ibis Bali Kuta

Downtown Kuta

77

Guest sentiment

A 156-room budget ibis on Jalan Raya Kuta, five minutes from the airport with a free shuttle to Kuta Beach and shops, restaurants and pharmacies right outside.

Last updated August 10, 2026

ibis Bali Kuta sits on Jalan Raya Kuta in the heart of downtown Kuta, about five minutes from Ngurah Rai International Airport, with a convenience store, restaurants and pharmacies immediately outside and a free shuttle covering the roughly 30-minute walk to Kuta Beach. The 156-room property has won recognition for weaving traditional Balinese pattern motifs into its contemporary interior design. Guest sentiment is mixed for a budget hotel: the central location and warm, welcoming staff draw consistent praise, but cleanliness complaints -- elevator smells, lobby and hallway upkeep -- and street noise from the busy main road are recurring watchouts.
