More than worth the money”

The hotel and room are very clean and organized, the maid does a great job and the staff are attentive to problems. Its located in the center of things. We had our own car and GPS and could be anywhere in Hat Yai within 10 minutes of the hotel. That said, we didnt have any hot water for 3 days and I sure hated that. We would go down and tell them, the staff would come to the room and suddenly the hot water worked. As soon as he left the room, the hot water suddenly ended. After two times of this, we gave up and accepted cold showers. The room was number 401, just like the photo. Was it haunted? Who knows. The balcony is nice and the room is large. You lay in bed and see the mountains. The bed is very firm because in Thailand its normal in hotels to have a hard surface to lay on, not a deep cushy bed. But its good, it will straighten out your back! A review said you cannot close the curtains, yes you can, just pull the draw strings! The room was on the street but it was never too noisy and we were there on the weekend. When you close the balcony door, all you hear is the powerful and cold aircon. Everything is old, like old TV, but everything works and in good condition--except hot water at times! We brought our own kettle because the hotel doesnt supply them. They give 2 bottles of water everyday. Wifi worked for phones but not for laptop. Because there is so little English in the hotel, I could not get help for it. For muslims, there is food around but you have to search. I GPSed several Halal locations and tried them. There are a few good ones near the Diana Mall, a tuktuk driver should know, and the prices are OK. One Halal restaurant we found looked nice but charged triple the normal prices. You do find cheats within the Halal environment. The hotel is not exactly nearest the goods markets but with a tuktuk it would only be a few minutes ride. Do go to the markets but it would be most helpful if you have good negotiating skills. We tried and got 60% discounts f

excellent service and clean room at a good price”

well, it was a good hotel to stay for great price. room was very clean without any smell. friendly staffs with good service. easy access to market place (pasar) for shopping which is about 3 minutes by motobikes service, cost around baht. nearest bar would be kiss channel. restaurants are available within walking distance. around 40 minutes from hat yai airport which cost around baht.

Value for money”

If you are looking for 5-star facilities and extremely new deco, please stay elsewhere. Other than that, Tanaphat Hotel is well worth every cent. A no frills hotel but rooms are clean- housekeeping ladies must be commended for keeping the place spotless. I have no complaints for this place with the good price paid for this hotel. The front desk staff are friendly and so helpful. I would stay come back again and again as long as the hotel maintains this price.

good but not the best”

The old version hotel. located a bit far from center Hat Yai. the mattres was so hard not like mattres. The pillow very thin. Good aircond. Good balcony, can seen outseen even there only building. good shower room. easy to find the tuk-tuk or grab. for travell with young children was not recommended for this hotel. average we give 7/10 for this place.

Great value for money”

The hotel was located at a great location for food. There are many hawker stalls at night in front and nearby the hotel. 10 minutes walk to reach Lee Garden and Kim Yoong market. Early check in (6 am) and check out at 12 pm local time. We left our luggage to the receptionist upon check out because we still had a few hours to go before our travel agent came to pick us up. No fee was charged for looking after the luggage. The room rate of the hotel is really cheap and value for money. Free complimentary bottled mineral water and hot water available at ground floor. The bed is a bit hard though. Other than that, everything is above what I had expected for the price paid. Will definitely stay here again when visiting Hatyai in future.

Worth for money”

We managed to get this room at Rm 70/night. Great location 10 minutes walk from kim yong market. Atm machine in front of hotel. 7 eleven just 5 minutes walk. Easy to get grab and tuktuk. What i love about hatyai is they allowed us to early check in. Room also comfortable. Cheap price but tip top condition.

Great location, helpful staff, great customer care”

great, I have to travel to Hat Yai once a month or so and this is where I'll always stay. Great price/value

Friendly, clean, good location”

our fourth or fifth stay at this hotel which is centrally located, clean with friendly staff. hot jug located on ground floor at bottom of the stairs for those who like their morning coffee. good wifi at 10 baht per hour. easy to do a day trip to songhla beach from hat yai. ask for a tourist map from reception.

Had 3 nights of pleasant stay here.”

I eventually went on Songkran which the price already marked up. If go on average day, the price to quality/services it's actually worth it if you wish so save some cash for other usage. Many hot spot here is walking distance are just few minutes to 15minutes away. 7-11 and eatery is just few steps away. The hotel and furniture itself is very old, but all is functioning well and it's quite clean. Wifi is not great, but still OK. And as other reviewer mentioned, bed is hard. Not a bit hard, but it's very hard. But as I'm a easy sleeper, I'm fine with it. Conclusion is., If you don't mind the hard bed and you don't need fancy looking hotel, this is definitely a good deal.

