Reverie Siam: "All you need to relax in style"

"I stayed here with my wife for 3 nights and must say that it was a very pleasant experience. From beginning to end excellent service and very good professional staff/personel. It's a retro style resort with a tasty tappas restaurant. Good bartenders and the food is excellent and fresh. We felt very welcome and the breakfast is the best we had in Thailand. 2 dishes to choose from and fresh juice and good coffee. And refills all the time! The room was perfect, bed was big and comfortable. Fresh bottles of water and fresh towels every day. Swimmingpool is nice and calm. Free transport to center of Pai (fun in the evening). Also good live music at the river bar and in the restaurant. The whole experiance is great and relaxed. That's the holiday feeling! Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

Cuca: "Fabulous"

Best food and staff . Great interior or watch kitchen working and eat . Very professional went three times

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Excellent"

We were a bit reluctant to go as it was 40 minutes from the hotel in the awful Yangon traffic, but it was superb and well worth it - despite the restaurant having a party of 100 Swiss pensioners there as well! The food and service were terrific.

Satri House: "Attention to Detail"

"The Satri House setting is welcoming, elegant, and most comfortable. The quality of all offerings (lovely grounds and statuary, water features, open-air restaurant, and rooms) is evident at first glance. The staff present a sincere attitude of kindness and concern to guests and strive to fulfill any possible requests. Be sure to ask to use the free bikes for a special view of Luang Prabang. Room Tip: We made no requests for a special room and were quite pleased with the hotel's choice for us."

Jing’s Residence: "Live like a weathly merchant in Ancient China! The Real Experience!"

"I was a wealthy merchant 500 years ago...my home was full of carved wood and art and lavish fabrics..I had a staff eager to please my every need..I sat in my warm lush living room looking at the last bits of the sun as it set over my ornate terra cotta roof... This is a review of Mr Jings Residence..where you get to pretend to live in another time and place... Pingyao is an ancient walled city cut off from car traffic that looks and operates as it has for a thousand years. If you want to experience historical China this is the place to visit! It's crowded with Chinese tourists in spring and summer but still a must see. In a day you can do a quick tour and see the many restored museums, temples and explore the nooks and and secret walkways that make up this city. (...)The courtyards and sitting spaces laced into the ancient buildings..all your own private sanctuary in warmer weather... The restaurant chef and Jing's Restaurant staff were excellent. Unlike a lot of problems with service in China, the folks at Jing's were helpful, friendly and eager to please. A diverse menu of Thai, Chinese and western food was great. Their spring rolls were light, crispy and perfect!!! My Thai peanut chicken was sooo good! I wondered how the chef could source food in the dead of winter..but amazingly he did!My husband had pork that was fresh and savory. The folks at Jing's were always there to help..they even packed us a picnic of banana chocolate bread for our train ride to Beijing. This place is ancient, quiet and yet modern and luxurious. A must do for any visit to China! Bluntly, I would put Pingyao on any travel plan just to stay at Jing's Residence...It was that good!"

The Apsara Rive Droite: "Excellent for a very reasonable price"

"I am a creature of habits so I return to places I like. It was great to see The Apsara still going strong. It has been spruce up a big, not that it needed to (aircon in my favourite room, number 7, changed and quieter). This is a truly boutique hotel, located in the heard of the UNESCO designated area and a short walk to everything. Staff is excellent, but as expected in Lao, English can be challenging, which is part of the charm. Any issues in respect of reservation, tours are sorted out by Loun, the experienced and knowledgeable front office manager. Rooms are enormous and have a very Indochina feeling to them. Breakfast is lovely. An excellent and well know restaurant with a lovely bar is located here. A truly delight to return. Stayed October 2016, traveled solo"

Mudanwan Villa: "“ㄧ個令人非常放鬆，可以每天仰望藍天白雲、天馬行空、發呆的好地方”"

"二年多前因爲家裡發生ㄧ點令人傷心難過的事情，乾女兒推薦了我去那兒渡假散散心，果真在那兒住了幾天，有如來到香格里拉，與世隔絕的感覺，頓時也暫忘憂愁。 每年牡丹灣總會梢來訊息，送了優惠折價卷，提醒會員再去渡假（那感覺是提醒我們該回家了），牡丹灣Villa 真的讓人覺得，台灣真好，不出國也能像在國外渡假，ㄧ日五食，愛發呆、愛游泳、想騎腳踏車出遊或在圖書館看書或spa按摩⋯想怎樣就怎樣⋯就是這麼放鬆，這是我二度造訪 牡丹灣Villa ，我們全家出遊，看見大孩子們忘卻城市工作的煩惱，放鬆心情在那遊泳、發呆、吃吃喝喝，不自覺中意外的接到工作 cases ，那喜悅真是難以形容。 Stayed June 2016, traveled with family"

Arumdalu: "Isolated natural beauty"

I visited with my wife for a weekend getaway from Jakarta, and found this to be a wonderful tonic for hectic traffic and work stress. It is isolated, and the drive from the airport is about an hour and 15 minutes, which is something to consider. However, we were very happy to be met by the resort's driver, and William, who took us on a short visit to the town for local coffee and noodles, which were great! The resort itself is still relatively new, and the staff's knowledge of English was limited, but their attentiveness, service, and friendly demeanor made us feel truly welcome. The facilities are wonderful, with private (one bed) Villas with lovely open floor plan, private plunge pool surrounded by views of forest and natural sounds. The beach is white sand and you can literally be the only people on it, which is amazing for Indonesia, but there are lots of little jellyfish in the ocean, so be careful. The food was wonderful, and the chef quickly took in our pescetarian dietary preference and began to create delicious offerings for us with fresh seafood and veggies (some grown on the premises). It is pricey, but is a wonderful luxury getaway spot.

Satri House: "An Oasis of Calm"

"I must say that when we first arrived very tired after 24 hours of travelling my wife and l wondered where we were. It was dark and the hotel is just off the main road and we could not see the hotel.However on entering the hotel we were delighted with our choice.The staff were extremely helpful and the room was one of the nicest and comfortable rooms we have stayed in The whole hotel and rooms had wonderful objet d'art which added to the ambience. The restaurant was a separate building with outside verandas . We had 2 evening meals and breakfasts during our stay.The food was very well prepared and delicious although the restaurant lacked atmosphere ,most probably because we were out of season. The hotel is a 10 minute walk to the centre of town but there were plenty of tuk tuks There are two swimming pools which when we visited in April were very necessary due to the high temperature 40 plus. We didn't want to leave.A delightful hotel"

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "excellent food"

The first time to visit this fine dining of French cuisine and had excellent food and wine and cheese. It is a bit noisy as there is a party at one end . They said since it is raining they had no other place to accommodate them. We must say this is the best french food in the city so far. When the rain is over it will be a nice experience to sit outside on the bank of Inya Lake. Only if they have better music and curtains and drapes to absorb the noise, we will be delighted to enjoy a fine dining.
