser and main dish also appear simultaneously after 40 min. The good point is that the dishes were well-cooked and delicious.

This is a typical airport hotel. It is extremely convenient if you are catching a flight out of Denpasar. No need for a shuttle - it is an easy walk directly from the hotel lobby to the airport terminal. I will gladly stay here again.

We stayed after a late flight. Nice walk to the hotel, very close. The room was big and clean. The staff are very friendly and help. Enjoyed a nice breakfast in the morning. The restaurant is located in the foyer. Easy to get transport in the morning to our other hotel. The new pool is small but nice and clean.

Stayed here twice now on a late Friday night arrival from Perth before heading to an all inclusive. Works great. Walking distance (all inside) from international arrivals and you wake up to start your day with a swim and a great breakfast before heading on. Staff quickly put up an extra bed for our 12 yo.
