Reviews of Krisda Ubud Guest House

Great stay. Clean, comfy bed, good location

A little from outside the room. There were small children crying and screaming all day and into the evening.

A quiet gem set back from the hustle and bustle of Ubud in a lovely family setting. Garden and fountain make it very peaceful. The friendliest family run the accommodation

The owner, Kadet, is an incredible person, very caring, attentive to details and worried about their guests well-being. The rooms have a front porch that faces a peaceful lovely garden full of messages and with the best vibe. The place is quiet, with birds singing in the morning and at the same time it’s right behind the a main street full of restaurants, drugstore and attractions. Breakfast is very healthy and delicious and the room offers mineral water (natural and hot) and coffee and tea are available at all times. I must add that when I felt sick one day during my stay Kadet gave me all the assistance and attention, making me feel very safe. For lonely travelers like myself this is priceless.

Peaceful and authentic stay in the Ubud center We had a wonderful stay thanks to Riki’s and Kadek’s warm hospitality. The room was spotless, with a comfortable king-sized bed, great A/C, and a lovely terrace overlooking the garden. We appreciated the little touches like fresh fruit and biscuits in the mornings, plus the fridge, safe, and unlimited water refills. The location is perfect—right in the center of Ubud for walking to most places, yet on the edge of town to avoid heavy traffic when leaving by car. The guesthouse also offers a true Balinese atmosphere, with its temple, garden, and daily offerings, while still giving us plenty of privacy. Highly recommended!

Serene but central, lovely large private room. Location perfect as walk to everything. Kadek a beautiful person, very helpful. Aircon and shower the best. Thank you would definitely come back if we come to Ubud.

I had a fantastic stay at Krisda Guest House—it was everything I needed and more. The host, her son, and the whole family were absolutely lovely—friendly, genuine, and always happy to help. They answered all my questions and regularly stopped for a chat, which made me feel very welcome. Nothing was ever a problem, and they even brought me some snacks and a fresh coconut—a really thoughtful gesture. The room was spacious and included a well-equipped kitchen with everything I needed, including tea and coffee. There was also a large water tank for drinking water, which they refilled twice during my stay. I really appreciated this—not only was it convenient, but it was also much more environmentally friendly than using plastic bottles. Outside, there was a large porch with a sofa, chairs, and a table where I could sit, work, and enjoy views of the beautiful garden. The location was ideal. Although the guest house is quiet and peaceful, set in a lovely garden, it's just steps away from the main street of Ubud. Shops, restaurants, and everything else you might need are all within walking distance. It’s also very close to several beautiful nature walking trails, so if you enjoy walking or hiking, the location is perfect. If you're looking for a peaceful stay in the heart of Ubud, hosted by a kind local family, this is the place for you. Five stars—I’ll definitely be back.

The owners (mother and son) are both soooooo lovely, always smiling (bright future in front of you Ricky!) The room and bed are spacious and clean, bed is comfortable. There is a big fridge and a kettle/ tea cups in the room (highly appreciated!), airco works great. Location is very good (entrance from main road but property tucked away from the noise of the cars and scooters). Thick walls so you can't hear your neighbours (but you should always have your earplugs on you when travelling to Bali, just in case it..rains heavily at night, for example).

Everything was perfect

Location is good

The room was not clean and the bathroom smelled bad.

The family members who run this hotel is warm and kind.

The owner and their family were truly wonderful people. Staying here gives you peace of mind when visiting Ubud. I'm really glad I was able to spend time here before returning home. Although it's close to the center, it's very quiet and peaceful. I especially loved the relaxing time spent on the terrace, with the table and sofa. When I come to Ubud again, I definitely want to stay here.

No

If I could give this 1000+, I would! Kadek (added a lovely photo of her) and her family are the sweetest. Everything was fantastic, their place is like a home away from home- not just because their house is very lovely and clean, but because they really welcome you in their family. She was happy to share their every day life practices and the importance of them. I'm excited to come back here and share this beautiful family with any friends of mine coming to Ubud!

Leaving :(

The family is incredibly kind and accommodating. The room is spacious and has a water dispenser so you don't have to use bottles.

At first I was put off by the stair case from the street. However, they have a back door. If you have a lot of bags or don't want to walk the stairs, you can use the back door which takes you directly into the guest house area. Bali is all steep roads and stairs and so the back door to this guest house is a great thing.

I loved the hospitality, promptness in service and location, room and the place.

We would love a fan!

The location is great

The room, bed and bathroom smelt so musty. The bedding is brown and purple which seems suspicious and like it is to hide stains. There is only a bedcover provided with no top sheet, I very much doubt the bedcovers are cleaned in between each guest. I had to ask for a sheet and then also asked for the bed to be changed after sleeping there for one night and despite explaining the hygiene aspect of there being no sheet it was made the same and still smelt. On the first night I had to get out of bed at nearly midnight to tell the owner’s son and his friend to stop talking and laughing. They knew I was trying to sleep about ten metres away and it was so inconsiderate. There is no fridge in the room but you can use an absolutely disgusting communal fridge behind the reception, the door doesn’t even close properly. I did not feel at all comfortable as a solo traveller and left the next afternoon losing a night’s money but I just wanted out of the bad atmosphere the place has. There are much better places to stay for cheaper (look at the great place directly across the road). This homestay needs a good clean and to look after their guests better. I was very glad I chose to leave early and found much better cleaner and safer accommodation nearby.

Fantastic location

I had an amazing time there. The place is so cool and chill, perfect for resting. And the family is so welcoming that makes you feel at home. I would come back for sure :) thank you for everything

Everything was perfect

This place is beyond amazing! Look no further. The family is extremely helpful, always there to help and quick to answer to your requests. The garden Ali’s special an quiet, even though it is right in central Ubud close to everything.
