ACCOR has introduced an exciting new era of premium, locally-inspired international hospitality to Bali with the opening of Grand Mercure Bali Seminyak, revealing fresh cultural perspectives and highlighting the rich heritage of Indonesia’s “Island of the Gods”.
According to Garth Simmons, Chief Executive Officer of Accor Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea said nestled 100 metres from the beach in Bali’s vibrant Seminyak district and as the first Grand Mercure hotel in Bali, it will also bring the timeless spirit of Bali to life through its elegant interiors, which reflect the island’s classical wood carvings and geometric weaving patterns.
“The 269 rooms and suites range from 38 to 65 square metres in size, with the décor influenced by the traditional Balinese dancer’s headdress – one of the iconic symbols of the island’s culture. Every Deluxe Room and Junior Suite features a balcony with garden views, and the Executive Suites offer panoramic ocean vistas,” he said.
Grand Mercure Bali Seminyak, he continued that is set to become the destination of choice for event planners. The graceful and glamorous Pandawa Ballroom features 500 square metres of space for one-of-a-kind weddings and corporate conferences with a tropical twist. Five function rooms also set the stage for business meetings, breakout sessions, staff training, media briefings and more.
Whether travelling for business or leisure, every guest can wind down on Mesari Beach, also known as Double Six Beach – a stunning stretch of white sand lapped by the Indian Ocean, featuring spectacular sunsets. Seminyak Street is a great place to stroll and soak up the upbeat vibe, shop in the chic boutiques or rub shoulders with residents and fellow travellers at local coffee shops.
For culture seekers, Petitenget Temple is over 140 years old and still hosts colourful festivals and ceremonies. Grand Mercure Bali Seminyak is easily accessible, just a 10km or 25 minutes’ drive from Bali’s main gateway, Ngurah Rai International Airport.
