Jings Residence: "Boutique hotel with real Chinese character"

This is a great boutique hotel in the heart of historic Pingyao. The staff are very enthusiastic and keen to please, though the standard of English is not the same as in the bigger tourist centres in China. The rooms are around a courtyard and have been well designed: they retain a lot of original features but have modern plumbing, wifi access and other conveniences. Very nice dinner served with some style. Thoroughly recommended.

Tandjung Sari: "Wonderful old style Bali hotel"

We loved our week at the Tandjung Sari - barefoot luxury - that we didn't leave the hotel all week - except for a quick shop up the road at Biasa. And we're going back. Beautiful craftworks, hand made pavers and pool tiles, fresco style painted outdoor pavilion.

Sandat Glamping Tents: "Resort da sogno"

"Abbiamo passato una notte in questo magnifico resort immerso nelle risaie. Appena arrivati il responsabile del chek in ci ha mostrato la nostra tenda, con ingresso indipendente,nel pieno verde, con la nostra piscina privata, la tenda completamente aperta, e rifinita di ogni piccolo dettaglio e confort. Non ci sono telefoni,x fortuna,e per chiamare i camerieri bisogna suonare un tipico strumento balinese, loro arrivano suonano una campana al di fuori del tuo spazio privato e quando sei pronto li attendi. Il letto comodissimo e la notte ti cullano i rumori degli animali della foresta. Il ristorante é ricco di piatti tipici indonesiani e italiani, molto buoni,per non parlare della colazione ricca e a buffet. Il personale attento e disponibile, sempre sorridente. Conclusione: é troppo poco passare una notte... da sogno!!!! Grazie!!!!! Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"

Tugu Lombok: "Magical place"

"I remember we arrived at Tugu around 9pm. While checking in two families arrived. They were on the same flight we were from Singapore. Looking all around I exclaimed ""What a beautiful place!""... And the guy next to me replied ""It's a magical place!"" That's what Tugu is. A magical place. It's not a luxury place, it may not be the best hotel you've ever been! But it may very well be an experience you will never forget. We enjoyed the Villa, the different places where we had dinners, the beach, the excursion to the Gili islands and overall we enjoyed the people. Thank you for let us fell so well! "

Villa Song: "Trusty amazing"

"Exceptional experience at Villa Song Saigon. Wonderful staff, amazing location by Saigon River and great restaurant. The Suite was nothing to compare. Highly recommendable and will come back. Thank you Vill Song Saigon."

Les Maisons Wat Kor: "This is it"

We so enjoyed our time here! Phakdey Chhun is the manager- and a more kind and attentive man you could not meet. The location is a little tuk tuk ride to the the city center, but Mr. Dan is awesome! Dan took us around - bamboo train and a pagoda with Khmer Rougevties. He was insightful and kind. The pool is amazing as well as breakfast. The little village outside the resort is worth exploring- the people are so kind and the kids are delightful. Tip: Buy some cheap toys and give them to the kids they just love it

Reverie Siam: "Gorgeous grounds"

Quite possibly the best hotel I have ever stayed in. Stunning grounds and bedrooms. The staff here are so friendly, particularly in the restaurant. The food was very tasty, in fact we had dinner here twice and lunch once, as well as breakfast every morning (try the avocado omelette and then a mojito later in the day!) it was the small touches in the hotel which we liked. For example the bean bag cushions on the decking overlooking the river, we spent an entire afternoon lazing on these watching the world go by. Yes the hotel is not in the centre of Pai, but then most hotels and guest houses in the area aren't. Reverie Siam is a little over 1km from the walking street, and the hotel provide a free shuttle service at any time upon request. They also gave me a mobile so that I could phone them when I wanted to be picked up. One minor irritation was the dim lighting in the room, but everything else was so lovely including the free standing bath tub that this didn't bother us. Definitely somewhere I would stay again.

