Central and classy with friendly staff.
The doorman was most helpfull. Language was a bit of a barrier at reception. We had the kindest, most friendly waitress in the Resstaurant. Evening meals were very tasty and acompanied by beautifull piano and vocals. The pool was super clean. The room was quite spacious and we were happy with what we recieved. Good value for money.

Not great
The decor and cleanliness wasn't great. The staff where friendly enough but the bed was old and hard and kinda itchy.....worrying?!
Everything we left out got covered in ants and we where on the 6th floor!?
The pool was clean and a good size and depth.
The restaurant however was awful - my partner has a food allergy that we couldn't get across even with it written in the correct language. She had to send the meal back three times and it resulted in her walking out. Really unimpressed....one of the worst stays we had unfortunately.

Great riverside terrace
Very nice hotel with a long history and a comforting feeling that the personnel are a big happy family who are happy to work there. I stayed for 4 nights in a very nice room and enjoyed the local cuisine on several occasions.

misunderstanding on breakfast
at Hotel.com stay breakfast for 2 persons at the price I paid, regardless whether I mention 1 person in booking but when I was there, I ask for 2nd person breakfast, they said cannot. Please do not put breakfast for 2 persons at the higher price.

Old luxury
The hotel is fine but a little outdated. It seems like the luxury was there 20 years ago. However, the pool and the gym areas are nice. Wifi was good, too. And the service is 4* for sure.

Some ups but mainly downs
We had a short 3 night stay and found the staff very helpful, the breakfast was better than expected and the massage service in the spa excellent. However, that is where it ends as the first room we had was clear very run down with many mould, water stain marks in the ceilings and other areas. The second room had been repainted and looked much better and wasn’t bad other than the shower door that kept jamming and coming apart and we seemed to get bites on our bodies each night so we suspect bed bugs.
Overall, it is a very worn down hotel still trying to portray itself as up to date and a premium hotel for Surat Thani but the issues we had and next to useless WIFI that needed a new password and user name daily just shows it has gone beyond its expiry date.

Good hotel. Ideal stop gap
We stayed here whilst on our way to Koh samui. All the hotel staff were professional and friendly. the room was large with all the facilities we needed (hot water, a fridge, tv etc)
They are in the process of building a new lift, so a bit of noise in daylight hours but nothing off putting.
We also had a car, and their car park is massive so no problems at all.
Breakfast was geared towards a Chinese buffet but eggs were available.

The room was very poor
I didn't think much of the surrounding area. Perhaps this just not a good area to stay (Surat Thani). It was a stop gap in between Bangkok and Koh Samui, but I thought it would be worth to check out the area. I saw very expensive cars in the car park which made me think this must be the best Hotel in the area. However, the state of the room was awful. There was a dreadful smell, the furniture was cracked and stained. Cracks in the bathroom meant we had a nice visit from a cockroach. The Restaurant was ok, at least the food was not too bad but a little bit strange.The tables were dirty, the Service was poor due to the dreadful English. I guess it was quite cheap, so can't complain too much. But I wish we would have paid more to stay an extra night in Bangkok or Koh Samui.

Value for money
The room we stayed in was clean, comfortable, fluffy pillows. Breakfast was good. Language was a barrier, reception barely understood english, except for one guy who spoke good english. Outside the hotel, a tuk-tuk is always waiting, but beware he charges the most expensive rates and chases away any tuk tuk that comes near the hotel. Just walk about 100 metres out to the main road and hundreds of tuk tuk will take you to your destination with half price.
