Tugu Lombok: "Exceeded all expectations"

Review by: TRSRG7 | Source: Trip Advisor
I cannot rate this place more highly or thank the team enough for making our stay so perfect. Tugu Lombok has been sensitively designed in keeping with the island's heritage. The resulting effect is the combined pleasures of traditional style and modern luxury. It's location on Lombok's north west coast means it is well away from the main towns and villages (although you are only ever a taxi ride away from anywhere you want to go, and the team at Tugu Lombok can arrange transportation as required). There is excellent snorkeling to be had, and coral reefs less than 1/2 km offshore. Alternatively check out the nearby Gili Islands (approximately 20 minutes by boat) which has amazing coral reefs and under water gardens (we saw turtles, sea snake, and all manner of tropical fishes). During your stay be sure to check out the excellent activities on offer. Whether visiting the waterfalls or surfing or snorkeling around the Gili Islands, all our tours were exclusively designed and delivered for us: No groups or crowds, just personalised service and outstanding experience. The food at Tugu Lombok is produced to the highest standards, with attention to detail both in presentation and the ingredients that were used. There are traditional local dishes as well as a good selection of western style dishes to choose from, so something for everyone. The spacious rooms follow a similar theme with luxurious fabrics and furnishings combined in a traditional style, topped off with thoughtful details to delight you. The staff worked tirelessly to keep our room tidy, and would remake it up to 3 times each day without ever being seen. This focus on delivering outstanding customer experience runs throughout Tugu Lombok, from day trips and excursions, to restaurant and bar team, to reception and the management team who are always on hand to assist you, to the florists and room cleaners, to the drivers and tour guides, to the gardeners and everyone else in between. We wish to thank you all for making our stay do perfect. Tugu Lombok is a magnificent hotel. But the team and customer service ethos will exeed all your expectations.

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "I am here as I write this"

Review by: Roger Y | Source: Trip Advisor
I’ll keep it short and sweet. Just come here and don’t think twice. You will fall in love with this place. Wonderful ambience and superb food. The owner said they’ve been open only for 10 months. There is no surprise why they’re number 1 in Yangon in such a short period of time. It’s wonderful.

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Quiet, restful luxury"

Review by: aditishankar | Source: Trip Advisor
"Located on a beautiful stretch of beach, the Hermitage is perfect for a relaxed stay. The staff is excellent - very courteous, attentive & helpful. It was a pleasure to be able to have all our meals by the ocean as one of the restaurants is on the beach. We had a very large room & a gorgeous open-to-sky bathroom. Definitely going back! Stayed December 2016, traveled with family"

Talabgaon Castle: "Calm and serene !!"

Review by: SmitaMundra | Source: tripadvisor.com
"Just one and a half hour drive from jaipur, this hotel is a gem, a beautifully converted 'haveli'. We stayed in the heritage suit which was upto the mark and tastefully done. Since we ( me, my husband and two sons) were the only guests at that time, the service was impeccable. The staff is very humble and courteous and always ready to assist. The grounds are vast and spacious with plenty of space to walk around. The food is also very good. The place has a calm and serene environment. It is a perfect destination for short relaxing and quite holiday. Highly recommend it."

Discover Muang La | Visit Laos | Luxury & Boutique Hotel: "Most attractive place in Laos"

Review by: Stefan S | Source: Trip Advisor
We have visited Muang La Lodge several times over the last four years (twice this year) and find it to be the most exciting place to visit in Southeast Asia. A day trip (several on this trip) to the Hmong village coupled with the most pleasant service, local entertainment at Christmas, spa treatment, hit mineral natural hot spring makes it an exceptional experience. The management and the entire staff is an absolute joy to be with while the food is TOP quality. Comes highly recommended!

Supanniga Luxury Bangkok River Cruises: "Great food and a great way to see the river"

Review by: Paul T | Source: Trip Advisor
This is definitely a very good alternative to the other cruises. It's quiet, relaxed, the food is great (and they were very kind with providing non-seafood options when asked in advance), and the glass of champagne was certainly welcome too!

The Hue House: "Excellent service and food"

Review by: Daniel Y | Source: Trip Advisor
This was my first visit to Ho Chi Minh and been to this restaurant 3 times for dinner during my stay of 5 nights there. The food was fantastic, price reasonable, excellent and friendly service from crews especially crew name Anh Phuc. My family has good time here. Appreciated. Definately will visit again on my next trip.

Mathis Retreat: "Great get away"

Review by: Shin I | Source: Trip Advisor
"If you're a couple looking for a quite & complete getaway from the loud to be lazy, then this is the place! Nice cozy rooms and the balcony will certainly make you feel relaxed. Having your breakfast with a panoramic view of the rice fields definitely adds value to your stay. There aren't much happening around & location may appear remote from Ubud centre, yet the shuttle service may solve your concerns. If you need ideas Karine will help you with attractions and tours, was a great idea consulting with her for our stay!"

Maduzi Hotel: "great hotel"

The Cabochon Hotel: "Cute and quiet hideaway in Bangkok"

Review by: IndigoViolet | Source: Trip Advisor
Super friendly and helpful staff, a gorgeous old style building creaking with history in a peaceful soi just off sukhumvit, the Cabochon gives you all you need for a stay in this hectic city. From its handy location near to the BTS to its deserted rooftop pool this hotel delivers. Breakfast is good (although personally I always like to see some Bircher muesli on offer!). We slept wonderfully here, it's quiet and the beds are comfortable.
