overview
Bisma Eight Ubud is Michelin-recognised, awarded One Michelin Key as 'A Very Special Stay', and the design backs up the accolade: 38 spacious suites with parquet flooring, a traditional Japanese soaking tub, and an outdoor temperature-controlled pool, all a few minutes from central Ubud.
Twelve separate villas, about 500 metres from the main hotel, add one or two bedrooms, an open-air living space, a shaded garden and a private pool, with a kitchenette and wine fridge for in-villa meals. A 24-hour front desk covers both the hotel and villas. Condé Nast Traveler and the Telegraph UK have both named it among Bali's best hotels, recognition that reflects in the room design and unusually attentive service.

our review
One Michelin Key, awarded as a Very Special Stay, and the rooms back it up. Thirty-eight suites with parquet floors and a Japanese soaking tub in each, plus a temperature-controlled outdoor pool, a few minutes from central Ubud.
Twelve villas sit about 500 metres from the main hotel with one or two bedrooms, an open-air living space, a private pool, a kitchenette and a wine fridge. A 9.3 from more than 1,500 guests is unusually consistent for a property this design-led, which is often where scores wobble. The catch is scale: 38 suites means no resort facilities, no kids club, no sprawling grounds. If that is what you are after, this is the wrong kind of hotel. If you want the best-designed room in Ubud, we would start here.
