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

Review by: npelzer | Source: Trip Advisor
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.

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Another world"

Review by: Stuart J | Source: Trip Advisor
Incredible concept to support the local economy. Wonderful and gracious service in one of the best settings on the lake. Food was plentiful and tasty. One hour boat ride from the jetty but fairly central to attractions on the lake.

Jing’s Residence: "Oasis in the hustle & bustle"

Review by: LuxuryCoupleScotland | Source: Trip Advisor
"We can strongly recommend Jing's Residence and the walled City of Pingyao. Pingyao is a full-on, in your face experience - the sights, aromas and sounds of an ancient city engaged in modern commerce - a special experience.. That special experience can be enhanced by staying in the centre of the walled City at Jing's. Jing's is in the thick of the action, but offers a tranquil, high quality refuge to recharge your batteries. Jing's is located in a 400 year old courtyard, tastefully renovated to offer international class accommodation with 1st class service, highly attentive staff and excellent dining. If you go to Pingyao, a stay at Jing's Residence is a must."

Villa Song: "A fabulous escape from the city"

Review by: cakestin | Source: Trip Advisor
We moved to Saigon about three months ago and like to treat ourselves to a weekend in a hotel now and again. Staying in Villa Song felt like a real holiday and an escape from the city. We loved the peace and relaxation. The customer service and staff were excellent. The room was beautiful and we loved the pool area. Both mornings we were threre it was very quiet, despite the hotel being at full capacity. We ate at the restaurant the first night and enjoyed the food very much and the breakfast was great. The free boat back to the city was fun and a fantastic way to see the city from a different viewpoint, although I was loathed to get off the boat and head home! We will definitely return for another weekend getaway soon.

Rak Ko Jae Seoul: "A nice respite from a busy life and city"

Review by: Melissa W | Source: Trip Advisor
Rak Ko Jae was truly a peaceful respite after a long day of travel to South Korea. I had read lots of reviews and expected the experience to be a little more... interactive perhaps? Really, this was a pretty solitary experience as we seemed to be the only ones there and only had contact with the staff at meal times. The hanok was smaller than I expected and very quaint. I woke up at 5am and actually WANTED to get out of bed and go outside and just sit and breathe the fresh air and listen to the sparrows sing and fly around me. It was so peaceful and quiet and still. (...) I highly recommend Rak Ko Jae, but I would also say to expect a very quiet and somewhat uneventful experience while you stay. The uneventfulness of our stay was a treat, and we didn't leave once between check-in and check-out! They even reminded us that check-out was 15 minutes away... we were aware, just trying to soak up every bit of our time there.

Villa Song Saigon: "Truly the most beautiful hotel you will ever stay in"

Review by: SurfnPics | Source: Trip Advisor
"What a stunningly beautiful hotel in a truly gorgeous setting next to the Saigon River. We only had 2 nights in HCMC at the end of a two week trip to Vietnam and with the benefit of hindsight would definitely have stayed longer at Villa Song. The hotel is located in District 2, away from the city but close enough not to be a problem for pick ups/drop offs etc from tour operators. We chose the hotel specifically for it's location having done a similar thing in Bangkok where our hotel was located down the river with access to the city provided by shuttle boat. This worked perfectly for us then so we knew we would appreciate the same set up. The only flaw in our plan was allocating 2 nights instead of 4 or 5! We did a full day trip on the Mekong River with Mango Cruises (highly recommended) which didn't leave us much time to enjoy the hotel but what we did experience we loved and would definitely come back with more time to enjoy. Dinner at the restaurant watching the light change over the river with all the beautiful fairy lights decorating the garden was simply spectacular. Food & service was great. Rooms are big and beautifully appointed, good air con, good bathroom although the layout doesn't leave much bench space for toiletries and makeup however that would have been my only disappointment. Breakfast is a la carte with wonderful options on the menu and great coffee included. If we were coming back to Saigon I wouldn't book anywhere but here. Truly one of the highlights in hotel experiences. Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"
