Tugu Malang: "Tugu or not Tugu? Gu! And quickly!"

"If we had to give an example of what a dream hotel would be, well... the Tugu Malang would come in handy! The crazy dreams of an art lover reside in this hotel where you feel at home very quickly. The decoration is just unbelievable, and would deserve a special edition of any decoration magazine. The deluxe room we had was very nice. The staff is very friendly and efficient, even if you are not staying in a suite. The cycling tour with John is perfect! The complimentary tea + + is fab! The swimming pool is great! The guided tour is very interesting. Go! You won't be disappointed!"

The Island Lodge: "Nature and Charm"

We spent 3 days together with my husband, far from the busy life. The place is very natural and authentic along the Mekong. The hotel is quiet and charming. The French and Vietnamese food is delicious. Michel, Françoise and the staff are very professional and costumer focus. Amazing :-)

Muang La Resort: "An amazing experience"

A charming hotel, beautiful setting and very attentive service. The rooms are spacious and beautifully furnished. The hotel staff offered us not just terrific hospitality but also a glimpse into the local life. We spent three unforgettable nights in the hotel and will certainly return , one day, not just for the warmth of the staff but also for the excellent dishes prepared by the chef Mme Phat and her assistants.

The Cabochon Hotel: "Honeymoon visit"

We stayed here for 2 nights to start our honeymoon. It was super cute. Great location and staff was awesome. Breakfast was nice and we had a nice air conditioned room. The only downside was no bath tub, only shower, but its cool, we were happy! Would love to stay again!

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Full of Love"

"As their website states the husband and wife team that owns and operates this restaurant are full of love of everything and it shows in the food that they serve, the ambiance and comfort of the restaurant and the many good causes they support. When I emailed the restaurant to book a reservation here is the response that I received: ""Thank you so much for your reservation. We will set up a nice table for you on terrace. Thank you so much. With best regards, Lin Lin"". Right from the start I had no doubt that I had picked a great place to dine in Yangon. Felix is a Michelin Starred Chef who has worked in many restaurants in Europe and his wife and partner Lucia is a wonderful hostess and manager for the restaurant. Lucia came by our table several times during our dinner to visit with us and we had several amazing conversations with her about their history as husband and wife in the restaurant industry. We learned from Lucia that she and Felix decided that they wanted more than what Europe had to offer and traveled to Malaysia to open a restaurant there and then continued on to Myanmar where they found their dream location. The food that they serve at Seeds is absolutely outstanding, made from very fresh local ingredients and the servings are generous. Between each course we were provided with small snacks that were also amazing. At the end of our dinner we were inundated with incredible desserts even after saying that we could not eat any more food. We took what we could not eat back to our hotel and we had a wonderful treat for the next day. During our conversations with Lucia she explained how much they love supporting the local farmers, the local meat producers, the local people and also the community of Myanmar as a whole. After leaving Yangon my wife and I have talked about Seeds a lot, how wonderful the food was and how wonderful and giving Felix and Lucia are. We hope that everyone who visits Myanmar will include dining at Seeds during their visit for the great food that they serve, the great causes that they support and their love of everything that they do."

Rachamankha: "Lovely romantic getaway"

We had a lovely stay at Rachamankha! The food at the restaurant is wonderful- the included breakfasts are really a treat to start your day. The hotel itself is beautifully decorated and landscaped. Rooms are spacious and airy with high ceilings. It's easy to spend an afternoon relaxing by the pool or in the library just soaking it all in. The location is also quite good- easy to walk around and see the sights. Would definitely stay here again!

Rachamankha: "A haven of peace and tranquillity"

"Simply stunning hotel - design, decoration and the gardens. All these coupled with the good service made our experience an exceptional one. Breakfast at the beautiful courtyard was a great start to each day. And dinner at the hotel restaurant was accompanied by live lanna music - soothing and relaxing. Would highly recommend this hotel for anyone who wishes to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. We will be back!"

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Exceptional service"

The waiters were very helpful and explained in details on the dishes. Food was delicious and well prepared. Atmosphere was good. Chef personally greeted us a few times at the table and even walked us to the door when we left.

Glenburn Tea Estate: "Reminiscent of the Raj"

"I visited the Estate in May 2015 for a week with my family. The welcome drink at the airport and Break at a scenic location overlooking the confluence of 2 rivers with tea, muffins, sandwichs served in typical English style were a delight and set tone for a very different vacation. The Estate (1600 Acres, i was told) is nestled on a hill top and the view is just incredible. We managed to see the Kanchanjunga for 15 minutes on the day we came and thereafter, it remained cloudy during our stay The Food is very good, the tea is on demand (u can order any type u want.. n number of times) and the dinner is a formal sit down affair in the dining hall. They have a log house at the riverside .. the drive, fishing and food again is worth the time. For the excursions to city etc, u get a Scorpio with a driver, attendant in proper uniform who takes care of the food, water, logistics, toy train tickets, etc... u dont need to move a finger. Everything taken care of .. professionally. Visit their tea factory .. nice place to see how tea is made. All in all ... a great place to sit back, get pampered, enjoy the view, have tea and realise that you have been drinking apology of a tea all this time. Fantastic place ... great staff. Oh .. yes .. they still use cutlery from England."

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Amazing experience"

"It was my first time to go ""glamping"" with my family and we have certainly set the standard very high by staying at 4Rivers. The rooms/tents were phenomenal - they were very well kept and had everything we could possibly need to have a comfortable rest after a day's adventure. The food was also great - the best we had in Cambodia! The service was fantastic - polite and gracious at every turn - from front desk, to housekeeping, to the chef and to the manager - everyone made sure that we had a lovely stay - and that we surely did. We were also fortunate enough to meet some of the elders from the local community and were able to better appreciate 4Rivers' strong corporate social responsibility. Needless to say, we had a memorable and amazing experience and can't wait to be back."
