Villa Song Saigon: "The best boutique hotel in Ho Chi Min"

if you're interested in walking out your door in to the action & like cookie cutter oder hotels then this is not for you... but if you appreciate quiet, elegant designed properties right on the river then this is the place! Great accommodating staff makes it my go to place whenever I travel to Ho Chi Min City! Hands down the best hotel there & I've styes in all the other so called best ones.

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "A Room with a View"

I had the most amazing view of the mountains from my stone bungalow. My 4 poster bed was warmed each night with a hot water bottle. The staff were very helpful and the food the best that I had in Nepal. A bird watcher's dream.

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Blissful luxury"

"Have just spent 3 nights in this breathtakingly beautiful part of Cambodia and can't recommend this place highly enough. The setting is serene and absolutely beautiful, surrounded by a forest rich with birdlife and native animals. The floating tents are very nicely appointed and comfortable. Thid is how camping should be! What made the stay for me was the excellent service provided by professional and attentive staff. Nothing was too much trouble and the focus is very much on the visitor enjoying their stay. From the restaurant staff to the guides who took us on a day tour to the waterfall, the staff are friendly and more than happy to share information about this beautiful region and their culture. The food was amazing with a changing set menu and lots of a la carte options, utilising local fresh ingredients. A good range of wine, beer and spirits is also on offer. The concept of no tv, no telephones and no internet may be challenging for some however the opportunity to sit and watch river life and the natural environment is priceless. This was the highlight of my Cambodia trip and I can't recommend this experience highly enough"

MesaStila: "Number 1, 2 and 3 on my list…."

"Breathtaking. Wonderful room with wonderful views. Great staff. Wonderful dinner and breakfast. Not too many guests, which we did not mind. Mother and sister went for a couple of treatments at the spa and were impressed. Brother and I had a 06.30 trailrun with our guide Augus, probably the best morning of our holiday!"

Maison Polanka: "Total satisfaction"

A calm oasis after a day visiting temples and museums. Helpful and responsive staff, always obliging and willing to go that extra mile. Food is always fresh and delightful. The gardens and the pool are are so beautiful and relaxing. The office staff are particularly efficient in suggesting and arranging tourist activities and guides

David’s Kitchen: "Paiboon WAIQUAMDEE"

"Great place, great location and super great food and staff. They deserve to be number one. I like the mushroom soup. The red-meat main courses are all superb. Will try fish next visit. The wine selection is quite abundant and diverse. Would love to see ""Chablis"" in the list though. I give them 3-star Michelin equivalent. Appreciate personalized welcome amenities, one of a kind. Thumbs up."

Locavore: "Experience of a lifetime"

"First of all: YOU MUST BOOK AHEAD if you want to go to dinner; lunch is less in demand and somewhat easier. We had the most amazing evening with friendly and efficient staff, an elegant and comfortable dining room - with plenty of space between tables, such a luxury - and then the food. Our party of three included one who is violently allergic to shellfish/seafood so with great care and input from the chefs, an alternative menu was chosen for her that included dishes from the vegetarian menu as well as safe dishes from the meat/fish menu. Then we sat back and the dishes started coming. Not only is the food exquisite, but the dishes (or rocks!) on and in which it's served and beautiful too. We settled for the seven courses and even though each is little more than one or two mouthfuls, it was more than enough and every dish was a surprise and beyond delicious. My favourite (apparently I'm not alone) was the quenelle of Bloody Mary sorbet on a slice of frozen tomato that then had a little jug of hot and clear tomato broth poured over it. More like essence of tomato than broth: absolutely marvellous! Didn't have the matching drinks as I felt a puritan need to walk out under my own steam, but wine is an easy alternative and uniformly and reasonably priced. The chef-owners are passionate about local and fresh produce and experimenting – and it shows. Altogether a memorable evening."

Tugu Lombok: "Amazing"

"My husband and 10 yr daughter visited this hotel for 5 days in April 2016. We arrived by boat on the shores of the hotel's beach. Our first impression was complete joy. The hotel manager was down to meet our boat with in moments. 'Elly', the manager, greeted us with a big smile and gracious welcome. They took our bags and Elly led us to the beautiful pool side restaurant where we enjoyed a complimentary cold drink and cold towells (scented with Jasmin). She told us all about the hotel and gave us a quick orientation. We were quickly taken by the gorgeous artifacts & structures surrounding the hotel grounds. Our room was gorgeous. The ceilings were high. The bathroom was well stocked with everytjing we needed. They had set up a separate, lovely bed for our daughter. The rooms had all the comforts you could require - stocked fridge, mosquito lotion and nets, earplugs for the early morning Muslim prayers ( which I love btw!) The hotel supplied kayaks and snorkeling gear (through we brought our own). The snorkeling was great here. The water was crystal clear and blue. The food here is incredible. Some of the best Indonesian food we've had anywhere. The drinks we all freshly mottled and cold! The art and acitecture of the entire hotel is memorizing. The staff was all very happy and very friendly, and always available. Elly organized an incredible waterfall hike to Mnt Rinjani for us. This was a highlight of our 6 week stay in Indonesia. The hotel's beaches are full of treasures from the sea. I even found an unbroken urchin shell. There are 2 amazing pools. Both very clean and cool. The entire experience of our stay at Tugu in Lombock was nothing short of wonderful. We hope to return there one day. We loved Tugu!!"

Pindaya Farm House: "A wonderful, relaxing time"

Aye Aye, her husband and team at Thahara Pindaya couldn't have been more welcoming. The accommodation and food were fantastic and the walks and sightseeing gave us a small insight to a spectacular, fantastic, friendly country. Thank you!

Sukoon Houseboat: "Harsh1111"

"It was my first time in Kashmir so houseboat was one of the top attractions in my mind. Whilst searching online i encountered this beautiful piece of art and realised how beautiful and perfectly suitable it was for family and a comfortable five star houseboat stay. Upon arrival we were greeted by welcome drink kahwa and a very soft scarf. After that thw fun starts. Beautiful rooms,fresh linen, Kama ayurveda toiletries and not to forget a very courteous and supporting staff. Aashiq Bashir Pannnag Bela Rashid These five made our stay an unforgettable experience and stood all our needs within decent time. Sukoon has its own boat that completes too and fro from the boat ghat 19A to the Sukoon houseboat as a complementary service. Wifi is available roand the clock. It is highly recommended to go for Sukoon houseboat in case one is looking for a houseboat experience."
