Hi Ms. Hai Yen,
I hope all is well with you.
We had completed the comment cards with each guide and so hopefully they will have been some use to you in improving you service going forward.
We had a really wonderful trip and wanted to thank you for you assistance and service throughout.
As mentioned in our comments there are a few things which we felt could have been better and as you have asked I will put down a few pointers which I feel are valid and will assist you when planning a similar trip for future guests.
Our first hotel The Riverside in Saigon,the room we had been first offered was a bit smelly so we upgraded to the River View room,we would have expected given the cost of the tour that we would have been given this room as standard. Our second room was nice a little dated but the hotel is very well located and the breakfast buffet was fantastic. My comment would be to ensure your guests are put on the riverside in future,I’m sure no one will have an issue paying the $20 extra it cost us?
The other hotel we felt could have been better was the Golden Sand,again the rooms were musty smelling and the beds not at all comfortable. I would not recommend this as part of a tour.
Siem Reap,the Borei Angkor was also a bit dated and I would have preferred a different more up to date alternative as we had 4 nights here also their Dinner menu was not very good.
Kampong Thom,Sambor Village,was not a very good standard and you are open to the elements as the roofs are straw and do not provide any protection from the insects which come in to your room at night. I understand this area is not very well developed from a tourism point so we accepted that as it was only for one night,I would advise that you check out some alternatives.
On the positive side the Pilgrimage Village was superb we would have happily spent another night here and it might be an option to offer a 1 night rest day to guests in the future this would have been an option we would have really benefitted from after a week of intensive travelling. The Sofitel in Hanoi was beautiful,the Cruise was sensational and the Intercontinental was nice.
Our guides were all very nice and well informed and we are very happy to have taken this trip.
We both very much enjoyed our holiday and thank you to your team for looking after us. As I said over all we had a fantastic time and I hope my comments will help you to improve your service for other guests.
