On Monday, October 7, the Mecure Kuta Bali Hotel, located opposite Bali's famous Kuta public beach, suffered a late night fire.
Quick action by staff and the local fire brigade stopped the fire from spreading to guest rooms but not before flames damaged the hotel's spa, kitchen, and Alang-Alang Restaurant.
The hotel's management emphasized that no injuries were suffered by staff or guests as the result of the incident. However, guests staying at the hotel were moved to nearby hotels while the hotel closed temporarily in order to repair damage caused by the fire.
After 7 days the hotel re-opened to guests on October 14, 2002, with a temporary dining facility set up in the building's adjacent shopping arcade while repairs are made to the building's 4th floor restaurant.
