Please connect to my previous comments regarding 1st night over booking.
Sawadee came straight back to me after reading my complaint with a
very generous reinbursment. |

The rooms are nice and clean although we were disappointed with the
service we received. The front desk staff were not especially friendly.
When we checked in, the room we had requested (1 king bed) was not
available. We had to downgrade to a lesser room to get a king size
bed. In this room, the electricity kept going out and the balcony
door did not lock. The assistance we received to fix these problems
was not satisfactory. We would not recommend it. Please also be aware
that there is another hotel called Karon Beach Resort that is not
the same as our taxi dropped us at the wrong hotel. |

We arrrived in Phuket and were held up at the International Customs
for just over 2 hours...thought for sure the hotel pick-up driver
we were expecting would be long gone..but low and behold he had been
waiting 3 hours for us..we were throughly impressed! The front end
people and the staff at the hotel were more than excellent...from
a warm personal greeting/hotel briefing and refreshing welcome drink
to the service at the breakfast buffet restaurant. The hotel has just
been re-opened after being bought out by Central and is in the process
of being upgraded some more....The rooms were clean and adequate but
far from luxurious...we felt we paid too much (4400 baht/ngt)for the
type of room we had...we are people who do not require luxury just
cleanliness..which the room was but for that kind of money we felt
is should have been fancier..(we had a huge cockroach living in our
room with us who we finally managed to capture and kill on the last
night there)I had asked the hotel to deal with it but they did not
spray or capture!..after our stay here we went to another hotel around
the corner for 2000 baht/ngt and were just as pleased with the room
as we were here. We had a direct reservation with this hotel from
Dec 21 - Dec 28..so we were there a total of 13 nights..we had to
pay for the compulsory New Year Eve Dinner (400 baht/per person)..food
was good but the entertainment was disappointing..Polenisian dancers
and a magic show...we left after the meal and headed to the beach
for the local celebrations...so alot of money to pay for an evenings
supper....cheaper costs right at local restaurants. Had a free spa
treatment at the hotel...professional and luxurious...but did not
re-use...extremely pricy by Thai standards..had our massages at local
salons... |
