Dinara Ubud Hotel — Hotel in Pulau Bali

"Stylish Hotel with Major Mold Issues"

Hotel Dinara has a modern design and feels newer than many hotels in Ubud, but unfortunately, it struggles with serious mold problems due to poor construction.

From the start, it was hard to ignore. Mold stains were visible on the ceilings, poorly painted over without proper treatment. The biggest issue was the bedding—on the first day, there was a strong moldy smell. When I checked the pillows, they were covered in mold stains beneath the extra pillow covers. After asking for new pillows, the replacements had the exact same issue. The receptionist calmly explained, “All the pillows in the hotel are like this,” and insisted the black stains weren’t mold.

By the second day, the mold smell became unbearable, and we requested a room change. We checked three other rooms, but they all had the same damp smell. In the end, we didn’t switch rooms but were given a dehumidifier. The humidity level in our room was initially 86%, but after running the dehumidifier for two days, it dropped to 55%, making the space much more comfortable.

One major positive was the staff—they were incredibly kind and really did their best to help, even though their English wasn’t always perfect. Their efforts definitely made a difference in the overall experience.

We understand that the heavy rainfall in recent months worsened the situation, and the staff truly did all they could, but this is clearly an issue the owner needs to address.

It’s disappointing because the hotel has potential, but the severe mold problem makes it hard to fully enjoy the stay. Until proper renovations and better moisture control are implemented, I wouldn’t recommend it—especially for guests sensitive to damp environments.

probably in the summer months it is a great stay. The breakfast was really good. there was 2 times a week free yoga, GREAT teacher. Bed was really soft. few times a day a shuttle into UBUD.

Unfortunately due to the heavy rains the pool was green, I guess in April it all will be better.

We have been reading in a few reviews that people had the mold problems but we thought aah it will not be so bad (since it only pops up in 3-4 reviews) but unfortunately it is a problem, definitely for people with lung issues.

The rest of the hotel looks exactly like the pictures. thanks to the staff for...

The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and they went out of their way to ensure that I had everything I needed. They even provided me with some great recommendations for things to do and see in the area.

The room was absolutely stunning. It was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated with traditional Balinese accents. The bed was extremely comfortable, and I slept like a baby every night. The bathroom was also fantastic - it had a huge bathtub and a separate huge shower, and the toiletries provided were top-notch.

But the highlight of my stay was definitely the amazing pool area. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day of exploring Ubud. The pool was large and sparkling clean, and the surrounding lounge beds and umbrellas provided the perfect amount of shade and comfort.