Tip top”

Again and again. When came hatyai tanaphat hotel is my Fav hotel to stay. Near lee garden just walking

Value for money stay”

I like the fact that this hotel has its own ample parking space (I drove into Thailand from Malaysia!), the air-cond is positioned away from blowing directly at us when we lie down in bed, has a small fridge despite it being a budget hotel so that we can still keep some things fresh and cool after buying from the nearby market, the bathroom and the floor area is spacious with a small balcony and window view despite it being a budget hotel. Overall it is a good and enjoyable stay, really value for money. But one thing though, the hotel reception lady insisted that we go upstairs into our room first and unload our luggage while she holds our passports first to record details and says that when we finish unloading we can come down to get back our passport. For safety I won't let our passports go out of our sight, so I insist that I can stay on to wait for her to finish recording things. Instead she showed sour face to the hotel-man supervisor. She should give us a choice to wait.

Overall good.”

I'm on vacation with my family,arrived earlier around 11.30 am and ask if i could check in earlier. The staff allow me in,so much convenient for family with two kids like me.got to rest a bit before traveling around hatyai. The room is quite good, although a bit smelly of cigarette smoke when i first got in. Reminder for traveler,the hotel didn't provide iron so bring your own. the hotel is nearby 7eleven and also have tuktuk standby beside hotel for us to go anywhere around the town. U should bargain with the tuktuk driver before going anywhere. overall, i recommend this hotel with families with low budget.

Nice hotel with helpful staff”

The hotel is nice and clean with good location. Staff are helpful providing information on places to visit in Hat Yai.

The best”

My first time staying in HatYai definitely wont be my last time. Sure the hotel looks old but it is clean. The hotel worker that took us to our room was a good man. He even offered to take us to the tourist attraction. We had a good deal and everyone was happy. THANK YOU

Great location, conveniently located”

The location itself is great, close proximity to Kim Yong market and central Hatyai. While the TV is definitely not LED, the programmes were decent. It has an English channel that runs pretty much latest movies and another channel for football too. Some guests commented that the bed is hard, which is to my liking as a light sleeper. The only drawback I would say is the cigarette stench that comes through the bathroom, even with the use of the exhaust fan, it did not help. This did not occur during the first two nights as there were no guests next to us. However as soon as they checked in, the cigarette stench fills the bathroom.

Descent Hotel in middle of the city, rooms are ok”

tanaphat is right in the city centre, which made it convenient to walk around town. all around the area are shops and local food markets so no transport needed. rooms are ok but don't expect too much, i would say value for money! hot shower, clean bed, not much english spoken and the hotel in general could do a little refurbish (carpet especially).

near city center, comfortable room”

hotel in one of the busy areas, easy to walk to all topics of Hat Yai center, many food shops, guarded car park, clean room, all sanitary equipment in good condition, however no safe available.

Value for money”

The hotel just changed their air conditioner. The air con, water heater, 24 hour fridge, tv and Wi-Fi works well. The room is spacious and clean. There is a wardrobe to hang our clothes, dressing table, 2 chairs, coffee table and bedside tables. Kettle is not available but they provide hot water on level one. The bathroom is spacious and there's a strong ventilation fan. Some newer hotels can be smaller, expensive and don't even have a place to hang clothes. The location is convenient. We can walk to Lee Garden, Kim Yong market, Robinson and many other places. There are several vegetarian restaurants within walking distance. The staff are also friendly and helpful. We always stay here when we come to Hatyai for holiday. We feel homely to stay here.

Exceptional”

This hotel is value for money. It's super cheap and recommended to those who chooses to stay one or two nights in Hatyai. The location of this hotel is good as it is close to the famous restaurants and attractions. During this trip, we walked to one destination using GPS just so we can save money from having tuk tuk. Highly recommended hotel !

Feel at home”

We stay 28 days at Tanaphat hotel. We feel so at home. The staff are friendly & helpful. Two of the hotel staff are part time tuk tuk driver. They never pester guests for business. When we need transport, it's easy with advance booking. We engaged "Ah wood" for our outings to municipal park, loy krathong event, Samila beach, elephant park & airport. Ah wood is honest & reliable. He is always early & wait for us. His fee is also reasonable, we always pay him more for his good service. So there is no worry of getting transport for our outings. Although the building & facilities look old, the lobby & room are very clean, tidy & no bad smell. Housekeeping team is hardworking. Our towels & bedsheets are always clean & smell great! We don't see any ant, bed bugs or cockroach. Every room has its own balcony. We can open the balcony door during the day for some fresh air. Fridge, TV, air con, water heater & WIFI work well. Overall, it's comfortable, clean & value for money to stay here.
