Guest Reviews

Satri House: "Quiet and relaxed"

"Thank you to all the very kind and helpful staff at the hotel who gave us lots of good advice, arranged tuktuk and minibus drivers and always had a friendly word. The rooms are fine, a bit cramped but comfortable. Snacks left in the afternoon were a nice treat after a day out. Breakfast was wonderful with lots to eat and a big pot of tea. The jams are amazing and I don't usually eat jam! Sitting in the bar in the evening after eating out and visiting the night market was lovely. The hotel is very close to town. Leave by the back route by the pool if going into town. We recommend this hotel and thank all the friendly staff for a lovely stay."

Manukan Island Resort: "Heaven in earth in Manukan Island"

A short boat ride from KK is Manukan Island. This small island with turquoise waters and white sandy beaches has this gem Sutera Sanctuary Lodges. We stayed in an awesome Hillside Villa just above their private beach. The villa was stunningly beautiful and comfy, you will feel like home. The décor itself makes you not want to leave the island ever! Pure luxury! Right below the villa is the beautiful beach where you can spend hours snorkeling and discovering the reef. The island is small and it has a sunset point where you can go and admire a beautiful sunset over the ocean. At night you can enjoy amazing food at their awesome restaurant with live music! Sutera Sanctuary lodges is Heaven on earth.

Maison Polanka: "Ideal base in Siem Reap"

"To us, Maison Polanka is the ideal type of place to stay. With only a maximum of 10 guests in luxuriant grounds of 6000 sq m, it provides a tranquil oasis to rest after the jostle of Angor Wat. This creates an intimate atmosphere where one gets the chance to interact with both staff & other guests. The Sala next to the pool is a very pleasant place to have a quiet dinner. Both dinners we had there and also the breakfasts were excellent. We went out to the nearby Marun Restaurant (where marginalized kids are trained to work in hospitality) because we wanted to support the cause."

Mume: "Inventive cuisine at reasonable prices"

Managed to get a 830pm seating here on a trip to Taipei. It's not a fine dining restaurant where you have no option but to take a degustation menu. Instead you get a pretty decent sized menu to choose a la carte options and almost everything we had was really good. Highly recommend the chicken liver, beef tartare, barley porridge. Though the menu might be different next time you go. It's definitely a bit on the higher price range of food options in Taipei but the same quality of food would cost almost double in Singapore or Hong Kong. So overall it was great value for money.

Samanea Beach Resort: "Beautiful Hotel in Mosquito Land"

Hotel Samanea is one of the better hotels in Kep, it is beautiful and charming, however the description of having a white sanded beach was quite misleading. The hotel did not have a beach perse, only a sanded area with a water front. The hotel needs to be sprayed for mosquitoes, they were literally everywhere and we were getting bitten so much. Even in our own room they managed to get in to bite us. It was very uncomfortable. The staff tried to do as much as they could but they were not successful at it and they just let the dead mosquitoes out there. they did not clean after they sprayed.it was quite weird. The bed was a bit hard and the freestanding tub took hours to fill out but the room was very beautiful. They have all the elements in place, they just need to master the level of comfort for their guests. The breakfast was excellent!

Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Exceptional"

It is impossible to describe Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge. The scenery is breath taking, the food deliciously superb, the ambiance and staff first class. As a disabled person I (Allan) greatly appreciated having the bungalow closest to the main building. Marcus and his staff could not have been kinder or more considerate. Wish we could have stayed longer. As we are not exactly in the first flush of youth, it is unlikely that we will visit Nepal again but if we do we will certainly visit Tiger Mountain again. We wish Marcus and his team every success for the future. Sandra and Allan

The Island Lodge: "Excellent"

"We really enjoyed our stay at The Island Lodge. We went in December for our holidays, and our experience was by far the best. We can't say thank you enough for your immaculate service, and very beautiful hotel. The food was delicious, good cuisine with a french touch, mixed with the traditional Vietnamese gastronomy. We recommend The Island Loge 100%. You will certainly enjoy your stay there, I know we did! Stayed December 2016, traveled as a couple"

Supanniga Eating Room: "FANTASTIC THAI FOOD"

Found this gem just a few hundred feet from our hotel! From the Mekong cocktails to the deserts and everything in between... AMAZING! Flavors that will knock your socks off! Curry with mussels and pineapple... Crispy fish fried rice... Mushroom salad... Pad Thai with crab! Can't wait to come back!

Satri House: "Great service, beautiful grounds, wonderful experience"

We stayed for 3 nights and were very pleased with the helpful and friendly staff. Our room was large and comfortable and the food excellent. The Hotel is within walking distance of the night market. We highly recommend Satri House.

Villa Song Saigon: "2 nights wasn’t enough"

"Fabulous hotel, loved every minute. After a busy 2 weeks travelling south from Hanoi via Mekong Delta it was a real treat to finish our trip with 2 nights at Villa Song. It was extremely hot in Saigon compared to everywhere else so we used the hotel as a sanctuary to recuperate and enjoy. We got it right! The free shuttle boat into town was great and frequent, so the only trip we made was to the market to finish our gift and souvenir shopping, then spent the rest of the day by the pool. It was lovely also to sit by the river watching the 'traffic', with delicious food and friendly staff. Breakfast was served for most of the morning and was a fantastic way to start the day. The room was great (we had an extra bed put into a twin room) on the top storey - a bit of a climb without a lift but not a huge problem, it's not as though you had to carry your bags or anything! Absolutely top of the list for another trip to Saigon, and maybe next time I will be able to drag myself away from the oasis that is Villa Song and see a little bit of the city!"
