The Cabochon Hotel: "A Gem in the Heart of Bangkok"
"This is it! Don't come here to find the latest gadgets in comfort for the decerned business traveler, but make a visit to the past yet excellent in style and service. Enjoy the wonderful surroundings of a truly colonial style. What makes it all a really very nice experience is the personal service! Yes it is a kind of home. Your size is also comfortable as you will never get lost in a huge building, but you could get ""lost"" with all the nice decorations and artifacts probably from a personal collection. The restaurant serving a Thai fare is excellent. Also here the nice personal touch. Keep it up this way! You are definitely carving a very special place in the heart of Bangkok. Please do not be in a hurry here, as sometimes the Sukhumvit travel get you stranded. But then there is the BTS nearby!"Misool Eco Resort: "Beautiful location, Great staff"
"Beautiful villas, fronting on the sea. A very full diving program, but also wonderful coral readily accessible to snorkelers. A smooth sandy beach great for beginning swimmers and a short walk or boat ride from the main area- some villas near the sandy beach, if you prefer that. Every effort is made by the staff to make your experience as perfect as possible. A long trip for me, but well worth it."Inle Princess Resort: "Stunning"
Just arriving at the hotel is a journey itself! Sailing through the lake and watching the fishermen and the village is stunning. The rooms are very spacious, but being in the forest makes you encounter spiders and lizards sometimes. The staff is always helpful and friendly. They have an interesting dinner with Burmese music.Villa Song Saigon: "Beauty, luxury and the sunrise"
"The hotel is remarkable. Truly a villa and a luxurious one at that. The rooms are perfect and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful; always willing to take time out to answer a question or provide insight. The restaurant is located on the Saigon River facing due east. It is well worth it to wake up early and watch the beautiful sunrise over the river."Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Dining experience not to be missed"
"The setting, food and service were top notch. If you are someone that wants to enjoy a unique and delicious meal this must be on your list in Siem Reap. I saw on their website that reservations must be made weeks in advance. There were 4 in our party. There were two tasting menus to choose from and 2 of us had one menu, 2 the other. The chef and his staff take great care in presenting beautiful, unique and wonderful dishes. The price point is so reasonable that as U.S. Citizens we were blown away for what is brought to the table. The owner reached out to me once the reservation was confirmed to ask about any food allergies.I found that to be very considerate and a testament to wanting to be certain that the menu offered to customers is not compromised . The owner greeted us warmly after we arrived and the chef came out to speak to us as well as others having dinner. The ride from our hotel in a tuktuk was fun as well. As I said earlier, the setting is lovely. We all loved the entire experience at Cuisine Wat Damnak. We did sit inside by the way which was comfortable and a personal preference, rather than outside with fans. That may or not be an option depending on when you make your reservation. I would not bring children here."Le Calao: "Lovely place, delicious food"
Oh yes, and a great spot, excellent cocktails and perfect service. We’re just back from a wonderful dinner there, and very pleased. We had exclusively Lao food, and loved it. Good luck with the new endeavor.Mathis Retreat: "No words can explain this place"
"After two nights we've decided to extend our stay! It's a romantic place This place us right in the middle of the rice fields, impressive nature the only noise you get here is from the nature, green all around. We had a really good massage surrounded by nature The service is great and polite, their Terracotta Restaurant is one of the best of this area, we had an amazing dinner here. The management is very helpful, they gave us lot of advices."Sanak Retreat Bali: "The Birthday Party of my life"
"I went to Sanak in December 2015 and fail in love with it, so this time I came back with many Friends for the celebration of my 30th Birthday. The welcome reserved by the staff was fantastic! The GM Sebastian is an amazing, professional and friendly warm person who made me feel at ease and relax. The food was sensational all my friends enjoyed it. The wine list is great we finished a couple of labels... My friends commented about the fantastic SPA, the quality of the service is wonderful with nice products and very friendly staff like everywhere else in the hotel. The rooms are pretty with an amazing view on volcanos and rice fields. Spotless! what a birthday! I couldn't have wished for better. I will remember it all my life and my friends too ! Thanks Sebastian and Sanak's team!!! you are remarkable! Stayed April 2017, traveled with friends"Rachamankha: "THE BEST HOTEL IN CHIANG MAI, DO NOT CONSIDER ANYWHERE ELSE!"
"My wife and I stayed here in May for our honeymoon, it was beyond perfection! the hotel and grounds are beautiful, it is a 5 min ride from the main market and literally a stones throw away from a temple, weekend market but located just outside the hustle and bustle allowing you to relax without the noise from the outside world. (...) The staff and Hotel Manager (Paul Walker) are what really make your stay here magical, when they found out it was our honeymoon Paul and his team went out of there way to look after us and i would like to personally thank you all for being so kind If you stay anywhere in Ching Mai please make this your first choice as i have stayed in many Hotels abroad and in Thailand but non compare to Rachamankha, When we re-visit we will not hesitate in booking here again "Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Another relaxing and indulgent week spent at an idyllic beach resort"
"We have stayed here before so know what to expect and are never disappointed. From our comfortable bungalow with its semi-open bathroom to the amazing food in both restaurants, our stay was the perfect antidote to the pace and stress of everyday life at home. No request is ever too much trouble for any member of staff from housekeeping to the spa, waitors to the yoga intstructor. A week flew past, we could have happily stayed another."
