SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Stunning Culinary Address"

"Seeds delivered quite the fine dining experience, but at the same time, managed to maintain a cozy, home-y and hospitable atmosphere. The location is a winner. The outdoor decking is a perfect spot for a sunset aperitif, situated on the Inya Lake amongst a breathtaking garden of lotus flowers. The interior design and the table setups are simply elegant. A lot of the chinaware is custom-designed and you can really tell. The service was excellent. The entire team was really attentive, and even Lucia and Felix themselves came over to our table to make sure everything was well. We really appreciated the hospitality. And of course, last but not least, the food was exceptional. The amuse bouche of lobster bisque was delicious, so were the appetizers like the pumpkin soup with scallops, and our mains of pork fillet, lamb and beef. All of the dishes had extra little ingredients that, together, created an explosion of harmonized flavors on our palates. The truffle ravioli, apparently a Chef Felix special, was also a delightful surprise. All in all, compliments to Lucia and Felix, and the entire Seeds team."

Amata Lanna: "an oasis in the rush of Changmai"

If you believe that small is beautiful then you will love this niche hotel. Just twelve large rooms based on the old Northern Lana style - that is teak buildings and platforms around a central pool. The staff are charming and attentive. A place to chill and relax after a busy day

Villa Song Saigon: "The most decadent hotel in a peaceful location"

From the moment we got out of the taxi upon arrival to getting in a taxi to leave, the staff were all tremendously helpful, polite and cheerful. They really made everything seem as if it were no trouble at all. Our room was decadent, comfortable and a joy to stay in. To top it off, all of the added perks just made this the most wonderful hotel to spend our short time in Ho Chi Minh in: the Apple TV, the complimentary minibar and the boat shuttle to the centre.

Villa Song: "Absolutely worth a stay! One of the nicest boutique hotels and great service."

From soup to nuts, the experience was superb! Greeted by a big smile and by name upon reaching the check in desk. They were prepared. The room is beautiful and clean. Refill of the complimentary mini bar each day was a great added bonus and not expected, plus it ensured you had fresh water in the room. The pool area and pool was lovely and inviting. I spent more time in and around the pool than I do in most locations. So relaxing! It was nice touring during the day and completely relaxing when at the hotel. Breakfast time could be chosen all day -- another absolutely amazing and much appreciated bonus to this hotel. Loved the food and the setting out by the river was so nice. In fact, I imagine the food was so good that they ran out of a couple things I really wanted to try on a couple of occasions. The boat ride into town was unique and let you experience the quiet outside of the center when at the hotel. The spa/massage was fabulous as well. In short, no complaints. Highly recommended. I would absolutely stay here again!!! Another bonus: the cream puffs at the turn down service one night were delicious!!

Satri House: "Fantastic stay"

"Lovely hotel with great rooms, pool and restaurant. Only a 10 minute walk to the centre of town and the hotel allows you to borrow bikes for free, such fun! What made our stay really great was the attentive, kind, friendly staff. Highly recommended. Stayed February 2017, traveled with family"

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "A Meal to Remember"

We dined here about two weeks ago. A truly fantastic meal and incredibly beautiful outdoor space. It is expensive but well worth the cost. My only complaint would be I hate it when the owner of a restaurant stops by the tables and asks how your meal is. I guess some people might like that, but I'd prefer to be left in peace. Anyhow, this was the best meal I've had since an incredible dinner two years ago in Madrid.

Tugu Malang: "Beautifull java architecture"

"I stayed in Hotel Tugu malang for 2 days in last February, I stayed in one deluxe room in 2nd floor not the cheapest room in the Hotel. The room is very spacious,we had a welcome message and welcome drink also welcome fruit when we are check in,Bath room is very wide Bed is very nice also,I think Hotel Tugu malang is the cheapest Tugu in Indonesia especially if you are compared with Hotel Tugu Lombok or Bali. We also have dinner last night in the Hotel they have so many choices of food,I ordered some duck and my friend ordered sop Buntut Also,Breakfast also nice they have traditionall Indonesian or java food,they provide buffee and alacarte also for the breakfast,for me the Hotel is the best Hotel in Malang.

Villa Song Saigon: "Blissful place for anniversary"

"We had our wedding ceremony here 5 years before the renovation and they had added more rooms at the expense of some common balconies that used to be there. This time we travelled back to SGN for a visit and celebrate our anniversary. Booked the Art Suite and it was so comfy with river view especially early in the morning. Opted for Vietnamese breakfast and simply loved the deli beef pho as well as the rice roll with minced meat. The iced coffee milk was great. The breaky was just simply superb! Indeed the whole place is blissful especially when enjoying the breeze sitting by the river. We had a surprise anniversary cake from them too and many thanks to Ms Nhu, Freddie and Yega for making our stay memorable. What is regrettable was the Thao Dien Village now which used to be part of Villa Song is now separated under different stakeholder. We were there to take photos but was bluntly told off not to do so unless we informed the management there. Utterly annoyed with such rudeness from someone in hospitality industry."

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Neuer Stern am Himmel von Yangon"

Die offizielle Eröffnung des neuen Restaurants ist am 27. Februar. Wir konnten an einem Pre-Testing Essen vorab teilnehmen. Ein absolutes Juwel was Lage, Einrichtung und Qualität des Menus betrifft. Dies wird ein neues absolutes Spitzenrestaurant in Mayanmar, auch nach internationalem Standard. Unbedingt einen Besuch einplanen. Felix Episser und sein Team setzen damit ihre bisherige Erfolgsgeschichte fort. Hervorragende Qualität der Speisen, eine ausgezeichnete Weinauswahl steht bereit und der Service sehr freundlich und effizient.

Satri House: "A Royal Stay"

"Everything about this place was enjoyable. The former royal residence was elegant, charming and personable. You feel like staying at someone's home or should I say palace. When you arrive its like entering into a different era. The decor, rooms and grounds are all beautiful. Lots of nooks to find and settle in. The staff was very friendly and accommodating - even helped us with learning a view Laotian phrases. Hang out at the poolside bar before heading out. Very impressed with the hotel restaurant. Great breakfast with fresh bread etc. With so many restaurant choices in LP, we actually chose to eat our last dinner at the hotel and its was best decision. There is also a very good place right across the side street called Manda de Laos - expensive for LP but very reasonable and good. The one thing that concerned us when we book was the distance to the main area in LP. In reality, being a little secluded was preferable as the hotel was quiet and tranquil. We typically walked into town which takes 5-7 minutes. And if you don't want to walk its quite easy to get a cheap tuk tuk or take one of the hotel's bikes. We considered 3 Nagas but we made right choice. For recommendations in LP, check out Naga Creations. Its owned by a french expat that creates local artisan jewelry. I normally don't shop on vacation but this was an exception. We look forward to returning. To Giovanni and his staff - Kop chai lai lai!"
