Amata Lanna: "4 Day Stay at the Beautiful and Quaint Amata Lanna"

Review by: B677 | Source: Trip Advisor
This particular hotel is very quaint and absolutely beautiful, with first class touches at every turn. The detail in the decor of 100 year old teak wood everywhere and large carved doors completes the experience. The highly accommodating (and primarily English speaking) staff is wonderful and genuinely care about your experience. They go above and beyond every day-from the delicious homemade Thai breakfast, to the turn-down service, and the general likability of each individual. The area where the hotel is located is in a relatively more quiet part of town yet walking distance to major areas. Truly a one of a kind experience. Cannot recommend enough!

Review by: bigpiou | Source: Trip Advisor
"Hôtel au charme fou !! Un rêve éveillé ! Cette arrivée moteur coupé avec l'aide d'un pagayeur traditionnel pris au passage à l'approche de l'hôtel ! C juste magique !! Personnel très gentil ! Nous avions un bungalow sur pilotis avec vue sur le lac on recommande fortement !! Nous avons eu la chance d'y passer 4 nuits et le bungalow est du bon côté pour le coucher de soleil donc là pareil de la magie tous les soirs le bonheur !! Hotel à recommander vivement ! Déjà si vous avez la chance de venir au lac inle c déjà top mais dormir au inle princess resort est une grande chance ! Un vrai paradis nous étions enchantés ! Petits déjeuners parfaits comme le reste ! Et là pareil la vue sur le lac en mangeant le matin est un bonheur à l'état pur !! Que de superlatifs !! Les repas le soir sont très bien aussi avec des prix européens ! Nous sommes allés manger un soir en ville mais le taxi coûte 25$ donc au final après nous sommes restés tranquillou à l'hôtel ! Voilà de magnifiques souvenirs allez y !! Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"

Misool Eco Resort: "Amazing stay in paradise"

Review by: Rod38 | Source: Trip Advisor
"I have spent 9 days in the Misool Eco Resort in November 2106 and it was truly paradise. I have been to Raja Ampat before to resorts in the northern part, but this resort and diving are on a next level. The resort is great and very spacious compared to other resorts. The rooms and facilities are amazing, but what stands out is the staff and their commitment to make your holiday amazing. Yes, this resort is more expensive, but in my view worth it. The rooms, food and other facilities are super. The diving is next level, although norther Raja Ampat has also similar and amazing dive sites, the dive sites near this resort have much less people and most often you have dive sites just for your selves. Another big difference are the mantas, I have seen them in northern Raja Ampat and the Maldives, but here I saw almost always the larger oceanic mantas and they not only cam much closer, they were not only in the known cleaning station site, but we same the almost every day on other dives as well. Also, the muck ( diving is great, the amount of e.g. pygmy seahorses is amazing, etc. The dive guides and boat crew are super friendly and professional and actively search for what you want to see. My tip would be to try the new dive scooters and this was a lot of fun. Furthermore, their commitment to protect the reefs, fish, mantas and sharks is impressive. I would highly recommend to go to this resort if you like to fully relax and dive in paradise, thanks again to Sue, Marc and your entire staff for an amazing stay at your resort."

Jing’s Residence: "Stay and be immersed in 1000 years historic China"

Review by: HenryOnly | Source: Trip Advisor
WHen I visited Pingyao, I felt like stepping into an Ip Man/Kung Fu Master movie. This hotel amplified that experience as, like most of Pingyao, it is a beautifully restored 1000-year old historic oriental masterpiece. It really felt like one was staying at Ip Man's place itself!...well in addition of the excellent breakfast, modern amenities like WiFi and television, cozy and luxurious lounge. Since this hotel is located at an unassuming street in Pingyao, it is also very quiet. If you can afford it, stay here when visiting Pingyao.

Cuca: "Best meal in Bali"

Review by: Teresa D | Source: Trip Advisor
Cuca really stood out for me, personally the best dining experience I've had in Bali. Creative, modern twist to some classic dishes and unusual (in a good way) food combinations - for example ceviche with watermelon ice!! It's also very well priced and service was examplary. The dish that stood out for me was the smoked butterfish (presented as a rose as per attached photo). Stop reading, go try it

Labyrinth: "Deserving of the Michelin Star"

Review by: hcj_13 | Source: Trip Advisor
Use to eat at the restaurant regularly before they received their Michelin Star. Was a bit apprehensive when I made the booking recently as the restaurant was heavily booked most days and I fear that that their standards might be compromised with the high popularity. My fear was unfounded as the food and service standards was certainly up to expectations . My guest was impressed as well and I certainly look forward to eating there in the near future. Keep up the good work and they truly deserved their star.

Villa Song Saigon: "No. 1 Hotel … deservedly so"

Review by: travel1042 | Source: Trip Advisor
We stayed at the Villa Song Hotel for our first night in Vietnam and for our last 3 nights and we have nothing but good things to say. All the staff are extremely helpful and friendly, the food is excellent (including the breakfast which is served all day), the hotel is in a perfect position by the river - so quiet and peaceful after visiting HCM. and the free boat shuttle service is a wonderful way to visit the city. The hotel deserves all the good reviews it receives and hopefully will be no.1 for many more years.
