A British tourist has been found dead in a hostel in Bali the morning after he asked staff to have his room changed. 

The 32-year-old reportedly told a friend he was feeling unwell before returning to the room he was staying at the hostel in the Badung Regency. 

The man had reportedly planned to change rooms the following day, the reports. 

Concerns emerged as a cleaner noticed he had not left his room past noon. 

Growing suspicious, she informed hostel staff who alerted the police.

Head of Public Relations of the Badung Police said: “The witness tried to clean the room because the victim had actually wanted to move rooms.

It was his own request the day before. The witness knocked on the room wall several times but there was no response.

“Suspecting something unwanted had happened in the room, she tried to open the curtain and was shocked to see the victim lying face down.”

No evidence of violence has been found, while police said they believed the man was suffering from an illness.

Officials are carrying out a post-mortem examination as they seek to find the cause of death in the 32-year-old.
