Villa Song Saigon: "Few days to relax in busy HCM"
"We are a family of 2 kids and it's our second stay in villa song and definitely not the last one. We booked a room and got finally a nice upgrade to a bigger sanctuary room downstairs so easier to handle with the stroller and kids . They have a nice swimming pool and our son enjoyed it at least once to twice per day , The restaurant is super good , Breakfast is served all day long , and the choice is super wide with Vietnamese and western food - my fav of the stay : banh cuon and my husband : croissant sandwich, fruits are fresh and tasty, For the evening, they have a more westerner food menu which is super good but don't expect Vietnamese food - We were there during their Singaporean cook host week and we tried some of his best dish - my fav is the dessert aloe and jelly - lemon sherbet :) On top of that the staff is awesome , super nice and would do everything for u to get a nice stay . We used their baby sit service 2 eve without any issue , And last day I treat myself with a spa offer they had : scrub and facial , it was very well done and relaxing ... and would do it again next time ! Pros: nice swimming pool, adorable staff , food quality , spa available and kids friendly (babysit / babycot) Cons : in D2 so not in city center but u can always enjoy a 15min boat ride right into the center and avoid busy traffic We will definitely come back!!!"Villa Song Saigon: "Staff eager to please"
"The staff are fantastic - nothing is too much trouble. Boutique hotel with pool open till midnight, complimentary speedboat along Saigon river to city centre is an added bonus. Would recommend Room 201 without hesitation. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"Rachamankha: "Impressed"
Stayed here for our honeymoon and wow was it a great choice! The pool is stunning and the grounds are something super special. You feel like royalty here. The staff wants nothing more than to help and please you and do such a great job of making your stay lovely! They gave us fee champagne upon arrival and the manager was so lovely. Airport pickup with them went swimmingly and the breakfast was five star every morning! Couldn't be more full never ending amount of food offered! Room service was a delight as well. Only thing I would say is stay away from the burger and the dinner at the restaurant both were below average. Other than that everything was five star perfection! Will never forget this place!!Rachamankha: "Masterpiece"
"We stayed 5 days for our anniversary and we enjoyed our time staying in this hotel. 1. Convenient location, only 20 mins drive from airport and 10 mins drive to night bazzar. 2. Artful structure, the hotel itself is the masterpiece and it is covered with collectibles of the owner, orchids are everywhere, you must visit their library 3. Peaceful atmosphere, quite & clean room, it is a great place for relax and stress relief. Friendly staffs (and their GM Paul Walker) are so helpful. Free wifi available for me to stay connected to the world. 4. Great chefs, delicious breakfast (no words), dinner is even better (must try their Myanmar curry and mango sticky rice wrap)"Tugu Lombok: "Best ever hotel, would make it 10 stars if I could"
"This is by far the best hotel I have ever visited. First, the settings are absolutely amazing: we spent 4 days there, and were still discovering a piece of art or statue here and there. Our villa was delightful, so are the two pools and restaurant, and the gardens as well as the beach.... absolutely everything is stunning! I took over 300 photos of the grounds, and do not want to delete any. Attention to art and detail is everywhere. Next, customer service was also perfect: from the moment we walked in (and even before as they actually pay attention to nice to have requests at the time of reservation) everybody actually cared about our wellbeing. As an example, our flight was canceled because of a volcano, and hotel manager stayed late at night to make sure we could get a boat to Bali, and booked all taxi for us. Thank you to the full team, I hope we will come back. I will definitely recommend your hotel to friends and family."Supanniga Eating Room: "Supanniga Eating Room"
The restaurant is located in the Sukhumvit district of Bangkok. Despite being on a main street, and having the address written in Thai, our taxi-driver still didn't find it easily (not unusual in Bangkok) so best to get information about the location before you set out, preferably a map. The place is relatively small and fashionably designed, the food is gourmet Thai seafood (apparently from Eastern Thailand). There's a nice cocktail list (and wines, although we didn't try those). In other words, it's at the other end of the scale to the average Thai eatery. Prices were reasonable considering all factors. Between two of us we had a crab curry, crispy stir-fried fish (a kind of Thai version of whitebait), a prawn and bean stir-fry, white rice and black rice. Our waitress was quite a character and spoke very good English. All very good. All in all, a pleasant experience.Sanak Retreat Bali: "Sublime"
"Grandes chambres de luxe au milieu des rizières. Très bon restaurant et prix très abordable. Il est aussi possible de manger dans la chambre. Comme partout a Bali,personnel aux petits soins. Le cadre est merveilleux,superbe piscine."Cuisine Wat Damnak: "Great food and service"
"We booked this months in advance. We had the 6 course menu at US$28 per person, which was good value for this standard of restaurant. All the courses were beautifully presented and were delicious. Their cocktails were also tasty. The restaurant is tastefully decorated, we sat inside that had air con. Staff were all very professional and attentive, spoke good English. Recommend you visit."Rachamankha: "Zen Hotel"
We loved our stay at Rachamankha. As others said, it felt like you were in a secluded location when you were actually right in the heart of old town Chiang Mai. Paul, the manager, is too good for words. He found out we were on our honeymoon...at our next hotel in Krabi, we had a package waiting for us in our room one night. It was a custom piece of artwork, with both my and my wife's names written in thai, and a personal note from Paul thanking us for staying at the hotel. We would absolutely stay here again without a 2nd thought.David’s Kitchen: "Outstanding food and outstanding service"
My wife and I ate dinner at David’s kitchen and found both the food and service to be world-class. The fois gra was exceptional and my duck with orange sauce was perfect. Both the quality of the ingredients and it’s preparation made the meal memorable. The presence and attention of David was fairly unique given the size of the establishment. I would unconditionally recommend this restaurant to anyone who loves French food.
