Villa Song Saigon: "Worth every penny"

"What an incredible stay at Villa Song. From the moment we arrived the staff ensured everything was 100% perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. The area is amazing, lots of cool bars and restaurants. It's about a 20 min drive from the city, but the hotel has a boat that takes you right in and brings you right back in about 10 mins max. The rooms were beautiful as was the pool area. We also had the best cocktail we've ever had here. Bar was superb. Can't recommend this place enough - will never stay anywhere else in Ho Chi Minh. Stayed February 2017, traveled with family"

Tugu Malang: "Excellent service!!!"

"The Tugu hotel is a hotel, but at the same time it's also a museum. We stayed here for 2 nights and we had an amazing experience. Because of the low season we could choose our room. The staff was incredible. No question was ever too much to answer and everything was arranged with a smile. Every staff member knew our name and the small talks during breakfast and dinner gave our stay a personal touch. When you stay at the hotel you get a free tour of the hotel/museum and a good explanation of all the artifacts. For us this was a nice bonus, because it helps you understanding some of the history of Java. There are spa facilities and we've booked the 4 hour couples retreat. It was very relaxing: massage, bath with fresh rose petals, scrubbing, manicure, pedicure, washing en drying our hair, tea,... and after all that (really took 4 hours) there was a 4 course dinner, again with some personal touches (all included in the price). What can I say about the food? One word: super! There are so many things to choose from for breakfast and dinner. Local food, street food, western food, chinese food,... Last but not least is the Tea Time Experience in the afternoon. Every day between 16pm and 17pm (or 18pm) you can enjoy a nice cup of tea with fresh made Indonesian snacks. If you stay at the hotel you should certainly try it once. Kept all things in mind this hotel is one of our top 3 of all the hotels we've been in the world! I certainly hope to visit this hotel in the future during one of our next journeys. Thanks to the staff for making this a very pleasant stay. Joni & Jens (J&J)"

The River Resort: "Fabulous location – charming hotel"

Great location, right on the side of the Mekong with two inifnity pools. Charming staff, lovely well-appointed rooms, not really much more to say. REstaurant probably a little pricey, but not unreasonably so for a western class resort..

Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Superb fine dining restaurant"

We booked this restaurant for valentines evening following many positive comments from friends who live in Siem Reap and we were not disappointed. What a wonderful place this is. We each had one of the fixed menus and the food was definitely Michelin star level, we couldn't praise the chef enough. We had a lovely dry rose wine and met the chef later in the evening. It was without doubt a most memorable evening. I had 6 courses, my husband had 7, and with two bottles of wine the bill came to 100 dollars. Thoroughly amazing! We would highly recommend a visit here.

Tugu Bali: "What a mind blowing entrance"

Pool, cocktails and beach...we were staying 5 mins away at a private villa so can't comment on the accomodation but what an awesome place for a day or evening time out...amazing!!! Their cocktails were insanely great, beautiful beach, 2 pools to choose from and very friendly fun staff on hand!!! Love this hotel space. We came back 2 days in a row, first during the day then the next evening for beach cocktails!! Both very different and awesome experiences!! Highly recommend!! We'll be back!!

Tips are discretionary and we tipped daily. They have a shared tip box, but of course you can tip individuals. We found hetaff very appreciative of our tipping and in some cases it seemed they were pleasantly surprised

MesaStila: "Historical Luxury"

"As we came into the front gate, the old time luxury greet us. Such as beautifully cared garden, antique train station, and grand colonial dutch building. If you are in to quietness and peaceful, this is you. The villas mostly are antique javanese houses. And we get the merapi view in the morning, very nice. Clean an comfortable. The rooms generally is large, even for the four of us. A bit pricy though. But it's worth it. Great service."

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Outstanding"

This place is nothing short of top of the class! The food, rooms, service, amenities, beach and general 'vibe' (coupled with a near-perfect January climate) made for a perfect end of trip experience. If peace and quiet is not for you then the Hermitage is not for you. It might be 'off the beaten track' but it doesn't feel isolated. Terrific staff. Hard/Impossible to fault.

Satri House: "Just perfect"

My friend and I have just had five fabulous days in Luang Prabang, Satri house was just perfect the hotel is just stunning mixing old charm with beautiful gardens and is just so peaceful. We had a room near the small pool on the ground floor which was very comfortable and well serviced with a lovely large bathroom. All the staff were so helpful and polite,nothing was too much trouble and everyone took time to talk to us each day. We felt very welcome and at home there. We used the spa which was very relaxing and the restaurant, where the food was amazing, but more expensive than the good places in the town and very quiet. If you want peace and quiet and the bonus of being able to walk or jump in a tuk tuk for the short ride into town then this hotel is ideal.It doesn't have super modern bathrooms and shiny TV,s or an expansive breakfast buffet with endless services. However it has wonderful staff with great service in a beautifully decorated boutique environment that more than exceeded our expectations. I know what I prefer and we will be back because of this.

le passe temps: "Back to human values"

"This place is just a little paradise in a busy life time. The hosts are sinceres, human, warm, smiling and dedicated. Their team is their mirror, they make you feel home without being intrusive. A large choice of activities and amenities are offered, you can enjoy the time passes on the beach with book and drink, or a trip in their private boat..... At night you can drink fantastic cocktails and meet your neighbours to share your life, book, movie, emotional experiences. In the ""Passe temps"" the best human behaviors can be rediscovered! "
