For those looking for an exotic taste in the heart of Bali, the delicious cafès and wide variety of gastronomical delights will surely capture your soul - but what if you’re craving for an authentic taste of Indian food in a foreign land? Fret not - we’ve got you covered with 3 of these hotels that serve up a wicked serving of traditional Indian food!
1. W Bali (9.2/10) (from USD 352)
Located on the scenic Seminyak Beach, W Bali is a 5-star hotel equipped with all the facilities to make you feel like royalty. Balcony rooms are available upon request, with views of the lush green gardens or sparkling waters greeting you upon coming home.

“A wonderful stay for families in the new Family Paradise part of the resort. Access to facilities in both areas.
