Rachamankha: "Surrounded by tasteful chinese art"

Review by: jonomad1 | Source: Trip Advisor
Its hard to imagine that this secret retreat is in the heart of Chaing Mai - The hotel is absolutely gorgeous - exquisite - so charming - the furniture is to die for - so tasteful - my husband and I adored our stay there - and because it was so central - we were able to visit the market by foot just 5 mins away. What a gem this place is - and I loved the symmetry - wow just awesome. Food was fab - and every afternoon my hubby and I would just sit and drink tea and soak it all in. Loved the place

SEEDS Restaurant & Lounge: "Friday dinner"

Review by: PhilipN095 | Source: Trip Advisor
A really exceptional experience - divine location attentive staff and a warm welcome from the proprietors. Each dish was exquisite and was worth the premium prices charged. Atmosphere was also splendid and once the rains end I can imagine the al fresco experience is the best in Yangon as it has a wonderful location on the bank of Inya Lake

tugu malang: "Best hidden gem in Indonesia"

Review by: Sarah W | Source: tripadvisor.com
"We're currently living in Jakarta, and sometimes you need a little getaway from the Big Durian. Malang is it - and this is the hotel to stay in. I loved everything about this place. The hotel staff are really friendly - arranging early check in and late check out with no problems and playing with my baby. The rooms are gorgeous, really comfortable beds, huge beautiful bathroom with really nice products, and wood floors (great for a crawling baby). The grounds are like a museum with so many places to walk and explore. The hotel is located in a very walkable location and the hotel staff are helpful with recommendations. The restaurant has the best Indonesian food I've had in Indonesia. They'll modify for vegetarians - try the Nasi Campur. The breakfast that's included is also incredible - you can order off the menu and take from the buffet - all included! The coffee is amazing - we took home 2 bags of beans, very reasonably priced. The afternoon tea that's included offers a wonderful selection of Indonesian snacks to try and great tea and coffee. They include a welcome massage of 15 minutes, and we bought a full massage, which was really high quality and totally worth it - and reasonably priced. "

Rachamankha: "Rachamanka Hotel Chiang Mai, what an oasis in a bustling city"

Review by: 895cheshire21 | Source: Trip Advisor
"We arrived at the Rachamanka Hotel after being in Bangkok for 3 days. What a little oasis this is with its little courtyards, beautiful bedrooms with wooden doors and relaxing pool area. This is a really tranquil place, not for young kids, as this is somewhere to relax by the pool, visit the massage area or library.The whole place is quality with antiques around the whole place. Breakfast is superb, with a great choice and all made to order, no buffet here! Lots of attentive and helpful staff. This place deserves the high certification it comes with. It simply has an air of calm and quality which must be appreciated. Do not expect to have too rush around in a hurry this is quality and tranquility, there are not many places like this around. Its a must stay in Chiang Mai and right by the attractions, but without any noise. Stunningly beautiful."

Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Best meal in Siem Reap!"

Review by: radvani | Source: Trip Advisor
"After 5 trips to Siem Reap, I finally found a great restaurant! Wat Damnak is absolutely a gem of a place, The ambience, food, and service are all outstanding. The food, however, is what sets this place apart. There's no point making recommendations since the menu changes every week, but suffice to say that every dish on the tasting menu we tried was a treat. The grilled langoustine was exceptionally good, and dessert (mango cashew nut crumble, green mango jelly, and vanilla cream) was an absolute delight. I could have easily eaten 3 more of those. The drinks menu is also extensive, and very good value. My companion had an excellent cocktail, while I tried a local craft beer. I would recommend going for the 6 course option, it's definitely worth it. At USD 31 for the 6 course menu (USD 27 for 5 courses), it's a steal and worth much, much more. This is easily the best restaurant in Siem Reap."

Maisons Wat Kor: "Love this home very much"

Review by: Evieeeeeeee | Source: Trip Advisor
"I love this home very much! I felt ""Wooooooooow"" when my Aunty - Thanet told me that, Maison Wat Kor was experienced by Anjelina Julie, but then, I thought that it was her joke to me. Finally, yes that's true. I feel very special and love a great moment we had together with the family. The nature, the architecture, the atmosphere and especially well treats by owner of the house made us feel as our home. I love the breakfast and bedroom. We will be back."

Rachamankha: "Wonderful location, beautiful architecture"

Review by: Banditsmom707 | Source: Trip Advisor
"The beautiful antiques and elegant architecture makes this hotel a stand out. Located centrally within the walled city, it is easy walking distance to many Wats. The dining room is lovely. The food was excellent (be sure to have the Burmese Tea Salad). The pool was lovely and the landscaping equally lovely. We had great, friendly service. I would go back. Stayed February 2017, traveled as a couple"

The Governor’s House: "Highly recommended"

Review by: ar0723 | Source: tripadvisor.com
I had a great stay at Governors House. The staff were warm and accommodating without being overbearing; the property and rooms were perfectly curated and cozy; and the grounds were absolutely lovely. I stayed in GH as a respite prior to a few weeks of intense work, during which I was lodged at a bigger international chain hotel that - although more 'luxury' - didn't have the charm or the homeyness of this property. I'd highly recommend it for travelers looking for a more stylish, and more personal, lodging experience in Phnom Penh.
