Hotel in zona Archaeological Museum of Kalymnos, Ko Chang

OK why am I giving 3 and not a 5 star rate, for a couple of key points, but let's start with a positive points. Great location, and beautiful property, nice pool (although at the time we visited the pool was green it didn't bother us but it might bother you) and facilities. Nice breakfast, good happy hour. Nice rooms with great balconies. Now into the details that I didn't like. - The room wasn't well clean, since day 1, even when we checked in we didn't have towels and had to wait couple of hours to get towels and after requesting several times. We also noticed that all floors had different cleaning staff, maybe we weren't lucky, we were on the room 233. - Poor and old amenities in the room. We had a super old shower cap in the room with hairs, really unacceptable for a 4 star hotel, and that was it for amenities, and the tray their were supposed to be displayed was dirty with hairs and dust. - somehow the room was missing something, maybe the cleaning part, because it missed the wow factor that it could have. - the hotel promotes tours with elephant riding which in my opinion is BIG NO and unacceptable. - the egg station in the breakfast was working in a strange way, if you wanted a fired egg they had already several done and in a super odd shape, not natural. I don't understand why to have egg station if you don't preper them fresh. - the staff in the reception was not costumer service mind or service minded, maybe they need a workshop for all staff members in this hotel, maybe it's a management problem or still covid recovery problem. I don't know this hotel has such a great potential maybe it's the best hotel in the island and some details are missing. Another annoying point, but this is not the hotels fault is just a warning, so much people taking Instagram pictures everywhere, to the point that it's annoying. People are not experiencing the place instead they are taking pictures to post online, and it kills the vibe. I hope someone reads it and it creates an impact in how this hotel is managed, spec3the cleaning and attention to detail. Would I return yes, again I believe that this is one of the best hotels in the island. This is not a complain althout it might sound, it's more notes for improvement. Hope next time I can give a 5 star rating.

Superb hotel to stay in, very family friendly, beautifully appointed rooms, great facilities, clean and well maintained. The pool and beach are superb and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The restaurant food and beach BBQ were terrific. The children loved every minute of their stay. We loved the fact it was so safe for the children...always someone there watching the water ...both beach and pool. Highly recommended and the views and scenery were gorgeous after a heavy rain tho

This was our fifth visit to this hotel since 2016. The hotel is outdated, physically outdated. The rooms started to just crumble. Outlets fall out, plumbing flows in the wrong place. Mattresses are old. Bed linen and towels are old and have been washed many times. Many rooms are closed due to technical problems and are not available for living. The wooden platform of the hotel has become dangerous for those who weigh more than a centner. In many places the boards fell through, the nails stick out. The pool was redone: the tiles were removed, the walls and bottom were finished with ”plaster”, which fell off safely and lies on the bottom. The new ”King rooms with a balcony” on the second floor are not even up to super-economy: there are lockers for clothes that you borrowed from the gym and they come with a bunch of bracelet keys that you have to carry with you; these same lockers are called a safe; the water in the shower was only cold and very weak; a strong sewer smell in the room, which they unsuccessfully try to block with fragrances; the air conditioner is noisy, because there is no soundproofing; but there is a balcony overlooking the family room opposite. Breakfast spoiled, this can not be called breakfast: coffee - sachet 3in1; cheap sandwich - with a foul-smelling filling, a boiled egg, seasonal unripe fruits in paper trays ... WI-FI works very poorly. Thirty different access points and no speed. There is no management at the hotel, since it is all in GajaPuri, in The Stage there are only technical staff who are not able to resolve emerging issues .. After five days of stay, we were forced to leave this hotel, as it was uncomfortable and dangerous to stay in it. The process of returning the money was delayed for the whole day. Only the active participation of Booking.com and the mention of the tourist police helped to resolve the situation. As a result: the hotel is highly recommended for visiting. For such money you can live in more comfortable conditions! p.s. what's on the street: Tesko mini has closed, Bobby's fruit stand with the cheerful polyglot Ali has closed, family massage in the alley has closed.

The hotel has its own beach. Staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. There was a wide variety of food for breakfast. My room was spacious. However, so many ants were in my room. Water was not hot enough and water pressure was low in the shower. The bathroom had big glass window but the curtain could not be fully closed so that my friend could see me having a bath. TV had no signal so that I needed to ask the hotel to fix it.

The location is seafront not beachfront as seen from photos if you bother to do some simple research. However, the resort provides a man made sand area with furniture overlooking the sea. Alternatively, walk a mere 2 minutes down the main road to access White Sands beach. The property enjoys a 7-11, Macro and beer bar complex nearby. It is only a short walk to White Elephant Sports bar and to restaurants, travel agencies and your typical beach shops down along the main road. The seaside complex provides an infinity pool, a long pool beside the bungalow rooms, beach bar and restaurant where all guests partake breakfast. Both the seaside and hillside complexes have a dedicated reception area. I found staff at both were friendly and probably able to assist you if you have done no research about Koh Chang. On this visit I opted for a hillside room as I was seeking overall value. I had read reviews that seaside rooms can be affected by noise at night emanating from the nearby beer bar complex. My room was situated on the east side of the building (3 floors) and was not affected by any noise at night. I even had a water view from my balcony. My room was spacious and clean. The aircon, fridge and TV worked fine. The wardrobe had hangers with some shelving space. A long bench space with drawers to place your things. A small table and two children was useful. Lighting was very good. The bathroom was also modern looking with segregated shower recess. Good hot water with good pressure. The buffet breakfast was excellent. All the possible food options have you covered including an egg station. Enough seating given the number of guests coming and going. Overall, the resort and my room provided me with what I wanted, a comfortable and quiet stay.

