We have stayed at the hotel VICEROY last September.
My wife did a lot of research before our trip, as we had never been to Bali before, and we stayed here on the strength of these reviews. We found the location excellent, there are plenty of shops around, and it is not far from the Monkey forest. It's a bit of a hike to the Markets, but as we enjoy walking this was not a problem for us. Taxis are plentiful and cheap in any case.
The fitness Centre is little more than a bench and a few weights, but useful as the other Gyms in Ubud are far away. I would still recommend joining Ubud Fitness Centre though as I did ( 165000 rp for 7 days membership ) if you are looking for a Gym to stay fit in the area, and just catch a Taxi there as it's about 2km away.
We always found the food excellent, and although we did not have dinner here, we had room service numerous times, and of course breakfast., we stayed in one of the deluxe room was excellent, with the Deluxe being excellent value for money. The rooms are very clean, and the whole Complex is beautifully Landscaped and excellently maintained.
My only complaint was you could hear the distant traffic during the day, as it's not far from Monkey Forrest Rd and the other main road, but at night it's pretty quiet, maybe just the occasional Monkey fight from the Monkeys which wander in sometimes!
All in all, a great place to stay if you are looking for reasonably priced accommodation, great friendly service in a well located spot.
