Its location in Hua Hin was good as we didn't neet to take any taxi or tuktuk to go out for dinners or shopping.
Nice big pools ( 2 of them).
Breakfast could be improved.
Communication in English was very limited. If you want to be in the center of town, the location is good. But, not close to the beach.
Great pools with pool bar/restaurant.
Walking distance from Bus Terminal and Railway station.
Restaurant Tip : Great bakery very close with free Wi-fi.

Location, Swimming pool, Big rooms Poor room design, Hotel not on the beach, Breakfast not very good Tanawit Hotel is centrally located and is much nicer than I expected, the room was spacious but poorly laid out, the bathroom had a similar problem. The room looked over the swimming area which is quite pretty with 2 pools and a jacuzzi. Breakfast is very basic and is a bit of a let down. Overall, this hotel is what it says it is, 3 stars, good if you want to explore, not good if you want to relax on the beach.
Restaurant Tip : Food in Market very cheap

The hotel is in a quiet location.
Clean rooms with decent bathroom.
The hotel and its rooms fixtures and fittings are looking dated and tired, they need to refurbish the place. Nice quiet locality in a no through road, which does not suffer from traffic. Close enough to walk to the night markets, down town or to the bar area.
The hotel whilst clean, is looking tired and is in need of refurbishment. A great outdoor pool area.
Friendly & helpful staff.

Centrally located, clean and inexpensive. Very poor breakfast. Lazy and inattentive front desk staff. We stayed only two days in Hua Hin. The rooms were moderate in size but very clean with bathrooms a little on the small side. When the hotel is busy the two small elevators will have difficulty coping. The beakfast was basic, but there is a good bakery 100 metees away. All in all a good inexpensive hotel suitable for the quiet season.
Travel tip : The nearby bakery offered good service and quality breads and pastries as well as a cooked brekfast.

incompetent staff, lots of technical problems in the room, lack of cleanliness, rather poor breakfast The rooms are quite o.k., although the cleanliness left much to be desired, and the balcony was full of bird droppings. Part of the hotel was under renovation.
I had a number of technical troubles in my room: On two occasions the aircondition in my room did not work in the morning, and the management sent somebody to fix it (but only late afternoon). During the last night there was a leak from the aircondition, and water entered all over the cupboard, where I had not only stored all my clothes and books, but also 3 bottles of the best red wine which I had bought from a nearby winery.
When I opened the cupboard first thing in the morning, the water had soaked the carton box and the bottles fell out and broke. Parts of my clothes and luggage was soaked in red wine (in addition to the water leaking from the aircon).
I immediately informed the management. I did not even ask for any compensation for all the soaked clothes, but just for a reimbursement of the cost of the 3 bottles of wine (1.700 Baht). The staff was friendly, but totally helpless and inefficient (partly due to language problems). Only after several hours they got hold by phone of the General Manager who refused compensation, but told the staff to offer one bottle of South African wine.
If you want a truely relaxing holiday, stay elsewhere!

Bad service
If late, not much breakfast We did not have a good start as this hotel. Since our son is over 12 yrs we had to pay extra, and that is ok. What was not OK is that they insisted to put in one extra bed even we said it was ok with the two twin beds. They told us it was against the hotels rule not to put in one extra bed if the child was above 12 yrs. This stupid discussion gave us a very bad impression of the hotel.

good location, quiet environment, friendly personnel. This is the 4th time I spend in Huahin; previous hotels were closer to the beach, however these don't prove to be more attractive as the beach is so near.
I enjoyed the pool and found the personnel very helpful. During the stay their was maintenance to the building, so in the afternoon there was drilling and hammering which interfered with my afternoon nap.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : rent a car and go inland!

Nice swimming pool, rooms are new if not a little small but perfect for a couple. Breakfast buffet is decent My room was opened at 12.30am in the morning while we were sleeping. Thankfully, we used the chained. Since the corridor lights were closed, I was not able to see who it was. We asked for help from the reception & got no help. The security camera was not working (strange). Reception refused to give us name of the hotel manager. Seems like she was protecting someone. Security is a big issue at this hotel especially if it seems like this is an inside job but since the video was erased, hard to determine what really happened. Good location smack in the small city of Hua Hin. The beaches though in the city are crowded and not so clean. If you are really there for the beaches, try hitting those further away from the city.
It is really too bad certain things happened during my stay which really prevented me from truly enjoying my experience at this hotel. The owners seem to have done quite a bit of renovation but staff lacks accountability.
Hotel Feature Tip : The hotel is within walking distance from the train and bus station, 1 km at most. So when you arrive, don't bother paying for the buses, motorcycles etc. Just walk and ask for direction from the locals. Everyone will try to help you as much as they can.

Well located for the night life. 10-15 minutes to the beach. Room very clean, bed very comfortable. Breakfast is not good. Instant coffee! Problem with the shower, water not hot long enough. The Tanawit Hotel is a good choice for a family. Close to everything at max 10-15 minutes walk. The furniture is good quality and it is very clean. As i said the American breakfast is cheap. So I did not try dining over there. There are so may very good restaurants around (Italian, French, Thai, etc).
Nightlife Tip : 10 minutes from the night life and the hotel do not bother you with ladies.

There is point staying in this hotel when there are so many others in the area that offer service and better rates. Receptionists cannot understand English fluently, so-called room service provided by franchised restaurant in another block. Receptionist suggests one go there physically and order as they have no menu... No toothbrush, only offer one piece of hand soap, and small bottle each of bath gel and shampoo. Have not heard of elecric kettle and said they did not have one when requested. No newspaper despite earlier requeste. Stay in a hotel. This is not a hotel. I purpose had the hotel folder opened on top of television set. For the three remaining nights I was there, folder was not touched!
Travel tip : Do not stay here.

We only stayed one night. We had forgotten our voucher but there was no problem to check in. We told them we made a booking through Agoda and they immediatly found the necessary papers. We would definitely stay there again.

Location in town. Pools, the staff. Cleanliness. This is the sixth time for us at this hotel. It was absolutely perfect from the start, but has nevertheless become better and better. Location is central but quiet and peaceful. Cleaning is extremely effective and fix in 5 minutes perfectly. Price cheaper by Agoda (also for recurring guest). The staff is always helpful and fixes everything you need. The new pool is great glory. The rooms spacious and quiet.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Location is approximate the night market.

Location, the hotel is to give people outside in a clean and quiet feeling. Swimming pool open daily from early end. I stayed two nights in September, gave me the feeling is clean and comfortable. There are two very praised swimming pool, the rooms spacious and very clean, a panoramic view, very attentive waiter friendly, the hotel location in the town center, regardless of diet, shopping are very convenient, is a quiet, comfortable resort hotel!
Restaurant Tip : The hotel's breakfast is a good choice.

The hotel is in a quiet side street, yet very centrally located. I lacked Lipovitan or an energy drink in the refrigerator (but coffee available) Large beautiful and comfortable rooms. The bathroom has a window to the outside and a window to the interior (), each with venetian blinds. Absolutely beautiful design and Lichtdurchflutung possible. A new permanent seat sofa in good position for the large screen TV. Use enough space between all furniture pieces in place to easily get to the room. Außendachbereich The swimming pool is built with 2 spacewise generous.
Travel tip : Scooter rentals and other services directly in the vicinity
