On arriving we had a flooded floor from the air con unit.
Offered us another room smelling of cigarette smoke and mold could even see the mold on the sheer curtains.

Cleaned up original room and we finally got into that one gone 7pm

Towels are old and smell like a wet dog
Bed has loads of little ants/midges all over it. Sheets had stains also old along with pillow musty and stained.

TV reception fuzzy
Internet super slow certainly not good if you need to work
Shower vents moldy
Air con unit not clean has mold and mildew so room is damp and smells
Balcony doors don’t slide
Breakfast buffet doesn’t offer tea bags on the counter just weak pre made tea. No coffee machine need to ask for proper coffee and tea.
Can’t put a credit card down as a deposit to order to your room need minimum $200 cash
Pool is quite shaded so fairly cold all the time

Food was nice by the pool
Basic toiletries
Body wash/shampoo/conditioner/ shower cap / toothbrush
Bingo by the pool each afternoon was fun

Hotel needs a good scrub and upgrade/repairs as it use to be quite nice but it’s been let go.

Doors banging in the hallways at all hours and being on the beach fireworks going off all ours. Not to forget the rave that started at 6am for a fun run just outside the hotel with music normally played in a nightclub at 10pm… so location not great for on going noise either.

Location close to waterbom park
No beach access from the hotel need to go out the front and walk around.

Unless they clean it up and do some upgrades even to linen and towels not somewhere I would stay again. Much better places around how this gets high ratings on trip advisor I don’t know.

The Kuta Paradiso Hotel in Bali, Indonesia is NOT a five-star hotel. The hotel is dated and sadly it is more like a three-star hotel.

In its heyday, the Kuta Paradiso may have earned its five stars, but that was over 20 years ago.

The hotel room is dark. There needs to be more overhead and floor lighting. The bathroom is spacious and clean. However, the shower drain needs to be unclogged. There is barely any artwork on the walls and the rooms look tired.

There was very loud music playing all night behind the hotel and I could not sleep.

What bothered me most is that there were NO electric outlets in the bedroom, bathroom, or living room. The only electric outlet was in the entryway, which is at least 30 meters from the bedroom.

I had to use an extension cord from the hotel just to charge my devices (see photos)..

When I checked out of the hotel, the staff asked me to stay while housekeeping checked my room in case I left items behind. In sum, I do not recommend the Kuta Paradiso Hotel.

In spite of everything, the hotel is an excellent location for tourists, close to numerous restaurants, shopping, and entertainment.
