Komaneka at Monkey Forest

Absolutely, Soph! Here’s a glowing review you can share: --- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely fantastic stay at the Hotel Komaneka Monkey Forest. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The service throughout our stay was flawless, and every detail was taken care of with such care and professionalism. Our room was beautiful—immaculately clean, spacious, and full of charm. It truly felt like a luxurious retreat. We’re already looking forward to returning !

We had a large lovely suite in a quiet garden setting that opened right into one of Ubud's central streets. The best part of our stay, though, was the service. There were two or three members of the front desk staff, and one server in the dining room, Mang Aya, whose courtesy, service and warmth made it a pleasure to arrive each day.

We went many times to Komaneka : At Bisma and Monkey Forest. The service is fantastic and people so nice. You feel like home ! Room is big, clean, foreigner channels, fantastic surroundings... what asking else ? It's the best place to stay in Ubu. The location is also very convenient

It was my first time staying at Komaneka Monkey Forest, and the place was beautiful, with a rice field view right in front of the room. The room itself was very clean and extremely comfortable,it made me just want to stay in all day. The service was also very friendly and helpful. The front desk staff were especially helpful in explaining the hotel facilities and were very friendly. However, the parking space was quite small and limited. The lighting next to the restaurant was also very dim and could use better illumination. As for the food, to be honest, it could be improved. I ordered Tom Yum, but it only came with two prawns, and the soup had an overly strong sour taste. I also ordered the seafood laksa, but there was very little seafood in it,mostly tofu instead. Hopefully, the portioning can be improved in the future. The dessert, however, was not bad.

Located bang in the center of Ubud amidst lush paddy fields, we felt right at home. The welcome was great, the staff ever so cordial and always warm. The ambience instills calmness, there is greenery everywhere you turn that yo forget that you just entered from a bustling street, it is well shielded from the noise yet a stones throw away from all the major ubud attractions. The rooms were generous, a beautiful view of the paddy fields where we could spot some munias trying to pick at the grains and a great balcony with our very own koi pond which excited my kid to no end. In addition, the staff had provided a crib for my child as well, no complaints there at all. The pool was well-maintained, surroundings calm again. We had opted for breakfast in the hotel and that's the only thing that was disappointing. They had hardly any options for vegetarians or vegans. It was just 2 or 3, nothing that could fill you up sufficiently for the adventure ahead. This is tedious especially when you're staying for more than two days. We ate the same thing every morning which was either fruit bowl or fried rice, even the bread had eggs so we couldn't have the avo toast which otherwise could have been a good option for vegetarians (which doesn't include egg) or vegans. I'm surprised, considering that Ubud is steeped in Veganism they had very few options for us. This is something they need to look into and become more inclusive in their menu, especially with breakfasts since most opt for it. This is a great place to stay in if you want to be at walkable distance from the monkey forest, ubud palace, the market, some great restos etc., and if you are able to deal with the brekkie concern.
