sandat glamping: "Romantic getaway"
"Thanks Sandat for a truly lovely and relaxing few days! Passing through busy Ubud your driver takes you along narrow local roads, passed rice paddies and suddenly you are in a luxurious oasis. We found this to be the perfect mix of serenity allowing us to chill out but close to Ubud's restaurants, shops and attractions when we wanted more action. The staff were attentive but not invasive, the food at the restaurant tasty and fresh (we ate in a couple of times and in Ubud a couple of times), I would thoroughly recommend the Glamping tents for a romantic getaway which is slightly different to a traditional hotel."Mathis Retreat: "Perfect, Peaceful Stay in Ubud"
The Kenanga hotel was so beautiful and peaceful. I went there with a friend of mine over the holidays, and the staff was very accommodating. The lovely woman who owns the hotel was very sweet as well, and gave us great recommendations for good restaurants in the area. The hotel is located a little bit outside of Ubud, but close enough that it is only a short, inexpensive taxi from the main town center. There is also a free shuttle from the hotel to and from the center of town during the day. The infinity pool at the hotel overlooks the rice paddies, and the rooms were beautiful and very clean. The wifi is a little spotty in the rooms, but works great in the lobby, restaurant, and by the pool. I would definitely visit this hotel again!The Tiger’s Eye: "Not to be missed!"
This is probably my favourite restaurant in Phnom Penh. The cocktails were sensational and each course was flawless. The staff knew the menu well and were super professional. This place is very much "on trend" and if you're in Phnom Penh, it's not to be missed. Yummmmmm!!Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "A haven to rest up and be awestruck by the sunrise"
This is a great place to stay if you dontvwant to be in Lakeside. It's takes a while to get up there but when you do it's a haven of tranquility. The grounds are beautifully kept and the rooms eco friendly. You can be woken up in time to watch the sunrise over the Annapurna range which we did 3 days running with the view improving each time. Awesome place to have breakfast! I was suffering with a damaged back. Marcus, Jhalek and the team looked after us with a nice blend of low key care and concern and practical advice. The food is a clever blend of local and international . They have a good hotline to the local clinic. The longer you stay the more the place gets into your bones. I'm so glad I spent an entire day doing nothing just relaxing the only time on the trip. We would recommend Tiger Mountain to all our friends.The Island Lodge: "The Island Lodge is an Island Dream, in the coconut Kingdom"
My stay at the island lodge was awesome, the service, the area and the food are great. Don't hesitate to try the fusion cuisine, and enjoy the swimming pool area with a authentic via on the river mekong and its endless boat ballet, ride motorbike or bicycle in the coconut islands ... An home grown & authentic trip in the Mekong Delta!!!Villa Song Saigon: "Wonderful place"
"Everything is just perfect! The hotel is beautiful and nicely decorated. The shuttle boat takes you in historical center of Saigon in 15 mins and when coming back at night you enjoy the lights of the skyline and are really happy to escape noise and pollution. The restaurant is very good (we had dinner and breakfast) with direct view on the river. The swimming pool is as big as on photos and very quiet. All the staff is specially nice and helpful and they all speak English well. Late check out most appreciated. I strongly recommend this place where I would be happy to come again!"The Apsara Rive Droite: "A real gem!"
The Apsara rive droite is a lovely small friendly and luxurios hotel. We loved it and had a river view room with a nice terrass overlooking the river. The staff was nice and especially the assistant manager who was so helpsome and kind. We borrowed bikes during the day and took the hotels river boat in the evening. We relaxed around the pool and most of the time it was peaceful and quiet. I was surprised to ser that there were small kids since I had seen on the internet that kids under 12 were not allowed! Of course it 's hard for young kids to talk quitely and not to yell and laugh loudly so I think it would be better in such a quiet place not to let kids stay there. When you travel without your kids you don't want to be awakened by other kids and you want to have breakfast and other meals in quiet surroundings. It could be old information but there still is information on certain sites that kids are not allowed. It's a super nice place and I really recommended it!Villa Song Saigon: "French colonial Boutique Hotel"
"Wonderful view over The Saigon River, quiet & away from the Ho Chi Min bustle, 15 minutes away from the town centre in the complementary hotel shuttle boat available both way until 7pm. the rooms are very elegant, depending on choice & wallet, The service is amazing. the Restaurant serve French fusion, very good but a bit dear. This is a very classy place we loved it. "Maduzi Hotel: "Great boutique hotel"
Great little hotel & the staff are so friendly nothing to much trouble. Rooms are good size very clean and tidy Will definatly stay again Only thing missing is a pool Very close to terminal 21 and taxis are not a problemLes Maisons Wat Kor: "Maison Wat Kor – Peaceful, beautiful, welcoming"
This is a small, simple hotel, where the emphasis is on the setting, the lake, the garden, the service rather than in-room facilities. The rooms are quite simple, but perfectly comfortable, with all the facilities you reasonably need, and mostly look over a wonderful little lake with waterlilies and all kinds of flowers. There is a small restaurant serving simple but beautifully prepared food, and offering three set breakfasts - all very well judged. The most notable thing, however, is the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff - they really make you feel as if you were in your own home. We cannot recommend if highly enough - we really didn't want to leave!
