Hotel Pantai di Cha Am

The Chinese Restaurant Fu Lue Woman Manager- Som for no apparent reason has been very unprofessionally rude, repugnant and impertinent to me! Not once but every visit of mine is met with such obnoxious attitude. She would tell me that they are very busy and the food would take more than an hour and a half to serve even though the restaurant is not even half full! Whatever I order from the menu she would tell me it’s finished including desserts but then I see others ordering it and it’s being served to them. Also, I have not finished my order she would pretend to assume I have finished ordering and walked away! She would pursed her lips, give me a contemptuous glare and make a “tsk” sound with her tongue when I continued ordering! No one can fathom what kind of service staff would be so vicious and vile in service like Som! She’s a total disgrace to both the hospitality and service industry! Definitely NOT an asset but a TOTAL LIABILITY to the organisation that chose to hire her. One rotten egg spoils the entire basket! I don’t recommend this Chinese Restaurant.

Tara Mantra,ein Hotel was dem Untergang geweiht ist und sich dabei noch gut präsentieren will. Das die Zeiten nach Corona schwer sind,steht außer Frage,aber dann sollte man sich doch über jeden solventen Kunden freuen und symbolisch den roten Teppich ausrollen.Aber nicht in diesem Hotel.Man hat als nicht Thai sprechender Gast auf ganzer Linie verloren,man bekommt immer das Gefühl lästig zu sein und Fragen können aufgrund von Sprachbarrieren auch nicht beantwortet werden.Da wir seit Jahren immer wieder im Tara Mantra zu Gast waren,konnte ich den Zerfall dieses Hotels noch näher miterleben. Die Zimmer sind schmuddelig,nicht wirklich gepflegt,das Bad möchte ich auch nicht näher beschreiben. Das Frühstück wurde von Jahr zu Jahr spärlicher bis es sich heute zu einer Katastrophe entwickelt.Der Frühstücksraum hat jetzt für ein paar Tage geschlossen da nur 3Zimmer in diesem Hotel belegt sind.Daher wurden wir angewiesen die nächsten Tage Frühstück auf das Zimmer zu bestellen.Ist ja grundsätzlich kein Problem, wenn ich in diesem Zimmer die Möglichkeit habe gemütlich zu frühstücken,und nicht wie ein Affe am Couchtisch mein Frühstück zu mir nehmen muss.Mag sein,das ich in der Hinsicht überteagiere,aber dassind keine 4 Sterne wert. Schade,aber dieses Hotel hat 2Stammgäste verloren,aber ich denke das merkt das Personal gar nicht.

We had a super decent stay at the hotel. Thought it will be better to have more restaurants and spa facilities, the food quality was second to none. We had breakfast buffet and dinner at the restaurant, the breakfast had so many choices and the quality was great. For the dinner, the Italian dishes were excellent and out of our expectations. Highly recommend to have it a try. I would love and must come again for a longer stay. Their sky beachfront room were too good to be true.

Returning yet again, have been staying here for over 10 years, missed 2021 due to COVID19 regulations. Very spacious hotel in a beautiful setting, perhaps slightly worn around the edges but the pool and gardens are immaculately kept. Spacious room overlooking the pool and beach. The entrance lobby is stunning with seating areas to relax. The village nearby is struggling since covid and we try and patronise it as much as we can. The local family run restaurants serve traditional Thai cuisine at extremely reasonable prices. The hotel is also conveniently located for Hua Hin and Cha Am easily accessible by taxi. We will definitely return.

Second time staying here, and it does a decent job for us as a stopover on the way from Samui to Bangkok. Rooms and bathrooms are comfortable and work okay. Staff are helpful. Parking is a bit small, and this time we had to park at a sister hotel a few hundred meters away (but a shuttle takes you there/back). Very popular with local travelers and the hotel was pretty full when we stayed. Local area appeals to Thai tourists, but less appealing to us -- personally not my scene for longer than a stopover night. One very odd thing for such a hotel: at the buffet breakfast they limit guests to one egg per person -- a first in 50 years of travel (eggs cost about 5THB in Thailand!).

piscine grande et agréable jardin sympathique chambre spacieuse au rez-de-chaussée entretien général des locaux à améliorer très sensiblement Pas de management des employés très sympathiques mais souvent livrés à eux-mêmes Petit déjeuner triste dans des locaux rouillés Il y avait avant la Covid un fameux restaurant et celui qui est présent actuellement est à éviter. Le prix de l’hébergement : nous avons eu l’impression d’avoir payé très cher. Hôtel en cette période essentiellement occupé par des Norvégiens qui sont intarissable sur l’absence de maintenance des locaux et des équipements. L’échelle de la piscine a perdu une marche, il y a trois ou quatre ans, mais cela n’a toujours pas été réparé. Autre détail, l’hôtel ne savait pas ce qu’était une lampe de chevet, seul un plafonnier éclairait la chambre.

Hotel was very nice and cosy, especially the pool side is great. We had our room at pool side which has nice view and sunshine also to own balcony. Cleaniness in the rooms is very good, cleaning in daily basis. Though, pidgeons everywhere does their duty on the balcony and elsewhere which is a bit unconfortable. Restaurant(s) and bar(s) are good, of course just a bit more pricy than on the street, but comfortable. Breakfast is very rich, though some products were our frequently, like juices. Location just a few meters from beach is great and all possible shops and great selection of restaurants all over. We liked a lot of this hotel and really can come back again!

Stayed for 7 nights during Songkran..first room they gave us was so small no where to put your clothes and no where to swing yer cat.. asked about another room was shown the one next door with twin beds and more than double the size with a wardrobe and drawers but of course more money so we took it..i booked the top floor (3) as i prefer not to listen to people stomping and moving furniture above me..unfortunately it was not what i expected..i knew there was no one next door so why was i listening to the constant chatter of people and a tv until gone 1am..well it appears that it was from the room across the hallway and thats because the roof void above the ceiling was empty space with no partitioning so for the whole stay it was constantly noisy from every room on every floor every night until early hours and starts again at the crack of dawn..i might add that the ceilings were made from timber with gaps nothing solid..wifi didn't work in the room very well hit and miss..pool wasn't very inviting in the day time looked very murky looked better at night when the lights were on..the cleanliness was not upto my standards..had to ask them to stop watering the garden one day so that i could take a shower..sprinklers on no shower in yer room..so for those reasons i would not recommend or stay again....

прекрасный отель, очень чистый, тихий, если только вы отдыхаете не в выходные, когда приезжают местные, тогда на улице шумно, но в 23.00все утихает. отель понравился соотношением цены и качества, есть, бесплатные кофе Нескафе и галеты, кипяток, номер большой, чистый, ванная удобная, внимателтный персонал. понравилось тут жить, рекомендую для бюджетных туристов!

How sad people give negative reviews of a hotel where all the staff go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable.. If this street is not to your liking, book somewhere else, all hotels are reasonable. Room was EXCELLENT. Cleaned every day, bed linens and towels changed daily. We are just making our THIRD reservation to this EXCELLENT hotel. Thank you Frederic and staff......
