Magnificently well restored 19th century Chinese Mansion, with a museum area. We could stay for four days, only. Could have stayed for weeks, it was such a good experience. Staff were super friendly, helpful, and it was as if they felt priveliged to be at the Blue Mansion. Shiro at reception was a standout with her advice and info about the Mansion. Breakfast was impressive it was so good, served in a beautiful location. The rooms were amazing. The most comfortable bed in a hotel I have ever found. Bathroom worked well. Pool was smallish, but most appreciated. The Indigo Restaurant, beautifully decorated, was definately worth while, at least once. We had a great dinner there. Guided tours several times a day. The tour we joined was run by a highly knowledgable Hakka Lady. A must do if you are staying. Will be back !Noel Rodrigo’s Leopard Safaris: "A Highlight of our Sri Lanka Trip"
My girlfriend and I booked a 24 safari with Leopard. We are two single moms travelling with four little girls and this was a highlight of our three weeks in Sri Lanka. The staff were amazing - treating us to snack, beverages and the most delicious outdoor dining experience we've had. Our daughters were pampered, which was such a treat for the moms! We appreciated Leopard's desire to harmonize with nature, thoroughly enjoyed our hot shower after safari and even saw a family of leopards on our last treat out.4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "A must stay experience"
"This place is amazing. Everything has been thought of to make his experience truly amazing. A boat picks you up and you can go to a nearby waterfall to swim and kayak. Our kids were towed along part of the river back to the hotel and loved it! The hotel is floating in a quiet area of the river. You can swim directly off your room, paddle or stand up paddle. The rooms are are very thoughtful and have everything you would expect. All toiletries are Eco friendly. There are movies and books (rained for a few hours) board games etc. The meals are delicious, the trip to see the fireflies is exciting. You must go and stay here, one night really isn't enough!"Villa Song Saigon: "A luxurious and peaceful escape from the bustle of the city"
"Our first two nights in Vietnam were spent at Villa Song. This was the most idyllic way to kickstart our holiday. The location beside the river is specatular. We had the suite on the top floor with the little parlour. Our two girls slept in the parlour which worked perfectly - leaving us in the four poster bed. This is a very romantic, charming hotel - the furnishings and fittings are beautiful. But the key for us was that it is away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The first day we were collected by tour company Les Rives to take us by boat to the Chi Chi Tunnels – this was perfect because they could simply collect us and drop us back at the hotel’s private pier. The restaurant is fabulous – a beautiful al fresco location for dinner and breakfast. "Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Serene getaway with amazing massages, food,hospitality and spaces"
Hi, We spent a weekend at Neeleshwar and we intend to go back. The rooms are well appointed and spacious, the staff was very gracious and genuinely interested in you. The ayurvedic massages are a "must do". The infinity pool and lagoon ride also add to all the gorgeousness of it all. The menu changes everyday. Ideal for people who are stressed our and need a pick-me-up. The beach is pristine and quiet. Fishing trawlers pass by in the distance when you have breakfast. Highly recommend, especially for women travelers .Tugu Bali: "Magical grounds and delightful staff"
We loved our Dedari Suite with the private pool. Our favorite feature was the beautiful and peaceful indoor/outdoor shower - I've never enjoyed washing up more! The grounds were lovely, and the location right next to Batu Bolong Beach was great for surf lessons. Every single staff member was welcoming and friendly, and they truly went out of their way to help us get the most out of our stay.Tugu Lombok: "A really special place"
"This hotel is unique in its' blend of Asian antiques, classical and modern design, creative use of the old while maintaining the highest level of comfort and modern amenities. The staff is over the top. They will make you feel welcome and will help you achieve almost anything your heart desires. And they make you feel that they sincerely care about you and your enjoying their hotel/island/culture. I developed an external ear infection from swimming and the manager literally hooked me up with a pharmacy and helped me get medicine for it within minutes of hearing of my problem. You will not forget your stay here, ever."Nam Bo Boutique Hotel: "Great view, great service"
"We were in room 8 on the third floor-a tastefully decorated small suite with three balconies in the living room overlooking the waterfront and promenade. The two windows in the bedroom also overlooked the promenade as well as a side street. The rooms were spotless and the queen bed was comfortable. The provided fruits were tasty. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast in the most excellent L'escale restaurant (try it for dinner for a taste treat) was a white tablecloth affair spoiled only by the German brat children who screamed throughout. Wifi was excellent."Rachamankha: "Oasis of Tranquility"
We loved our stay at Rachamankha. In fact, it was our favorite hotel on our entire 4 week trip in Asia. Very quiet, great staff, and good location. The grounds and pool are absolutely gorgeous...if you stay be sure to save a day just to enjoy the hotel. The food at the restaurant was very good and reasonable price for a hotel restaurant. Also enjoyed massages which were reasonable. The room itself is not luxurious, but is very nice and cool Thai style. I don't know what they called it, but we got the room one level above the basic room and thought it was worth the money. Breakfast was also very good. Highly recommend this hotel.
