Kimpton Hotels & Resorts is set to launch its first Indonesian property, Kimpton Suntaya Bali Ubud, later this year. Located on Jalan Bisma, the hotel is designed to blend with Ubud's cultural environment, drawing inspiration from the Wos River and the surrounding landscape. The name "Suntaya" combines Sanskrit words for stillness and vitality, reflecting the property's balance. The architectural concept by Denton Corker Marshall interprets Balinese ceremonial processions, featuring monumental forms and intimate spaces. The hotel will offer 101 rooms and villas, including pool suites and private pool villas. Guest rituals include the "Forgot It, We've Got It!" program, Kimpton Kickstart for daily coffee and pastries, and Kimpton Social for evening gatherings. Five dining destinations are planned, with Imamura Ubud, an omakase restaurant led by Michelin-starred Chef Hirofumi Imamura, and Shaku by Imamura, a Japanese izakaya, leading the culinary offerings. Wellness facilities include a two-story fitness studio, recovery facilities with modern movement and contrast-therapy experiences, and Sakshi Spa, which focuses on Balinese healing traditions. Austin Jones, who has experience with nearly a dozen Kimpton properties, will serve as General Manager. The hotel aims to provide a luxury lifestyle experience that is open, soulful, and connected to Bali's landscape and people.
