Villa Song: "Wonderful!"

We stayed here for four nights and loved it. It's location out of the hustle and bustle of downtown Saigon is perfect and if you need to get downtown they have a shuttle boat that will take you (and it is a lovely ride along the river). Accommodations were luxurious and well worth the price. The pool was beautiful; service great; lovely breakfasts. You can't find a better place!

The Cabochon Hotel: "Lovely boutique hotel, very personal staff"

"We had an excellent stay here. From the moment we arrived we felt totally taken care of. For example, on our last day we had an early check out and had to go catch a flight, and our luggage was loaded into a cab and we were given bags of breakfast to go. The staff here was incredibly friendly and they made our stay very special. The building itself is very thoughtfully decorated, and you can tell that a lot of attention went into the small details. The pool on the roof offers a lovely respite from the heat, as does the gin and tonic bar at happy hour. The neighborhood is also quite nice. There are a lot of really nice places nearby to eat, and for all budgets. (One of the fanciest is called Bo.Lan and it is amazing.) The public transportation is also quite close, so in our short stay we were able to do some of the main tourist attractions as well. It was nice to come back to a lively neighborhood for dinner and drinks, and have so many options near the hotel. We had a great time on our honeymoon here! Highly recommended!"

Maison Polanka: "Wonderful"

Absolutely perfect. Great room, wonderful staff who were helpful in every possible way, food that was as good as any in Siem Reap. The location a little outside the main tourist area is a plus: most good stuff isn't in the center of town. The free bikes were nice. Lovely swimming pool too! It's a fantastic facility and we had a memorable vacation.

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Peaceful with commanding views"

While the drive up to the lodge is challenging, the lodge itself is an oasis of tranquility. Excellent service by the staff (Jhalak was always present to answer questions), and nothing is challenging for them. There are killer views from almost everywhere, and you can spend your time just gazing !! You can see the Annapurna and Macchapucchare ranges from the lodge, with the sunrise views being particularly awesome (we didn't mind getting up early to see it, especially since there was a pot of tea waiting :-) ). We undertook a short trek, and had a very knowledgeable guide about the flora and fauna that we encountered, as well as the region as a whole. The rooms are clean, and the food, both continental and Nepali, are great ! Marcus is an exceptional host.

Glenburn Tea Estate: "A piece of paradise"

"The Glenburn tea estate is in the most beautiful place on earth. On the first day we arrived to a warm welcome and I sat in our room looking over the tea gardens with the Himalayas rising majestically up in to the sky beyond I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Will and Faye were the perfect hosts and Parveez is the most enthusiastic person I have ever heard talk about tea. We learnt a great deal from him and can't wait to stock their delicious Darjeeling tea. We were looked after magnificently by all the staff, (especially Mandeep) and our guides were friendly and helpful and being local were a font of knowledge on all the wildlife and fauna and the ways of life for the people on the estate. We even joined in a game of 'Housey Housey'(Bingo) in the streets with the locals! Every evening we had supper around the large dinning table with the other guests and it was like a special dinner party. We met a wide variety of people from all corners of the globe and it was a lovely way to make new friends. It did not feel like a hotel but more like a home where you were always welcome and nothing was too much trouble. This is a hotel that everyone should have on their bucket list and I just hope we can return again one day."

Villa Song Saigon: "Top Boutique Hotel"

Our trip to Vietnam concluded with three nights at the Villa Song a delightful French Colonial Villa converted into a five star hotel situated next to the river. Everything about this hotel oozes class and the staff, food and accommodation were excellent. The hotel has its own motor launch which we took advantage of to visit the floating temple, a great experience and not to be missed, add to that the complementary shuttle service to the centre of Saigon, the free mini bar and breakfast availability at any time of the day and really I can't imagine there is a better place to stay if visiting Saigon

Chakrabongse Villas: "Fantastic stay"

Beautiful peaceful oasis in the middle of noisy Bangkok. We feel lucky to have found this place and can recommend it to everyone, especially those who like to have a more genuine experience of this unique city rather than staying in the big chain hotels. Very clean, neat and pleasant place.

Villa Song Saigon: "Villa Song"

"Delightful spot on the Saigon River. You get away from the noise and crowds of the city. Breakfast on the terrace is perfect. Rooms are good value. Dinner was good but expensive for what you get. The chef needs to be more innovative if they ant to charge these prices. The location alone does not warrant them, though it is a great spot. Staff charming. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

Samanea Beach Resort: "Great place"

The pier is the star attraction, best place in Kep to experience sunset and because of the small amount of rooms available the resort is never crowded, there are always available beds around the pool. All in all affording a feeling of exclusivity rarely experienced at larger resorts.

Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Small family run hotel"

Lovely stop on our travel through Cambodia. Food was excellent and rooms lovely. The pool area was being tidied when we were there so hopefully this is complete now. Loved the deep fried flowers we received with our drinks.
