The popular Ramayana Hotel and Spa is located on the busy Jalan Bakung Sari across the street from Kuta Square shopping street on one side and Jalan Kartika Plaza on the other side.
This is the area where you find the many boutiques, surf stores, coffee bars and the Matahari Department Store.
Entrance to the Ramayana hotel in Kuta
The Waterbom Park, Kuta Slingshot and Deejay Nightclub are not far away either, so are numerous restaurants and bars in the Discovery Mall.
Unfortunately the resort lacks a view on the ocean and it isn’t made out of bungalows solely like some of the other resorts I’ve been to.
What the hotel lacks in view or bungalows it makes up with their wide range of facilities and their choice of rooms.
Swimming pool with popular cottages in the back
But you don’t have to go far since Bali Kuta beach with its beautiful orange/purple sunset is only a 5/10 minutes stroll from the Ramayana.
The Ramayana Hotel is a not too big complex made out of 2 swimming pools, spa, guest rooms, ATM machines, mini-mart, Nike shop, Guardian Drug Store, Levi’s store, a famous sport’s bar, the H.I.S. tourist information center and several restaurants.
The hotel has a stylish, good restaurant called the Gabah restaurant and is one of the popular restaurants in this area of Kuta. The Gabah restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner.

It is also a great location to have a good glass of wine or tropical cocktail next to the pool.

If you don’t like to visit the Gabah restaurant three times a day there’s always a choice of Japanese in the Blue Fin Restaurant around the corner or the Asian Spice Restaurant at the end of the main building that serves various dishes from the major Asian cuisines.
Besides having dinner in these three restaurants you can also meet new people in the Stadium Cafe where they have live broadcast of the world’s most famous sports.
The resort is divided into six types of Bali accommodations: Superior rooms, Deluxe rooms, Poolside Cottages, Executive Deluxe Rooms, Family Rooms and Resort Club Rooms.
Not surprisingly the poolside cottages are the most popular one with a great view on the orchid garden and the pool.

The Executive Deluxe Rooms and Resort Club Rooms are located in the main building and specially designed for companies who schedule their meetings in a good resort while enjoying everything that crazy Kuta has to offer.

If you love shopping, partying and being in the heart of all the action then the mid-range Ramayana Hotel is ideal for you with its range of facilities.
I would recommend staying at the Poolside Cottages which are around $111 USD per night incl. 21% tax and service and breakfast.
It also incl. a 30-minute traditional welcome massage for 2, welcome flowers and fruit basket upon arrival and complimentary afternoon tea/coffee with snacks at the hotel's club lounge.
Pro's: location, facilities
Con's: small pools, not enough sun loungers, noisy, average rooms
