MesaStila: "A truly beautiful experience"

Review by: Emilio1972 | Source: tripadvisor.com
"We very much enjoyed our 3-day stay at MesaStila. We booked the Borobudur package which was a good choice as it took us on a private trip with private expert guide to the temple. The hotel employed driver took a nice scenic route which added to the experience and despite rain we had a great half day. After this we enjoyed the 'Arabian Nights' package in the spa which was truly relaxing. We also joined the power walk which was a fairly leisurely walk through the local area and village. (...) I would like to express our specific gratefulness to host Lia who is a shining example of how to deliver an excellent customer experience. Every time Lia saw us she asked about our well being, our previous and planned experiences during our stay and she did a wonderful job educating us during the plantation tour. My wife and I travel a lot for both business and leisure but we do not think that we ever came across such a great host as Lia. All in all I definitely recommend this place, you will love it!"

Review by: pat310155 | Source: Trip Advisor
Everything from team reception, through spa trials, surounding gardens, restaurants, was a dream. Coctails weere impressive and delicious, food once for lunch and onece for dinner was outstanding. The decoration is amazing and comfortable, very cozy at same time. Pity being on biz trip that I dint have much more time to enjoy full relaxation apart from a candle treatment which was very cool and efficiently relaxing at the spa. I'll be back

Villa Song Saigon: "Magnificent hotel and fantastic staff"

Review by: amyandm0 | Source: Trip Advisor
Villa Song really is an impressive hotel, set in pristine grounds on the banks of the Saigon River in District 2. My family and I had the most divine stay, which coincided with both of my parents' birthdays. In addition to the accommodating staff who were considerate of my family's needs, my parents were treated like royalty and were each presented with a beautiful bunch of flowers and a cake at breakfast. The rooms were fabulous and plush, the free mini bar was a really nice touch. We took the extremely convenient shuttle speed boat to the centre of town along the Saigon River and we also enjoyed an afternoon relaxing by the pool in luxury. Highly recommended place to stay, thank you so much to Ms. Thuy and all the staff for helping to make our stay so memorable.

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "A Lodge with a View and so much more"

Review by: Christel W | Source: Trip Advisor
"This was my second time at TMPL, and for me TMPL is first of all about this magnificent view. The place itself is so beautifully built, that no matter which way you turn, you are always able to enjoy the spectecular view on the Anapurna mountain range and at the same time feel included in nature without being intrusive. A result of the environmentally conscious approach by its owner Marcus Cotton. The rooms are inviting - spacious, comfortable and in decor beyond any short lived fashion, which can at times be overwhelming. So I felt instantly at home. And the food was just delicious, home made from their own organic garden. It was a treat to chose whatever you wanted, because the guest's well being had priority. The staff is very well trained, attentive, efficent in a gentle way, making you feel very welcome. I thoroughly enjoyed Marcus' warm and generous hospitality sprinkled with a lovely sense of british humour. It was a truly wonderful stay for me and I will be back for more as soon as I can. Stayed January 2017, traveled with friends"

"Very nice small hotel (10 rooms) next to a tributary of the Mekong and hot springs pool and water (enough) hot for locals and hotel guests, 2 small private pools of hot water, 1 beautiful pool with private access to a river island with bars, etc. etc.!

Manda De Laos: "Great food, stunning location"

Review by: jojomartin | Source: Trip Advisor
"This place serves great food, but the view is simply out of this world. Sit by the pool if you can. The staff spoke excellent English and the management is French. Their professionalism shows. This simply is an excellent choice to eat great food and make happy memories."

Tugu Lombok: "Quirky and Charming"

Review by: TootlepipSussex | Source: tripadvisor.com
What a delight the Tugu is. My husband and I had 3 nights here in a Bhaghavat gita suite. This could not be faulted, with its unusual outside bathroom and superb view to the beach it was lovely. The staff are charming, helpful and keen to make your holiday the very best for you. Being able to eat dinner wherever in the grounds or on the beach watching the fisherman walking at low tide catching squid was a unique experience.  We took a trip in a horse and cart round the local village and saw the sunset at another beach (the one at the Tugu is for sunrise!). The beach is amazing and with the Gilli isles in sight, the view is lovely. The whole place is very relaxed and I would say they have the recipe just right. We loved it and can't wait to return.

Villa Song Saigon: "Amazing"

Review by: Tim S | Source: Trip Advisor
This is the best hotel I've ever stayed at. From the food to the great staff, I couldn't ask for a better experience. We were greeted by the manager and staff with the utmost charm and led to an incredible room. The pool and the restaurant were amazing as well. If you're looking for a place to stay that is quiet and beautiful, choose Villa Song.
