Tugu Malang: "My home away from home"

"I was born and raised in Malang, but reside overseas the last 17 years. Whenever I visited my family, this is my go to hotel, without a doubt. This year only, they'll see me 3x, which each visit I stayed minimum 7 nights. I've been a repeat guest since several years ago. Few of Hotel Tugu employees know me by my first name. I have my favorite room, #211 (corner room, spacious with Alun Alun view) and Tugu Hotel always accommodate me so I could stay in that room every time I made a request. I don't think I've ever received such attentive and personalized service anywhere else. All the staff treated me with respect, and I don't think I've received different treatments than any other guest, westerners, or not. For that I'm very grateful. Such a high quality service. Location is the best. Many of public transportation routes will pass this area. I could hop on and off easily to other parts of this town. Specially to satisfy my old cravings for local specialties. It's only 5-10 minutes ride to Lumpia Hoklay, Pecel Kawi, Rawon Nguling, etc. earlier this year, I experienced the multiple days of public transportation strike in front of the city hall, which is located next door to this hotel. However, staying in wasn't a problem for me. Staff when above and beyond to accommodate my requests, multiple time on different visits. I'm so looking forward to my next stay in few months. "

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "A real highlight of our trip"

"What they are doing at the Inle Heritage should be used as an example for the rest of Myanmar and for other hotels in emerging markets. Service was fantastic, at first we felt a little overwhelmed with all of the greetings and personal care from the staff.. given that there are 4 times as many staff as guests you may understand why it may feel like this, but after a short while we realised that they are all genuinely lovely, friendly staff that are eager to please and interact with you.. We embraced it. We visited during a very heavy storm and a very large piece of bamboo was hitting against the side of our room, we only mentioned it briefly to a junior member of staff on the way to breakfast and by the time we returned from our day trip it had been cut back.. A huge bamboo tree that would need some serious work.. We were extremely impressed with the effort. Food was excellent and the setting beautiful. Thanks Inle Heritage and keep up your efforts! Stayed January 2016, traveled as a couple"

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Idyllic Ayervedic break by the Arabian Sea"

This is a wonderful place to rejuvenate: attractive, comfortably furnished cottages, welcoming & helpful staff, excellent food prepared by highly skilled chef, superb treatments organised to address specific needs all set in a beautiful location. Excellent library. Great trips & events e.g Theyam, birdwatching, ashrams & temples.

Tugu Lombok: "A magical place with beauty in every step"

"The hotel is beautiful, with lot of different areas to explore, relax and even work. All the areas are decorated with elegance, full of art objects. The room was very comfortable, the bathroom was amazing with open air area. The hotel staff is very kind, you feel pampered every minute. "

Inle Princess Resort: "Eine Institution"

"Zitat eines Hotel Managers am Nahgpali Beach im Westen Myanmar. Besser lässt sich dieser Traum nicht umschreiben. Alles erscheint hier selbstverständlich, obwohl unglaubhaft: Herzlichkeit, Professionalität, hervorragende Massagen, asiatische/myanmar aber auch europäische Küche auf Sterne Niveau, alles ist sicherlich auch in den großen asiatischen Metropolen zu finden. Einen offenen Kaminofen, der einem die kalten Nächte am Inle See vergessen lässt, kann man allenfalls in einem schweizerischen 5 Sterne Chalet Resort erwarten, das ist in Südostasien einmalig wie so einiges andere hier am Inle See. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

The Cabochon Hotel: "Stylish Boutique hotel"

In the middle of Bangkok we found this stylish Hotel in an old Colonial style Building. The staff was very friendly and after running around in Bangkok the Swimmingpool on the rooftop was a blessing. The room was huge and the furniture very stylish like the Hotel. A must stay for people who like to be in the middle of this city and want to enjoy the amenities of a quite Boutique Hotel. A lot of good Bars and Restaurants are just around the corner.

Rachamankha: "Surrounded by tasteful chinese art"

Its hard to imagine that this secret retreat is in the heart of Chaing Mai - The hotel is absolutely gorgeous - exquisite - so charming - the furniture is to die for - so tasteful - my husband and I adored our stay there - and because it was so central - we were able to visit the market by foot just 5 mins away. What a gem this place is - and I loved the symmetry - wow just awesome. Food was fab - and every afternoon my hubby and I would just sit and drink tea and soak it all in. Loved the place

Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Exceeded expectations"

"Brill stay. Staff,food,views. Staff did all they could to make it a pleasant stay. Tum (resort manager) even came to get us from the airport You do need transport to travel around but we just chilled on site. Private pool is a bonus and self cleaning. Food is priced reasonably. Although its a limited menu the food is tasty. Really recommend 1-1 cooking classes . Take pen paper and make sure cameras charged! Private dining on the beach was fab,Faith was flexible with the menu and made sure it was how we wanted Wednesday is optional social buffet with free coctail hour (you can go for coctails and not have buffet) ,and couple of other nights has goid live music Note that its a shingle beach and only one other hotel next door has access so always quiet. Free kayaking and paddleboarding for guests Make sure you put on deet spray as theres lots of mosquitos at night. Shower wasnt too powerful but sufficient. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"