Situato al sud della spiaggia di Sands. La spiaggia è rocciosa, ma un percorso è stato pulito da roccia per permettere l'accesso al fondo sabbioso oltre. Per l'inizio della sabbia solo la spiaggia è necessario camminare solo per circa 50 metri. Il personale della reception era amichevole e lieto.Abbiamo prenotato camere triple per 5 notti a causa della prenotazione tardiva. Immagino che le camere doppie siano una opzione. I edifici sono vecchi ma piuttosto ben mantenuti. La stanza era pulita con uno dei piu' confortevoli letti che abbia dormito intorno alla Thailandia. Tutto funzionava bene. Le signore di pulizia facevano la loro cosa ogni giorno. Il colazione era adeguata. Succhi, caffè, tostapane, uova fritte, omelete, hot dog, cibo tailandese più di abbastanza carburante per l'attività di oggi. Chiunque sia critico per il colazione è solo un IMHO. Il nostro gruppo si è riunito un giorno per pranzo al ristorante. Nessun membro del gruppo si lamenta del cibo. Non ho usato la piscina come persona di spiaggia. Era ben mantenuto con una serie di sollevatori e sedie a ponte fornite. A quel revisore che ha confrontato Banpu con Kacha, dico che sono incomparabili. Perche'? Beh, la proprietà Banpu è stata stabilita molto più a lungo di Kacha. Inoltre, Kacha non è una proprietà di spiaggia e le loro camere, anche se più moderne sono allo stesso tempo molto più costose. In generale, ho trovato Banpu buono valore per i soldi e mi sono divertito qui.

L'hotel è grande e dispone di 2 o 3 piscine. L'intero hotel è diviso su due lati, l'edificio principale e l'edificio ausiliario. L'edificio ausiliario si trova dall'altra parte della strada ed è chiamato sala piscina. Gli amici che hanno prenotato un hotel devono tenere presente che la sala della piscina è in realtà dall'altra parte e non nell'hotel. Le strutture complessive sono relativamente vecchie e alcune camere hanno un odore. L'impressione generale è mediocre. La spiaggia non è privata. Bisogna alzarsi presto per prendere le panchine dell'hotel. Quando si arriva tardi, non ci sono panchine. Penso che sia più adatto a famiglie con bambini, ma non lo consiglio davvero alle coppie. È disordinato, rumoroso e disordinato!

This place is heaven on earth! The welcome at reception sets the tone for the rest of your stay! We arrived with back packs from Pattaya and We were treated like VIPs. Absolute top class! Staff are amazing! Food was amazing. The rooms are outstanding and the local town is warm and friendly! The random visits from monkeys is an amazing addition! But be aware, they actually do creep up on you and open your room doors!! Staff aren’t joking! We’ve stayed on many islands and many places in Thailand but our expectations were exceeded here. The grounds are well kept, the surroundings are superb! My only disappointment was that the tides were high so we didn’t have any beach during our stay! (No fault of Sylvan!) I just hope the cost doesn’t get too high that they price us out of spending another break there next year!

Questo hotel è stato operativo da più di 10 anni. Era buono di nuovo e ancora una buona vibrazione qui. Deve essere la migliore opzione di bilancio sulla spiaggia di Solely. La stanza che mi era stata assegnata era così pulita, bello e aveva un nuovo senso. Grande bagno e frigo nella stanza. Buona cena Ristorante cibo non è male. I cambogani che lavorano là sono amici. Ma immagino che non soffrono di stupidi. Se li trattate bene, vi trattano bene. Se fossi il manager, probabilmente li terrei d'occhio più vicino per assicurarsi che siano gentili a tutti i clienti. Se si intende camminare in città a notte hai bisogno di un torcia. Non lontano ma pericoloso nel buio con le biciclette e le auto che si rivolgono in passato. Molto consigliare questo hotel e ristorante. È sulla spiaggia stupenda. Sand bianco e acqua bello. Non posso aspettare di tornare!

Traveling to Koh Chang on Songkran Day, if the Accor Group uses benefits, it must be considered. Mercure Koh Chang Hideaway booked a Standard room but was upgraded to a Deluxe Seaview room and received Platinum benefits. Quite complete. The room is okay. I like it because I have to pay only 1,402 baht per night. The room is full due to a long holiday. I'm glad I upgraded. I have reserved 3 rooms, there are welcome drinks for all 3 rooms. For dinner, most of the guests leave their stomachs at the Buffet Hotel because it is Songkran Festival. Accor Plus cannot use the discount at all. The price is not expensive, only 530 baht per person, but.. Phra Chuay Thai food is delicious. Anyone staying here recommends trying Thai food. The happy hour here is satisfyingly long from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Anyone who eats the buffet will receive a buy 1 free 1 promotion until 10:00 p.m., very worthwhile. The highlight of this place is a lot of photo angles, and taking beautiful photos, but the beach is not okay, which is a weak point. The sea water is hardly played because there are a lot of rocks. I mostly stay at the swimming pool 100% recommend if anyone sleeps here to relax and snorkel on the last day, come back to swim at the pool, take chic photos and eat buffet 🙂 Breakfast is quite suitable for Thai people, focusing on spicy Thai food. It also has my favorite pizza. The hotel has a Starbucks on the beach but does not participate in a star or membership program. For me, April 13-15 is a rest day. I'm pretty happy here. Let's just say for Accor members or group members. If anyone comes to Koh Chang, recommend here. You can get both nights and points. If there is any problem during your stay, I suggest you don't wait, hurry and share with him. He knows the problem and is ready to take care of it immediately. Come to Koh Chang next time, Mercure is still our choice.
