Jing’s Residence: "Made a big mistake only staying one night"

This place was utterly amazing! My family and I stayed here for a quick stop on our way back from Xian to Beijing. We made a big mistake not staying here longer and we will definitely come back for a longer stay. The service staff anticipated every needs we had even escorting my wife to a store to buy some local dates they served. They even helped us bargain a price. After feeling ripped off by the local taxi getting there, they arranged for their hotel van to take us back to the train station. My favorite part was sitting in the courtyard at night and taking in the nice quiet atmosphere.

Villa Song Saigon: "Great"

A very relaxing place with great gardens and pool. Excellent restaurant and choices of food. Room was very large and comfortable. Good bathroom. Out of town but still only 15 minutes away by speedboat or a bit longer by taxi.

The Cabochon Hotel and Residence: "Beautiful and charming hotel"

Cabochon is a unique boutique hotel for people looking for a place different than the cookie cutter hotels in the city. Beautifully decorated and set back from busy street, it's still centrally located and close to Skytrain so very easy to get around. Staff were all extremely nice and the breakfast that was included was a nice selection of both Asian and Western options. Rooftop pool was also a nice option to have.

Hotel Tugu Bali: "Culture and spirit in a Balinese paradise"

I stayed in the Garden suite which has a private pool and open air bathroom, along with a private garden and Koi pond...it was one of the most luxurious and lovely hotel stays of my life! Every detail was carefully crafted for my arrival. It was my birthday the day I arrived, and the staff had prepared a special cake and flower arrangement for me in my room. Not to mention that every night there was a simple yet beautiful Balinese offering of frangipani flowers with woven palm leaves and a poem on my bed. The private pool with swing was so enjoyable after a nice day at the beach, and the bathroom with private spa tub was almost like being in a private spa. The breakfast was delicious, the hotel surroundings itself beautiful and serene. Next door you have the beach and several restaurants and boutiques and massage places, and it is still removed from the craziness of Kuta and Seminyak. Will definitely return!

Cabochon Hotel & Residence: "Hidden Treasure in the heart of Sukhumvit"

Cabochon is hidden inside Soi 45. Once you reach there, it has a real peaceful and charming feel. The decor is exquisite with very fine attention to detail. They have a lovely bar and also a very tasty Northern style Thai restaurant. It is a definite place to visit for food, drinks or a relaxing night. I will definitely be back here! Until next time...

Maison Polanka: "EXCEPTIONAL HAVEN IN SEAM REAP CAMBODIA"

"My reply to the owner asking me about our stay ""Nathalie, we loved your maison from the instance that we entered the gatehouse until the moment that we looked back on the beautiful gardens as we departed for the airport.There was not an instance that disappointed and please let all of your team at Maison Polanka know that we appreciate the style and competence that they provided us during our stay. Thank you Thank you."" Maison Polanka is boutique with just 5 rooms in a walled garden setting. It is not for the budget conscious traveller and it is not expensive for the value provided. Room Tip: All 5 rooms are great and the gardens are so beautiful that I would be happy to stay in my tent ther..."

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Felt like home away from home"

"We stayed at Neeleshwar Hermitage last month (Spetember 2015) and it was an awesome experience. We arrived at the place in the evening after a long and tiresome drive from Mangalore Airport. With two young and cranky kids..we were exhausted. But the traditional and warm reception we got at the Reception hall certainly cheered our grumpy lot quite a bit. First thing, I noticed at this place was, how Eco-concious they are. They have a no plastic policy, they do not use garbage churning stuff. Their restrooms have cloth towels rather than paper ones. All fresh and white. Their place has so much of greenery. Lovely Hibiscus all around. They make generous use of the flowers to decorate the premises including their spacious beautiful rooms. When we reached our room, we were greeted by the mild fragrance of incense and flowers. Soooo relaxing.. (...) My younger 3 year old got sick one night and they made sure that we got the medicine we required, even during night with short notice. They made sure we got a see a Paediatrician early next morning. I am truly grateful for their help. Not to forget, at my request they gave me some Hibiscus cuttings to carry back home and plant. Overall, an awesome place. Will go again with friends and family. "

David’s Kitchen: "A perfect Treat"

"My wife and I were looking for a nice date spot while in Chiang Mai. While we were having a blast eating street food all over Bangkok and Chiang Mai, it was time for a nice change of pace. Somehow we got into David's last minute and had one of the best dinners of our lives. From the moment you enter the driveway to the restaurant the staff was attentive, professional and engaging. Make a Reservation in advance! The food was fantastic and we got to meet David himself. We eat out a lot and have eaten at some of the best restaurants around the globe and David's Kitchen truly stacks up against the best. The 180 day aged beef tenderloin is one of the top 3 steaks we have eaten but everything we had was fantastic! After dinner there is a great little piano bar as part of the restaurant before the main dining room where we had some delicious cocktails and listened to music. David, his wife and their team have created an amazing little place and I would recommend it to anyone! Make a Reservation, I imagine most do not get as lucky as we did with getting in last minute!"
