How does Accor treat you as an Elite guest?

Stayed at the Sofitel a few times and whilst the service is great and the EL puts on a good spread I’ve just personally found it too big. It’s quite a large resort and as such can be absolutely packed at times

I'd concur with this. At times getting a lounge by the pool can be a challenge, but not impossible. If you have a pool or lagoon access room then that's less of an issue. Having said that, it's still one of the better Accor properties in Bali, unless you're looking at The Raffles etc.

Having also stayed at the Conrad, I'd probably say that the Conrad is a better hotel.

Booked this to have a look, I’ve seen it pop up on RHR before, it was cheap on RHR. Needed one night after arrival before catching train to Yogyakarta. Yes it’s not next to station but that’s a quick Grab ride.

It’s nice enough, breakfast a bit underwhelming considering other hotels of equal price .

Decent status recognition and nice upgrade to suite for a bit more room, but it’s showing its age, rooms a bit worn/tired etc. staff as in most hotels in Jakarta are helpful and friendly and polite to the extreme.
