Villa Song Saigon: "Villa Song made Ho Chi Minh City a magical stay"
"Villa Song is beautifully located on the Saigon River, with gorgeous views for 220 degrees. While away from the downtown, there is no problem with access: the boat shuttle is less than 15 minutes and a stunning architectural tour of HCMC, and taxis are inexpensive. The Villa Song is an oasis of calm with wonderful service that is attentive without being intrusive. Gracious, accommodating, impeccable. Room Tip: Rooms on second floor with a balcony are worth the extra price."Reverie Siam Pai: "Excellent resort with a view"
"We booked ourselves a mountain view room and was very pleased with it (i.e. decor / amenities and the spaciousness of the room). Our balcony was facing the pool overlooking the mountain and White Buddha view from afar. Good a la carte breakfast with wide selection of wines and beverages. The resort also provide free shuttle (buggy) transfer to and from the bus station which is good enough for us to walk around the walking street area. Credits to their punctuality on the pick-up. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful. With all the info givens, we booked a half day tour thru the hotel. We enjoyed the ambience of the resort throughout the trip. A truly hidden gem resort for those who needs a relaxing trip away from the busy city life."Noel Rodrigo’s Leopard Safaris: "At home in the jungle"
I had an outstanding stay at this Safari camp 2 weeks ago. The staff treated us like royalty, making sure every single detail of my stay was perfection. I had the privilege of being hosted by Noel and Cecile, the owners, and had equally great attention from all of the other staff in their absence. The safari guides, Sanj, Damian and Prameet all went the extra mile to ensure our visits were full of wildlife sightings, all knowledgeable in the flora and fauna seen. The food served at each meal is fantastic and abundant. The accommodations are appropriately rustic and comfortable. Can't wait to go back!Villa Song Saigon: "Calm oasis"
"This hotel is a calm oasis away from the bustle of the busy city with its thousands of motor cyclists. Friendly helpful staff, a stunning building and a refreshing clean swimming pool, with delicious food (local and international) served in the garden by the river. We liked the tablet computer photos (brought to the table) of the food so we could see before we ordered - a nice touch. Stayed March 2017, traveled as a couple"Supanniga Eating Room: "Very yummy"
Really lovely restaurant with great food, polite service and ambience. We came here for dinner and the staffs were so attentive. The space is quite small so there is only a limited number of tables, so I would suggest you book in advance. I saw about 5 groups of walk ins get turned away during dinner.The Island Lodge: "Mekong trip or Saigon escape? This is your place"
"When you arrive on the small road you may wonder if you got lost, in fact you just found a secret gem! Beautiful surroundings (pool and river on one side, gorgeous garden on the other side) Tasteful design and decoration everywhere around Lovely and helpful team Nice mix of Vietnamese and French food Large choice of activities/tours to visit the area by boat, bike or scooter. We will definitely be back for the Mekong and for the Hotel!"Rachamankha: "Such a great place"
"We were very surprised by the quality of the staff ans hotel itself. Buetifully planned, very well maintained witch charming atmpsphere of an old ""monastery"" type of building. Staff is vert well trained, good English, very helpful and attentive. Rooms are of good size, nicely decorated, very high ceilings, perfect AC, good shower. Breakfast really with plenty of choice both on buffe and menu. Location is quiet, in a tiny street but very close to main attractions. Wifi OK. Nice pool, well maintained greenery. Very much recomendable place. Stayed January 2017, traveled as a couple"Nam Bo Boutique Hotel: "Excellent"
Lovely little hotel, great dining options and excellent breakfast. One night stop en route to Cambodia. Very nice town, room very spacious and comfortable. Can't go wrong. Beautiful wooden floors, staff very attentive and helpful.David’s Kitchen: "Fantastic dining at David’s"
"I had the pleasure of visiting David's Kitchen on a solo trip this past week. The food was lovely, the service was very attentive and as many reviewers noted David himself is a real pleasure - much appreciated his warm and engaging welcome particularly as I had no one but my bag as a dinner companion! I cannot rave enough about the spicy fish salad with green apple. Spicy with the right amount of acidity, I seriously considered ordering another serving to go. Would love to return soon to try out more the items on the menu. "Chakrabongse Villas: "Wonderful hotel"
"We stayed one night in this hotel. This hotel is really beautiful. It is authentic and well located in the city. I would definitely recommend it. The room is huge and you have a large terrace. The breakfast is really good and can be served on the terrace as well. The staff speaks a very good English and are very helpful. This hotel would be a bit more expensive than other hotels that we did in Bangkok but it is definitely worth it. We hope to come back in Bangkok and stayed there. Thank you again for the Thailand flag :)"
