4 rivers: "Beautiful place to stay!"

"A very nice place to relax and do some tours, extremely friendly and helpful staff. The tents are great, they offer good facilities, and all come with an awesome view of the river and the most amazing sunset. It's definitely not cheap but well worth the money! "

Reverie Siam Pai: "Best of the best"

"I have been to Reverie Siam for dinner every time I went to Pai. And, this time I decided to stay overnight with my family in 2 rooms. That is NOT disappointing at all. I love the place, staff, service and food. My father is in wheelchair and it is convenient for us to get to the room and restaurant. Even there is step at entrance to the restaurant, staff always offered help to carry our wheelchair when my father went up/down the steps. Staff were friendly and genuine. Service is 5-star. The guestroom is spacious, nice decorated and comfortable. There are plenty of rooms for you to put your stuff. The bathroom is spacious, they have shower room and bath tub in separate areas. Water pressure of shower is very good and temperature is stable. They don't have iron for you to borrow. But they offer to iron your cloth for free and it will be done in 5 minutes and delivered to your room. We had dinner at Silhouette restaurant that was lovely as always. The gentleman who runs the restaurant greeted us and recommended food & drinks. Food was delicious and tasty. After dinner, we went to the walking street by hotel's shuttle tuk tuk that was very convenient and when returned, driver came to pick us up on time as per their schedule. I love everything at this hotel and will definitely return for longer stay really soon."

Le Du Wine Bar & Restaurant: "Great dining experience"

A great dining experience with a good degustation menu - a unique Thai-influenced menu with great wine pairings. Sadly located in a hidden back lane in the city. I had trouble trying to locate the place and found my way walking there a little unsafe.

The Island Lodge: "Best way to ‘do the Mekong Delta’"

"I cannot praise this hotel enough. Everything about it was high end. The staff were super friendly, very good English, excellent service, attention to detail, food excellent, rooms spacious, great pool, place is spotless, what more can I say. Owned by a French couple Michel and Françoise, they have brought together everything good about French and Vietnamese hospitality. We had originally planned to stay here as part of a separate tour but I would highly recommend transferring privately from Saigon direct to the hotel and organising private tours through the hotel as they have designated tour guides. We did a scooter tour to the next island reached by a very memorable tiny ferry and also a trip to see the floating market at Cai Be. Both our tour guides Thành and Ksai deserve a special mention as both trips were about 4 hours each but a fantastic way to see life in the countryside in the Mekong and they were both really knowledgable and passionate about showing us the best time. The food at the hotel was terrific. Fish tartare, beef carpaccio, goats cheese salad, duck with a great fusion of French and Vietnamese influence, to me a fusion made in heaven. The waitresses were just great with their service and could not do enough for us in terms of service and attention to detail. There were also little things all through the hotel that were great such as home made fruit jams at breakfast. The design is fantastic with a completely open bar restaurant and reception area with piano and a lot of historical pictures and other trinkets around which add to the atmosphere. The group of staff all felt like a big family so congratulations to the hotel for me to say it is the full package for a relaxing break."

Jing’s Residence: "An Asian Oasis of Calm"

Quietly unassuming plain wooden doors lead into this beautifully crafted small hotel and restaurant. We were offered tea and honey roasted dates as we sat down to register and then shown to an exquisite bedroom with with a warm wooden floor, huge bed on a wooden platform and a perfect bathroom. What a relief to find a room with no television but with lovely pictures, curtains and furniture. Tea comes in three loose leaf varieties and a bowl of tangerines was a nice touch. We dined in the beautiful restaurant on honey and ginger roasted chicken, stir fried beef and vegetables with rice and two glasses of really excellent Chinese wine. An unusual and wonderful small hotel set within the busking car free streets of this fascinating walled city.

Misool Eco Resort: "Unforgettable holiday"

Misool is an amazing lodge in gorgeous Raja Ampat. not only is it gorgeous, clean and luxurious: it has done tremendous work to preserve the manta rays, sharks and other marine life of raja Ampat and Indonesia at large. Misool' said conservation work is crucial to protecting the astounding (and increasingly rare) biodiversity that makes Raja Ampat such an outstanding diving and snorkeling destination. I would absolutely return, and would not consider staying at any other lodge as I believe we must support conservation work. Service is likewise impeccable, including amazing massages.

Mathis Retreat: "Quiet place in the rice fields"

"Beautiful hotel, very peacefull place. All staff are very kind. Special thanks to the manager Karine who is absolutely dedicated to her guests. Few minutes talk will make her understand exactly what you expect from your trip, and so she will advise you the best excursions and things to do. "

Villa Song Saigon: "Luxurious Hotel and Great Chef"

"I've started to miss Villa Song very much. We normally have a weekend there to escape from busy noisy down town, and get relaxing after heavy working days. It was pity that our last asking to stay there on the weekend of 12-13 August was unsuccessful, because ""our"" room 203 was occupied. It made me miss the sunset over the balcony to the river, dinners prepared by Chef Kevin with lots of creative tastes and caring. I really enjoy the room with the big bath room served with nice bathtub, and separate shower, and really comfortable bed under nice temperature. Last of not least, I can tell the foods made by Chef Kevin are the best in town. We can feel his heart on the dishes, his caring for the wine pairing. Kevin and the staff always make us the most warm welcome ambiance. We really feel like home there."

Talabgaon Castle Heritage Resort: "An absolute delight"

"We accidentally stumbled upon this place while looking for a place to spend the night due to unwanted delays during our road trip and it was an absolute delight. The castle itself is breathtakingly beautiful and very well maintained. The staff is highly courteous. We were welcomed like family despite the odd hour. Our caterer Sandeep deserves a special mention here who made our stay even more memorable. The food was delicious and the hospitality that went with it was amazing. Pool is very well maintained. Room was very good and comfortable. Above all every effort was made to meet all our requirements. We booked a camel ride at a very short notice causing them a lot of inconvenience. But the camel was not feeling well. Being animal lovers, we felt extremely happy about the humane treatment that was given to that animal. The manager apologized profusely, despite it not being his fault, and did not charge a single rupee for the cancelled ride. Kudos to you Mr. Singh for running the amazing show. There is no downside. Even the slightly bad road leading to the castle is totally worth the experience. Only regret is we could not stay longer due to further commitments and therefore we are planning to visit soon with family."

Tugu Bali: "One-of-a-kind experience"

"We spent two wonderful nights at Tugu and can't fault anything about our experience. Highlights included a cooking class with the wonderful Sri and her assistant Gusti, the full and new moon massage, and enjoying cocktails and nibbles at Ji. Also, the breakfasts which we could have served wherever we liked were amazing - highly recommend the traditional Indonesian set menu for breakfast. With so many new hotels popping up in Seminyak and now Canggu, Tugu offers something they can't - tradition, a story, and a sense of feeling calm in the middle of a bit of a storm of new development. Would definitely return for longer next time. Great location too, right beside Old Man's and with so many amazing places to eat and shop just up the road. Room Tip: Hard to choose between the sea view upper suites and the ground floor pool suites!"
