Ananta Legian

We booked here as a start to our Bali family holiday because it was within our budget and it had a rooftop bar. The website shows this bar online in its pictures, some trip advisor reviews mentioned it and when you drive up to the front of the hotel there are big posters promoting happy hour at the rooftop bar.

Only thing is there isn’t a roof top bar, not anymore the space isn’t even under renovation there is no bar just a padlocked area of nothing this bar has been closed for sometime.

To mislead people by promoting and taking your money and your booking without mentioning that the roof top bar is no more, is damn right misleading and DISHONEST!

That’s why I give Ananta one star along with the fact that the Doof Doof music around the pool can be heard from the 6th floor.

Now NO ONE was ever around the pool and on numerous occasions I requested the bar staff turn down the music.

I’m on holidays I’m not at a RAVE Party. They would turn it down and within half an hour slowly turn it up again. I would ask them please turn it DOWN.

I was either the only guest at the pool or I had my daughter with me. This loud pool music is probably the reason why the pool is always so deserted.

This is a 2 and a half maybe a 3 star hotel it’s definitely not a four star. The hotel is clean, rooms are dated but clean and the air con works well. Wifi is intermittent pretty tragic and very slow. Our Toilets broke down every other day but were fixed quickly and the shower water does smell bad like rotten eggs awful and is a bit salty tasting. Key cards for both of us stopped working but were quickly replaced. The beds are king size and comfortable with good big pillows. All very clean.

Breakfast was included in the Tarif it was okay however the staff, all of the staff were amazing.

Pool area was average with a swim up bar. However we would of spent all day drinking cocktails and relaxing there if it wasn’t for the loud music and the fact the drinks we wanted could NOT be made because they had no rum, no Bacardi, all we wanted was a Bacardi and coke they had no Bacardi, so we went somewhere else to spend our money.

The fine dining mentioned on the web site is joke we ate dinner there once, we were the only people in the place the food was well below par.

Very disappointing to be ripped off in this way, no compensation was offered all staff said on the occasions we brought it up was that the rooftop bar was closed and would not be opening.

I was expecting to start our family once a year holiday watching the sunset on ananta’s rooftop bar sipping cocktails, that’s why we booked it. We were all so disappointed.

Instead we had Doof Doof music around a concrete pool area. As I write this from the 6th floor I can here the pool music pumping out loudly looking out my window and guess what there is NO ONE at the damn pool.

I give Ananta one star we would never ever ever come back! Even though the staff are lovely and the hotel is clean, tired but pretty but NOTHING like the beauty of its web site photos and reasonably priced! Never again!

This was my 3rd visit to this hotel, but this time I had injured my knee just before traveling. I was delighted to see a gentle ramp leading into the hotel, and to find I could get to the elevator, dining area, etc without a single stair. The hotel is stunning architecturally, with broad white steps leading into the interior pool, restaurant, and fountains courtyard, but the elevator swiftly got me where I wanted to go. The hotel staff is amazing, the rooms spotless, and the view from the rooftop delightful.
