Visitor Reviews
This place is located on the main road in Kata. The rooms and swimming pool are well maintained. The breakfast buffet was decent as well. Overall, it’s a good place to stay.
Breakfast wasn’t great, room was spacious. Had fresh towels everyday. At 6am every morning you will hear sweeping/ cleaning outside your room which can wake you up.
Stayed: 15–25 August The hotel is very old and really needs renovation. Guests have been writing about this for years, but nothing has changed. Location is good, everything is close by, but the entrance to the hotel is not attractive. 3/5 There is no real gym, only some old and broken equipment near reception. In this hot weather, nobody will use it anyway. 3/5 The hotel has two pools, they are clean and well-maintained, but the pool bar has been closed for a long time. No entertainment in the hotel. 3/5 Rooms are cleaned every day, even if you don’t want it. Housekeeping knocks loudly even with a “SLEEPing” sign. And can enter in after a one knock. Management should fix this. Rooms have Wi-Fi, safe, fridge, aircon, TV, shower, etc. 3/5 Staff at reception are very nice and helpful. 5/5 Cafe is open for breakfast only. Breakfast is average. 3/5 Overall: This hotel does not deserve 4 stars. Needs renovation and better service for the price.
Tips for Visiting Hotels & Resorts
Book Shoulder Season
May–June and September–October offer dramatic discounts (30–50% off peak rates) with fewer crowds. Weather is mixed but rarely a washout — afternoon showers clear quickly.
Compare OTAs and Direct Rates
Always check the hotel's own website after finding a rate on Agoda or Booking.com. Many Thai properties offer a best-rate guarantee or throw in perks like free breakfast when you book direct.
Pool Villa Doesn't Mean Expensive
Private pool villas in Krabi, Hua Hin, and Chiang Mai start around 2,500–4,000 THB/night — a fraction of Bali or Maldives prices. Search specifically for 'pool villa' to surface hidden gems.
