We had the most beautiful stay here! We stayed for 3 nights & most importantly before we did the Mt Batur hike. 30mins away from trail start. Hotel staff greeted us with a welcome drink which was so beautiful. We were so well looked after. They also helped us arrange transport for our day trips to Ubud (1 hour away), Mt Batur & helped arrange local laundry. We availed of the spa & had a couple massage which was beautiful. We got afternoon coffee and a snack which was a complimentary service. The room and views are breathtaking. We woke for the Dawn chorus at 5:30am.. the sounds are blissful. We ate here each night - food and drink were delicious. A perfect place to stay in the very quiet part of Bali - a perfect place if that’s what you need in between a busy travel time.

Nothing at all. Bar & restaurant finish around 8pm as it is a quiet place unlike the rest of Bali so just keep this in mind.

Staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. Grounds well kept and loved the overall wooden style of the rooms and the main buildings. Food at the Tree Top restaurant was delicious with a good variety on the menu. Nice touches by the hotel, like providing a welcome drink, giving the guests a thorough introduction to the hotel by the staff, offering a "hot bag" before bed (goodness knows why, especially with a massively thick doona on the bed), and placing a few free items in the minibar.

Wish they had a little outdoor pool instead of a fish pond, but this is just nit picking. Most of the locals think it's freezing when it's 27 deg in the middle of the day, but I certainly didn't.

Very nice hotel despite being located in not so beautiful town of Kintamani! The staff was extremely helpful. Food was nice although not an abundance of choice. Also Kintamani is much higher up and hence colder than most of Bali. We were not fully prepared for this but hotel staff lent us blankets to take with us to see the sunset early in the morning.

Massage in the spa facilities was very good - however treatments rooms are only separated by a curtain which made it hard to relax while hearing other people talk loudly and kids screaming. Bear in mind: the hotel is located on the hill with rooms spread over multiple levels which was quite a bit of stairs to take - if you need more accessible rooms, better check with the hotel.

I arrived to Tira Vilagna on the day Bali was hit by mayor cyclone (big storm) and was pleasantly surpriced by how well, these wooden houses isolate the stormy weather outside and inside remain being a cozy, peaceful oasis. So despite the strong wind and heavy rain I enjoyed my holiday, as I had a restorative sleep every night (thanks to the cooler temperature of Kintamani and nice hot water bottle provided by accomodation warming my feet), enjoyed the lovely meals in the restaurant and even got in some exercise, while walking up and down the stairs between my room and the restaurant. The rooms are also very spaceous, so there is no excuse, not to do your morning stretch or yoga session.

Having to leave

The hotel is up on the crater of Batur caldera, but set in pine forest looking towards Ubud. The hotel is beautifully designed, incorporating a lot of wood and interesting architecture as well as traditional joglos. The rooms are fantastic and beautifully designed, with a huge double bed and a wonderful bathroom. The food in the restaurant was very high quality and well-priced, and the bar was very cool for pre- or post-dinner drinks. We will definitely visit again.

It could do with a swimming pool, even a small one, but there is an area to sit outside with a pond and pool bar.

I had the most wonderful stay at this hidden gem! The hotel offers a cozy and secluded retreat, perfect for anyone looking to escape the noise of daily life. Nestled in nature, the peaceful surroundings and quiet atmosphere made it the ideal place to unwind. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, thoughtfully designed to create a warm and inviting space. Waking up to the sounds of nature instead of city traffic was such a refreshing experience. The photos simply don’t do this place justice—the beauty and tranquility can only be fully appreciated in person. If you’re looking for a serene getaway, this is the place to be. I can’t wait to return!

Excellent Service,Disappointing Spa Experience Our stay was truly wonderful, with everything being perfect. The receptionists, Anik and Dian, were more than amazing, and all the staff were incredibly helpful and ready to assist us.

The only disappointing experience at this hotel was the spa. While the Balinese massage was decent (7/10), the honey facial was frankly horrible. It was nothing like a typical facial—just a wash with water, honey applied by hand, and cucumber. I honestly could have done a better job at home. The facial gets a 2/10 from me.

We stayed at Tira Vilagna for 4 nights at the end of November. We started a Mt Batur hike from this hotel (the extra sleep and shorter drive to the starting point was very nice) and spent the rest of the time relaxing and enjoying the spa and the general ambience. This was an absolutely beautiful place to stay. Cool and misty and such a gorgeous design - it genuinely lived up to the promo photos. Staff were amazing, very helpful and kind throughout our 4 night stay - we felt very indulged! They even brought a birthday treat to our room for my partner, which was just lovely. The Spa was great and it was such a treat settling down in the cosy surrounds with the daily afternoon tea.

The main downside was the relatively isolated location. We were able to get a Gojek to some of the nearby cafes with amazing views, but needed to hire a driver to go further afield for a cooking class. The front desk staff were very helpful with this :) The other thing is that after heavy rain, we started to feel cold/damp and started to wish for a dehumidifier or heater in the room. Staff were very happy to bring extra blankets though :)

Set in a beautiful peaceful location in the forrest, stunning architecture and Balinese design with many spaces for relaxing. A short 5-10 min walk or 2 min drive to the main kintamani street to view the Mt Batur sunrise at the many coffee shops. The staff were happy to arrange drivers, tours etc.

I enjoyed the exercise from the steep steps, however a caution for those who struggle with steps to request closer rooms - while there is a lift from reception to the restaurant there is no disability access and steps only to the rooms.

Location is stunning, wooden jogolos transported from Java dotted up the mountainside in amongst beautiful nature. Beds are very comfortable, good linens. Bathroom and toiletries great too. Upgrading to a larger room is worth it for the internal and external space and the views Restaurant is great and the staff helpful. It is much cooler than lower altitudes, you even get a hot water bottle at night. We had a small issue at check-in but it was sorted out very quickly and satisfactorily, great management team.

Nothing. Be aware though there are lots of hillside steps to rooms and within the main hotel.
