Books on Holiday - NamaStay and around Ubud

Updated: Jun 18, 2018

Do you love reading books? We have a bookshelf with wide selections range. Our collections are not only in English, but also in Indonesian, Chinese, Bahasa Melayu, and some other language from our previous guests.


Les Miserables is in Indonesian. Louder than Words is a good one!

Buddhism Philosophy comics in Chinese. We love reading this one

The Kite Runner in Danish. The Burma Chronicles is a good one also.

If our books are not enough for you or you'd like to have some more to read and bring home for you, we can recommend you a local book store called Ganesha Bookshop. It is located at Jalan Raya Ubud at the corner of Jalan Jembawan 1, just beside the Buda Mart.


This small bookshop has a very wide selection of books. They provide their customer with many type of books. There are used books with some signatures of the previous owners or old-but-new books. They also sell new books from the publishers, with a very good price. The first time we enter the shop, our eyes almost popped out and we stayed there for the full hour only to browse on books available.

If you'd like to know more about Balinese and their culture you have to read the black book on the third shelf titled "Discovering the Spirit of Bali"


Ganesha Bookshop offers some buy-back program for those who want to continue travelling without bringing the books they have read around. They can buy back any books with their stamp in it on 50% price with good condition. You may also sell your book for a price. All pricing are on their discretion.


If not you can always put it in our bookshelf, and we will be more than happy to take it for our incoming guests' reading material.


We will write about some books we had read for you on different articles. Stay tune!


Good reading, good knowledge, well mind, NamaStay!
