The River Resort: "Sérénité, luxe & gentillesse"

Review by: Tintinsansmilou_sa | Source: Trip Advisor
Très bel endroit, luxueux et très bien entretenu, magnifique jardin, double piscine, spa, quand on en a assez des guesthouses un peu sommaires, endroit idéal pour s'offrir un moment de luxe. Lits géants et salle de bain extérieure et intérieure. Mékong à perte de vue depuis presque tous les bungalows et quelque oiseaux rares dans les arbres.

GLENBURN TEA ESTATE: "Magical Space"

Review by: worldtraveledSeattle | Source: tripadvisor.com
"At the end of a long, bumpy ride from Bagdogra you arrive at a beautiful tea plantation set on a hill with day and night views in all directions. Will, Faye and the rest of the staff could not be more accommodating. From a wakeup tea or coffee in your room to three wonderful meals a day it is a special place. The staff will take you on a tour of the tea plantation and villages, hiking to the river, tours to Darjeeling - you name it. You are met at the airport and returned after your stay. We stayed three nights which was minimal to take it all in. Guides tell us that after the monsoon season the place is green and the mountains in full view. "

Tandjung Sari: "12 Days at Tandjung"

Review by: David V | Source: tripadvisor.com
Our stay was very close to perfect- we selected a garden villa as our home base for the family holiday. The staff at Tandjung were so attentive and nothing was too much trouble. Starting each day with a shower (in the private outside villa courtyard) then having breakfast on the beachfront was a daily highlight for me. The villa and the grounds and the facilities around the resort were immaculate and the security staff at both ends of the property added to a sense of exclusivity. And lastly, Tandjung is great value; a similar quality room at a Seminyak resort cost my cousin more than double the rate. We will come back to Tandjung Sari for sure.

The Twelve Hotel: "Highly recommend"

Review by: ChamKaren | Source: Trip Advisor
A bit far from centre but easy to get to BTS by motorcycle or Tuktuk. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful, swimming pool is nice too but we have to time to try it. Overall a good experience to stay at The Twelve Hotel !

Rak Ko Jae Seoul: "Wonderful Experience – Hanok in Bukchon"

Review by: John W | Source: tripadvisor.com
This beautiful property tucked away in the Bukchon neighborhood of Seoul is an absolute gem! We had the opportunity to spend 3 amazing nites in the Rak Ko Jae, and during our stay we met Winnie, our fabulous and very accommodating host. She prepared amazing breakfastes and was so delightful to chat with. Loved our quaint sleeping quarters and the heated floors. Plus the supercool old school korean tub. So enjoyed just snooping around the amazing complex. I'm running out of superlatives to use! Also, check out the hot sauna, sweating until you cant keep your eyes open (in a good way!). We'll never forget our visit.

Rachamankha: "It can’t get better than this"

Review by: bruceSydney | Source: Trip Advisor
"This an exceptionally good hotel on so many levels. Among many outstanding attributes it has: A great position in the old city, close to the action but tucked away in a quiet spot. A beautiful, interesting building with many nooks and crannies. Wonderful staff. The front desk manager Wanida was superb leading up to and during our stay. Large, extremely comfortable and well-equipped rooms. A large, inviting pool. A good restaurant. Beautiful gardens. This hotel displays the standards to which all quality hotels should aspire."

Tugu Lombok: "The definition of hidden gem"

Review by: Scott A | Source: tripadvisor.com
Hotel Tugu Lombok is absolutely the perfect place to relax and a must-do on your Indonesian vacation. The hotel has stunning panoramic views and amazing sunsets. The beach is serene and quiet (even the three or four children that were there when we were there were well behaved...). While swimming is tough since the shore line is very shallow and rock filled, the hotel provides free snorkel gear and water shoes that make a cool down trip to the water easy and fun. Each room is uniquely furnished with antiques from around Indonesia that gives the hotel a cool vibe you can't find anywhere else...and the rooms/suites are amazing!

MesaStila: "Pampered stay"

Review by: BarbWill48 | Source: Trip Advisor
We have no negative comments about the Mesa Stila. We rarely return to a hotel which is not a beach location, as we vary our travel destinations, but we are considering where we can link with here as there was so much more to do than we managed in 3 days! We really appreciated seeing both ancient and contemporary Javanese culture. It would be unfair to praise an individual member of staff since everyone we encountered (including those around the grounds) provided wonderful service and a smiling greeting. The hamman experience is not to be missed. Thank you to everyone involved.
