Wifi awful, it says something when even the shacks on the beach had better. Pool area and pool bar looked derelict, nobody ever stayed around it long enough. We are not normally beach people we prefer a good pool which was the main reason i chose the Hotel for the stunning pool, It was so depressing we ended up on the beach every day. The pool Waterfall !!! as in the Hotel photos never worked, when i asked about it they said not enough people, so we weren’t important enough to turn it on !!! no atmosphere whatsoever we felt like we didn’t belong. Breakfast not worth paying extra for , Staff need better training in food hygiene, food left uncovered to flies and not by the guests, by the staff. Bathroom grotty, shower curtain black mould , never ever had hot water in the sink, Legionella risk. Shower plug hole Disgusting black slime and hair very bad drain smell coming up from it. I tried to get hold of Expedia to change Hotel but to no avail. Spent all our time out of the Hotel because it was so depressing. Was more of a Motel, certainly Not a Resort. All in all a complete waste of hard earned money, a very disappointing stay, i could of cried. I might add that my Family and i are well accustomed to Thailand and have travelled extensively around South East Asia and know what to expect. But This Hotel lacks in care and attention.

Beautiful pool close to downtown!
Pool was beautiful with poolside massage available. Rooms were beautiful, a little buggy at times. Breakfast is simple and a little expensive if you eat at the hotel. No elevator. Our room was at the top of several fights of stairs but cozy and clean! Walking distance to night market, waterfront and a big mall.

Satisfactory stay. The room allotted was ill designed. The room door opened n banged into the WC. The toilet was barely wide enough to move around. Clean and located centrally

Nova Samui April 2018
There are two plus points for this hotel! Firstly the pool is fantastic and secondly the staff are so very friendly and helpful. The superior room which I stayed in was nice and had everything I needed. Although the furniture is a little dated. The air conditioning could use an upgrade to make the room a little cooler, but that is my personal choice. Also the breakfast is very basic with only three hot items available on most days, which was was not to my personal taste. I did complain about the cleanliness of the bathroom and that was promptly attended to, although it was a basic clean but acceptable. The hotel is located about a 5 minuet walk from the main shopping mall and 10 minuets from the beach. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely return again.

Lovely grounds but has some issues
Nova Samui is located inland, maybe 10 to 15 mins walk from the beach if you go through the shopping centre which is only a few minutes away. The rooms are nice and large but have noisy floor boards so if you are in a downstairs room, this might be a problem. The Welcome Inn with Dave and Porn's local knowledge is only 1 minute away and well worth stopping off at. The internet is a little flaky and you have to login every day on every device with a new code. The pool is nice however there is very little shade, no parasols at all so everyone is clumped around on an unused massage platform trying not to burn. The staff are friendly and breakfast is about average. As it is built into a hillside, there are many steps, 2 flights to reception and another to the pool and then more to the rooms. All in though, price, location, amenities etc it's value for money.

3rd stay here for me - good value
The hotel is set on a hillside - so if you have any mobility problems request a room closer to the pool / reception - I stayed in room 452 junior suite a bit higher up the hill than last time but I managed the steps Staff are great and friendly and absolutely no issues staying here - as usual I hired a motor bike from the travel agents across the road at a very reasonably price 10 /15 minute walk to bars and restaurants

Not a good hotel
I suggest that anybody that is not a mountaineer gives this resort a wide berth ! Stairs and then more stairs and then more stairs ! Apparently this place has recently been taken over ? Whoever owns it they need to be spending some time on giving rooms etc a good makeover. The only good thing that can be said about this place is that it has a great pool ! Everything needs upgrading ! I won't be staying here again, there are better places to stay nearby.

Quiet, clean and ideal
A nice resort that is off the track a bit but it's only 5-10mins walk away from Chewang bars etc. ideal spot for nearby food and services, which are cheaper than the main areas. Rooms are big enough and cleaned everday. Pool area is really good but sun is obscured by 430pm if that matters to you. Nice to get clean towels everyday for the pool. Not that impressed when I ate here but breakfast at Pens for 150bht is a good deal, and good here plus the wee shop across the road, next to 7/11 is great for a cheap but tasty lunch or dinner. Stayed here longer than expected - quiet and ideal.
