Hotel berhampiran Wat Ko Kaew, Chumphon

Making our way down the coast, we decided to stay here for 3 nights after a train trip from Hua Hin. This hotel seemed the best located not far from the town, about 10 min walk actually although they offer complimentary bycles which we used a couple of times as well as hired a scooter for a day. 7eleven not far at all. Hotel setting was lovely actually creating a somewhat jungle feel. Pool was a good size and clean. Cafe on site was really quant with pretty good coffee. We are vegetarian and also do not eat onion and garlic and they were able to adjust some items on the menu for us and must say we're delicious. We ate here every night. The pricing is not expensive and reasonably priced as well as beers and drinks. Breakfast is provided here. Its fairly basic but enough variety of Western and Asian. How much can yiu eat anyway. We booked the cheapest standard room. It was Standard but pretty good and clean for the price inclusive of breakfast. Lets say, compared to some Motels back in Australia, it was way better and way cheaper. The only cons was these rooms did not have in room safe, the bed a little hard, only thai channels on tv and no coffee and tea provided, only kettle and cups. We didn't ask for any though as we had our own. Rooms above looked bigger as they have a balcony and they have Villas that looked really nice. The town is about 30 minute drive to the ferry pier. We are glad that we didn't book accommodation close to the pier as that area looked a bit distant from anything. The staff were really lovely and very helpful even booking our ferry tickets at no extra charge. I am pretty sure you are able to book other tours ect.. if you needed. In a nutshell, it was a pleasant, clean, convenient and cheap place fir a stopover or short stay.

It was a very clean, large room although I could hear our neighbors through the bathroom vents (luckily, my parents were on one side, my daughters on the other). It was cute that they provided a hotpot and milo so we could sample that and also eat some mama cup o noodles. Breakfast wasn’t appealing to my kids’ American appetites - there wasn’t even any fruit. But it was reasonably priced and we only stayed there b/c the Novotel lost power (and I’m not sure the Novotel would’ve been much better!) No soap provided in the bathroom btw!

Best value hotel in Chumphon, for 1200 baht we got the best shower in over 30 days in Thailand. A clean and tidy room and a breakfast that in New Zealand would cost more than the 1 night stay!! . Friendly staff and it’s all right in the middle on Chumphon city so it’s close to night markets and amazing street food. Nice pool area with lots of shade. Perfect for a brief stopover for 1 or 2 nights.We have stayed in multiple hotels in Chumphon over the years and this is the best so far

I stay here only for 1 night room quite good, large, and comfort. Key card socket very hadr to turn on the electric power, TV was not on as mention channel, light is qiute dark, no balcony at all. Breakfast was not appreciate on the check in date the lady at front desk told me breakfast is at the second floor, next morning they tole me please go to another restaurant and food all were cold, The lady at front desk staff on the check out date was not very attentive. Not eihter say hellow and farewell, while checking out ask me to wait more than 30 minutes to check the room and payment event I told them that the room charge was done by the organizer.

Only stayed one night waiting to go to Ko Tao. There were only two pillows provided on a queen bed so I asked for a third pillow and was met with “we don’t have any more pillows”. Well for a good size hotel I didn’t buy that for a minute. They opened a room next to the front desk to show me they didn’t have any pillows, I guess they thought I was am *****. I knew the hotel was far from full so I suggested they could use one from an unused room. Well at the end of the day they found one for me to use. The pool was nice and relaxing. We had dinner in the lounge that was surprisingly good. I can’t say the same for the breakfast. Cold eggs and no bacon. It’s not horrible but just not as good as I have been getting the last few weeks. Also no electrical outlets on either side of the bed. Strange I would say.

We arrived around 10am requesting an early check-in, and the receptionist graciously found us a room. We opted for the deluxe king which turned out to be a corner room, giving us an extra window, which was nice. The downside was that the TV, normally placed where the window was, is now displaced into the corner of the room and smaller than the others. Only Thai speaking channels. The square balcony is nice, with a solid timber table and chair. The room is quite bright, but the bathroom is dark, even with the light on. The king bed is in one piece and comfortable but only one pillow each. The lift is small and very slow (we were on the 5th floor). Breakfast is on the top floor and is pretty ordinary, cutlery is the cheapest I’ve seen anywhere, which I always think, is often an indicator of the quality of the food. The location is good, in the centre of town but set back from the busy street. There is a 7/11 across the road and a Big C a few doors down. The main shopping mall of the town is 5 minutes walk and has a cinema complex, Starbucks and MC restaurant. This mid-range hotel is perfectly adequate for one nights stay but it’s definitely not stand out. I’m giving it four stars.

Pros Big and new room Good bed and pillow Good shower Location is somewhat near downtown but you will need a car to go around Cons Room isnt sound proof , you hear everything except speaking that neighbor rooms do walk,shower,move the chair,close the doors etc at left , right , upper room Room has some leaks,its rainy season and 20 to 30 moths flew into my room after midnight as i left light on in bathroom.I called frontdesk to deal with it but there was no action from them but said i should turn off the light.I had to try find all leaks in the room and sealed it and clean it as it died in bathroom I repeat 20 to 30 moths was fying around in the room I slept late because i had to deal with those flying moth and i woke up too early after only 4 hours because sounds i heard from all neighbours room If you afraid of bugs and a light sleeper do not come here

the room is super nice compare to price range, you have everything you need in the room with nice decoration, you ll get to central 10 min on foot or get a free bicycle for 3-4 min, i will definitely stay there if I'm back to chumpon next time

No doubt, that unconventional things add more bright colors to our life, the same as visiting of uncommon places. With all that said, I can call De Sea Almond Hotel in Chumphon as one of the most unusual hotels we have ever settled in. It’s not just a hotel with a number of rooms, which, more or less, looks the same, no, each room in this hotel is one-of-a-kind one. We were lucky enough to spend one night in the room number three on the first floor, a two-story fort-like room with a big bathtub and spacious balcony with a sea-view, and it we did really enjoy the opportunity to warm ourselves in a hot bath with bubble bath (kindly provided by the hotel) first, and then cool ourselves with one famous cold drink, sitting on the balcony. Just one little advice: start taking hot water into the bath in advance as the flow of the water was water pressure was quite weak. For example, it took us about one hour to fill the bath. Yes, the hotel isn’t brand-new one, at all, and it definitely needs renovation here and there. However, we would be happy to visit De Sea Almond, once again, mostly, because of the vibe of this place.
