Definitely has potential”

This was our third trip to Ayutthaya with young children. Previously stayed closer to the train station but wanted to be within walking distance of town this time, which this is (about 20mins walking with two oldies and two under 5s). Pete was very welcoming and spoke excellent English. The staff were all very friendly. Breakfast was minimal, no options, we were just presented with fried eggs and toast and a huge platter of fruit. My 4 year old had wanted sausages which the lady must have overheard and I'm pretty sure someone rushed to the local 7/11 for some which was lovely of them! As previous reviewers have mentioned, the accommodation really needs a big sign on the building with the breakfast room in which on the main road - we were lucky that our tuk tuk driver paid attention to the numbers of the buildings as we would never have noticed the tiny sign. The building is newly renovated, clean and there is a lift even though it's only ground, 1st and 2nd floor. There are some split level floors off of each stairwell which could do with a strip of tape or something to alert people before they trip over them! The room was spacious. The curtains were thin and not particularly functional. The bed was firm which didn't bother me but I could see that it might some people. In both rooms the beds were directly under the blast of the a/c units so we got pretty cold even with is set at 26'c. The bathrooms could do with a shelf for the toiletries that they provide. One of the rooms didn't have any tea or coffee which must have just been an oversight. We both had to plug in the fridges which we thought was odd - perhaps an energy conservation measure? Most of the literature was in Japanese and the only maps of Ayutthaya they had didn't have street names so we had to source one elsewhere. I hope that they make some changes based on feedback and I'd give it another go. Good luck with your venture Pete!

Helpful staff and close to many temples and ruins”

This hotel provides most of the basics that you need. The rooms were clean and the AC was very good. Same day laundry service was provided and was extremely cheap. For being in a smaller city in Thailand, the wifi was really good. There were a few very good restaurants near the hotel as well, but most of them close quite early. If you're looking for food after 8pm, it can be difficult. I arrived late, around 8:30pm and had a hard time finding food. Otherwise, this is a very good place to stay if you visit Ayutthaya.

Trendy...”

The worst thing I could say about AYX is it's hard to find, no matter from Suvarnabhumi or within Ayutthaya, it's relatively new, which is not necessarily a bad thing. The owner/manager was very attentive to all customer needs, concerns and requests. Laundry is included, first time experience in any hotel, bicycle use is also included, as well as the in room Wi-Fi which is speedy. Bundle that with the price and it's very good value for the dollar. Across the street from 12 Bar and Red Coffee House which have live music every night, right behind a row of restaurants and sidewalk cafes. 7-Eleven and ATM a less than a minute by foot, tuk-tuk and mopeds even closer, it was sunny so it was great, might be different during rains though. Definitely in an area with some revival efforts. Really needs a big sign with the name on it, and hotel cards with map and directions in Thai. Rooms were clean, bedding firm (very firm, but I prefer them that way), furniture in rooms is scarce (but that may be only in the room I was in, but not a big deal for me). Great experience for me in Ayutthaya, temples were walking distance although I was not there as a tourist.

Great location and Quiet Room”

The Avail is located in a quiet area. That does not mean there isn't anything around. In fact, it is a few moments walk to Wat Mahathat. The room was clean and modern. I really enjoyed the shower pressure and comfortable bed. The staff were helpful. Parking at the Avail can be a bit difficult if it is busy, but other than that, I really enjoyed staying at the Avail.

Exceptional”

when we arrived to the room there was some stuff left in the fridge. Not a big deal. The real issue I had with the place was all the insects. Very small non biting bugs that just got everywhere. I put on my glasses and from mosquitoes flying around until I finally figured out that was just tiny bugs walking around on the lens of my glasses period kind of gross. nice things about this place is that it was very close to a really cool restaurant called The Coffee House. Also it's a very fast walk from where the bus drops you off.

Hotel suitable only for adults with no children”

we arrive nearly 10pm at night, unable to find the hotel as it was pitch dark and its the quiet area of ayutthaya. front desk staff not in, waited 15minutes , my toddler was screaming at the top of his voice as he's tired from the trip. room is decent, the aircon is very strong even at minimum fan , breakfast cooked by old lady is excellent.

3 nights in Ayutthaya ”

We arrived at 2 pm and found our triple family room was not ready...after a hot 4 hour train ride we weren't impressed. We asked why not & both reception ladies could not supply us a reasonable answer that made sense. On offer was 2 separate rooms without a family door between them...no good for an 11yo in anyones language. Then we were told our room would be ready at 4pm and we could use an interim room till then...better than sitting in the hot lobby so we took it. Finally we could move into our family room and it didn't disappoint. With a large table, tv area with lounge, an attached 2nd bedroom complete with en-suite, we were impressed. The 3 air-conditioning units worked a treat. We could finally unpack and settle. Breakfast was held in the cafe on the street front. A comfortable room with bright decor. No menus here, we were just dished up a western style cookesd breakfast with coffee, juice and a fruit and yoghurt platter to finish, very nice. Although they're called serviced apartments apparently they didn't have a 2nd key so nothing got serviced that day. We let them in the next day to assure us of some water and toilet paper. Overall the place is very clean and staff try their best to overcome the language barriers. We would stay again.

