A lovely quiet little place in great location with only a few minutes walk to the beach. The staff are very pleasant and caring. Breakfast is not smorgasbord but sufficient and there is always someone there to cook you eggs anyway you want. The pool is lovely but a bit warm…..I guess they can’t help that with the beautiful weather we had during our 8 day stay. Soon the massive Icon Complex will be completed and that is directly across the road so I’m sure that will be a very positive thing for Swastika Guesthouse guests.

Get what you pay for.
You get what you pay for. It was a good price. One thing that would be really nice is a place to hang the bath towel in the bathroom. No towel bar or hook or nothing. The air-conditioning unit didn't seem to work so well. Fairly quiet place and typical Balanese friendliness.

Friendly staff and cheap, but run-down and smells
Pros: genuinely kind staff, great value for money, Android TV. New restaurant was good (re-opened during our stay). Cons: bathroom smell was a showstopper (we couldn't change room, so moved to another hotel), constant noise from construction, pool had strong chemicals. WiFi was patchy.

Handy location to beach and night markets. Great staff, friendly and there to help. Included breakfast was ok. Bad parts were massive building site across the road so alot of trucks and building noise. Also alot of lights shining into the rooms due to upper windows have no blinds or curtains. Overall, the bathrooms especially are run down and could do with an upgrade but they are clean. I would stay again.

Next time we are in Sanur we will definitely consider the Swastika Guest House. It was pleasant and safe and the staff are all really nice and very helpful. Especially our cleaning lady, she was the best and very nice to us. The rooms are a little on the dated side but overall for the price it's nice. Clean place and close to all the dining and shopping and even the beach. Thanks for a great stay!

I would have liked cable TV, but that is a very small down. The bathroom was lovely, the rooms old school wood which i appreciate, location very agreeable, and the bed and bedding high quality. I have stayed here before, about 8 years earlier, and the facilities have improved. This is a good hotel.

I really liked the breakfast, Good variety and fresh. Rooms were clean but needed upgrading. Pool lounges were never wiped down so we had to wipe them down ourselves to remove dirt and bird poo. The restaurant was very good and we ate there every night. Staff at guest house and restaurant were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Disappointing. Really poor on many levels, except the staff who are fairly pleasant. Not geared up to accept Expedia reservations. Seemed to send the reception into meltdown and confusion on arrival. Rooms are dark, dingy very old. Toilet roll holder could have been from the 80's or earlier. The building probably wasn't a hotel then, meaning they added old finishings to a new hotel. Breakfast is really poor. Not many guests staying. Now i know why. Diluting orange juice, tinned breakfast sausasges, stale pastries. Really poor selection. On the basis they have a restaurant a few yards away offering a full service it should be much better. Even charging more for it. For the money, you can stay in much nicer places, get a better "free breakfast" for less. bathroom floor tiles are really dark and dirty. or they used a lighter grout around the edge of the room which I doubt. All in all, nice staff, a place to lie your head. Just very dirty, not worth the money regardless what you paid.

Good for a budget hotel. If you expect 5 star go elsewhere. Major disappointment was that in our rush to meet checkout time we left clothes/shoes in the wardrobe. Despite emailing that night both direct to hotel plus through the website ( to arrange couriering) we had no reply from the hotel. Little things like this is the reason for the above Staff rating.

Nice hotel close to the beach
I reserved the hotel 5 minutes before I showed up. They were extremely accommodating and gave me a beautiful room right away. The room was clean, smelled fresh, and had no problems whatsoever. The breakfast was good and unlimited. There were eggs, bacon, rice, bread, fruits, tea, and coffee. The facility is beautiful. My room was on top of a restaurant that played live music on some nights so I had to sleep with earplugs. The only inconvenience is that the traffic from the street can be heard from the room. Nevertheless, I loved this place so much that I extended my stay several times and even cancelled other hotel reservations because I was really happy with this place. Even though they had my room reserved for another person, when I decided to extend my stay, they accommodated me and left me in the same room. The beach is a 3 minute walk from the hotel and is really clean and calm. There are several good restaurants nearby as this hotel is on a very popular street in Sanur. It also a 5 minute walk from a market where you can get delicious and cheap local food. I also had several friends reserve a room at the last minute and the staff was extremely accommodating. The day of my departure, they kept my luggages locked in a room after I checked out, so that I may enjoy the beach the last day. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with the service, cleanliness, service, and condition of the room and facilities. I will definitely stay at this hotel again.

Great value hotel in good location.
This was my second stay at this hotel, which should speak for itself. The room was spacious and comfortable, with fridge... all that's needed, and cleaned everyday. The staff are all really friendly and helpful. Fun to chat to also. I had a good look through all hotel sites, to see if there was anything even better, before booking this time, and still didn't see anything to be better value!!! The head waiter is John, who told me to mention his name if I ever write a review!!! LOL He's a good guy!!! Ketut is absolutely charming too... always made me feel special... so friendly and such a big smile every time I came in.

Very reasonable guesthouse in Sanur
Everything we needed - excellent value, nice staff, clean & comfortable room with ac. Enjoyed cooked breakfast with options, plus fruit juices & hot drinks by lovely pool. We booked through online via TripAdvisor & they didn't have our booking which was unfortunate late at night. Also they tried to charge us more for 2 people, plus being a dulux room despite confirmation this was what we had paid for. Water went off, but despite these minor inconvenienced, we had a lovely time there. We moved to a non standard room that was away from the road & renovations next door, so it worked out well. Restaurant is lovely - best beef rendang.

Ich bin immer wieder gerne hier weil es gepflegt und sauber ist und das Personal weltklasse. Alles balinesisches Hotel in guter Lage zu Strand, Hauptstraße und Nachtmarkt. Mir persönlich gefallen die Superior Zimmer im hinteren Bereich fast besser als die etwas moderneren Deluxe Zimmer im vorderen Bereich nahe zur Straße. Viele Grüße an Ketut, Coman und Kadek der immer gute Eier Gerichte beim Frühstück macht. Sogar Cerealien und Kuchen gibt es immer. Danke euch! Thomas

リーズナブルな価格です
12/23から8泊朝食付き最終日正午チェックアウトで24千円と、リーズナブルな価格でした。水回りが外部と高い位置の網戸で繋がり部屋の扉を占めないと空調冷気が逃げるのがやや難点でしたが、値段からしたら満足です。ハーディーズショピングセンターからは徒歩20分程度になり、姉妹宿のスワスティカバンガローからの3分に較べ遠いです。

バリへ来る時は必ず宿泊するサヌールの宿です。 ホテルは緑が多く、落ち着きリラックスできます。建物は古いので、部屋はデラックスをオススメします。 シャワーやお湯は、満足いく感じではありません。これは仕方ないと思っております。 朝食は昔から変わり映えなく地味です。外に出れば、飲食店カフェ色々あるので、外で朝食もアリです。
