Villa Song Saigon: "Part of my 60th birthday trip to Thailand and Vietnam"
"I have never been to Vietnam before and after spending a week in Thailand we flew to Saigon ( Ho Chi Minh) I had booked the Villa Song hotel whilst in the UK. I like staying near a river or the sea and the hotel looked ideal for us. There were 7 of us incl my wife, her cousin, our 3 children and my eldest sons girlfriend. The hotel was perfect! We arrived and as a surprise some friends of ours who live in Hong Kong had flown in and were at the bar as we arrived. The setting was so good we decided to stay at the hotel for dinner and it was excellent. Great French wines at great prices The chef who also came out to see us was really nice. He was born in Luxembourg and was very helpful. The whole place was excellent - a real original Colonial house that had been renovated into a fabulous boutique hotel. The food, the breakfasts, the cocktails were all superb Great spacious rooms with satellite TV and all the staff could not have been nicer. Above all the prices were sensible and affordable I could not recommend this hotel highly enough - right on the river and just 20 minutes into the centre on a free shuttle bus provided by the hotel You must go!!"Inle Princess Resort: "Prime Position"
A beautiful place in an idyllic setting. Spacious chalet with outside deck whetjr one has Lake View or Pond View (slightly less expensive. Excellent breakfast and very good dinner. Binoculars and bird book a very nice touch. No tv anywhere. Wi-fi not available in guest rooms, only in reeption and dining area (although we had good wiifi in our chalet number 102. Approach is by motor boat from town about 30 minutes away althogh last 500 yards is by leg rower so there is little noise disturbance. Consider your return to Heho airport by car all the way (omitting the 30-minute boat ride and loading and unloading luggage) which save about half an hour on the journey. The final touch -- it was my wife's birthday on the dy we left and sh had a sing and a cake from the staff at 0630 in th morning and a beautiful silk skirt as a present from the owner himself who seems sincere about greening Burma and providing social benefits to his employees and the local community.Chakrabongse Villas: "A tranquil haven in the middle of Bangkok"
"We stayed for the last night of our Asia tour and wished we had booked for longer. The Villa is a beautiful place in lush tropical gardens on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Diner and breakfast were superb and you really cant beat the view from the dining terrace. The staff were super friendly, making it all in all a lovely end to our trip. I hope their literary weekend was a success as they were all very excited to be hosting it and opening their doors to the general public for the 1st time."Tandjung Sari: "Beautiful, relaxing, great atmosphere"
"A lovely older style resort in Sanur away from the madness of Kuta/Legian. We stayed in a lovely 2 storey ocean front bungalow, just a few steps to the beach, The grounds of the hotel are lovely as is the pool and outdoor eating areas. Breakfast is very good, in fact all the food here is top quality. All staff very friendly and helpful. Would stay here again"NEELESHWAR: "A piece of heaven in gods own country"
"A gem of a place for a quiet getaway, everything about the place is just perfect , well appointed villas , the staff and it's service , the spa and finally the food to die for , the best Kerala food I have ever eaten.. A must visit place if one is looking for a break "Reverie Siam: "Beautiful resort – great place to stay"
I can't recommend Reverie Siam enough! Set in a quiet location away from the hustle and bustle of the main part of town, Reverie Siam is a relaxing and peaceful retreat. It offers beautiful and comfortable rooms with ensuites (including a deep bath tub), two pools, a restaurant, a free shuttle service into town (including providing a mobile to call them for pick-up), free wifi, and complementary breakfast. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again!Locavore: "Full of Surprise"
This was really really full of amazing food taste and surprise in Locavore. We had a seven course Herbivore menu, it taste fantastic. We were surprised by the countless amuse bouche! This was amazing🤗contemporary vegetarian food experience for me and my mum!The Samar: "Perfect gateway to the temples, with the personal touch"
"I came to Siem Reap for a mix between work and leisure and Samar Villa was the perfect fit. First, as I saw in many reviews, Bertrand and his team are always very attentive to our every need. They helped us organize various functions: from meals in unique restaurants, to temples visits and surprising platform rental with full service on Tonle Sap. We and our clients left absolutely delighted by our stay. Apart from this wonderful service, the villa itself is remarkable. The owners have impeccable taste and a beautiful collection of antiques throughout the public areas and rooms. My suite was spacious and homey and spotless, like I've rarely seen. Breakfast and the food in general were very good and generous. All in all, I highly recommend it and look forward to a 2nd visit."Nimmu House: "Havre de paix"
Une belle surprise, un havre de paix où il fait bon de se ressourcer lors d'un voyage au Ladakh. Une belle demeure traditionnelle joliment restaurée avec tout le confort occidental sans rien dénaturé. L'hospitalité est le maître mot du séjour. Magnifique et merci !Tugu Lombok: "A magical place"
We stayed in Tugu for 5 days, enjoyed our rooms, the decor of the hotel, the amazing decor of the restaurants and bars, the Spa, the beautiful pool, the peace, the wonderful beach, the lovely complimentary tea time with scrumptious patisseries, the service, the smiles. Yes, we loved it and hope to come back again soon!!
