Reverie Siam: "Nice stop for relax"
Travelling north of Thailand we stopped at the Reverie Siam resort in Pai. All service from check-in to check-out was attentive and friendly. Very spacious room with a comfy bed. Breakfast was very good! A perfect stop for anyone looking for fresh mountain air and peaceful serenity within Pai.Samanea Beach Resort: "a hidden jewel"
An excellent place for quiet relaxing, a small place with much personal charm. Very nice and helpful staff, excellent food, very nice premises and very good installations. The only drawback is the lack of a proper beach.Hotel Tugu Lombok: "So so good!"
"Slithered before deciding on this hotel over the OBEROI and so glad we did. A totally unique setting nd a place you could return to every year. The Manager was a delight and always seemed to pop up somewhere when you least expected it. This is not a run of the mill chain hotel . It is for real travellers who want to feel they are somewhere different. It's not perfect in some respects but that's why it is one of our favourite hotels in the world."The Apsara Rive Droite: "Lovely quiet place in Luang Prabang"
We chose to stay at the Apsara Rive Droite because it is close to the old town of Luang Prabang (without being in it) and on the banks of the river. The hotel is small but has everything you need: charming + helpful staff, swimming pool, delicious breakfast, a boat to take you across the river to the old town, bicycles and lots of recommendations of things to do. We had a great stay and would recommend anyone going to Luang Prabang for a few days to stay here.David’s Kitchen: "Wonderful french style dinner"
I booked this dinner for my father's 60th birthday. The restaurant is excellent including the atmosphere, the staff, the taste and etc.Les Maisons Wat Kor: "Beautiful old world feel"
What a serene and peaceful place just minutes away from town. Have a massage or eat lovely local food overlooking a lotus pond. Loved it and didn't want to leave. Staff were very attentive and friendly as well as helpful. Wish we had stayed longer.THE SAMAR: "Ideal spot for exploring!"
"We stayed here for 5 days two days longer than planned but it was so nice here we stayed a couple of days longer. The room was class, very clean and of high quality good shower. Price wise we got a good deal, you can get cheaper and hunt all day long for the best price but we were very happy in that respect. We ate out a lot, breakfast was good just what we needed, good evening meals too, good local food which is what we are here for! Tuk tuks were easily available and the drivers were a right old laff, took us to all the best places to visit, nothing like a local to show you around the temples better than a guide book! All in all we had a fab time and would highly recommend Samar Villa to anyone, can't wait to come back!"Tugu Malang: "Pleasant Surprise"
Spent Christmas and New Year at the Tugu and was not sure what to expect as the hotel was fully booked. However, we received excellent service from the time we checked in to the time we checked out. The staff remembered our names and made a genuine effort to make us feel welcome. Despite the size of the hotel it retains a boutique feel. The sheer quantity and quality of the antiques warrant visiting the hotel for the guided tour even if you're not resident. The complimentary afternoon tea is a great experience. The downside is, because it is popular, it gets busy and seats aren't always available. Great looking spa, never got to use it though. Will definitely stay again - off season next time though.VILLA SONG SAIGON: "Lovely hotel"
"Two nights after a long flight- excellent spa- fantastic views across the river - nice breakfasts and helpful staff. Shuttle water taxi works well and it's nice to return to relative calm at Villa Song. We would choose to stay here again and will recommend it to our friends. "Cuca: "Fabulous restaurant"
"Great restaurant in Jimbaran Bay. Very friendly (we were walking there and got offered a lift by the owner/chef who was driving by) with appropriately attentive staff. Interesting cocktail menu - I had a Sungria which came with frozen juices for ice cubes and was lovely. Food is tapas style although dishes are served consecutively rather than all at the same time, and are interesting and beautifully presented. The suggestion is 3 per person which we had, and this was sufficient for a main meal. The pulled pork and the butterfish with beetroot yoghurt are de...lish...ous! Dessert of THE best mint ice cream with chocolate. The chef ensured he spoke to all tables making the experience even more memorable. Meal for 2 with a cocktail each, glass of wine each, 6 tapas and 2 coffees came to about £80 so not the cheapest meal in Bali, but probably one day of the best."
