Cabochon Hotel & Residence: "Excellent Boutique Hotel"
Our family really enjoyed our stay at the Cabochon Hotel during our recent trip to Bangkok. Everything from the unique and interesting design, the amazing gin and tonic bar, the rooftop pool with great views of the city, the quiet location, the excellent restaurant and the extremely helpful and friendly staff made our visit very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this hotel. Also try the French toast for breakfast. It was delicious.Villa Song Saigon: "Beautiful colonial hotel"
A fabulous hotel with lovely staff. The hotel is beautiful from the outside and the room we had was great with a fantastic balcony overlooking the huge pool. The room itself was a good size with a lovely bathroom. The setting on the river is beautiful and the food in the restaurant was some of the best we had in Vietnam, especially the breakfast with amazing French toast! It's a great restaurant to sit and watch the river traffic go by and you can almost imagine you are in the middle of the countryside. The hotel is a little way from the city centre but they lay on regular free bus transfers and feels like a haven and welcome break from busy Saigon.Rachamankha: "Incredible Hotel Stay"
This hotel is absolutely beautiful and it was the best place we stayed at while in Thailand. It is centrally located to many city attractions and it is within walking distance to several spas, restaurants, etc. The hotel grounds are meticulously maintained and it has a magical feel to it while you stroll through the various buildings. The breakfast is very nicely done and there is a patio so you can enjoy your meal on the terrace. The rooms have more of antique feel with a modern twist - lots of nice amenities including a canopy bed, Molton Brown products, and good A/C. The only challenge I had during my stay in Chiang Main was that I got a lot of bug bites - please note the hotel also provides free bug spray so don't forget to use this religiously if you are prone to bug bites (I made the mistake of going without it for a couple of days). I would highly recommend this hotel to others who go to Chiang Mai...you won't be disappointed!Noel Rodrigo’s Leopard Safaris: "Safari"
We were at the camp sit for a night in a tent and we had a safari. It was a greath journey. The hole set up was amazing and the guides really know a lot about wildlife. The food is delicious and the nature is wonderful.The Cabochon Hotel and Residence: "Perfect hotel, perfect location, perfect restaurant!"
We stayed two nights at the Cabochon and I could have happily holed up there for weeks. The staff were so brilliant, our room was gorgeous, the location just of Sukhumvit was perfect for exploring Bangkok but far enough away from the main road to provide some peace and quiet while we were back at base. The rooftop pool was amazing and exactly what we needed after the heat of the city. But the real praise has to go to the kitchen - this was easily the best food we ate in Thailand. We loved the relaxed atmosphere of the Cabochon. Despite it's luxurious and ornate colonial vintage style, it didn't feel stuffy or 'too nice to touch.' Everyone was super lovely and very chilled out and there was nothing more blissful than having a happy hour cocktail on the front porch after spending the day exploring the city via the nearby Sky Train. Thank you for a wonderful stay to everyone at The Cabochon. Frankly, I can't wait to get back there.Maison Polanka: "A pleasure to stay there"
This is a wonderful hotel with only 5 rooms set in a beautiful garden in a secluded road in Siem Reap. We were there for three nights and were treated superbly by all the staff. Nothing was too much for them. If we wanted breakfast in our room at 06:30 because we were being picked up at 07:00, as was the case on two mornings, it was there. When we used the swimming pool one afternoon we were provided with tea and snacks. I can honestly say we were treated wonderfully well everywhere we stayed on our tour of Vietnam and Cambodia but Maison Polanka was a cut above. The food was very good and our room was beautifully kept. We can honestly recommend Maison Polanka to anyone who is looking to stay in Siem Reap and wants a unique experience.Rachamankha: "Oasis in the midst of Old City"
Your stay in Chiang Mai will be very special when you stay at Rachamankha. The grounds are beautifully landscaped, gorgeous antiques abound throughout, and the guest rooms are spacious and well designed. There is a huge pool with beautiful blue tile, a library offering books as well as brandy, and a restaurant that offers wonderful Asian and Western dishes. The property provides a very peaceful and tranquil environment and children are not allowed as guests to maintain the ambiance for adults. There is a large DVD library available for free viewing. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Please note, it may be hard for taxi drivers to find as it is on a small lane/alleyway - my first driver had to call the hotel 4 times before finally finding it! But it was well worth the effort.Tugu Lombok: "Short break. Very relaxing"
We went with my wife for a long weekend (4 days) and it was just perfect. Starting from the booking experience, it was done both very professionally and with a lot of kindness. All required information properly provided. Then you get to the place and it is just very nice and everyone is ready to help for you to have a nice moment. Well done Tugu Hotel, hope to come back anytime soon.Tandjung Sari: "Just perfect"
This hotel has everything a good hotel needs. Lovely staff, superb bungalow rooms, excellent food, nice beach and swimming pool. Beautiful gardens and wonderful collection of Balinese sculptures. Highly recommendedThe Hue House: "Lovely Place with good food"
"Should to come with a special person of you from 04hPm to enjoy the sunset at this rooftop Res, enjoy wine and scenery on this place. Open space with good food. Just take a time to come here have dinner when you traveling in HCMC, will be the opportunity to explore for sure."
