The Village House: "Rest and repose, eco-luxe style"

Have stayed here numerous times, never disappointed. Keep it up, Village House Team! Facilities are clean and spacious, quiet areas hidden away here and there for thinking or writing. Excellent food, and a pretty well-stocked recreational room. No children here, so the pool remains civilised at all times... Am looking forward to my next visit already...

The Island Lodge: "Great Place to stay in the Mekong"

Spacious and attractive bungalow room with views over the lovely garden. Great swimming pool overlooking the river and attractive open restaurant and bar. Food is good and reasonably priced with a range of French and Vietnamese dishes. Staff and proprietor are welcoming and friendly

muang la: "Wonderful find"

"This amazing retreat is worth the 5 hour road trip from Luang Prabang. We only stayed 2 nights. Would loved to have stayed longer. The food is wonderful. The taster menu couldn't be better. All of the staff are warm and welcoming. Couldn't have hoped for more. "

Labyrinth: "Blown away experience"

It was a very pleasant dinner experience we had! We were looking forward to the next dish being served and each dish just keeps getting better. Recommend this place for anniversary, or a romantic dinner.

Reverie Siam: "Incredible day and night"

"My boyfriend surprised me with a night at this beautiful place for our anniversary. I cannot quite begin to describe how amazing it is! The whole resort is decorated in a gorgeous 1920's pastel theme. We stayed in a private villa, the bed was incredibly soft and comfy, the bathroom was enormous with a great shower and we even had our own private jacuzzi! The staff were so friendly and attentive, never letting our wine glasses become empty. The food was outstanding, we ate lunch and dinner at the restaurant- the tapas is beautiful and my lamb shank at dinner was cooked to perfection. They have a bar down by the river which was my favourite aspect of the whole resort, at night the entire bar and garden was lit up with hundreds of tiny fairy lights, it really was beautiful. We spent the day by the pool which was gorgeous and tranquil. The only tiny downside is that I think there may have been slight drainage problems-the drain by the toilet in our bathroom smelled quite bad and ended up making the entire villa smell a bit funny. This was only a small issue though, and I absolutely cannot fault anything else. Thank you so much to the team for making our stay so special, I will never forget it. Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"

The Cabochon Hotel and Residence: "Lovely Boutique Hotel — Very Well Located"

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cabochon over Christmas. The hotel is small and styled in the old colonial manner. It's located in a retail/residential area of Sukhumvit Road and is set back a bit from the main road, so was very quiet. Breakfast was excellent -- both buffet and hot menu items are offered. We ate at the hotel restaurant one evening and the food/service there was excellent as well. Reservations for the restaurant are recommended if you're there during a busy time -- it appeared a number of the other diners came from outside the hotel. All emails setting up the initial reservation were answered promptly and thoroughly, and the car from the airport to the Cabochon, arranged with the hotel prior, was there waiting for us -- even though we ended up being delayed several hours. The car is worthwhile if you're arriving in the middle of the night, as we did. If you arrive during regular hours, you can take the train to the Phrom Phong stop, which is an easy 5 to 10 minute walk straight to the hotel. If you take the train from the airport, you would need to make one change, and carry bags up/down stairs at some point. We had a top floor room which was spacious and clean. Bottled water was provided daily, which was appreciated. The rooftop pool was small but lovely, with a beautiful view over parts of the city. The easy walk from the hotel to the sky train stop was very convenient as the sky train takes you all over, including to the stop for the Chao Phraya tourist boat, which in turn takes you all along the river to the beautiful temples, Chinatown, etc. All the hotel staff were very polite and helpful. Our only small suggestion would be to increase the wattage in the rooms -- the lighting was pretty dim and a little extra light in the evening would be helpful. We would love to return to the Cabochon on a return visit to Thailand, and would recommend it for both families and couples."

The River Resort: "Les pieds dans le Mekong !"

"Très belle situation sur la rive ouest du Mekong a Champasak. Les chambres au 1er étage des bungalows avec vue sur le Mekong sont incroyables avec leur terrasse et le lit face à une grande baie vitrée qui permet d'en profiter même au lit ! La douche extérieure située à l'arrière de la chambre est très agréable. Deux piscines l'une ombragée, l'autre plus dégagée permettent d'avoir le choix. Très beau jardin avec une petite rizière située à l'arrière. Restaurant correct mais sans saveurs d'exception. On peut arriver à l'hotel via le Mékong (surtout si vous arrivez pas la rive est)"

Les Maisons d’Itac: "A peaceful place"

"A good place to stay with friends or a family. I lived in the house for 6-8 guests. Rooms are airy. A peaceful and very quiet hotel for a relaxing vacation. Nice food, wide list of beverages. Comfortable bed. Private water pool, CCTV cameras. There are no TV, hair dryer. WI-FI is slowly. I would be happy to live there again! Stayed March 2017, traveled with family"

Nimmu House: "Charming and excellent"

"We stayed fro one night in a tent which was extremely comfortable. The food was also good and the entire property has great ambiance and style. The room was a little noisy in the morning because its in a village and you can't really sleep in late which is also fine in ladakh. The garden and the courtyards are great to sit and relax in. Would recommend this property for sure for a few nights at least. Wonderful experience overall."

Supanniga Eating Room: "Fab authentic Isaan food, in comfortable premise"

"It's easy to find average thai food in Bangkok, but this place has consistently served up high quality Isaan food, in an atmospheric building with super helpful staff. It's not cheap but as varied and interesting as street food It's tough to find - go to thong lor and the up the Soi about 400 m. It is just before the 8ight shopping centre. You have to look hard as it is Narrow, 4 storey Building with the sign hidden by power cables in the street Book a table as I was disappointed once - this place is very popular with Locals and expats especially at weekends The food is derived from Isaan favourites and put together by grandma! I can say that everything we tried was outstanding. Particular favs were the Isaan sausage, fab red and green curries, noodles. One friend said this was the best restaurant he had ever been to - big call. Enjoy"
