Slightly disappointing
Nice room and the hotel is conveniently situated, close to the action and the beach without it being on top of it.
5.3
I booked a Junior Suite for a week, expecting a little bit of luxury. The room was spacious but lacking in niceties, it was a bit basic.
A number of staff were a little offhand and not the normal friendly Thai staff you expect.
I was also a bit taken aback to find I couldn't get a second key for my room or an iron
My overall impression was it was average.
I will not stay there again

Good Hotel
Free internet, clean modern rooms, good breakfast, good pool area, location is quite central.
9.3
This is a good choice in the mid range. Safe bet. For the money one of the best places you could stay at. Nearby Orange and Kat Hotel also look OK at similar rate but no pool. Beach a 3 minute walk.
Restaurant Tip:
5 minute walk to cheap but good local restaurants right on the nice beach.

Great Budget Accommodation
Right next to the beach... near everything... very clean rooms... ok breakfast, but its Thailand =) so it was good.

Great Hotel.... really good location as it is a 5 minute walk to the beach (if that)... it is near to everything but no noise from the busy night life. Scooter rental outside your hotel. I would stay here again and again.... staff were nice, but some had problems with the english language so it may come across as rude, but they were terrific.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Definatly do the Phi Phi Don Tour ( I paid 800 Baht) and it was the speedboat tour of monkey beach, and phi phi leah and don!!! and if your lucky you will get "Tony" such a funny tour leader... Patong is a GREAT part of the Island and don't let anyone tell you that it is unsafe... as I travelled solo and had no problems and met some great people. =)

Huge Bed close to beach

8.7
Stayed there before going on a tour and also on our way to the Full Moon Party, was a really nice hotel especially for the price. Expected less than we got so very happy. If your wanting full on luxury this isn't the place but its 3 minutes walk from the beach and about a 15 minute walk from the main street in town.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Make sure you tip when you go to the bar on the beach, you will be thoroughly looked after

Nice, New, Not big hotel~
nice and clean, near to the beach, breakfast is good
8.3
It is only 2 min's walk to the beach and very near to a SeaFood Court as well. Quite surroundings but maybe a little bit far if you go to bars every night. There is a small swimming pool on the roof. Free wifi provided. Not big hotel and the staffs are very nice.

Location, Price, Free Internet, Free Breakfast

The location of this hotel really couldn't have been better. It was about a 5 min walk from the beach and about a 10 min walk from Bangla road. We liked it because it was away from the noise of the main areas. The free breakfast every more was very welcomed and the internet was great except that you needed to get a new password code every day.
We stayed for about 5 nights in this hotel in the Superior room and in the Deluxe room for 1 night. The Deluxe room is worth the price is you're planning on spending time resting in the room. The room is quite a bit bigger and the bathroom is a lot bigger too with a separate bathtub. The superior room was a little small by north american standards but was adequate for 2 people. Initially upon entering the room, everything appears really nice but upon further inspections you will be able to see the stains on the walls and that the sheets are not that clean. There were some old stains on my sheets and a cigaratte burn hole.

What a gem
Modern, clean rooms
Close to beach
Buffet breakfast excellent
9.3
We had an excellent stay here and would definitely return. The staff are friendly and helpful. The pool on the roof is excellent but sometimes they ran out of towels. Free use of computers and internet very handy. Only about 2 minutes walk to the beach and even nearer to a street full of bars and restaurants. The hotel restaurant very reasonably priced and good food.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Next door to the hotel a very helpful tour organiser

We really enjoyed this hotel. We found it to be of excellent value and we loved its location. The breakfast buffet was really good and the rooftop swimming pool was lovely with gorgeous views of the city. We will definitely stay here again!
