Categories

Cleanliness
8.9
Multiple reviews explicitly praise cleanliness (e.g., 'מלון מצוין נקי', 'הכל נקי'). One mention of building B smelling of garbage slightly lowers score.
Service
8.4
Many guests call staff friendly and helpful ('צוות מעולה', 'personnel incroyablement sympathique'), but there are isolated reports of shouting and unfriendly staff which moderate the score.
Location
9.5
Location is repeatedly highlighted as excellent/central and close to everything ('Meilleur emplacement', 'central', 'close to everything', direct beach access), making this a standout strength.
Room Quality
7.8
Rooms described as budget/basic with essential facilities; issues noted include hard beds, small size, poor bathroom lighting and thin walls causing noise — overall mixed-to-lower room quality.
Amenities
8.7
Positive amenities include access to two pools via the sister resort, direct beach access, vegetation and sea-view bar; lowered slightly because some services (breakfast/pool) require going to the annex and presence of dogs on the beach.
Value for Money
8.9
Several guests note good value and appropriate price ('תמורה טובה למחיר', 'budget rooms but expected'); overall perceived as good value for location and included access to resort facilities.
Food and Beverage
7.6
Mixed feedback: nice beach/restaurant options and bar views, but breakfast is either expensive or off-site (must use sister hotel's breakfast) and limited on-site F&B, lowering this score.
Overall Experience
9
Overall sentiment is positive with many guests saying they'd return and praising location, cleanliness and access to resort facilities, despite some noise and room shortcomings.

Good value for money
Pros:

Nice pool/beach area, good central location, helpful staff, nice restaurant.

Cons:

Many guests reserve sunbeds already in the morning with towels and don‘t show up most of the day. Some evenings the music from the neighbouring beach club was quite loud.

Excellent facilities and location
Pros:

The access to the associated resort's facilities, the monkey pool was the best part. The location was excellent just by the main strip and with beach access, the resort had 2 very enjoyable pools, bars restaurants very convenient if you just wanted to stay there. The bathroom was very modernized and had a separation glass for the shower (not a given in Thailand)

Cons:

We were assigned to the third floor of the main budget building, and there was no lift, as we were coming and going from the room several times a day, it became quite inconvenient. They could use welcome mats or a thicker feet towel for the entry to the room as it's very easy to drag in sand from the beach.

I will always stay here
Pros:

I have stayed here twice now and absolutely love it. It’s the sister hotel of a luxury beach hotel which is right next to
It so you can enjoy all parts of a 5* hotel for cheaper including restaurants, pools, beach loungers and massage parlour. The rooms are very modern, always clean and the location is right in the centre of all the fun. Couldn’t recommend this more

Cons:

It’s right under the airplane path so can be loud but it’s not too much of an issue and worth it

No te fies de las fotos que el hotel publica, elige bien la habitación.
Pros:

Está muy bien situado y tiene unas instalaciones bonitas. Tiene la playa y la zona principal en primera línea.

Cons:

Me dieron la habitación 513 y está en la peor zona. El ruido que hay por culpa de las maquinas del hotel es horrible y durante todo el día y por la noche es mucho peor. Necesite ponerme tapones en los oídos para dormir. En el área de la piscina hay un puesto donde te dan las tollas, pero al pedir una toalla me dijeron que a mi habitación le correspondía pedirla en la recepción. Disfrute de la piscina sin toalla.

Pros:

Perfekte Lage. Mitten im Geschehen.

Cons:

Je nachdem was für eine Musik in den angrenzenden Bars gespielt wurde, kann es auf dem Zimmer relativ laut werden.

Nothing bad to say about my stay! It was amazing. I will return.
Pros:

Clean and quiet at night despite being right next to Arkbar. You can use the Chaweng Beach Hotel facilities which is lovely! This offers a resort vibe while also being right next to the main road! Staff is lovely and so accommodating! I will absolutely return.

Cons:

I loved everything.

Be prepared for noise in one of the cheap rooms
Cons:

The hotel should clearly state which rooms are affected by noise. I would have paid more if I had known I wouldn’t be able to sleep because of the disco music. This loud music is clearly not a one-time event, so the hotel should display on its site.
