This is the best amenity kit I ve ever come across. If I d forgotten to take along with me my entire


And I don t know about you, but my heart skips an extra beat when I stay at a hotel in Asia. For one, Asia feels like home to me, and two, there s something about Asian (specifically Southeast Asia) hospitality that s extra warm and accommodating.
Many hotels offer airport pick-ups and drop-offs. But this is the first time I ve encountered a pick-up service that began with an airport staff escorting me through visa and immigration, who then endorsed me to the actual hotel pick-up,  a driver and a staff from the front desk. The hotel s pick-up vehicles are a very comfortable and practical SUV car. (This is their VIP Fast track service that is available on request.)
Armed with a portable scanner, Trisna, name your own price airline ticket the lady from front desk who picked me up, explained that this is to ensure a smooth arrival as possible at the hotel. Just as I thought that room check-ins were amazing, this car check-in process has topped it all.
Trisna accompanied me to my room (Room number 220), an Ocean Facing Leisure Suite. name your own price airline ticket Waiting name your own price airline ticket by the door as we arrived was Budi, whom Trisna introduced as my butler. Budi gave me the most refreshing welcome drink (cucumber with mint and pineapple) that absolutely name your own price airline ticket gave my senses a good wake up (it was after all, almost 0130 AM Australia time when I arrived).
There is a working desk behind the king-sized bed. I m happy to report that this room does not lack in power outlets at all. There are 3 just in the bed alone (2 on each side plus the 3rd behind) and others can be found in strategic places throughout the room.
This is the best amenity kit I ve ever come across. If I d forgotten to take along with me my entire toiletry bag, I m sure I would have survived. ( and I m not described as low-maintenance when it comes to toiletries and the like)
The suite has a private balcony which gives a view of the pool and ocean. I love the privacy of the balconies. The suites are not built evenly (some protrude more, and some are spaced out really widely) so there is no awkward neighborly peek especially when you want to spend quite sometime in the balcony to enjoy the view.
The hotel is beach front property and it s a nice to take a stroll along Double Beach. The beach may not be my type (as I don t surf) but it s nice to walk along the endless stretch of beach, and keeping my eyes peeled for surfing lesson stands such as this:
The standard of service at the Double Six Hotel Seminyak is definitely one of the best in Asian standards. All friendly and polite without being obtrusive. The butler service is 24 hours, and Budi (my assigned butler) advised me that they offer a packing and unpacking name your own price airline ticket service, but I didn t feel the need to take it on as I only packed for 2 nights.
The property is also sprawling and there s always staff on standby to assist and enquire if they may be of help to you. On my first afternoon I asked where the hotel spa was, and not only was I given clear instructions, I was also escorted to the spa. And 4 hours later, when I ran into the same staff who escorted me, I was even asked how my treatment was. It s these touches of going the extra little mile that make the service really unforgettable.
The hotel is still in it s soft opening stage (official opening in August) , and most of the staff I interacted with began with profusely apologising for any noise or disturbance that I may hear or encounter. The only noise I ever heard was during the Spa treatment but that is to be overlooked as I was already having a relaxing time, and the noise was very faint.
The hotel has an amazing restaurant, Seminyak Italian Food. Even if you are not staying name your own price airline ticket at the Double-Six, I highly suggest you book a table. Pasta is made from scratch everyday name your own price airline ticket (they have a pasta room!) and seafood was especially fresh.
Example during breakfast on my first morning, all outdoor tables were taken so I had a seat indoors. As I was studying the menu, I just casually scratched my leg (not knowing what it was), and a staff immediately came up to me and asked are you being bitten by mosquitoes?
Double Six Hotel delivers luxury in both the property (and amenities)  and service. I m amazed that at the stage the hotel is in when I visited, it s only on its soft opening. The service is definitely the factor that sticks to me the most. This is my first visit to Bali, and my first hotel in Bali. It has set my Bali standards quite high for future visits.
All staff seem to be very experienced and highly name your own price airline ticket trained in customer service. It s the warmth of their personalities (genuinely friendly and not just a spiel) that I remember with fondness to this day.

Hi Lorraine! Yes I definitely loved the fast track VIP service at the airport, which also happened on departure. Nothing likw skipping queues the car check in was absolutely a novel idea especially on late night arrivals
Holy Moly I have never ever ever heard of a car check in before; that s definitely name your own price airline ticket a unique selling point and great if you land at some ungodly hour! That bathroom is a killer, talk about thinking of everything; a couch should be a requirement name your own price airline ticket in every bathroom. Love this place so much! xx
Hi Paul! Thanks for the visit and recommendation. I wasn t able to venture out of Seminyak as this trip was really short. I will have to return to Bali one day for a longer time and will look at your recommendation name your own price airline ticket , and most definitely try Balinese cuisine
It wasn t a hotel, but that cruise I mentioned on another post, the customer service totally blew me away, there was like 1000 people on the ship and the staff knew pretty much everyone by name, they remembered what drinks you drank and when you wanted to drink it too. And don t even get me started on the food, the Chefs would whip up food that wasn t even on the menu. Gah it was the best!
