Hi everyone,

Looking for some insights from anyone who has stayed at both.

We’ve previously stayed at the Kempinski in Bali and absolutely loved it — the experience was fantastic. We’re heading back and are considering trying The Ritz-Carlton Mandapa Reserve this time.

It’s noticeably more expensive than Kempinski, so we’re expecting a step up, but from the photos and reviews we’ve seen, it’s not entirely clear if the difference is that significant.

Would really appreciate any real-life comparisons — especially in terms of overall experience, service, rooms/villas, and whether it’s truly worth the premium.

Thanks in advance!
