Food & drink prices at Hotel Indigo Bali Seminyak Beach by IHG
Food and beverage pricing shows mixed signals—some guests find reasonable value in room service and à la carte dining, but drinks are notably expensive, and breakfast adds significant cost when purchased post-booking.
All claims are from 2026 (January to July), with no meaningful temporal drift detected. The most recent claims (May–July 2026) contain both positive assessments of à la carte dining and negative feedback on drinks and breakfast costs, suggesting current pricing remains mixed across categories.
What the reviews tell us
Drink prices are notably high enough to discourage hotel purchases; at least one Australian guest chose to drink away from the property to avoid inflated bar pricing.
Breakfast pricing is expensive when purchased post-booking and may warrant promotional rates or more affordable options.
À la carte dining (room service and the Makase restaurant) is perceived as reasonably priced by reviewers who experienced it.
Special event dining (New Year's Eve) was criticized as expensive without delivering proportional value.
Food pricing is described as 'somewhat expensive' in general, though this perception varies by outlet and context.
The hotel's food and beverage pricing picture is mixed and somewhat inconsistent across different outlets and service types. Room service prices drew positive comment from a Singapore reviewer, and the Makase restaurant was described as reasonably priced. However, guests consistently flag three problem areas: drink prices are notably high—one Australian reviewer explicitly chose to drink away from the hotel as a result—breakfast is expensive when added after the initial booking rather than included upfront, and special dining events (New Year's Eve dinner) were criticized for high cost relative to value. A Malaysian reviewer suggested more affordable options or promotional rates would improve perception. The evidence base is moderate in size but geographically dispersed, with mixed sentiment that leans slightly negative overall.
Room Service & À la carte praised; drinks & breakfast heavily criticized.
The hotel's food and beverage pricing is segmented and inconsistent. Standard à la carte outlets (room service and Makase restaurant) receive positive or neutral feedback on value, with reviewers calling prices "reasonable" or "not too expensive." By contrast, drinks and breakfast demonstrate clear pricing friction: beverages are priced high enough that guests actively seek them off-property, and breakfast is expensive when added after booking. This suggests the hotel may be using yield-management or tiered pricing strategies that create good value on some categories and poor value on others.
The evidence
Both sides shown — including dissenting reviewsIt would be helpful if there were more affordable options or promotional rates available for guests who wish to purchase breakfast during their stay
we ended up drinking away from the hotel for that reason
