Talabgaon Castle: "Iconic India"
"Beautiful heritage hotel. Extremely peaceful with helpful friendly staff. Nothing was too much bother. The hotel has recently been refurbished, but retains it's original features. Bedrooms are all en-suite with his and her washbasins and all modern conveniences.On arrival we were met by the owner who was extremely welcoming. There is a substantial pool. Food was well prepared and staff most attentive during a buffet dinner. Room Tip: Rooms are all quiet due to village location.Many first floor rooms look down on a fountained courtya..."Sandat Glamping Tents: "Excellent experience"
Excellent experience. Different from the typical hotel. Small and cozy. The hotel manager is on top of things. Total recommended place. Also take the morning to walk through the rice fields just outside the place.Rachamankha: "Highly Recommended"
Very lovely and well run small boutique hotel. Enjoyable breakfast, comfortable pool and well located within old Chiangmai. Also, we had an online Agoda rate that made the quality/value ratio excellent ($160 all in).Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Excellent place to stay! Exceeded our expectations"
Wonderful resort, perfectly located and we the most kind and trained staff you could ever find. A very restaurant we a great Thai and international menu. Rooms with amazing view. Perfect place for relaxing and feel looked after every second.Nam Bo Boutique Hotel: "Quaint hotel in a great location"
"On arrival we were invited to sit down & enjoy a welcome drink & snacks whilst checking in. We were then taken to our suite, which was unexpectedly spacious with a separate lounge/dining room & lovely hardwood floors throughout. Blossoms on the bed were another nice touch. However, the highlight of this hotel is the restaurant on the roof, which provides top quality food together with fabulous views of the promenade & Mekong. The breakfasts are exceptional with trays of pastries & fruit, freshly squeezed juices, yogurt & hot food cooked to order. We were there for dinner on Christmas Eve & Santa visited the restaurant & gave us all very nice presents. This was another unexpected treat. All of the staff were friendly & helpful and the service throughout our stay was of the highest quality. We would thoroughly recommend this hotel."Tugu Lombok: "Beautiful hotel on a beautiful beach"
We stayed four nights in a Bhaghavat Gita suite which we would certainly recommend. The suite has its own garden with a large plunge pool and then you're straight onto the wonderful white sand Sire beach. The suite also has a private front garden which includes the semi-outdoor bathroom. Our daughters stayed in a kampong bungalow directly beind our villa which was perfectly adequate and a lot cheaper! You can eat on the beach or in various other places around the site - we chose the roof of the Temple-like spa. Best to book these in advance - there is no where else to eat unless you drive for about 30 mins into Sengigi - we didn't bother as the food was good and varied, with both local and international dishes (mainly Italian). The restaurant is open-sided and overlooks the pool, which was never crowded (don't think all the rooms were full when we were there). We took the dragon boat trip to snorkel at the Gili Isles which was good fun, and we saw a turtle.SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Really worth a visit"
This is gonna be a review of superlatives. Seeds is one of the - if not the - most memorable expirience we had in Myanmar. The restaurant is relativly new and was built to the dining palace it is today in merely 11 months. The food is exquisite and unique, the service is fast, very polite and attentive and the setting is just beautiful. We took the Chef's menu and it really was a journey. The prices are in the upper class but we spent every dollar gladly. Will definitely visit again if possible.Manukan Island Resort: "Wedding anniversary"
Stayed here for four nights in July for our wedding anniversary. Oh my life, it was superb. Getting off the boat is slightly daunting as 100s of day trippers use the island. We went left and we taken to the office given a cool drink and a warm welcome. Our accommodation was breath taking. Up in the hill side,villa 16. Views from the balcony , breathtaking. Inside, large living room, bedroom and very large bathroom with usual array of toiletries. The small kitchen area and fridge, where free water and Coke are provided daily. Beach towels are changed daily. Wifi is good. The food in the restaurant in the evening is ok, although not much choice to be honest. Beer is expensive, we took our own. Breakfast provides lots of choice. We had booked the cabana for our anniversary evening, but due to a double booking we were unable to have it. This was no great loss as the cabana was on a bit of scrub land with no access to the sea. Certainly not worth the money it would have cost. We had an enjoyable evening in the main restaurant being entertained by three amazing musicians who seemed to know every song in lots of languages, they were brilliant. Special mention to chef faridy who makes amazing pasta, waiting staff Chelsea, Jacqueline, Sabray and roger the boss. We would definitely recommend here, its paradise.Les Maisons Wat Ko: "Idyllic setting, quality accommodation."
We stayed for 6 nights in a delightful room, located in one of the 3 Khmer houses located in a tropical garden, with lotus pond and a fabulous pool. There were plenty of comfortable lounges and sun beds all with sun canopies to shield us from the strong sun. The pool was a perfect temperature. The food was beautifully presented and the set menus were delicious. The breakfast choice was excellent, and served over looking the garden. Tea and coffee was available all day if the dining area, there was plenty of comfortable seating around the lotus pond and in a covered in area out of the sun if preferred. The crockery used was unique and made by Cambodian Artisans. The staff were very attentive and gave us brilliant hints and advice about tours etc. The drivers we had, were arranged by the hotel and drove very safely and we felt relaxed on our drive to Siem Reap airport. All in all a beautiful place to stay in a very friendly atmosphere highly recommendedChakrabongse Villas: "Fantastic stay"
Beautiful peaceful oasis in the middle of noisy Bangkok. We feel lucky to have found this place and can recommend it to everyone, especially those who like to have a more genuine experience of this unique city rather than staying in the big chain hotels. Very clean, neat and pleasant place.
