Corto
Maltese Resort, Chaweng Beach
The room was comfortable, clean, and exactly as pictured in the web-site.
There were great beachside restaurants a short walk away and at nite
it was quiet but easy to get to the action. I d stay there again,
no problem. |

Hotel is nice built, the rooms are cosy and furnished with originale
taste (the TV is bit old and small). The tree in front of the beach
provides great shadows and the greek salad were good Consider the
relatively high price, a better service was expected for the following
points Problems: - at check out they asked for extra charge of 3%
for credit card payment (nobody advised nor in web site/ nor at check
in) - for days a neighbour with evident psycho (or drug?) problems
was left in his room doing a mess without any body doing something
(since 6-30 am music in loud volumes, very loud crazy no sense shouting
alone, launching and crashing of items (glass/ bottles?). We were
scared - hotel staff hammering at 7 am to fix some hut frames - no
enough beds for the guests on the beach The staff at the bar was fine/
At the reception staff was a bit too much inflexible (no 2 hours late
check out as we were advised room would have been taken soon from
new guests... room was still empty after 3 hours) |

Ok place, room was great for three kids family (good space for money
value), stayed in 56sqm bungalow. Nice unusual (for region) design.
Pool area was ok. The staff are really great, very helpful (didn t
meet the owner though). On negative side: Resort needs some paintjob
here and there, all chairs are in need of cleaning. Beach outside
suffers from low tide in early july. Restaurant slightly overpriced
but food was good. Summary: Ok value for money for a family who don
t want to stay in central Chaweng |

The Corto Maltese Room was a disappoinment; the electrical wiring
was improper and produced electrical shocks upon handling. The rooms
were wore down and badly required maintenance and upgrading to provide
safe and proper housing. The bar/restaurant venue was regarded as
an unsafe area as the support structure clearly was damaged by rot
and decay and could collapse any time. A heavy lamp fell down and
smashed a table while we were in the room; by pure luck nobody sat
with this table during the incident. The most alarming was to notice
the manager s attitude towards HSE at the venue; which explains why
I would not recommend the hotel to anybody before major improvements
are undertaken and implemented. The resort area was nice though, as
was the locally employed service personnel. |

Run down but going through slow renovations by owner. We stayed in
the adjoining rooms. Many problems in 1 room: aircon old, no cable
tv tuned in(we had to do it), power fault which was eventually fixed
but very inconvenient. Bathrooms not the cleanest and drain smelled.
Towels and sheets were stained. Breakfast was very basic and minimal
variety. Pool and beach were nice. Wouldnt stay here again until the
renovations are complete. Staff and cleaners very friendly and helpful. |

Corto Maltese Resort, Chaweng Beach
After spending a lot of money on this hotel we expected somewhere
really nice for our last nights in Thailand. But corto maltese was
expensive and very bad value. The service was very poor for the price
we were paying. The bugalows looked nice , but ours smelt horrible,
with a mouldy ceiling. The smell contamnated everything in our bags.
At lunch it was very quiet and our expensive meals took over an hour.
When we were un-happy and asked if we could check out after the first
night, all we had payed for, they were extremely rude and wouldn t
let us, and would simply charge our credit card if we did leave. Especially
rude was the snooty French owner who was watlzing around and wouldn
t talk to us about our problem. Instead he left his Thai employee
to take the wrap. In Thailand we have stayed in nicer places for literally
a tenth of the price. |

The bungalow are superbly decorated, and have all the Western confort
expected of a big hotel. But what make this place amazing is the staff,
I made friends with all of them, they are open, honnest, fun individuals...
they are my friends ever since... |

We stayed there 3 nights and we have some comments to make. 1- There
is pratiquely nobody at the reception so if you need something you
can wait quite a while. But the manager when he s there is very efficent.
2- The room have seen better days. The picture on the website must
have been taken many years ago. We can t say it was dirty but the
couch, the bed and the room in general were let say old!!! Surely
not as nice as on the picture on the website. 3- The pool is nice
but very small 4- The main disappointement was the beach in front
of the resort. You cannot really swim and the beach is not as nice
as further south. We paid a certain amount of money and feel that
we did not get our money worth. |
