Entry is via an ornate traditional Balinese entrance gate, and it’s a promise of what’s to come as you wander past the family temple and pavilions to the capacious, but simple classically styled rooms. Tiled air-con interiors are furnished with quality, solid and comfy furniture and despite the vastness of the rooms they feel cosy and homely. Facilities include TVs and DVD players, minibar, a safe, a kettle and free WiFi. Large hot-water bathrooms provide tubs, and adequate bench space but some are a little worn and could do with a scrub in the corners.
Standard rooms offer garden views and Deluxe rooms are larger and face the jungle and swimming pool. Studio rooms provide a separate living room, large enough for an extra bed or two — a great choice for families. The ornate wooden Joglo studio is particularly good. Quieter rooms at the bottom opening to the pool are our pick, but the upshot is, there a lot more stairs to climb.
An a-la-carte included breakfast is served in Pondok Pundi’s streetside restaurant. Staff are friendly and professional. Pondok Pundi is a solid midrange choice offering all mod-cons with an excellent central location. A quick check online offered better deals than the walk-in prices, so check first. If Jalan Monkey Forest is too busy for you, it’s worth considering Artini 2 Cottages, a slightly less expensive midrange option in a fabulous garden setting on Jalan Hanoman, owned by the same family.
