The Governor’s House: "Fantastic in all respects"

Stayed just two nights here but couldn't have been more impressed. Such helpful staff, element lobby, spacious rooms and excellent facilities. Will definitely stay here again. Keep up the high quality standard.

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "A unique experiece"

The Blue Mansion was a wonderful, unexpected experience, a beautifully restored house with a calm and quiet environment. Large comfortable room, good choice of breakfasts and delicious food and good service in the Indigo restaurant. It is well worthwhile doing one of the tours to learn about the fascinating history given by a very entertaining Chinese lady. We found all the staff without exception to be very friendly and helpful, but in particular Shirley (I think that was her name) who gave us lots of advice of where to go and what to do which we did - the street art in Georgetown, markets, restaurants, Penang Hill and Battu Ferringai, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for a very different few days, we haven’t stopped talking about theBlue Mansion.

Sandat Glamping Tents: "Best service – they go the distance every time"

"I can't say enough for Pak Tengo, Pak Made and the team at Sandat Glamping. They went out of their way to make our stay the most memorable ever. We were here during the month of Ramadan and were observing the Muslim fast, and needed to have our breakfast before sunrise each morning, at 4am, each day of our stay. The chef and wait staff stayed overnight everyday just to be able to prepare our meals for us, which was really very kind of them. They would go out of their way to organise anything at any time, for their guests - we had a massage for all 4 of us set up in the comfort of our rooms, with portable air conditioning upon request as well. I love the views of the vast paddy fields around Sandat, and waking up to the crowing of a cockerel, which just takes you to such a happy peaceful place, far from the madness of Monkey Forest Road and all the other more ""touristy"" parts of Ubud. Emanuela and Federico have done a super job setting up this ""Glamp"" so tastefully, from the unique bamboo structures and the trendy decor throughout the resort (I especially LOVE the ultra long table and wall of mirrors at the restaurant), and they have assembled a team of front office, housekeeping and kitchen staff well worthy of winning many, many more awards. If you've never experienced glamping, you should give it a go here, at least once in your lifetime. It's well worth the trek."

Satri House: "Lovely place to stay"

Great location, 10 minute walk or 3 min tuk tuk to town and night market. Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent pool side, dining and room service. Lovely room, four post bed, timber finish, spacious ensuite. Definitely a return visit. Thank you to all the staff. You helped make our trip to LP even more enjoyable.

Maison Polanka: "Beautiful property with the best staff"

"My boyfriend and I had an amazing stay here during our trip to Siem Reap! Everything surpassed our expectations. When we arrived, we were greeted at the airport by Francis and a car that drove us straight to the hotel to make sure it was a seamless trip. The purple room was perfect for us - very spacious with high ceilings. Francis, Cathy, and the entire staff at Maison Polanka ensured every detail of our stay was perfect - from packing us breakfast for when we left early to watch the sunrise, to giving us recommendations on where to eat in town and which other temples to visit. They patiently answered all our questions and made us feel completely at home. The grounds of Maison Polanka was like its own world, a quiet haven away from the hustle and bustle of downtown while located just 5min away. Another outstanding feature of the hotel was the kitchen - we loved all our meals there and the dishes were our favorite by far in Siem Reap. We ate basically all our meals and loved everything we had, especially the local Khmer fried rice and beef lok lak. It was so convenient to be able to come home after a long day touring the temples to enjoy a delicious meal in the outdoors dining area, prepared meticulously by such a great chef. We'll definitely be staying here again on our future visits - we can't wait to come back!"

Le Du Wine Bar & Restaurant: "Impressed"

Second highly rated restaurant of our weekend trip. This time recommended by a foodie friend. You have choice of 4-course or 6-course or la carte menu. We had the 4-course option which has three choices per course. Wifey and I chose different dishes so we ended tasting 8 dishes. Most of the dishes were yummy. So you'll have lots of options to enjoy a fine meal. Cheers.

The Village House: "Gorgeous hotel!"

"Such a beautiful hotel! So incredibly relaxing to spend time here. We loved the hammocks and reclining chairs with the view of the pool. The gardens are lovely, and the decor is really interesting. Nice rooms too! The whole place is romantic, relaxing, dreamy. The eight course ""Taste of Borneo"" was a memorable last night in this beautiful oasis. We booked a sunset wetlands tour. Gorgeous sunset skies, everything still and peaceful. We saw dolphins and proboscis monkeys, and after dark, spooky crocodiles, and an abundance of fireflies. Also arranged by the hotel, we went to the nearby cultural village. We'd cynically expected a Disneyfication but it was wonderful and very interesting. Stayed March 2017, traveled with friends"

Manda De Laos: "Delicious food in romantic setting"

This is a rather special place with a unique atmosphere. Where else would you find yourself sitting by a moonlit lotus pond listening to frogs croaking while enjoying a superb meal? The service was excellent and the food delicious. It's not the cheapest meal you will have in Laos, but an experience definitely well worth paying for and you would pay a great deal more for this quality of food and ambience in the UK.

Tandjung Sari: "Balinese beauty and hospitality"

For those seeking a Balinese experience of art, architecture, lovely gardens, delicious menu offerings, the sound of surf during breakfast, birds chirping a morning wake up, all held together by the warmth and graciousness of the staff, come to Tnadjung Sari. Spacious suites nestled in a private garden offer comfortable beds and light cotton nightshirts, a table set with a welcome bowl of tropical fruit, low loungey sofa, enormous bathtub and outdoors a shower. Each garden has a lounging pavilion begging you to take a nap or catch up on reading a good book. A beach boardwalk is convenient for strolling and great for people watching during breakfast. Convenient to all the street activities, I enjoyed coming back each time from shopping or trying one of the neighboring eateries to walk down the long landscaped private entry and knew I had comfort and bliss waiting for me. If you need bright lights and a lot of action, there are plenty in the area. Tandjung Sari offers the grace of the Balinese in a stellar setting.

Villa Song Saigon: "Cheerful Place"

We really spent a beautiful time in this hotel. The staff are always there for us, any time, any moment. They are very helpful and friendly, professional and very nice, they were always smiling and happy. Breakfast and meals at the restaurant were just perfect presented and so tasty too. Room is clean and spacious, furnished with antiques and are very comfortable. Wifi is free, air-conditioning is quiet and the bathrooms are all you could wish for. There is a beautiful garden courtyard with as well as an view to the river. Every corner in the hotel has something spiritual and nice. This is a best hotel we ever stayed with charm and has nothing to do with those big and tourists hotels. We were really happy and i hope to be back soon.
