Slow Villas and Spa: "Serenity"

"We stayed at these villas last weekend for two nights. The villas are comfortable, with a small pool in your own private garden, the food is delicious, being cooked for you on-site and then delivered to your room. Highly recommended. A complementary massage is included in your stay, and Julie, the high-energy co-owner and manager of the Villas, conducts a complementary Pilates session. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The one aspect that I would suggest to improve the experience is if real coffee could be used instead of instant, in the breakfast cafetière so, a small point I know, but there some fantastic Indonesian coffees to choose from."

Maisons Wat Kor: "Refined elegance; tranquil gardens; superb food . . .a charming, homely hotel"

"We spent Christmas Eve at this wonderful hotel. An oasis of calm close to the river. You approach through mature gardens. The colonial style hotel is small but with many areas set aside for reading and relaxing including a lovely pool area Every attention has been paid to detail so decoration is understated but elegant. Christmas Eve meal was a special celebration. The menu was sophisticated. The food five star! Gentle background music was provided by local musicians. There was a short Cambodian traditional dance provided too. This was a special meal but believe that evening meal every night would be superb. Our continental breakfas included home made French bread and jams; home made yogurt and muesli. Options for other styles of breakfast were available. The staff went out of their way to ensure our stay was as comfortable as possible. The Manager and his wife (sorry forgotten their names) also came to chat. The hotel is a tuk tuk ride from the centre of Battambang. It's a pleasant, interesting ride along the river We only stayed one night but I would return and would thoroughly recommend"

Inle Princess Resort: "Fantastic experience on the lake!"

Unlike other hotels on the lake, as your motor boat nears the resort, the motor is stopped and a local rows the boat in using his right thigh! That was definitely a unique experience for us but it also contributed to our resort being quiet and restful. We were greeted warmly and escorted to our private chalet, which had a beautiful living area, a veranda overlooking the lake, a large bathroom with bath tub and an outdoor shower. We definitely felt pampered during our one night at this wonderful resort. The dinner and our buffet breakfast the next morning did not disappoint. Truly a great experience for us

Rachamankha: "Breathtaking Buildings and Grounds"

"The Rachamankha Hotel is the most beautifully designed hotel at which we have ever stayed - an architecture and design lover’s dream. People are literally taken aback when they drive through the gates and see the front entranceway with a huge fabric panel flapping in the wind. We stayed in a ground floor room with incredibly high ceilings, a huge bathroom, and big, stylish dark wooden furniture and doors. Rachamanhka has all your modern amenities but each detail is tied beautifully together by its historic Chinese and Thai aesthetic. In the courtyard just outside our room, the welcoming seating area as well as the plants, paths and pieces of art, worked together to make us feel calm and relaxed. This is the only time we’ve ever stayed in and ordered drinks just to hang out in a hotel’s courtyard! The pool was beautiful and perfect for cooling off after a long day in the sun. Or you can just lay in the poolside chairs and have a drink with a book in hand. It’s easy to walk to many things, or just grab a tuk-tuk for a quick ride. Highly recommend staying here if you want a relaxing, luxurious time in Chiang Mai. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

Villa Song Saigon: "What makes a good hotel great?"

What makes a great hotel? Is it location, style, luxury, food quality, service, amenities, exclusivity,ambiance? Villa Song has all of this and much more. The indefinable thing that makes paying customers feel like honored guests - friends even. This is like a Mini Singapore Raffles located on the Saigon River half an hour from HCM airport. It's hard not to gush about this place and harder to find fault. I dare you to try. If you go there you will be looked after by GM Yega, his wonderful staff including the charming Freddie who seems to be able to do everything. You might be served breakfast by Miss Hua and her colleges, have a cocktail concocted for you especially by the fantastic bar manager, take a ride on the hotel launch, sit by the fabulous pool,,,,,,You will certainly be fed by master Chef Kevin. F&B director and chef from Luxembourg. The quality of food pumped out of his kitchen will delight you. I could go on and on but I am busy planning my next (much longer) stay in this very special hotel. Check out this unique and special little gem for yourself....but leave room for me.

Nam Bo Boutique Hotel: "Quaint hotel in a great location"

"On arrival we were invited to sit down & enjoy a welcome drink & snacks whilst checking in. We were then taken to our suite, which was unexpectedly spacious with a separate lounge/dining room & lovely hardwood floors throughout. Blossoms on the bed were another nice touch. However, the highlight of this hotel is the restaurant on the roof, which provides top quality food together with fabulous views of the promenade & Mekong. The breakfasts are exceptional with trays of pastries & fruit, freshly squeezed juices, yogurt & hot food cooked to order. We were there for dinner on Christmas Eve & Santa visited the restaurant & gave us all very nice presents. This was another unexpected treat. All of the staff were friendly & helpful and the service throughout our stay was of the highest quality. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel."

Tugu Bali: "One of the best"

Beautiful gardens, luxurious accommodation, out of this world lobby featuring antiques and art collection. However, the best of this hotel is the service. I unfortunately became seriously ill from a previous dining experience at another hotel whilst in Bali. Jenny the Manager (and her amazing staff) went above and beyond to assist my husband and I. Jenny personally escorted us to an international hospital where I needed to stay. Jenny and her staff ensured my husband was ok in my absence and provided daily transport to the hospital and assisted with organising my travel insurance. Jenny...I cant thank you and your team enough. You should be so proud of your beautiful hotel but also of your amazing team. I cant wait to come back and actually eat some of the food (my husband said the Nasi Goreng was the best he ate in Bali!). Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Cuca: "Best Tapas in Bali"

"If you are willing to get out of the Seminyak strip, this is most definitely worth the effort. Minimalist decor & concrete floors with an open kitchen is a hive of highly organised activity. The tapas style food is innovative, fresh and totally delicious. The owner/chef made himself known at our table and was so enthusiastic about all the local Balinese produce used to create his incredible dishes, the 'Bali Breakfast' is a must. Do yourself a favour.... GO!!!"

Villa Song Saigon: "Lovely little gem"

We travelled with our family. The hotel is a little oasis in an over crowded city. Its a boutique hotel on the river. It is away from the city and the hustle bustle. The hotel staff is very attentive. There is only one restaurant but the menu is quite vast and everything we tried was really good. The hotel is very good about directing you to nice restaurants in the area if you prefer to eat out.

The Hue House: "Nice"

Its really nice place to hang around on weekend. I like the place .the food is delicious with affordable prices. The staff is very attentive towards the guest , good service. I will be back.
