Bottom Line

The favehotel Sunset Seminyak is a value hotel located along the far north end of the bustling Sunset Road highway. It's a 10-minute walk from Seminyak's Eat Street, and less than a 15-minute drive to Seminyak Beach. Features include a large pool with a swim-up bar, meeting rooms, a spa, and Lime Cafe. The 100 bright rooms are simple and bathrooms are compact, though the units have contemporary style and feature air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and safes. Light sleepers may want to look elsewhere, as traffic noise can be heard from most rooms. For those who prefer to stay downtown, Grandmas Seminyak Hotel is located near the action and only a five-minute walk from the beach, but the rooms and pool there are small.

Scene

A budget hotel featuring a large pool and contemporary semi open-air common spaces

The favehotel Sunset Seminyak is a budget oriented hotel which features modern, semi open-air common areas with bright and colorful decor. Centered in the property is a large pool with a kids' pool section, and a swim-up bar. The pool is surrounded by a large wooden deck lined with a few lounge chairs. There is limited greenery surrounding the pool, with only a couple of frangipani trees and some sparse tropical plants. The pool area is shaded by the hotel building. Adjoining the pool is the Lime Cafe, used mainly during breakfast hours. The decor in the restaurant features a bright lime green and hot pink color scheme. Most guests use the hotel as an affordable base to explore Seminyak from, so during the day the hotel is often empty and quiet.

Location

Located along the bustling Sunset Road highway; a 10-minute walk from Seminyak's Eat Street

The hotel is located in an easy to find location along the northern section of Sunset Road, one of Bali's main highways. Downtown Seminyak is just a short walk away. The heavy traffic and poorly maintained roads make walking into town slightly difficult, so many guests opt to take taxis to and from the hotel. The hotel has its own convenience store, but for more than just the essentials, Sunset Point Shopping Center is less than a five-minute walk away and contains a grocery store, fast food restaurants, ATMs, and a money changer. There are also a few restaurants directly across the street from the hotel, like Warung Babi Guling Pak Malen -- a popular local restaurant serving roasted suckling pig, a traditional Balinese speciality.

Seminyak's Eat Street (or Laksmana Street) is a 10-minute walk from the hotel and features a huge selection of dining options, boutique shops, and a sophisticated nightlife scene. The long white-sand Seminyak Beach is located less than a 15-minute drive away. The waves break over a soft sand bottom, and are well suited to novice surfers. Plenty of beach vendors offer board rentals and surf lessons along the beach. This stretch of coast features some popular sunset venues, including the laidback, boho chic style at La Plancha Beach Bar, and Chez Gado Gado, a well established fine dining restaurant. Both restaurants feature unobstructed ocean views and beachside seating.

Rooms

Simple and functional modern rooms featuring bright interiors plus air-conditioning and flat-screen TVs

The rooms at the favehotel Sunset Seminyak are contemporary, bright, and mostly well maintained. All room types have similar layouts and decor, though higher category rooms have more space and features. Rooms feature large windows that let in plenty of natural light and airflow. Interiors have clean modern stylings with plain white walls, dark gray curtains, and sleek dark brown wood veneer trim and furniture. The plain white walls are contrasted by large bright pink colored photographs behind the beds, which match the throw pillows. Rooms range from 72 to 85 square feet (22- to 26 square meters). Amenities include air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs with cable channels, work desks and chairs, safes, free Wi-Fi, and free mineral water. Though only Deluxe Rooms are equipped with coffee- and tea-making facilities and mini-fridges. Deluxe Rooms also feature comfy upholstered couches. The Family Rooms contain one double bed and one single bed. Rooms only have minimal storage space, with just one tiny shelf to store luggage on and a small hanging rack above. Bathrooms are cramped, though well maintained and feature vanities with large mirrors, soap dispensers, and glass shower stalls. Light sleepers should request rooms in the back part of the hotel, furthest from the road, as the traffic noise can be a problem.

Features

A pool with a swim-up bar, Lime Cafe, a spa, meeting rooms, and a convenience store

The hotel's facilities are fairly simple, though nice for a hotel in this price range. A large pool with a kids' section sits in the center of the property. The pool is adjoined by a swim-up bar and is surrounded by a large wooden deck lined with lounge chairs. Lime Cafe and Bar adjoins the pool area, and although it is mainly used as a breakfast restaurant, lunch and dinner are also served. Breakfast is served in a buffet format, with a decent selection of both Asian and Western dishes. Most room rates aren't inclusive of breakfast, which adds an additional cost. The hotel also features a small modern spa, though it's fairly basic and only contains a couple of small treatment rooms. Other facilities include two spacious meeting rooms, plus a Circle K convenience store. On-site parking is available and Wi-Fi is free throughout.
