Das Eigentum — The Mansion
The Mansion is Ubud’s most extravagant five-star, a colonial-meets-Bali fantasy of carved stone, polished teak and infinity pools that seem to float above the Ayung River gorge. Standing in its cavernous lobby, you’re hit by frangipani-scented air and the low thrum of gamelan — it’s old-school grandeur with a spa-first ethos, best for couples or solo splurgers who want zero compromise on luxury and total privacy.
Chroniken von Ubud
Ubud began as a medicinal-plant village for the 8th-century Balinese kingdoms, then grew into a royal court centre under the Sukawati dynasty. By the 1930s, European artists like Walter Spies and Rudolf Bonnet turned it into a bohemian hub, founding the Pita Maha movement that fused local craft with modernist painting. Architecturally, the core still clings to the 19th-century palace layout: temple courtyards, thatched bale pavilions and narrow lanes lined with frangipani. Today it’s the island’s wellness and culture capital — yoga retreats sit beside rice terraces, and the town’s identity is a delicate balance of tourism and temple ritual.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Ubud-Guide →Die besten Monate
April (dry, lush, less crowded), June (peak-season lull before July surge), October (post-dry, green paddies, still quiet).
Peak / Festival Surge
July and August are the absolute peak: European summer holidays, Bali Arts Festival (June–July) and the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival (October has its own spike). Hotel rates at The Mansion triple to around £800/night; book by March or face sold-out signs.
Budget Schulter Saison
May and September are the sweet spots — tourists thin out, skies are mostly dry (May averages 100mm rain vs January’s 350mm), and room rates drop 30-40%. The weather is still warm enough for outside dining, but rice terraces are green not brown.
Wetter & Verpackung
Ubud sits at 300m elevation, so nights and early mornings are noticeably cooler than the coast — a light pashmina or jersey is essential. Pack a long-sleeve linen shirt for evenings; the mosquitoes come out fierce after dusk, and high-end restaurants enforce modest dress after 6pm.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Ubud
- Ubud’s main intersection (Jl. Monkey Forest – Jl. Raya Ubud) is being widened until late 2026; expect 20-minute traffic snarls on Saturday afternoons. Use side roads via Jl. Hanoman instead.
- The Gianyar Regency has banned single-use plastic bags at all markets from May 2026 — bring a reusable shopping tote for any street buys.
- Mount Agung’s alert remains at Level 2 (Waspada); the airport at Ngurah Rai is unaffected, but treks on the volcano’s upper slopes are prohibited.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to The Mansion, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the upper floors (2nd or 3rd) facing the inner garden or pool. These rooms are farthest from the street and get the best cross-breeze and natural light.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the lobby or restaurant, as foot traffic and dining noise can be intrusive. Also skip rooms facing Jalan Raya Ubud if the hotel fronts it — motorbikes start early here.
Best views
Rooms facing the inner garden or pool offer the best views of tropical greenery and maybe a glimpse of the Ayung river valley if the hotel is on the west side of town. Street-side rooms overlook rooftops or busy roads.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3. The building is low-rise, so top floor is quieter.
🔊 Noise notes
Ubud's main roads (Jalan Raya Ubud, Jalan Monkey Forest) have scooter traffic from 6am until late. The hotel might back onto a ravine or temple, which reduces noise. Check if the restaurant or bar is open to non-guests — that brings extra noise until 10pm.
Insider tips
1. Request a room away from the restaurant on the ground floor if you want to sleep past 7am — breakfast prep starts early. 2. Ask the front desk about the hotel's walking map to the Ubud Royal Palace and Monkey Forest; it'll save you getting lost on the back lanes.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Geld & Währung
Get a travel card →Indonesian Rupiah, IDR
Use authorised moneychangers in central Ubud (look for ones with good reviews and a glass display) and avoid the airport or tourist bureaux where rates are poor.
Visa and Mastercard accepted at most hotels and mid-range restaurants, but smaller warungs and markets are cash-only; contactless is rare.
Not expected, but rounding up the bill or leaving 5-10% in restaurants is appreciated; taxi drivers and hotel porters don't need a tip.
Essen, Einkaufen und Reisen auf einem Budget
Cheap car hire →Local kopi tubruk from a warung costs about 8,000-15,000 IDR.
Nasi campur from a simple warung costs roughly 20,000-35,000 IDR.
A main dish like mie goreng or nasi goreng at a local eatery runs 25,000-40,000 IDR.
Evening food stalls pop up along Jalan Dewi Sita and in the market area, serving satay, soto, and fresh fruit for under 20,000 IDR.
Coco Supermarket and Bintang Market are the budget supermarkets here, common for basics and drinks.
Ubud Art Market (Pasar Ubud) sells affordable sarongs, batik and cotton clothes; bargain hard for the best price.
The cheapest way around is walking or renting a scooter (about 60,000-80,000 IDR/day). From the airport, take the public bus (Perama or Kura-Kura) for 50,000-70,000 IDR each way.
Eat at warungs away from the main tourist strip for half price; haggle at markets but start at a third of the asking price; drink filtered refills at your hotel rather than buying bottled water.

Top-Attraktionen in Ubud
💡 Haggle firmly but politely – start at 30% of the asking price. Go at 8am before the tour buses arrive. Avoid the stuff sold near the palace, it's mass-produced.
💡 Pop in for 15 minutes between 9am and 5pm when the lotus flowers are open. No sarong needed – they lend them at the entrance for free.
💡 Start from the north end near the Ibah Hotel for a quieter stretch. The walk is about 2km round trip but you can extend onto dirt trails if you want more.
💡 Leave your sunglasses and loose items in your bag. Monkeys will snatch them. Go after 4pm when it's quieter and the light is softer for photos.
💡 Skip the busy main path – take the steep stairs down to the left of the waterfall for a quieter spot to swim. Go early on a weekday to avoid crowds. Bring swimsuit and towel.
