Maduzi Hotel: "Hidden oasis in a city center"
"If you appreciate quality in details - you will love Maduzi. It looks like everything is made of premium materials - furniture, decor and other elements of interior. We loved wooden floors (in contrast to carpet or tiles in other hotel rooms) - it looks and feels nice. Vanity table in the bathroom and jacuzzi and coffee machine - everything contributes to your comfort. It feels very private and personal. There is no large sign on the street and the hotel is kind of hidden. There are only about 40 rooms, so there is no crowd and it is pretty quiet and cozy. It feels more personal and it feels more like a home with a soul rather than a hotel without if that makes sense :) Breakfasts are amazing and completely different story from any other hotels breakfasts. If you do not care about swimming pool, but jacuzzi will be a nice plus for you - definitely consider this hotel. Room Tip: ask for a higher floor -"Villa Song Saigon: "best of both"
"We spent 3 nights at villa song to round off our tour of Vietnam. The hotel is about 30 minutes by taxi or 20 minutes by the hotel's motorboat to downtown Saigon. For us it was the perfect compromise; avoid the stiffling heat during the day and relax by the pool and in the evening take the motorboat downtown to enjoy the best of the city. Hotel itself is all high ceilings; neutral tones and lots of nicely chosen art and books; very peaceful. Breakfast and dinner are served in the gardens overlooking the river or the adjoining dining room; breakfast is ala carte and is available all day which is a nice touch if you are only interested in relaxing. Lovely large pool which was never crowded; a small gym for those who should know better and an in-house spa; which we didn't use but seemed good value. We had a river-view room which was very spacious; walk in shower and also a bath. King size bed with a mattress to die for. Staff as seems to be the norm in Vietnam were unfailing helpful and polite. Cant think of any reason not to stay here the next time we return to Vietnam. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"Satri House: "Calme et raffinement."
"Inutile de chercher mieux. vous êtes au bon endroit. Tout est dans la recherche du détail et de l'authenticité. Pas le luxe absolu, mais un parfait raffinement que l'on trouve que très rarement. La chambre (321) est spacieuse, avec une très belle vue. Petit déjeuner parfait, lui aussi très ""raffiné"", un peu ""à l'anglaise"". De notre séjour au Laos, c'est certainement le meilleur hébergement que nous ayons visité parmi les très beaux hôtels disponibles. On recommande sans hésiter et on en profite pour féliciter l'ensemble du staff qui rend le séjour inoubliable."Cuca: "Foodies: move over to this place"
"""It is all about the taste"" is Cuca's slogan and that is exactly what they offer. We had the chef's selection menu (9 dishes) and we loved every dish. Our favorites were the smoked butterfish and the roasted pork buns. To be honest, it was a very long time ago that I used my fingers to scrape the last bit of sauce of the plate after we finished the dish but here I just had to do it; so delicious! It's a pity that they do not offer matching wines with every dish (what we would have loved) but maybe it is better not to drink wine but just water to experience the tastes of the dishes better. We loved it."Supanniga Eating Room: "Good food"
Went there for dinner for the first time. Food was simple but delicious. Pleasant and comfortable setting. Attentive and helpful staff made the experience even more enjoyable. Certainly will return upon my next trip.Satri House: "A resort with a heart and attention to details"
We stayed 5 nights at the Satri Hotel: truly a remarkable experience. The management responded promptly to email inquires and answered all questions. They walked us through the Lao Visa procedure and were at the airport to pick us up. They provided guides who were professional and helpful. Staff were amazing; food, 5 star. We appreciated the opportunity to leave a 5% tip for ALL staff when making final payment to the hotel our last day.Tugu Bali: "Entrancing trip back in time seductive and excellent"
"A quick drive apres arriving at Denpasar we bear down on this enclave with its own laidback vibe. Its got all the blah-blah yoga resorty stuff that allow people to reconnect with parts of themselves they should keep private. Entry is via a huge open foyer, supported by towering teak beams, with history everywhere. Our room is unique furnished with ancient artworks and a giant four-poster even bigger than ours back home. Dowenstairs is a private pool. Everything reeks of history of art deco. Its an entrancing trip back in time allowing us no chance to resist the hotel's seductive charms."Mie Cafe: "Amazing dinner in Cambodia-Siem Reap"
Excellent Chef! What a great and wonderful surprise! I strongly recommend! The food was superb and the service is top. Best dinner in Cambodia! It would be a successful restaurant in Europe!Glenburn Tea Estate: "It is a beautifully located property on the crest of a hill giving you a 360 degree view of all the hills around"
"This boutique hotel gives you the experience of complete tranquility, as it is situated in the middle of a tea estate surrounded by luxuriant greenery. The bird life, the changing cloud patterns and occasional rain immerses you in nature and your inner self. The staff is very obliging and attentive and the cuisine is delectable. A total experience."The Twelve Hotel: "Out of the ordinary"
Very unusual and stylish hotel. Rarely have we stayed in a hotel that was both so clean and comfortable and at the same time had so much charm. Room incredibly beautiful, breakfast very good, all very friendly there. The Twelve Hotel will remain in our memories and we definitely would choose again to stay there when we are in Bangkok. For us, absolutely perfect!Travel Asia with Secret Retreats
