Baan Bayan Hotel, Hua Hin / Cha-am

So what makes this place so great? It doesn't feel like a cookie cutter hotel where you are a number. It has a traditional feel with lovely rooms, wooden floors, airy space and awesome bathroom. Loads of storage space and a great fruit platter on arrival. Hotel is built over the beach with a walk down. Beach is clean compared to other areas of Hua Hin. Awesome mall across the street if you want food and snacks and shopping. Shuttle to night market. Lovely restaurant next to the pool at night the lighting in the trees is very romantic. I can imagine a great wedding location. They have a house cat and care for it which I appreciated. So many stray dogs and cats in Thailand that made me sad. As an animal rescuer I really appreciated that this one little cat was so loved by the hotel that I would stay here again for this fact alone. I know it's odd but it says a lot about people how they treat animals so they get big bonus points because of this. Kitty escorted me to my room every night too. Staff are so nice and polite and didn't seem to have their hands out constantly like in other Thailand hotels. Bird got me a breakfast to go when I had to leave early for Bangkok flight. Please can I go back?

Good location , quiet and beautiful beach , good and quick service ,delicious food and comfortable room. If you want the high personality and good warming service, I think Baan Bayan can cover your need.

The hotel is very well located, right on the beach and across the road is a big shopping mall. The town centre is a 10 -15 minute walk from the hotel. The room I had was very spacious and comfortable, with beautiful wooden floors. The food in the restaurant needs improvement, but there are so many restaurants nearby that this problem can easily be overcome. Overall it was a pleasant stay.
