Talabgaon Castle: "Travelsphere group"

"Amazing, amazing, first class. Stunning, welcomed on the first day with red carpet, marigold garland and lunch on the lawn. Food fabulous, rooms are gobsmacking, beautiful, like a dream. Staff could not be more welcoming and friendly. Slept like a dream in a fairy tale bedroom. The village before you get there is interesting and the local people and children were waving as we drove by. Loved it. Stayed March 2017, traveled with friends"

Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Best meal I’ve ever had"

I'm telling you what I told my wife when we were there - "this meal is the best meal I've ever had". Also, the price is very reasonable relative to the quality of the food and cocktails. Definitely a great choice for a classy (relative for Siem reap) dinner!

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!

Rachamankha: "Our 4th Stay At Rachamankha"

We keep returning because it is that good. Fine antiques throughout, inside and out. A gracious and attentive staff. They are extremely stealth and quiet. The theme is serenity and quiet. Soft jazz and classical music quietly plays in the background. A bouquet of two dozen fresh roses were in our room. Complimentry breakfast is served on fine bone china. No children under 12.

Locavore: "Stunning food and flawless service!"

As professional chef and lover of all types of food, I was pleasantly surprised at the outstanding quality of the food, presentation and service at Locavore. Each dish was beautiful and delicious and sitting at the chefs counter made it even better as we could see the food being made and watch the silent precision behind the scenes. This meal is in my top three restaurant meals ( alongside The French Laundry, Napa Valley and Eden Hill, Seattle) of all time! I liked that the degustation size is small, as I left full but not overly heavy. In addition to the 5 course degustation we ordered we received no less than 6 amuse bouche and a whole tray of petit fours for dessert. The cocktails were awesome. This is a must do in Ubud! Thank you Locavore, I am inspired! Leela Brett

Pindaya Farm House: "Such a peaceful place – a true bliss"

"Pindaya Farm House was our final stay on our little tour around Myanmar. We stayed 3 nights and it was absolutely wonderful! I have previously stayed at the Farm House when it just opened and was a new promising place; a lot has changed since then, hence a new review. The staff and of course the owner and manager Aye Aye are all amazing and super helpful, the place is a true bliss, the food is divine, and the garden is slowly showing its lush character. We had great drinks, great wine, peace and quietness. We warmed up in front of the fire place, we had long walks in the area, cycled around on the house’s well maintained bicycles, and we visited the beautiful caves of Pindaya, which are highly recommendable. We received helpful advice for what to do and how. The only suggestion I would like to make is for the Farm House to sort out the hot water – we didn’t have any hot water while there and given we came from Samkar where hot water was also scarce then we were getting rather eager for a hot shower…. All in all Pindaya remains one of my favourite places to visit and we could easily have chilled another day there with our books, coffee and on the terrace…. A highly recommendable place to visit."

samar: "Beautiful Retreat"

"This is review is long over due. My husband and I stayed here in April and was blown away by it's charms, service and location. Upon arrival, we were greeting with a refreshing non-alcoholic drink and invited to sit in the the sunken sofa in the lobby area. It was nice not to have to stand around and wait to check in at a counter. The reception came and handed me my paperwork while I was relaxing. The General Manager/Owner came out to meet me and explained that my original room that I had booked had a broken AC and they had offer another room for me to stay instead. All of the rooms are gorgeous, well-appointed and and large. It didn't matter which room we were but it was a nice touch that he would personally delivered that message to me. The grounds is nicely kept and looks exactly like that picture on the website, the location is a bit tucked away but it kept the street noise at bay. It was only a 5-7 min scooter ride to the gates of Angkor Wat. We are dinner there every day and the food was good, avoid the steak, as I think the beef quality in Cambodia can be a bit tough. Breakfast was included with our rooms and it was a la cart and it was very well presented. The bathroom reminds me of an old french colonial style with a claw-footed tubs. However, the amenities (lotion, shower gel, etc) was in a ceramic container. Be careful, Since the shower gel can get slippery, it slipped out of my hand during my shower and the top broke off. Upon checkout, they charged me for a replacement since they said it was imported from Thailand. I didn't questioned it but it seemed a little silly to put a ceramic container in a shower and not expect the guest to drop it on the bathroom tile. All in all, A perfect retreat to come back to after a long and sweaty day touring the temples. Highly recommend it!"

Supanniga Eating Room: "fantastic"

Still cocktails! Great list... great taste! Wonderful dining experience. Nice dishes from all over Thailand. We loved everything. Nice and relaxed evening. Great memories!

Samanea Beach Resort: "Excellent resort"

"he resort is situated at the sea shore two km from the crab market in Kep. The villas are great, with lots of space and a very beautiful bathroom. The garden is beautiful. The swimming pool is excellent, having a great view to the ocean. Service is outstanding. They offer a good selection of French wine in the bar. This is by far the best resort we have tried in S.E. Asia- and it outcompetes 5 star hotels."

Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Charming Mansion"

"My experience at the Blue Mansion was pleasant from start to end. The staff was very welcoming, courteous, and polite. Our room was very spacious, clean, and included little snacks and juices. Walking through the mansion's dimly lit walkways, having the fresh air outside your door, and admiring the architecture and detail of the decor add to a majestic feel I appreciated while staying in Penang. The included breakfast was very well prepared and the staff always accommodating. I would no doubt stay at the Blue Mansion the next time I'm in Penang. Stayed November 2016, traveled with family"
