After more than 25 years in Asia, I’d always dreamed of visiting Inle Lake and ultimately I was very glad that my close Friend in Yangon recommended the Inle Princess to me. Pick up from Heho in an old Toyota sedan then the last 30 mins by Long tail boat from the town. Navigating the […]
“Sehr köstliche, kreative und authentische gehobene Küche. Die Atmosphäre ist trotzdem familiär und ungezwungen. Die verwendeten Zutaten ideal aneinander abgestimmt. Es war unheimlich köstlich. Gerne wieder!”
We stayed three nights at maison polanka. We have lived 12 years in Thailand where the people are hospitable. However, the service we encountered at maidon polanka is unlike anything we have experienced. It feels like a home away from home. No detail is lacking and the fact that the hotel staff remember your name […]
“We had a wonderful pre-Christmas stay with Sarj, Sanjay, Damien and the team at the Yala site. Service was impeccable, food outstanding, and the accomodation a fair bit more luxurious than I remembered from camping trips in my youth! We stayed 3 nights, and had 6 drives. The first 2 were great – elephants. Spotted […]
“””The Blue Mansion”” was built by a very wealthy Chinese businessman in the late 19th / early 20th century, Cheong Fact Tze himself. There is a wealth of information about the house on hand, including a small interpretive display and guided tours. The house was restored by heritage architects over 5 or 6 years in […]
“Excellent service where staff knows your name and you are guaranteed to enjoy the privacy and good food. The place also has tons of art allover as the owner is a collector. Great excursions with knowledgeable guides taking you around. Will definitely come back to this hotel and recommend to all my friends.”
This is a lovely hotel and Lake Inle is a beautiful and fascinating place. The main reason I wanted to write a review is that the hotel now has a swimming pool which has not been mentioned before. It was just completed as we were staying there and we were allowed to swim in it […]
“We stayed at Maison Polanka for the final four nights of a three-week tour to Vietnam and Cambodia. From the moment we arrived, the staff were charming and welcoming, and they could not have done anything more to make us at home during our all-too-brief stay. Any time we ventured out, there was invariably a […]
No doubt the best houseboat in kashmir,initially planned to stay at the houseboat for 2 nights but it was such wondeful place to be that extended my stay for one more night,the staff is excellent very caring and the food served one of the best ever had on my holiday…Would love to go back and […]
Booked through SLH and got a pleasant surprise of a free upgrade and late check out. Excellent couples retreat with all the luxuries of a modern hotel yet cozy enough to feel at home. Service quality is excellent. Hotel is near enough to a BTS yet once in the compound you’re cut-off from the hustle […]
