    Have been binging your videos today and its so odd to see your old format. I really like the changes you’ve made. The 2024 review style is much improved, not that this is bad.

      This is the 9th video I ever made- for anything lol. So, yeah, things have evolved quite a bit over the past 290 videos. Thanks for watching 🩴

    Great vid mate!! I've always wanted to check out this hotel (my extended family is in Saigon). Thanks for the video tour, and thanks for referring to the city as Saigon. Your more recent vids with spoken commentary instead of just subtitles + music are way better in my opinion, so I'm super glad you're speaking in your vids now ;)

      Thank you for the feedback and glad the video was useful for you. Yes, the channel has rolled out in baby steps so to speak, but we’re up and walking at a good pace now! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    Really great presentation. I don’t mind the Luxury Travel Expert’s influence on this videos at all, been dying to find any Vietnam based hotel review video with TLTE style, and finally found you guys. Hope to see more from you. ❤️❤️❤️

      Thanks for watching! We have changed our format just a bit in our newer videos to make it a better experience for our viewers that use subtitles… but a Vietnamese based reviewer we are for sure! Lots more to come- aiming for 60 reviews in 2021.

      I was there at the peak of Covid and such things were not allowed to be open (if they did have the facilities). I would contact them directly to find out. Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    Would you choose Caravelle over Intercontinental considering the location and good restaurants surrounding it?

    • @tfft
      @tfft  Год назад

      Caravelle location is far superior, but in reality just a 10 minute walk from each other.

      @tfft  2 года назад

      If the location is suitable my favorite (and I think best value) is the Nikko. For more centrally located though I’d go with the Caravelle, Park Hyatt or Intercontinental (hotel more so then residences). Thanks for watching 🙏🏻

    our favourite Saigon hotel is right behind the Caravelle - Sheraton Saigon with a great customer team and friendly GM Scott Hodgetts . I believe that he had left Sheraton Saigon & replaced by a new GM

    Video is well made but it's too similar to "The Luxury Travel Expert" channel (the structure, the BGM, the subtitles,...)

    • @tfft
      @tfft  3 года назад +1

      Thanks for watching and yes- we’ve already changed a bit of the format in our 3 most recent videos to make it easier to use real cc subtitles without us publishing text in the actual video. As for the structure, TLTE does a great job highlighting properties and we aim to do the same, but for a much broader range of hotels and resorts!
