InterContinental Bali Resort has completed the first phase of its renovation project, breathing new life into the Singaraja Wing, Grand Kencana ballroom and Sayana Lounge.
Rooms Singaraja Wing takes in 112 rooms out of the hotel’s total inventory of 417 keys, and has its own lounge.
Following the renovation, guestrooms here feature an even stronger Balinese architectural flavour. These features are found in wall murals inspired by traditional textile patterns as well as bed headboards with carvings similar to geometric lattice seen on traditional Balinese doorways.
The refreshed rooms now come with enhanced consumer technology such as a smart IPTV with a 43-inch screen, high-speed Internet connection and a messaging system for guest services.
New too are some eco-friendly initiatives, such as a sensor that tweaks room temperature according to the presence of occupants and as well as automatic lights. In the bathroom, taps are set to low water flow. Good initiative, although I personally prefer a stimulating power shower.
MICE facilities The Grand Kencana ballroom has been given fresh carpets and a brighter shade for walls and ceilings.
The ballroom, good for 600 pax receptions or 420 pax banquets, is joined by five other function rooms and a host of attractive outdoor venues that can support a variety of events. The indoor spaces are fitted with a permanent stage, wide-screen displays and audiovisual equipment, and come with a dedicated control room and banquet kitchen.
Adding to the hotel’s events prowess is a team of event specialists who can help clients with business gatherings and teambuilding programmes.
Other facilities Six F&B outlets, six pools, tennis courts, a 24-hour fitness centre, a spa and Planet Trekkers childcare facility make up the hotel’s lifestyle offerings.
Sayana Lounge is now larger, providing more room for guests who need a place to rest or freshen up before a later flight. It is equipped with large lockers for suitcases, shower rooms and sitting areas.
