Great stay in Canggu

Great location in the middle of Canggu and large, stylish room, free water. Staff were very helpful. Main downside was that breakfast was not included and that opposite the hotel there is a bar which keeps playing music until midnight.

A GEM OF CANGGU!

SO HAPPY we decided to give The Slow a try! Location is absolutely perfect - one of the best parts of Canggu to stay at (and trust us, because we are in Bali more than 4 times a year for the past 11 years). But most importantly is how AMAZING the staff are, especially Wulan. She helped us with SO MUCH throughout our stay, and always with a smile and a cheery attitude. Do note though, there are no elevators and no TV in the room, but…small shortcomings compared to the great location and the excellent treatment + service you’ll get. Definitely recommend!

Noisy, noisy, noisy

So noisy that I left early, not at all relaxing. Motorbike noise down both sides of the hotel, music pumping through the walls. The rooms with pools are adjacent to roads so instead of a tranquil space, they feel exposed to traffic noise at all hours.

大変良かったです！ホテルのスタッフさんも最高に良かったです！なぜならば、エクスペディアで1日観光のチャーターを予約しましたが、中々タクシーが来ず、困り果てていたらスタッフの方が見かねてタクシーの会社に連絡をしてくれました。その甲斐があって約１時間後にタクシーが来て無事観光をする事が出来ました！スタッフさんに感謝しています！ また、泊まりたいです！

The Slow is absolutely beautiful! The attention to detail in the design of the hotel is truly amazing! The staff is always very nice and helpful! They will give you recommendations at any time! Music is great, and room is so beautiful that you don’t feel bad spending extra time in it! It is a bit noisy to sleep but I think that’s the case for any and every hotel in Canggu. Area is very easy to get around quickly without getting lost. Lots of great restaurants nearby!

모노클 가이드에 소개된 세련되고 힙한 부티크 호텔

세련된 인테리어와 힙한 분위기, 아트 피스와 서적 등 방안에 비치된 장식 모두 적당히 현대적이면서도 적당히 발리 스러워 멋졌다. 레스토랑 음식도 훌륭했으나 토요일 밤은 늦게까지 사람들과 음악이 끊이지 않아 잠을 자기에는 방해가 되었다

We thought The Slow was about quiet and relaxation. The decor and size of the suite is great, loved it. But it’s not quiet. We were there on a Saturday night and there was DJ playing in the bar til 11am heard clearly from our room. We were woken early by bikes, voices in the side driveway. It’s right on the main road which is good for walking to the beach, restaurants etc. Not sure why they have no TV or radio in the rooms, just their Chanel of tunes which won’t be loved by everyone. The pool was lovely in our suite but freezing cold so we didn’t use it as much as we would have liked. We also found the bed uncomfortable. Overall, it’s not what we expected.

Great stay

Absolutely loved our room with the plunge pool. The staff were very accommodating and they make the effort to familiarize with guests names and even taught us how to ride the scoopy. Heart warming service from them. But just wanted to nit pick on some areas during our stay-(1) the shower area could have better drainage/ curbs to prevent water from flowing out of the area. Given the floor type, it gets a bit slippery. (2) The sound-proofing is not that great. As they have their own bar and restaurant, our room was the nearest to it. Hence we could head people talking and walking around. Nonetheless, would definitely stay here again.

The decor of the hotel was really really cool and chic - simple but modern while maintaining elements of island vibes. The staff were really warm and friendly, and always happy to help where they can. The restaurant at the hotel was really nice, although a tad on the pricey-side for Bali, but still reasonable. Definitely worth checking!
