L Hotel Seminyak

Indulge Your Personal Style, One Temptation at a Time

If you’re the kind of traveller that chooses a hotel based on its in-house restaurant and bar venues, L Hotel Seminyak is the place you’ll want to be during your next holiday in Bali.

Strategically located along one of Seminyak’s hippest roads, L offers a host of exciting eateries and lounges that promise to elevate your upcoming getaway to new culinary heights. In the mood to feast on a tantalising selection of Bali’s unique recipes? L’s newly opened Lola restaurant offers an unforgettable selection of authentic Indonesian cuisine. Delighting discerning foodies from across the region and beyond, Lola’s ‘One Night Love Affair’ is an exceptional gastronomic experience that puts Indonesian cuisine on centrestage.

Showcased every fortnight within Lola’s intimate and dynamic dining room, you’ll feel immediately relaxed as soon as the lovely hostess greets you with one of those mesmerising Balinese smiles. With soothing global sounds playing in the background, choose from a set Indonesian Sampler paired with international wines or Lola’s exquisite a la carte menu. Whether Indonesian cuisine is already a favourite or you’re new to the archipelago’s unique flavours, you can’t go wrong with sumptuous delights such as Lola’s tender chicken satay and the chef’s grilled local fish with sambal matah, Bali’s version of salsa with minced lemongrass.

Paired with such well-known Chilean wines as Chateau Subercaseaux Sauvignon Blanc 2011 and Casillero del Diablo Pinot Noir 2011, each pairing is a match made in heaven. Although every dish is a highlight, try to save a bit of room for the team’s selection of sweet sensations. Our favourite is the bubur injin, a classic Balinese breakfast treat made with sticky black rice and topped with a creamy coconut cream. Paired with Moscato d’Bali Sababay, a lovely local varietal, don’t be surprised if you’re craving this dish long after you’ve returned home. If you happen to miss this must-experience culinary event, don’t despair; Lola is open seven-days-a-week for regular dining, so there’s plenty of opportunity to get your epicurean fix.

After dinner, treat yourself to a memorable evening at Luna Rooftop Bar, L’s open-air cocktail destination. With its rustic, wood plank deck, contemporary furnishings and endless sea views, the iconic social hub is a natural fit with Seminyak’s party vibe. Offering a seductive yet down-to-earth ambience, you’ll find a dizzying array of colourful sundowners as well as irresistible temptations from their exotic Teppanyaki and Tandoor corners. Don’t miss the inventive ‘Devils on Horseback’, an addictive combination of prune, bacon, blue cheese and rosemary. Perfect for sharing, Luna’s ‘Trio of Tandoor’ includes a platter of lightly spiced Tandoori chicken, ‘malai’ red snapper and mint prawns served with a refreshing yoghurt sauce. Favouring a farm-to-table approach, Luna’s culinary team is dedicated to sourcing locally grown ingredients and spices.

An internationally renowned cocktail maestro, who is followed by such noteworthy A-list fans as the Prince of Monaco, heads Luna’s mixology team. Featuring all of the classics, albeit with a sexy Asian twist, Luna’s cocktail list will keep you coming back for more. For hedonists that want to dance until the wee hours, we recommend Luna’s ‘Bikini Espresso Martini’, an unparalleled concoction of gourmet espresso, chocolate powder, cinnamon, palm sugar, organic coffee honey, Finlandia vodka, Angostura bitters and a crystal ice ball.
