Hyatt Regency Hotel, Hua Hin / Cha-am

This is a very pleasant hotel but unfortunately the cons outway the pro's for me personally. You get a smallish room with a glimpse of the swimming pool. Not what I would expect from a hotel of this class. Also I am a business traveller and the internet costs are shocking! I could not believe hotels can still get away with charginf £18.00 per day for something most hotels offer as an incentive free of charge. I was appalled! It also seems that this hotel is just interested in one thing...your money! As mentioned I am a business traveller and often called away at the click of a finger, I was called back to Bangkok on business and had to leave in a hurry 2 days before I should have done, they still charges me a full nights accomodation. Disgusting charge for a hotel to charge someone, don't mind a quarter or at the most half...but this is shameful. I will never be staying here again purely for that one reason alone, and the fact it was a long way from the centre. Not happy.

The club room with the private pool was excellent. The free drinks and snack from 5 to 7pm was a bonus. We love the big pool, slide and small sand pool for the kids. Beach was ok. We didn't swim, the kids enjoyed building sand castle. My wife love the aqua aerobic. Food is very expensive. The seafood buffet sounds more appealing on the brochure than actual. The breakfast buffet needs more variety. But there are a lot of nice and cheaper restaurants in town to try. Relaxing and enjoyable one.

The Hyatt is situated some kilometers outside Hua Hin on the wonderful, clean beach. You need to take a taxi to the center and the hotel has some shuttle services. There are daily activities in the hotel and on the beach you can kite surf or ride horses. For the rest there is not much to do then relax in the sun or swim in the sea or in one of the great pools. The new Barai Spa is wonderful. If you take the Regency Club, there’s a wonderful buffet with drinks and great appetizers.
