Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Beautiful historic hotel"

The hotel has been impressively restored with great attention to detail filled with character. Our room (The Mandarin) was spacious, very clean and airy with a large luxurious bathroom. We enjoyed having breakfast in the open courtyard surrounded by green plants and antiques. The children loved the pool. This place was perfect for our young family. We would definitely love to return!

Tugu Malang: "Such a wonderful place"

"During a round trip in Java we passed Malang and had arranged to stay at Hotel Tugu based on a recommendation from our Indonesian travel agent - and we were not disappointed!! Upon arrival we were greeted by the smiling and very friendly staff in the reception. We immediately felt welcome and 'at home'. At the same time we received a voucher for 15 minutes of (free) massage and an invitation for afternoon tea. The rooms are not large but large enough, with a nice bed and beautiful decorations ... especially the bathroom with the hand-hammered stainless steel bathtub impressed me. Even before we started unpacking we were seated in the museum-like lobby and had both Java tea and Java coffee served alongside the wonderful selection of small cakes ... in light of the easy access to coconut, the only thing I missed was the Danish 'kokos-toppe' (coconut tops) :-) Later we had dinner in the restaurant and after recommendation from the staff we had some excellent meals. In the morning we experienced the same eagerness to help and we ended up trying a number of both local and Indonesian breakfast dishes. A final observation ... all hotel managers - listen and learn ... when we checked out we got a small farewell present; - a package of the coffee used for the Java coffee, - we got a big smile and - a 'think of us when you have your next coffee'. This is so good thinking compared to other hotels which e.g. gives a Danish family 20% discount on airport transfer and a free membership of the Family Club if we come back to Indonesia with the family before Christmas. If I'm ever back in Malang I would not dream of staying anywhere else. Thank you"

Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Tasting menu that surprises me, amazing atmosphere"

"15 Feb 2017 - best meal in our 5-day trip Cambodian cuisine 2 tasting menus available Very nice atmosphere - tables are quite apart from one another, lighting is just about right so we could take great photos Good service - waiters are attentive and allow us to try the wine before deciding which bottle to get Excellent food - the appetizer (pan-fried sanday fish) was a surprise; we were allowed to swap one of the dishes from the two tasting menus I'd definitely recommend to friends - best for romantic dinners :P"

MesaStila: "Perfect!"

"The architecture, ambience, landscape, surrounding, view, amenities, facilities, service, all perfect! We stayed at the Ambar family Villa which has beautiful view to the mountains & lush greenery. I & hubby particularly enjoyed the in-house coffee plantation tour."

tugu bali: "Excellent service and homely feel"

"Absolutely fantastic service. I have never experienced more genuine and attentive service from our arrival to departure. Simply flawless. Love the maze like garden with canals and fishes. Rooms are good a bit run down, but all is made up by the fantastic staff! Well worth a visit!! World class service in a stunning surrounding. "

Inle Princess Resort: "Amazing stay"

"The location is great, the staff is amazing, the rooms are beautiful and the food delicious. We booked a boat trip with a very good driver that although he didn't speak much English, he tailored our trip to avoid those ""shopping houses"" were you feel obliged to buy something. In concluison, Worth the money is you spend!!"

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Beautiful lakeside fine dining with perfect service"

"Last night we had the most beautiful dinner at Seeds. With personalised service and attention from the owners and their extremely well trained, attentive and friendly staff, this is a perfect restaurant for a business or a romantic dinner. The delicious canoes, home made truffle ravioli with truffle foam and perfectly cooked sea bass were absolutely in keeping with the chefs’ Michelin accolades. A wonderful balanced wine list with reasonable prices rounds out the perfect meal. The architecture is stunning too. Overlooking perfectly kept gardens that undulate down to the lake there’s even a stunning water feature fountain that appears to shoot out from the lake under lights. To top it off, there’s a private dining g room on a glamorous treehouse. Just amazing!"

Maduzi Hotel: "Actually 6 Stars"

"I feel that normally tripadvisor contributors are too generous with giving away 5 stars. This hotel however, deserves even 6 stars! Good price, very nice and spacious rooms, fantastic kitchen by Japanese chef. Delicious breakfast with many choices you don't see anywhere else. Very nice and attentive staff. Flexible check in / check out times. Free wifi Free minibar and free coffee/tea room service. You rarely see a hotel like this!"

Tugu Malang: "Fijn"

"Het is een groot hotel. Een groot deel wordt enkel gebruikt bij feestjes/evenementen. Leuk en mooi om eens door te lopen. Het hotel heeft een zwembad om even kort af te koelen. Geen zwembad om heel de dag aan te liggen. Eten is er prima. Zeer uitgebreide keuze menu's voor het ontbijt! Stayed March 2017, traveled solo"

Tugu Bali: "Beautiful Tugu"

There is a delightful languor that hangs over the Hotel Tugu. Canggu is laid back and beachy and casual but the hotel exists in its own little bubble of languid splendor. It takes a little while to surrender yourself to the requisite level of sensual abandon to truly appreciate the place, but try. A cup of ginger or cinnamon tea served in a celadon green tea cup on the veranda whilst you nibble delicious Balinese sweets, a swim in the sparkling pool adorned with fountains or (if you are lucky enough) a refreshing plunge in your own private pool, a long shower or soak in your semi open-air bathroom, while the carp in the adjoining pond look on, a short nap in the enormous four poster teak bed followed by an Arak Exotica as the sun sets over the beach and you should be suitably in the zone. If you are feeling moderately adventurous you can wander around the grounds and appreciate the architecture, art and antiques or poke around the cool, dark museum shop for treasures. It's a gorgeous, delightful, sexy place. I was well looked after.
