Rice & Zen Boutique Resort: "Amazing Brunch"
The Brunch was amazing! Great setting, delicious food and perfect service! It was our second time here on a Sunday. We met locals who come often, and we have learned why. The owner Khun Poy and his team were awesome!VILLA SONG SAIGON: "Just Wonderful"
"We loved staying here. It is a beautiful oasis in the middle of a bustling city. They service was impeccable! They allowed us to check in early and check out VERY late which was so convenient for us. They have a wonderful scheduled boat that takes you to the center of Saigon in 15 minutes which was just so fun. The idea that you can have your free breakfast any time of the day is perfect! They scheduled a tour for us and we were picked up right on the hotel's dock. The pool was nice and quiet. The restaurant is right on the river and has very good food "Villa Song Saigon: "Perfect Hideaway"
Villa Song Saigon is the perfect quiet hideaway from the busy city! you can relax in a beautiful garden, with a wonderful view to the saigon river or just hang around the poolsite.. you have a privat speedboat shuttle from the hotel to downtown, which is the perfect way to go to ho chi minh city! toptoptop!Mie Cafe: "Amazing"
This hidden gem is amazing. Ribs you can cut with a fork and the coconut ginger ice cream are must haves.Bassac Cruises: "Very interesting morning"
First of all we took a small boat to the floating market with a lovely breakfast supplied on board. The boat lady was in exceptionally nice and we got some great photos that she pointed out to us. After the markets she dropped us off on the bank and we were met by a local guide and three bicycles. We then spent the next 2 hours gently cycling on small paths through villages in the forest between the small rivers. Very interesting guide who spoke excellent English. Delicious fruit and tea stop on route. Highly recommend both trips.Supanniga Eating Room: "Excellent Thai food"
"The Thai food here tastes like the home cook food. There is nothing fancy but very satisfying. The portion served is quite small so we did ordered many dishes for share. We love the pineapple and mussel curry as well as the grilled beef. There is also vegetarian menu for one of our friends so that is another plus. The place is quite busy at dinner time so it is better to book ahead."Chakrabongse Villas: "Wonderful stay!"
We loved this place! It was gorgeous and calm, and the managers are extremely friendly and professional. We enjoyed falling asleep to the soothing sounds of the river right outside our door, and loved the excellent location right next to the grand palace and wat Arun. I'd love to come back at some point in the future. Highly recommend!Rachamankha: "Peaceful and Serene haven in the old walled city"
As soon as you enter the hotel grounds you can see that this is a beautifully maintained hotel and it is like stepping into a different world from the hot and busy walled city. We stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed the quiet peaceful child free atmosphere, the spacious pool (although unattended so you have to take your own water down from your room) which at times we had completely to ourselves. Breakfast was freshly prepared from the kitchen for any hot items with a small buffet of cereals, breads, fruit etc. in the air conditioned restaurant - excellent real leaf teas and fresh juices. As others have said the hotel is perfectly maintained with lovely antique furniture. For us the wifi worked well and apart from no conditioner amongst the Molton Brown toiletries it couldn't be faulted - would stay here again in an instant.TIGER MOUNTAIN POKHARA LODGE: "One of my favourite places on Earth"
"We arrived to grey weather and the welcome was as warm as ever! Every single one of the staff here are smiling and welcoming, they treat you like very special guests and the service is wonderful! The chalets each have 2 rooms, so very private...the ""wake ip call"" come with a person serving you tea or coffee as ordered the night before...today was early because the mountains"" are here""... So in order to enjoy the view you get up really early, it is worth it! The food here is scrumptious, be it Nepali or western...one tends to indulge... "The River Resort: "Superbe ! Notre plus bel hôtel au Laos"
Superbe : l arrivée en bateau et l accueil, l aménagement paysager du site, la qualité des constructions et la décoration, les 2 douches dans la chambre, le petit déjeuner surtout lorsqu il n y a pas le buffet et que l on peut choisir parmi du salé et du sucré frais et bien cuisiné, les 2 grandes piscines, le personnel discret et efficace, le prêt de vélo (et cerise sur le gâteau l attention parfaite de vous offrir une bouteille d eau fraîche pour votre balade !). Bref après 3 semaines au Laos nous sommes en mesure de comparer : du très très haut niveau, luxueux mais où on se sent bien ! Et la literie parfaite...
