Slow Private Pool Villas: "Wow and wow"
It’s hard to explain Slow in so few words. We landed with busy city brains and two kids and we left two weeks later as islanders. The staff at Slow were amazing. I felt like they took us into this cosy family. It’s been three weeks since we left and I still miss the breakfasts. The rooms were a blend of modern luxury and traditional design. All day long the sun shone and we splashed in our own private pool. After dinner there was usually a rainstorm which the kids loved. We spent our evenings listening to the tokay gecko chiming and the crickets chirping while we played cards. We will return again and again to this island paradise.Nimmu House: "Une pause à Nimmu House au retour d’un trek au Zanskar"
"Faire une halte de 2 nuits à Nimmu House au retour d'un trek est un vrai moment de douceur. Non seulement vous profitez d'un des plus beaux panoramas de la vallée de l'Indus, mais vous entrez là dans un petit joyau de l'architecture ladakhie niché au creux d'un fabuleux jardin. Un personnel adorable, attentif, aux petits soins pour vous-qu'il s'agisse de vous concocter d'excellents repas aux senteurs locales ou de vous soulager avec une préparation ""maison"" aux huiles essentielles, tout y est pour que vous vous sentiez chez vous dans ce cadre magique et si l'aventure ne nous avait pas appelés plus loin, sûr que nous y serions encore! Un hébergement de charme un peu hors du temps à ne surtout pas manquer si vous passez par là-bas."Labyrinth: "Love it"
Wanted to come here for the longest time, even before they earned their Michelin star, but for some reason I kept putting it off. It was a very pleasurable experience to have lunch at Labyrinth. Service was great and the food presentation on point. I was bummed that they discontinued the “Xiao long bao” dessert. This restaurant is like a savory version of Non Entree Dessert. Already planning another visit next month!Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Magnificent hotel experience in Nepal"
Beautiful. Exceptional level 10 service. To die for views! Quiet get away - absolutely worth the uphill trek to experience. Loved everything about it and will absolutely return next trip to Nepal! Marcus and his team will make you feel welcome, and you will be spoiled!tugu malang: "Luxury and services are beyond expectation"
"I was there only for a day and wish to come back soon. The room was impecable, perfect with a touch of personal welcome in a card. Our room facing the front hotel but not noisy at all. The bedsheet was super clean and it was a standard five hotel services and facility. The amenities was not much but enough. Small pool but convenient enough for children. Good selection of breakfast with some a la carte menu. The hospitality is unbelievably super friendly. A typical warm small size five star hotel that you would never experience in a big busy hotel. This hotel was beautiful in a an outdated way, and you may find it quite spooky at the back part, but for some, it may be the point of attraction. "David’s Kitchen: "Great place"
The reason David's Kitchen is so great is because of the passion and attention to detail that has been put into the restaurant. David, his wife and their staff are lovely. No stone is left unturned. The food is really good.Reverie Siam Pai: "Luxury stay at Pai"
"This property is really astonishing. Very beautiful and fully equipped room, luxury restaurant and 2 nice pools. A shuttle (some sort of Rolls Royce golf caddy) from the hotel picks you up and drops you off again at the bus station. The shuttle drives you to town every 30 mins. Reception ladies really helpful and friendly. Only thing that was a bit less: the cocktails were rather expensive and more ice then Cocktail. The hotel has some home infused gins, so we had to try that one out. But after one, we called it a day. Too much Baht for that amount of drink. I guess its a bit a normal standard in this kind of luxury hotels. But that is really the only downside I can think of."Locavore: "Put Locavore on your bucket list"
"We had heard rumours that the food at Locavore was the best in Bali. I've been around...this is the best I have experienced ! Some consider it expensive at about USD$60 a head with wine but the experience of mindfully eating this other-wordly cuisine was priceless. It was my birthday and I intend to celebrate this way every year at least. I recommend sitting at the bench in front of the team of geniuses creating your experience where you can engage with them."Villa Song: "Fantastic hotel"
"Stayed at Villa Song for 4 nights. This was our first trip to Vietnam and we chose this hotel based on the reviews and we were not disappointed fantastic hotel, wonderful service and added benefit of speedboat to get to and from city centre. The room was large, comfortable and spotlessly clear. The breakfast was really good and lovely view if the river. I can not recommend this hotel enough has everything you need the only downside is it is far from the city centre and attractions. We had dinner at The Deck on our ladt night and the food was amazing. Great hotel, wonderful staff"Blackitch Artisan Kitchen: "Delightful"
Very fresh produce, a focus on flavours and great flair. We loved it, and we will be back, thank you!
