Ubud isn't the quaint village it once was, but the Anumana Ubud Hotel embraces new modern stance with style. This four-pearl boutique property is a contemporary Balinese gem with a stunning lagoon pool and hopping restaurant that's a three-minute walk from the Sacred Monkey Forest. The 38 rooms are sleek and stylish, with features including air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, and minibars. Wood furniture, attractive art, and a minimalist look make them an attractive option, and some rooms have rice-field views from balconies or plunge pools. As of 2017 the hotel is building a rooftop spa, and there's space for yoga as well. Daytime noise is about the only issue here. For something equally stylish that's a bit closer to Ubud's main drag, check out KajaNe Mua Private Villa & Mansion instead, where rates are often similar.

The SenS Hotel & Spa is a modern, Western-style hotel that's a 10-minute walk from Ubud's city center. The 97 bright and modern rooms include minibars, air-conditioning, free Wi-Fi, and flat-screen TVs. Unfortunately, noise can carry throughout the hotel and the glass-walled bathroom setup isn't the most private. The hotel has a restaurant that serves all meals, including afternoon tea, and there's a small spa and workout room. The small courtyard pool is best for a splash and doesn't get much sun. Attractive events spaces draw more than a few business groups as well. For travelers who don't mind being a little farther outside the town center, the Anumana Ubud Hotel is a good alternative. It has chic rooms, a buzzing restaurant, and a nicer pool.

The 80-room Pertiwi Resort & Spa is a basic mid-range property located between the Monkey Forest and the heart of the action in Ubud. The sprawling grounds are beautiful and serene, with two pretty infinity pools and a modest but intimate spa tucked away amid frangipani and palm trees. Guest rooms, though, are hit or miss -- some are spacious, comfortable, and in good shape, while others are poorly maintained and run down, with mildew in bathrooms, broken air-conditioning units, and worn furniture. The restaurant serves an average a la carte breakfast (not included in all rates), as well as Asian cuisine in a simple dining room with sidewalk seating. There's also an upstairs lounge that has a few comfortable couches for evening drinks. Travelers looking for better value in this price range may wish to consider Agung Raka Resort & Villas.
