Cheong Fatt Tze – Blue Mansion: "Free & Ease to Penang"
My friend & I had enjoyed to stay at The Blue Mansion. Staff are helpful & friendly, hotel room is big and comfortable and you can place order for your breakfast. For Dinner, you can walk to Red Garden Food Centre next door, there are wide ranges of food for your selections.Manda De Laos: "best place, best food, best service"
The food is extraordinary, fusion style for those who dont want to eat every day rice or noodle dishesSamanea Beach Resort: "Incredible Get-Away"
I absolutely love this place. The setting is perfect for a quiet get away. The landscaping is immaculate and pier is such a perfect place to sit and relax. Even though the ocean is not really swimmable, the man-made beach is great. There is is a lot of care and attention put into this place and I can't wait to go backSlow Villas and Spa: "Love This Villa so much"
Staying here for few days before heading back to Yogyakarta with Motorbike. I love this villa so much! ♡ The room is clean ♡ The WiFi is fast ♡ Open Air bathroom with Hot & Cold Water ♡ Small Pool ♡ Good BreakfastRachamankha: "Superb hotel"
Built in the style of an colonial residence, beautifully laid out, lovely rooms, super-helpful service - loved it. Lovely pool to hang out by. Restaurant was superb (and not too expensive). Would stay here again!Tugu Lombok: "Wir hatten eine phantastische Zeit!"
"Das Tugu Hotel liegt sehr einsam am Sire Beach auf Lombok. Wir hatten für einen Aufenthalt von 5 Nächten eine Svarga Villa gebucht. Die einzelnen Villas verteilen sich über ein sehr großes Gelände, welches direkten Strandzugang hat. In den Pool-Villas hat man direkten Meerblick. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und das Tugu gehört zu den TOP-Hotels, in denen wir jemals übernachtet haben. Das Servicepersonal ist unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit und man wird in der ganzen Anlage immer mit dem Namen angesprochen (was für mich nach wie vor rätselhaft ist, wie das funktionieren kann :) ) Das Frühstück wird á la Carte serviert, was sicher etwas Zeit in Anspruch nimmt, dafür aber unglaublich lecker und frisch ist. Außerdem hat man keine zeitliche Beschränkung für das Frühstück...also auch frühstücken mittags um 12 geht! Die einzelnen Villas sind alle individuell eingerichtet und man kann überall auf dem Gelände und in der Villa sehr schöne Antiquitäten entdecken. Einziges kleines Manko: beim Abendessen ist man eigentlich auf das Restaurant im Hotel angewiesen, da es in der Umgebung keine Restaurants gibt. Das Essen im hoteleigenen Restaurant ist sehr lecker und die Umgebung ist sehr stilvoll (ehemaliger Fürstenpalast). Wir haben im Hotel auch einen individuellen Ausflug gebucht: Wanderung durch die Reisterrassen und zum Wasserfall. Das war unglaublich schön und perfekt organisiert. Den Transfer hat das hoteleigene Fahrzeug mit Fahrer durchgeführt. Achtung für die Anreise: wenn Sie von Bali kommen, nutzen Sie am Besten das Speedboot, dann sind Sie innerhalb 15 Minuten von der Anlegestelle beim Hotel. Der Flughafen ist sehr weit entfernt (ca. 2 Stunden Autofahrt!). Herzlichen Dank nochmals an das Team und das Management des Tugu Hotels! Wir haben uns wirklich sehr sehr wohl gefühlt!"Locavore: "Ecstatic"
"Never thought I'd have to go to Ubud to get the best culinary experience in my life. This restaurant ticks all the boxes for me. Phenomenal food using local ingredients, knowledgeable and friendly staff and a great ambiance. Seemingly endless appetisers, 7 courses with a pre-desert and 3 let's call them post deserts. I was in heaven! I especially liked the squid in black dish and the Bangkok Hitam (pork shoulder). We chose a beverage pairing with each course. These beverages were cleverly crafted cocktails. In my opinion they deserve a Nobel prize for cocktails for their cocktail with bacon! I can recommend this restaurant to anyone who is willing to have their tastebuds titillated. Be sure to make a reservation well in advance!"Rachamankha: "Beautiful retreat!"
This hotel is a beautifully designed tranquil retreat situated within the old city walls of Chaing Mai. When I say beautifully designed, I mean exceptional to the extent that you can sit outside in the court yard and feel inspired by the tranquil beauty of the traditional dark wood roof, the columns and the traditional furniture designs. The only aspects which very mildly let the hotel down is the ceiling of the bathroom is white cork tiles similar to an office toilet from the 1990s. Also the shower head is about 10 years out of date, still works, it just hasn't got the the spread of any modern shower head. These are minuscule issues to point out but it's due to the rest of the hotel being so beautiful. If they did iron out these small aspects & revamp the rooms a little, then this hotel would be in line with others that cost 4 times the price. Tranquil, Beautiful & Relaxing. Escapism. A*****Locavore: "Best mark evet"
I tool a friend who lives in Bali here as a thank you for being a guide whiktin Bali. We are both foodies and have eaten meals at some good restaurants, i.e. Ramsay, rhodes, river cafe, boulud, tragebuches, blaue ente, vong, warning, mpw and I can state this was the best meal I have had in years. Save you pennies and go for the full tasting menu with accompanied drinks. Also I recommend lunch as then you can slowly see and recover in the early evening!!!Sanak Retreat Bali: "Simplement parfait !"
"Un excellent séjour dans cet hôtel situé au milieu des rizières. Restaurant excellent, personnel professionnel, piscine agréable, chambre spacieuse, vue exceptionnelle... Tout était parfait. Nous avons fais une ballade au milieu des rizières et une baignade dans des piscines naturelles avec l'hôtel. Une activité de qualité où nous nous sommes sentis seuls au monde. Nous avons testé le spa : le top !"
