IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG) has signed a management agreement with PT Mustika Adiperkasa and GHS K.K. to introduce the first Kimpton property in Indonesia. Set to open its doors in early 2026, Kimpton Bali Ubud will also be the first IHG hotel to open in Bali’s cultural heart of Ubud as IHG continues to expand its luxury & lifestyle presence across the country.
Kimpton has established a strong global presence across the Americas, Europe and Asia. Kimpton Bali Ubud will offer 101 rooms that reflect the brand’s signature style. The hotel is set along a stretch of the sacred Wos River, and it is rare to have an internationally branded hotel located in the heart of the Ubud district within walking distance of Ubud Palace (Puri Saren Agung). Embracing the cultural and spiritual essence of Bali’s artistic heart, Kimpton Bali Ubud will provide guests with a serene and inspiring retreat, where nature and local heritage are woven into every detail.
Kimpton Bali Ubud will introduce IMAMURA restaurant, helmed by Michelin-starred Chef Imamura, in partnership with GHS K.K. to bring the spirit of refined Japanese dining to Bali. The property will feature three restaurants and a café/deli, alongside wellness amenities including a fully equipped gym, spa and pool.
Located 90 minutes from Ngurah Rai International Airport (Denpasar), Ubud offers a wealth of experiences for culturally curious travelers. Guests will be able to explore iconic attractions such as the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, the scenic Tegallalang Rice Terraces and the historic Ubud Palace, all within easy reach.
IHG continues to expand in Indonesia with 31 hotels and a further 11 in the pipeline. Kimpton Bali Ubud will also further enhance IHG’s growing luxury & lifestyle presence as it joins 10 other properties across Indonesia including Regent Bali Canggu and Six Senses Uluwatu.
In 1981, Kimpton was founded by Bill Kimpton in San Francisco, pioneering the concept of unique, distinctive, design-forward hotels in the United States. The luxury lifestyle brand made its debut in Asia with the opening of Kimpton Da’An in Taipei and has since rapidly expanded its presence, including Kimpton Maa-Lai Bangkok and Kimpton Kitalay Samui in Thailand. This year, an exciting portfolio of hotels will open under the brand including Kimpton Naluria Kuala Lumpur, Kimpton Main Frankfurt, Kimpton Los Monteros Marbella, Kimpton KAFD Riyadh, Kimpton Aqeos Hainan, Kimpton Crete and Kimpton Tsim Sha Tsui Hong Kong.
