Tiger Mountain Pokhara Lodge: "Exceptional"

Review by: Sandra G | Source: Trip Advisor
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: "Perfect Place for relaxing holidays"

Review by: sissou01 | Source: Trip Advisor
"We stayed 2 nights in this hotel and everything was perfect. The rooms are beautiful with a nice view on the Mekong river. The breakfast is just delicious. The pool is perfect if you want to relax with the view on the Mekong river. The staff is really friendly and the owners will make everything for you to just feel like being at home. We did some excursions with the hotel and it was also very nice. They have bicycles with child seat, which is perfect. We will definitely come back. Sylvia"

The Apsara Rive Droite: "Great Location! Great Hotel"

Review by: ChasG9 | Source: Trip Advisor
"We had a main floor room. It was large and so was the bathroom. Both the bed and the bathtub were high so there may be a problem for persons with mobility problems. Air conditioned plus a fan. Well kept and clean. The hotel was one short block from the main street where the monks come every morning. It was a ten minute walk to the night market and easy walking distance to many wats nearby. Also close to boats for river trips, especially sunset cruises. Breakfast for westerners consisted of juice, fruit, bacon and eggs, local french inspired bread and coffee. highly recommended. We got a great deal at US70.00 per night. Was worth more than that. Room Tip: All rooms face the river and a busy street which is not noisy after 10:00 at night."

Neeleshwar Hermitage: "Total relaxation"

Review by: Peggotty G | Source: Trip Advisor
Neeleshwar Hermitage is pretty much my favourite place in the world for total relaxation. Cottages on a long beach, sand between your toes at meal times, yoga, Ayurvedic treatments, the sound of ocean waves in the background and wonderful people who unobtrusively look after everything. Every need is met but with none of the trappings of the typical ‘luxury’ hotel. If you want evening entertainment, music, exotic imported foodstuffs, or the bright lights this is not the place for you. And please don’t expect it to change. The owners are committed both to sustainability and to this unique model of total luxury with a difference. If you like like peace and quiet and privacy come. As a couple of retired academics, for us it is very expensive, but worth every rupee.

We always stay in Tugu Hotel overtime we visit Bali, Lombok, and Malang. Its belong to an amazing indonesian family who had done so much to make this place super special, the history, the art, the decoration, the management , the food and love. we feel like home overtime we are back to this place, as they always remember you and makes you feel so comfortable without feeling odd. the pick us up with the best driver who provided us with baby seater, fruits and water in the car. every details is manners in Tugu. Its in-front of the black sandy beach where they provide, sunbathing chairs, and bed with umbrellas and towels , security always there to help. at night its so beautiful with the lights , candles, and good food/drinks. If you ever visit Jakarta you have to go to their amazing restaurant Lara Djongrang, and some others. We thanks Lucien and entire family and crew for your hospitality and we are the biggest fans of Tugu. highly recommended.

tugu malang: "Probably The Best Hotel in Malang"

Review by: Triyono A | Source: tripadvisor.com
"From the moment we arrive until checking out, this hotel has many touches that makes a guest feel special. They even print a post card with your name on it and put them in the bed before you arrive. One of the best attraction of Tugu Hotel is their art collection. There are so many nice painting, statues and art collection in their gallery. Ia also admire how they select the furniture and design the interior. Tugu Hotel most probably is the best hotel in Malang. They certainly is one of the best in Eastern Java. "

Villa Song Saigon: "Beautiful colonial boutique hotel"

Review by: Nancy C | Source: Trip Advisor
Stayed here for business and then my husband joined. In district 2 away from the hub bub but still close to everything. Walking distance to great food and a short ride to the center. The hotel is on the river and you will start your day with a lovely made to order breakfast outside with a view. The hotel anticipates your every need and is beautiful inside and out. Would definitely stay again.

4 Rivers Floating Lodge: "Perfect for relaxing break"

Review by: JAS n SUE W | Source: tripadvisor.com
Stayed two nights at the floating lodge 25-27th August. The staff are very helpful and the tents are luxurious. There is nothing better than to wake up in the morning to the sunshine and the river just outside. Great after the hustle and bustle of Phnom Penh.

misool: "An incredible marine experience!"

Review by: Kathy M | Source: tripadvison.com
"Andrew and Marit have accomplished the almost-impossible by building this remote, luxurious resort on an island in Raja Ampat, mostly from driftwood, and without a fresh-water source. It is a dive resort, but we are snorkelers, and were extremely well taken care of by Andrew, Marit, Mark, Sue, Calvin, two wonderful men both named Ali in the restaurant, and also young ""Soo press"", and the lovely masseuses Banne and Reeshna at the spa. We were assigned a private boat driven by the excellent Sam Saul and a private guide, ""Son"" (for Nelson), who took us on very many enlightening snorkelling excursions near the island. We even swam with 3 manta rays at ""Magic Mountain""! We were in paradise! The conservation philosophy of this resort is commendable and inspiring, and we were left with a feeling of hopefulness for the future of this marine habitat. Well done, Andrew and Marit, and staff! "

Locavore: "Best. Lunch. Ever"

Review by: Jon H | Source: Trip Advisor
"So glad someone suggested we go here while in Ubud (and also recommended we book ahead!!). Amazing, interesting dishes without being pretentious. Lots of local delicacies we had never heard of, but loved! We ordered the 5 course lunch, but in reality got about 12 courses of all these amazingly presented little bites. Book now."