Manukan Island Resort: "Excellent service, wonderful view but overpriced food"

"Excellent service. Convenient to reach via Jesselton Point although the numerous boat company counters made the experience a little chaotic. Note that for an additional RM10 per person, the boat company offers return trip. Staff know the various companies very well and will contact them regarding the return trip on the behalf of guests. Upon arrival, we had to pay the conservation fee before we were brought into a small room next to the reception for registration. We booked a beach side villa which is near the two resort-run restaurants, a local cheaper restaurant and the sundry shop (selling water, ice-cream, snacks, etc at a more reasonable price). The private beach for guests is on the other side of the main building. There are beach chairs with umbrellas and hammocks. Internet worked but sometimes the signal was not very strong. Staff served us with complementary drinks and apples in our room on the first day of arrival. Room was very clean. We were lucky as we were told that the beach side villa has just been renovated. So everything was new. We received complimentary mineral waters. Breakfast was included in the cost of the room. International spread with sufficient variety. Dining at the Perahu restaurant was pretty expensive but there were no other choices at night. The selection was rather limited that we got bored pretty fast. Would recommend the burger and the ayam penyet. Room service available at no extra charges but limited food selection and there was a slight price difference for the same meal we could get from the restaurant. Very convenient when it is raining outside. Nice jungle trekking towards the sunset point. Took us about 40 minutes to trek through the forest. We could also take the normal paved road but we decided to be a little bit more adventurous. The path was clear. Torchlight and umbrella were provided in the rooms. Those were very useful when we happened to trek on a rainy late afternoon. Had a really enjoyable stay. Great for lazing around. Staff was ever so helpful. They made arrangement for us with the boat operator, Sunny Rainbow, for our return trip. We were initially told that we have to wait till 14:00. As we had two hours to spend, we went to the restaurant. An hour later, the staff came to us that a boat is leaving at 13:30. They had already gotten our bags out from the reception and were ready to help carry the stuff onto the boat. Would definitely love to visit again. Hope that more will be done to ensure the cleanliness of the sea. Pity to see so much plastics gathered near the beach at the sunset point."

Rachamankha: "An oasis of tranquilliy"

"The Rachamankha hotel is a true gem, an oasis of peace right in the city of Chiang Mai. We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights, and it was a perfect stay. The hotel is located just a few minutes walk from the Wat Phra Singh temple, and close to the Sunday Night Market. Taking a taxi from the airport takes only 15 minutes, and the everywhere inside the old center of Chiang Mai is walking distant. The rooms are located inside a courtyard that is secluded from the busy street outside, and it is very quite and peaceful. The staff is incredibly attentive and helpful, and guests are felt welcome from the moment they step inside. The architecture of the hotel is very elegant yet understated, and so are the rooms, which face the inner courtyard. The rooms have ample space, and complimentary amenities include slippers, bathrobe, umbrellas for the rainy days, fruit, and water bottles which are refilled daily. The breakfast is very good, with a buffet of bread, fruit, pastries and cereal, and the choice of items from an a la carte menu such as eggs, omelette, waffles and french toast. The quality of the breakfast and the service at the table is excellent. The swimming pool, located at the back of the hotel is big enough considering the smaller number of rooms, and was never too crowded during our stay. It is possible to also get massages in a building next to the pool, and the prices for poolside drinks are very competitive for Western standards. Overall our stay at Rachamankha was great, and it is hard to find a negative about the hotel. The price is high compared to the average room priced in Chiang Mai, but the quality is more than enough to justify it. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my fiends and family for their future travel plans."

Villa Song Saigon: "One of the best hotel experiences"

This was the most luxurious, tranquil hotel that I have probably ever stayed in!! We arrived here after 12 days cycling holiday and I just needed to be pampered for a few days and sleep and boy does this hotel provide that.. The hotel is small with very high standard setting for meals and the breakfast is all day!! Regardless of when u wake up you can have it, and it was well worth waking up for.. Loved this place and only a boat ride into town which was provided for brill brill brill....
