Hotel Tugu Lombok: "Great hotel in great location"

Review by: Bechter A | Source: Trip Advisor
The hotel is perfectly located on a white sandy beach with crystal-clear waters just a stone throw away from the Gili islands. The rooms are very spacious and clean and housekeeping is paying a lot of attention to details. Breakfast is great with many choices of made-to-order dishes, dinner choices a bit limited but quality of the food is good. Highly recommend to go for the boat tour arranged by the hotel, the skippers/snorkeling guides will find the best snorkeling spots for you around the Gili islands. All in all a great stay and we will definitely go back.

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Stunning views of Annapurnas"

Review by: CaracasChica | Source: Trip Advisor
"Loved this sanctuary at the foothills of the Annapurnas. The host was Super friendly and had dinner with us our first night. We had a villa just near the restaurant/bar which was quintessentially Nepalese. This is not for Budget travellers as the restaurant is on the expensive side and there's no where else in the immediate vicinity to dine. Stayed March 2017, traveled with friends"

Rachamankha: "Best place in the old city of Chiang Mai"

Review by: DutchWassenaar | Source: Trip Advisor
"Great location in the old town. Beautifull hotel. Charming and only 25 rooms. Nice room. Great restaurant with great food. Again the waiters do not speak english. How is this posible in a 5 star hotel? Nice pool but very bad hard chairs and no service at the pool the first day we were there. Breakfast is efficiently served A la carte. A bit strange; paper on the table during breakfast. Feels like we are in a cheap Chinese restaurant. In all the best place in the Old City."

Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Must visit"

Review by: Travelmun | Source: Trip Advisor
"The moment you step into the place, you know you are in for a treat and then the food starts coming and it taste like heaven. All the dishes were explained nicely by the waiters and the quantity for the six course was just right. They even did a vegetarian menu for my wife and as per her, it was the best vegetarian meal she ever had. Ps: do try their cocktails."

The Island Lodge: "A bijou at the Mekong Delta"

Review by: 143dominikt | Source: Trip Advisor
Our stay at The Island Lodge was simply awesome. The food is great and the service is extremely polite and attentive. Michel has taken his time to personally talk to us and make guests feel welcome which is much appreciated and adds to the warm experience we had. The whole experience is rounded up with the nice swimming pool at the Mekong river and the Spa which invite to some relaxing moments.

Yandabo Home: "Hidden Gem in the middle of nowhere"

Review by: lmourey | Source: Trip Advisor
"What a delight to come to this little hidden gem along the Ayeyarwaddy river traveling by boat from Mandalay to Pagan. Yandabo hpme consists of 12 small houses directly by the river side made out of the finest material traditional yet extremely modern. The villas are very spacious with high ceilings and a wonderful large bathroom with a rain shower. The amenities at l'Occitane a delightful surprise. The food is local and very good. The staff will take you on a tour the nearby villages one totally immersed in making pottery the other on the other side of the river farmers with a population of 4500 water buffaloes. The people are lovely and very friendly the area is truly authentic and not only single tourist in sight. I highly recommend this place as a stop along the route it beats Yangon and Mandalay by far. The only thing I could add would be a lounge area with some sofas by the river side so one could sit and relax whilst sipping some local tea"

Satri House: "Fabulous"

Review by: Steven B | Source: Trip Advisor
"What a super hotel. The moment you arrive you can tell the place has style. The staff are very welcoming (Keo was particularly helpful) and if you book through Mr and Mrs Smith you get a free massage. The spa is great with all treatments reasonably priced. The common areas are decorated very nicely - makes you feel like it's someone's house. The main hotel building is beautiful - it belonged to a Laos prince. The swimming pool and grounds are lovely. The rooms are very spacious and so to is the bathroom - we had a great walk in shower and a separate toilet. The food is delicious - breakfast is lovely and lunch (if you want it) is great and dinner delicious - we ate there every night as so nice. There is also a nice pool bar for cocktails. The location is also very convenient and about 15 minutes from the airport. Highly recommend this place Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

Hotel Tugu Malang: "Fantastic museum that functions as a splendid hotel"

Review by: Flix_vdb | Source: Trip Advisor
"The Hotel Tugu in Malang is truly a gem that is worth visiting when in the area. The high tea is amazing in a colonial setting with a huge array of teas and coffees and also the accompanying delicacies. I highly recommend going on the art tour with Manda, the Guest Recognition Officer. She eloquently explained the most important pieces of art and gave us a nice tour through the whole hotel. In the evening we went to the (cigar) bar, where there's an impressive selection of cocktails, wines and spirits. The bartender was a bit disconnected, but made good cocktails. The breakfast was the only part we were able to enjoy at the restaurant, since we went somewhere else for dinner. Again, a huge selection from which you can choose your preference (healthy options included). Certainly worth visiting, especially for the price they offer. I can even highly recommend the Presidential Suite for 15,000,000 that Manda was so kind to show us. What an impressively sized bed it has, wow! John from the reception was extremely kind too! I almost forgot the most amazing part: even though it's located right in the heart of the city and next to a busy road, the rooms are completely quiet and you enjoy a relaxing sleep."

Mathis Retreat: "Big nice room and pool by rice fields"

Review by: Tat_Tatchai | Source: Trip Advisor
Very nice boutique hotel in Ubud. The room is very nice, clean, and the bed very comfortable. The swimming pool by the rice field is a superb way to chill in the afternoon. Free shuttle to Ubud center is a plus:)
