    2 star hotel at best, but comfortable enough
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Double Room with Mountain View
    • Stayed 1 night

    There isn’t a bedside lamp or switch to turn on/off the lights. Budget furniture: inadequate for more than one guest at a time. The single white plastic chair and white plastic coffee table were serviceable but I would have preferred something of better quality. The fridge is too small for more than 2 bottles of water. There is only a small fridge in reception for any late-night soft-drinks and no restaurant or cafe at all in the hotel.

    The hotel is 2-star, nothing more. Having said that I was able to relax and getting around wasn’t a problem. The room was spacious and functional with plenty of natural light. The bed did the job although, I suspect some would find the mattress too hard. The safety deposit box is big enough to secure a laptop and other valuables. The air-con did its job and wasn’t too loud. I can’t really comment on the street noise as I was there during a Buddhist holiday and the bars were shut. The swimming pool is a good size but the seating area is very limited for the potential amount of occupants in the hotel. Plenty of places to eat nearby and a Mini-Big C for other purchases.

    The room had been partially renovated (new bed, floors, bathroom tiles) and partially not (the most worn out curtains, closet, desk and bathroom door I've seen). The overall style was classic/neutral but then the chair and coffee table were white worn out plastic outdoor furniture and completely out of place. Two clothes hangars. No hand soap.

    The room was spotlessly clean, with silent and efficient aircon, good water pressure and temp, great bed (though hard) and pillows, exceptionally quiet, beautiful views. The staff was extremely nice and helpful. The location was better than it looked from the map: the hotel's Soi (94) continues straight to a quiet part of the beach (15-20min walk) and Soi 94 to 88 north of railway turned out to be the best night life area in Hua Hin, with a good mixture normal bars, lady bars, large bar complexes like Wonderland (6min walk), locals/Thai nightclubs, and a huge night food/drink market; far better area for a night out than the red-light touristy Soi 80 and Soi Pintabaht.

    the poor drainage in the shower. it would flood before the water had heated up and you had get out before the water ran into the bedroom.

    nice and clean, perfect location for what I needed to do.

    The furniture was in very poor condition and definitely needed replacing. Cleanliness wasn't great and there were a lot of ants in the bathroom and in certain areas in the bedroom. I only stayed 1 night but would have raised this issue with the manager if I'd stayed longer

    The location is good as you are near all the bars and restaurants etc on soi 94, but it is also quiet enough should you need. The beach is about 20 minutes walk. I had a great view from my room overlooking Hua Hin. The room was big and bright and the bed was comfortable.

    Having a ground-floor room was too noisy for me, and i ended up purchasing earplugs! Will ask for higher room next time. All taxi drivers find it hard to locate. Didn't have breakfast.

    Not a bad choice for travelers with many restaurants/bars nearby., Lovely pool for the use of guests.

    Can be noisy at times from other guests.

    Large rooms with a large balcony and views over Hua Hin. Good location to bars and restaurants in soi 94. It had everything you needed, but everything was getting a bit tired. It is quite a walk to the beach. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
