Rachamankha: "Beautiful, boutique hotel, don’t expect 5 bars, a gym & 3 restaurants"
A gem of a hotel, hidden away down a side lane in the old city. No noise, 24hr security & an architectural wonder of Thai design. Rooms with covered walkways are all built round open courtyards with paths, palm & oleander trees & pots, joining them to different areas of the hotel. The pool area is beautifully maintained & the library has an old colonial feel with many interesting subjects to browse, particularly travel & architecture. Our room was quiet, spacious, spotlessly clean, with an excellent shower & lovely Moulton Brown toiletries. Breakfast was taken outside or in, waiter served with choices cooked to order. Very relaxing compared to the pandemonium of buffet breakfasts experienced elsewhere. Restaurant evening meals delicious & beautifully presented. Would definitely return & recommend.Amata Lanna: "Beautiful small hotel"
"I visited Thailand September 2016. I am behind finishing my reviews, but I enjoyed this hotel so much I wanted to make sure I shared my experience with others. The hotel is small, yet beautifully decorated, clean and vey comfortable. The staff was awesome- very friendly and accommodating, making good suggestions and helping arrange local travel when needed. Enjoyed breakfast in the atrium and the small dining area upstairs. We stayed here for 3 nights, and it was easy to get around the town either on foot or via taxi. There were restaurants within walking distance, and we were able to walk to one of the night markets. Great visit and would definitely stay here again.

This beautiful property tucked away in the Bukchon neighborhood of Seoul is an absolute gem! We had the opportunity to spend 3 amazing nites in the Rak Ko Jae, and during our stay we met Winnie, our fabulous and very accommodating host. She prepared amazing breakfastes and was so delightful to chat with. Loved our quaint sleeping quarters and the heated floors. Plus the supercool old school korean tub. So enjoyed just snooping around the amazing complex. I'm running out of superlatives to use! Also, check out the hot sauna, sweating until you cant keep your eyes open (in a good way!). We'll never forget our visit.SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Outstanding"

"72 hair pin curves north of Chiang Mainis this artsy village that had several natural sites nearby but has this comfortable artsy community tucked into the Thai Highlands. But this hotel, quite a wonderful place. Two beautiful pools, plenty of places to lounge, and food for breakfast that is high gourmet good. High cost per night compared to others but, great price compared to what others offer. Stayed March 2017, traveled with friends"Tugu Bali: "Perfect. No choice about it stay here"

The food is good cooking lesson good. Thursday night show amazing. Hi restaurant sushi at hotel is great get coco sextoGolden Buddha Beach Resort: "Paradise"
"This is one of my favorite places in the world. As soon as you wade ashore off the long tail boat that drops you off you know your somewhere special. It's a wonderful escape from work, city living and the world. There's nothing to do here but relax. A 10km long beach with pretty much no one on it and beautiful water. Small islands and mangrove swamps to explore by kayak. Beautiful beach homes to kick back in. The option of yoga in the morning and massage any time of day. Stayed January 2017, traveled with family"Glenburn Tea Estate: "In the Lap of the Gods"
"My father used to say that the third cup of tea put you in the lap of the gods. Glenburn epitomizes hospitality, beauty, quiet, rest combined with hosts who are enthusiastic and caring, facilities that are beautiful, food that is delicious and views that are incomparable. Our visit was the beginning of three weeks planned to see numbers of our 'bucket list' of hard to reach, but must see places. Glenburn is one of the top. Yes, the road to get there is a Thrill and an adventure but the deep comfort and sheer beauty soon make one not even think about it. The recent strike, which shut down the estate, made the tour of the processing plant quiet and dust free but still very educational. Would that we could return often. Shabash our Dhanyabhad!"
