The Apsara Rive Droite: "Highly recommend"

Review by: ozkrisc | Source: Trip Advisor
Our family of 4 stayed here for 5 nights in total, 2 and 3 nights on either side of a tour. We loved this hotel. Mr Hann was exceedingly helpful and all the staff were really friendly. We were able to leave our luggage at the hotel during our tour. We had very efficient airport transfers. We felt like we were staying in our own private house, it was very peaceful. The pool is a great size. We liked the location on the other side of the river. The little boat is always at the ready to transfer across, which adds to the charm of the hotel. Our room was a great size, with a large balcony overlooking the river. It has all amenities including bath robes and mosquito repellant. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order. We used the hotel bikes a couple of times which was a great way to see the town. I got up early to see the monks seeking alms and was the only tourist watching (from a respectful distance!) as they passed by the hotel. I would definitely recommend this hotel as a great place to stay.

Villa Song: "A perfect retreat after the trip"

Review by: Kathlene C | Source: Trip Advisor
Our two nights at Villa Song provided a relaxing start to our ambitious trip. The hotel is stylish, airy, comfortable and as lovely as it looks in the photos. We especially enjoyed breakfast on the banks of the river -- delicious, hearty Asian or Western options accompanied by an entertaining view of the boat traffic passing by. The hotel staff were exceptionally accommodating and kind (we had a member of our small group with a foot injury and they switched her to a larger room on the first floor at no extra charge). The showers are outstanding, the amenities top notch and they're generous with the bottled water (and the free minibar). If it was possible to give six stars, I would :)

Sandat Glamping Tents: "wonderful place"

Review by: Stephen L | Source: Trip Advisor
Sadly we could only stay one night, we will definitely be back. Tasteful and top quality in every respect. We felt relaxed after one day like we'd been there a week! The staff were lovely, friendly but unobtrusive

I have spent few nights there with group of my friends from Australia and Phnom Penh. We've enjoyed our stay very much, real Khmer villa accommodations, great pool, great local foods and friendliness staff is another plus to make this property stand up the most popular in Battambang town. I have no hesitate to come back again with my family and highly recommended this property to all kinds of traveller.

Review by: thibaut g | Source: Trip Advisor
We stayed there with my girlfriend and we had such a wonderful time. The hotel is perfectly located in the midle of the old town. It is a beautiful place, with great service, The breakfast was fantastic, while their restaurant is also very good for dinner, if you are ready to spend a bit more than in the city restaurants, would definitely go back there

David’s Kitchen: "Unexpected fine dining in Chiang Mai"

Review by: katherined499 | Source: Trip Advisor
We dined at DK at the recommendation of our Audley Travel agent. He called it, "the best restaurant in Thailand" and we couldn't agree more. Not only is the food plentiful and delicious with beautiful presentation, but the ambiance is elegant and the personalized attention - inclusive of 2 visits from David and his wife - surpasses expectations (even for fine dining). The menu is diverse, primarily french, and the selection of wine by the bottle or glass is extensive and pairs well with the menu options. We regularly dine out in Washington, DC and DK is on par with the finest restaurants in DC.

Tugu Bali: "Didn’t Want to Leave"

Review by: WanderingRedheadCher | Source: Trip Advisor
From the second I arrived I knew this would be a special experience. The greeting was first class. Our room was one of the Dedari Suites and couldn't have been nicer. The attention to detail is impressive. I loved all the thoughtful decorative touches that were so very Balinese. The bed was huge and comfy. I loved the partially outdoor bathroom and the lemongrass scented products, so beautifully displayed. The customer service was impeccable. The staff were all wonderful and helpful. The food was outstanding, especially the breakfasts, which were served anytime and anywhere. The property itself is stunning and right on the beach in a prime location in Canggu. The hotel is practically a museum and is fun to wander through. I spent 4 nights here and would definitely come back. This is one of the most memorable hotel stays I ever had!

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Amazing and unique"

Review by: Saroj A | Source: Trip Advisor
This is one of the best places we have stayed at. The Floating tents are so unique, in a very tranquil and beautiful location. Everything about it was different. We felt very special, as the service was very personal and nothing was too much trouble. The food and all amenities were very good. The 'swimming pool' is the river, which was brilliant as it was clean and calm with access from each tent. I just wished we had stayed longer. Thoroughly recommend this.

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Best Restaurant in Yangun"

Yandabo Home: "Great! Wonderful! Brilliant!"

Review by: Alison W | Source: Trip Advisor
"This is a small hotel right on the river. It's nestled among trees which does mean the inevitable wildlife around you (although we didn't see mosquitos!). The room we had was huge and wonderfully well equipped. The terrace area was comfortable and peaceful. The staff were very helpful and friendly (not always visible but never very far away). For a two night stay to see the villages it is a great base."
