Samokatus Hotels

A lush Noonu Atoll island resort praised for its turquoise lagoon, lively house reef and consistently helpful staff — many reviews single out butlers and named team members. Dining across three restaurants (including Japanese and Italian) is repeatedly highlighted; guests note strong family-friendly services like a kids’ club and activities. Minor, isolated complaints cover wind exposure on some bungalows and occasional variability in staff smile/engagement.

Locals recommend this restaurant for the beautiful view from the terrace and delicious Georgian food. They grill river trout, serve their own wine and chacha, and offer cold matsoni soup in hot weather. You can also stay overnight: small double rooms (from 2,300 rubles) and apartments with a jacuzzi overlooking the Alazani Valley (for up to four people, from 11,500 rubles).

Small, atmospheric hotel built into İzmir's Kemeralti Bazaar with a leafy central courtyard, nightly live music and a popular on‑site restaurant. Visitors praise the friendly staff, clean rooms and unbeatable old-town location, but many warn about evening noise, cigarette smoke and occasional fish-market smells in some rooms.

LS Hotel (Guilin Liangsu) is a boutique-style premium hotel in Yangshuo known for its exceptional service and breathtaking mountain views. Guests praise the modern, clean rooms and the highly attentive staff who coordinate everything via a dedicated WeChat group. Numerous free perks — transfers, afternoon tea, evening desserts, and professional photo shoots — greatly enhance the stay. Some mention minor issues with soundproofing or views not always matching the promotional photos, but overall the hotel delivers an A-level experience.
