Tugu Bali: "Sleep in a museum: luxury retreat in traditional Balinese style"

Review by: Tom G | Source: Trip Advisor
"his lovely hotel is a great place to stay in Bali. The location is absolutely fabulous as Canggu is THE hotspot in Bali right now and Tugu Bali is situated in the epicentrum of this popular area. Seriously the best hotel location in Bali. Around the hotel you will find the most popular surf beaches and the crowd in this surfer villag is young and hip. There are great places to eat around, all hip and trendy. So is also the Japanese restaurant attached to the resort. Great food! The rooms are super spacious and extremely lovely. It was a lovely stay in the Dedari suite and the bed is king king king king size, so huge! There was a private pool with complete privacy in the garden. The bathroom is super cute as it has window that open over a fishpond: feels like taking a bath with koi fishes. The resort is super quiet and there are guards running around to make sure only guests walk around. Disappointed is the WiFi signal, which hardly works. The restaurant and lobby has a pretty ok connection, but in 2016 you want it in your room to work. This is definitely something the hotel should improve, especially in hip and modern Canggu. The breakfast can be served at all times during the day everywhere you wish, so you just order it a la carte and it will be served on the bed, in your garden or on the beach. Oh it is delicious!!!! Try out the lovely complimentary high tea, indulge yourself with local sweets. Such a great service as well! The staff is super nice and always willing to help you wherever you can. The 60min massage we took was ok. Good, just not the best ever!. All in all Tugu resort is one of my favorite places to stay in Bali. The friendly staff, the lovely quiet location, the spacious rooms, the delicious breakfast and so on... Def will go back!"

Inle Heritage Stilt Houses: "Unexpected luxury"

Review by: Marles G | Source: Trip Advisor
"This is a lovely boutique hotel that sits on Inle Lake. The service was wonderful, the staff friendly and helpful. All of our meals were included in the price of the room and the food was excellent. Our room opened onto the lake - very peaceful and the room was luxurious. The hotel has a program where it is training young men and women to work in the hotels with tourists. The student's education is at no charge. In addition the owner is trying to reintroduce Bumese cats into the country. About 39 cats are maintained on the property in a very nice inclosure. We opted for a guide, Min Min Tun, mmt.inle12061977@gmail.com, to shows us around the lake. We found this very helpful as it enabled us to see more then the usual tourist spots. I would return to this lovely place again and again. Room Tip: All the rooms are excellent"

Nimmu House: "The perfect place to enjoy the beauty of Ladakh"

Review by: Ilse C | Source: Trip Advisor
We stayed at Nimmu House in the beginning of May, only 1 week after the road between Nimmu and Leh opened. Nimmu house is is located in Nimmu village, at about 40km from Leh. Nimmu village is situated in the Himalayas with stunning views of the surrounding mountains, which we could enjoy from the garden of Nimmu House during breakfast and lunch. Sure, you can get the same views in Leh as well, and throughout Ladakh, but you would be missing out on the tranquillity of a small village, the kindness of the local people, and above all the great food and ambience in Nimmu house and the hospitality of the team, in the skill full and experienced hands of Will, the French manager, who attended to our every need during our stay and explained everything about the fascinating history of the premises. The food was amazing. A mix of delicious Indian and European food cooked with fresh products form the gardens off Nimmu village. For us (living in Delhi), it was the perfect escape of our daily lives in the busy city to go take long walks, embrace the silence and get a breath of fresh air. Nimmu house became one of our favourite places in India.
