"As someone who seen many many hotels cities, countries and places I can truly say that this hotel left an ever lasting positive impression in my head. A secluded serene place of beauty.

Villa Song Saigon: "Last destination and wow"

Review by: Thomas M | Source: Trip Advisor
"After a 20 minute taxi drive we arrived at the hotel in the evening. Our first thoughts were - very nice place but outside from the buzzeling district 1. However the hotel offers a shuttle boat service and while enjoying the boat ride you are very fast in downtown. We stayed 4 days with a break and we got 2 upgrades. The staff is very friendly motivated and helpful. The breakfast is a selection from the a la carte Menu. Therefore the food is always fresh cooked and very delicious. Yesterday evening this was topped by the dinner. Fantastic and very tasty food. A great thank you to all of you. Stayed April 2017, traveled as a couple"

Tugu Malang: "great hotel with delicious local food"

Review by: eripalgunadi | Source: Trip Advisor
"banyak orang bilang ini adalah hotel yang seram tetapi buat saya malah sebaliknya saya sangat nyaman dan menikmati tinggal 3 malam di hotel ini , tepatnya di kamar 208 hotel ini usianya memang sudah cukup tua berada di pusat kota malang , tepatnya di lingkaran dengan sebuah tugu, maka dari itu bernama hotel tugu. kalau tampak dari jalan hotel ini tertutup rimbun nya pohon-pohon besar suasana lobby dan lingkungan hotel banyak sekali barang-barang antik serta arca-arca lama, koleksi photo serta lukisan , yang paling favorit tentu saja lukisan Oei Hui Lan seorang perempuan kaya raya dengan rambut panjang nya saya senang sekedar membaca sejarah barang-barang ini,kebetulan saya memang pecinta sejarah. suasana kamar hotel juga bernuansa antik dan klasik, kamar saya menghadap kolam renang di bagian tengah. selalu sempatkan untuk sarapan atau memesan makanan local, masakannya sangat enak, saya memesan nasi Bu, pisang goreng bertabur gula merah nya lezat dan malam hari di jam 11 karena lapar saya sempat memesan sop buntut yang juga sangat enak. sempatkan juga sore hari ada kue kue kecil serta minuman jahe dan kopi di lantai 2 petugas disini cukup responsive dan terima kasih saya mendapatkan oleh-oleh sebungkus kopi hotel yang sangat baik, dan saya akan kembali menginap disini apabila saya ke malang."

Misool Eco Resort: "Beautiful location, Great staff"

Review by: gsrs | Source: Trip Advisor
"Beautiful villas, fronting on the sea. A very full diving program, but also wonderful coral readily accessible to snorkelers. A smooth sandy beach great for beginning swimmers and a short walk or boat ride from the main area- some villas near the sandy beach, if you prefer that. Every effort is made by the staff to make your experience as perfect as possible. A long trip for me, but well worth it."

Inle Princess Resort: "Where time stops"

Review by: claudesonmez | Source: Trip Advisor
"This place cannot be compared to others. You arrive with a boat which engine is turned off before approaching the hotel. Someone comes on board to lead the boat to the shore. You then arrive in paradise. This hotel is located north the lake Inle. Rooms are large,so are the bathrooms with an outside shower. It can be cold at night but the hotel staff will kindly offer to light a fire in your room which will keep you warm all night. For us mosquitos were not a problem . Just remind to take anti mosquitos product with you: you are next to the lake so of course there will be some. You will enjoy breakfast looking at the changing light above the lake before starting your journey on the lake. The spa is hidden among flowers: do not leave before enjoying a treatment there . We loved it and plan to go back."

Akame: "Must try Taiwanese aboriginal cuisine"

Review by: TaiwanWalker_Ann | Source: Trip Advisor
"Amazing dinner at Akame! A modern Taiwanese aboriginal cuisine restaurant in Pingtung, the two chefs Alex and Sky are both Rukai people, creating new styles of aboriginal grilled cuisine. Grilled quail with black garlic sauce and grilled Taiwanese pork are my most favorite. If they have mullet wine, it's perfect match with grilled meat."

MesaStila: "Exquisite Gem"

Review by: oleyaleya | Source: tripadvisor.com
This is the perfect place to relax and unwind from the busy city life. Surrounded by beautiful views of the mountains and the forests and ricefields and plantation. The public areas are very well appointed, having taken pains to fill the clubhouse and the bar/lounge with vintage, period pieces. The staff is always helpful and polite. Excellent service by everyone. We even had a private tour of the coffee plantation where we were introduced to the flora and fauna of the place, the organic garden, the coffee area and once more given traditional snacks and more coffee and jamu. One can spend an entire day just lounging by the infinity pool by the jungle. Or playing billiards in the lounge. Or walking around the extensive estate. The spa/hamman facilities and menu are also top-notch. I can't say enough good things about the place. It is a very, very gracious place full of hospitality, warmth and the beauty of nature.

Pindaya Farm House: "Fantastic"

Review by: Alon-WalkInnIsrael | Source: Trip Advisor
It was our last day in Myanmar just before flying to Yangoon and back home. It was exactly the place we were looking for after visiting and staying at different hotels around Myanmar. The location and the big hut are magical, look and feel as if inside a legend. The warm hospitality and the great food made us feel at home. unfortunately we stayed there 1 night only. Could stay there for a week.

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion Logo Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "It’s an unforgettable choice I made for my wedding day"

Review by: KeeHong O | Source: Trip Advisor
"We booked in the whole mansion for our wedding day in July 2017. It is a pleasant and wonderful heritage building you have ever seen in a small town of Penang. Every corner of the building is a treasure for us and thus we made a decision to have our wedding held in this gorgeous house. There is a few things I must highlight, besides the attraction of the house, the friendliest staff who been working hard to help out whenever we need to the smallest details and care we neglected. Daniel, the manager, reception, wait staff to the housekeeping lady who gave us the warmest welcoming and joy during our stay, we couldn't express how blessed we were to have this brilliant team there to make our wedding a successful one. The mansion been constantly maintaining their facilities, rooms are incredibly huge and comfy, healthy and thoughtful breakfast. We enjoyed so much by just sitting in the lounge or the sofa that lies in the courtyard, every angle is an appreciation to this over 100 year-old architecture. We will definitely go back again and thanks again for such excellent service."
