Kenanga Hotel: "Beautiful, serene – loved every minute of our stay here!"

"The first thing that strikes you when you enter the resort is the beauty of the place. Its a narrow entrance which first leads to the pool on one side and the restaurant on the other, with a huge rice field in front... its a beautiful feeling. Our room was on one side of the pool, and once again was on a rice field. Very very pretty!! We had a nice patio, the room was a good size, comfortable and the bathroom was clean and spacious. The food was good, but the cozy setting made the meal very special. The staff was very polite, and efficient. The manager was very helpful, and really helped us get the most of our time in Ubud. She had a lot of helpful tips for us. The resort is located about 40 mins walk from Ubud centre, which means that its quiet and not hectic at all. There is a shuttle every hour to take you to the city centre, so its quite convenient. I only wish the shuttle operated past 5 pm, but there are plenty of taxis to take you to the centre. I would recommend Kenanga to anyone who wants to visit Ubud."

Mie Cafe: "Charming, Delicious and Pretty"

We had a wonderful dinner here. Glad we made reservations as people were turned away. I had the vegetarian price fixe. It was perfect. Nice flavors and charming setting. we sat outside and could still see the prep work in the kitchen. I would highly recommend.

The River Resort: "Paradise at the Mekong Riverside!"

This resort located nearby to Mekong River. We took a long tailed boat and go to this resort via river, instead of main road. This is a PARADISE, away from busy city and noise. The rooms are great, with nice interior design, overseen the river. The hotel offers 2 options of breakfast per person per day. It is a very relaxing experience to stay here, with surrounded by paddy field in the hotel garden.

Tugu Malang: "Excellent service in picturesque ambience, what more could you ask for?"

"Stayed in the Devata Room for 3 nights and we had one of the best family vacation ever. Room was spacious, decor was magnificent with all the antiquities around. Plenty of photo spots. The whole hotel always smelled faintly of jasmine and tuberose flower. There was nothing too troublesome for the staff to make you feel welcome and I really loved how they greeted you by your names and personalised everything, from the welcome card in the room to the placement on the restaurant. Somehow it was like staying in your rich Javanese grandmother's home. (...) My compliments for all the service staff, especially Mbak Siti in the dining room who patiently listen to my kids' babbling on how they want their eggs for breakfast. The kids absolutely loved every aspects of their stay at the hotel."

Satri House: "Very relaxing and charming"

My wife and is stayed Here for 9 days during July, and even the rainy season could not dampen our enjoyment. Satri house is so charming, relaxing, well run and very clean. The staff are very attentive and polite, the whole ambiance is very colonial, lush and elegant. Despite what others say it is only a very brief 5-10 minutes walk into the town. Simply wonderful..

David’s Kitchen: "Lovely food and excellent service"

We had a really enjoyable meal last night as part of our honeymoon trip to Chiangmai. We ate off the set 4 course menu which was excellent value and the food was delicious. I really enjoyed the pumpkin soup in particular and my husband really enjoyed his duck main. The waiting staff were brilliant and all-in-all I would highly recommend. It is a little pricier than some other local eateries but definitely worth it in terms of food quality and the lovely ambience.

The Twelve Hotel: "Excellent stay"

This is a place not to miss in Bangkok, in the city and at the same time in a very quiet area. Home both discreet and friendly availability of the owners to advise addresses, tours, hearty breakfast. We stayed for 3 very comfortable nights in rooms with XXL size, tastefully decorated. Wonderful!

Muang La Lodge: "A little peace of paradise in northern Laos"

It takes a bit of effort to get there, but its secludeness is also part of its charm. The staff of this beautiful resort with only ten rooms does everything to make your stay pleasant and memorable. There are no strict rules, except for enjoying yourself as much as possible. If you would like to stay in a tranquil, beautiful and comfortable resort and value quality over quantity, this is the place to be. Especially the five course dinner which combines the best of French and Asian cuisine is worth mentioning. If you prefer an easy getaway with all standard 5-star hotel facilities and an all-you-can-eat buffet, this is not the place for you.

Rachamankha: "Impressed"

Stayed here for our honeymoon and wow was it a great choice! The pool is stunning and the grounds are something super special. You feel like royalty here. The staff wants nothing more than to help and please you and do such a great job of making your stay lovely! They gave us fee champagne upon arrival and the manager was so lovely. Airport pickup with them went swimmingly and the breakfast was five star every morning! Couldn't be more full never ending amount of food offered! Room service was a delight as well. Only thing I would say is stay away from the burger and the dinner at the restaurant both were below average. Other than that everything was five star perfection! Will never forget this place!!

Maduzi Hotel: "Worth the experience at Maduzi"

"Everything here is excellent! Service is very good. Although some of the young staffs do not speak much English but the senior lady in charge, who speaks good English tries her very best to help with enquiries. Food was great, served in a lovely dining area with relaxing ambience. It's worthwhile to add breakfast into your booking as you are allowed to order 2 dishes + 1 juice + 1 hot beverage. Although it's not buffet style here, the menu is great with seriously delicious French, Thai and Japanese cuisines. I love best the 'Avocado in 4 ways' and the Japanese salmon dish! It's a fresh change from buffet style breakfast in most hotels where one gets many choices of food but nothing really spectacular. The bar near reception serves complimentary drinks and everything in the mini bar of the room is also complimentary with personal coffee machine. There is a fantastic work station plus a luxurious recliner chair too which are so convenient. Bed is really huge, with super comfy sheets and ample big and normal sized pillows. Room is huge, decor is lovely with spacious dressing area + walk in wardrobe area. Only setback for the bed was the comforter which is not big enough for the bed, but it's a negligible issue. The bathroom is creatively designed with infinity jacuzzi bathtub. It's great for most guests but what is lacking here is a good strong shower. It's rain shower here with weak 'splayed out' flow that is not adjustable, and one can almost stay dry standing at the centre. There is no shower head at the jacuzzi bathtub. I had to shower using the strong flow of water coming from the ceiling meant to fill up the jacuzzi tub. Hope this problem will be looked into by the management as taking a strong satisfying shower is vital for some guests! Overall this place is awesome, location is good and prices are reasonable! "