All includsive”

This hotel is down a side lane with a small sign on the gate. It is easy to pass on the main road. Newly built, it is needless to say that everything works. But there is lack of some furniture in the rooms. Clean and comfortable rooms provided for a restful stay. Bicycles are free for use. Your laundry can also be done with no extra charges. I gave that ago and was amazed it was done in the late afternoon when I returned from a day tour. Having just handed it to the staff only on the morning. Breakfast in served in a different building just next to it along the main road. Western breakfast with a plate of fruit to complete the meal. The famous temples are just mins walk away. So i have no complains about the location.

Good Location & Friendly Staff”

The Avail location is its top advantage. Close to the drop off point where the mini-vans come from Bangkok, it is also close to the main attractions like Wat Ratchaburana, Wat Maha That. The Ban Lan night market is also just 10mins walk away. Essentially, it is in the heart of everything - food (Earl Thai restaurant, Burinda, etc) , attractions, 7-11 is just down the street and don't forget to make a stop at Mango House for the best Mango smoothies ever! Towards Wat Ratchaburana at the junction.

AYX stay”

This is a new building located of the main road, there is very little signage, making it difficult to find. We were welcomed with a cool glass of water by very helpful staff. The rooms were modern with a lovely modern ensuit bathroom which had a bit of an odour coming from the drains, the bedroom was pleasantly decorated and relaxing, but the bed was rock hard, resulting in poor sleep. There was a good fridge,tv, and storage space. A pleasant stay except for the bed. The breakfast was served, and cooked as you waited, one of the best I have had yet.

Good deal and wheelchair accessible with help”

Apart from the hard bed, this small hotel is a good deal. Staff is very accommodating and helpful, they speak some English and are very friendly. They serve a decent breakfast just make sure to tell them how you like your eggs done. Room is small but clean and the AC works well as within minutes the room went from hot to cool. The bathroom is small but it’s ok and the hand held bidet is practical. The elevator wasn’t working when we got there as I think the accessible room is on the 2nd floor but I’m not sure if it’s really a wheelchair accessible room. They gave us a complimentary breakfast as compensation for the elevator not working. To get inside the hotel there’s a steep and short ramp and the same goes to access the small step from the lobby to the main floor. To get inside the room there’s about a 5cm step and to get in the bathroom it’s a 2-3cm step down. I have a small foldable power chair (EZ Lite Cruiser that’s about 25kg) and 57cm (22.4”) wide.

Exceptional”

walking distance from ayutthaya ruins and several good restos/eateries/bars. friendly staff. somewhat hard beds :o

Top hotel in Ayutthaya!”

Had a great stay at The Avail! Very helpful staff! The location is near the temple with the Buddha face in the tree! Many restaurants and cafe around!

Lovely little place. ”

Nice hotel , within walking distance to the temples and Ayutthia historic park. Only let down there was no facilities to sit and wait rest rather than your room. A lovely little sun deck would be ideal. Other than that the rooms are of a nice standard and location superb value for money.

There was no good point except close to the Chao Prom Market”

Compared with other hotels around Ayutthaya or Bangkok, the price was incredibly steep. In the reception room and the aisle to the guest rooms, air condition was stopped and it was very hot. And staff didn't prepare the change when I payed 1,000 Baht bill. Moreover, the room key was only one so that inside the guest room was always unbelievably hot. I don't want to stay this gueat house any more.

Great location!”

our first night we couldn't open our room with the keycard. Had to wait for over half an hr for the staff to come. Other than this incident, we were satisfied with everything else!!! Free bicycle!!! Great location, close to everywhere!!! Recommend!

Great location with good condition”

Very close to Wat Mahathat and Old City Cafe. Lucky that there are Chinese New Year special celebration at the main road outside hotel during the night we were staying. We do enjoy the night!

Nice place”

No breakfast options. Rooms good in convenient location. Was a bit condused at their demand for a cash deposit even though I booked and paid with a credit card.

Decent”

Was a nice hotel to stay at apart from The very thin walls, i did a pit stop here for one night travelling up to Chang mai.. location wise-there was only one resturaunt open in the evening, roads looked pretty unsafe as it was dark and no street lamps available so I decided to go bed early as I was exhausted... my neighbor next door decided to have a sexual night to himself all night!!! I mean all night!!!! I didn't sleep a wink! That plan to rest , went down the drain... but on a good note, the hotel hired bikes for free so I got to explore the area which was a plus:)

Strategic location ”

It is located near to the famous Wat & nearby have restaurant & cafe available. Overall is good.
