The River Resort: "Excellent séjour !"

Deux piscines, ce qui est vraiment bien, à débordement toutes les deux, petit déjeuner correct mais à améliorer avec vue sur le Mékong... Chambre confortable en bungalow avec terrasse, vue sur le Mekong... et magnifique propriété. Personnel très aimable et attentif. Bien sûr un peu cher... et l'organisation qui est excellente.

David’s Kitchen: "Outstanding Experience and Service"

"We have never been to a restaurant that sent a car to collect us, whose owner introduced himself, e-mailed us the next day and sent a car to take us back to the hotel. The food itself was superb, modern European with an asian twist which was ambitious without being over pretentious. An interesting and good value wine list. Very tasteful setting with excellent interior design which was fresh and light. We liked the crisp appearance of the attentive and friendly staff. The set menu was good value. They managed a gluten free requirement with no fuss"

Reverie Siam: "A slice of paradise"

"In 2014 we visited Reverie Siam just after they opened for one glass of wine ... and promised ourselves we'd come back to stay one day. So this holiday, we stayed there for just one night as a special treat on our holiday and it was even more wonderful than we thought it would be! The room (we were upgraded from a standard room to a villa at no extra cost) was stunning. The bathtub is literally bigger than our entire bathroom at home! The service was exceptional ... especially considering our grubby backpacker aesthetic. If you're looking for a treat, a retreat into another world - I recommend a stay here!"

TIGER MOUNTAIN POKHARA LODGE: "Fabulous Respite"

"We stayed here after a grueling six day trek, and what a welcome reward it was! From the moment we disembarked from our jeep, up the steep driveway to the property, our entire group was awed. Literally perched on a mountain top, you have sweeping views from both sides of the mountain. The villas scattered around the property work to maintain privacy, while the beautiful common area has little nooks for privacy, or you can choose to sit on the beautiful verandah, to take in the views, have a drink and rest. The dinner, meanwhile, was delicious, with the tables elegantly set in a non-pretentious way. The villa was beautifully decorated, and again, after our hard work and life in a tent on the trek, the luxurious bed and bathroom was so welcomed! It is truly a retreat - either from the demands that wonderful Nepal asks of you as her traveler, or from the demands that your daily life asks of you. I will certainly return - and might just take in one day in Kathmandu, then come directly back to Tiger Mountain Lodge for three days of beautiful relaxation and rejuvenation. "

Glenburn Tea Estate: "Magical Location and Five star service"

The magical location of this resort poised on a hill with direct views of Darjeeling town and Kachenjunga from my bedroom window is quite unforgettable. Lush gardens communal dinners and a sense of a bygone time reminiscent of the british rag. Day trips to Darjeeling and Kalipong and the river camp. Husna and Alex went out of their way to make me feel at home.

Glenburn Tea Estate: "Fantastic retreat in the mountains"

Having read the reviews, we were not looking forward to the road transfer from the airport up to Glenburn but it really wasn't too bad at all and definitely worth it. We were warmly greeted by Will & Faye and they continued to look after us very well during our 4 night stay. We enjoyed the communal meals and we met some very interesting guests. The location was perfect, amazing views and our room lovely. The food was good and every effort was made to accommodate special requests (we had scones and specially made Portuguese tarts) We did a couple of the escorted walks which we really enjoyed. We also took much advantage of the free laundry service! A faboulous property and we had a wonderful time.

David’s Kitchen: "Memorable experience"

The restaurant had a very nice atmosphere, the music was vocal jazz and relaxing. The restaurant created a lovely mood, suitable for couples or even families. The staff was extremely polite and friendly. The food was exceptionally delicious. The beef was tender. The dessert was also special. The service was great. No dissapointment for sure.

Slow Villas and Spa: "Amazing place"

"Nice an relaxing. Great service. All the mod cons. Probably the most luxurious accommodation on the island. The Indonesian BBQ that you can order on request is amazing. Great aircon, pool, beds, little kitchen and even a USB with shows on it in case you want a lazy afternoon watching Human Planet, Bikes and lights supplied. Great architecture, happy helpful staff. Massage included, yoga sessions, Pilates. Just Amazing"

Tugu Bali: "Best hotel to relax"

"If you're looking for a place away from party places and noisy crowds in Bali, then head to Hotel Tugu Bali. You have to see for yourself on why this is such an amazing hotel to stay in. I loved my Dedari Suite which had a private pool and a really beautiful bathroom. The entire property went beyond my expectations, and I was blown away by the beachfront area. I also enjoyed their all day breakfast concept, especially since I left very early for my Mt. Batur climb and returned after lunch. This hotel is at least an hour away from the airport but it's really worth it. There are also pubs outside the hotel if you want to have some drinks and a bit of party vibe. I hope to be back soon!"
