Reviews for Benyada Lodge - Surin beach
Review 1:A bit overpriced, would be better with breakfast included. Bathroom very dark. Difficult to see shower floor.
Review 2:Close location (a minute walk)to Surin beach. Very friendly staff. Comfortable bed.
Review 3:There's some loud night club near by on another street, but the noise wasn't too bad.
Review 4:The villa was nice and the yard and pool made it very easy to stay with a 1,5 year old. Great location: 7eleven right next door and the beach only 100 m away.
Review 5:No elevator. Shower jet not powerful enough. shower pistol dead.
Review 6:Great Internet I mean 1mb/s speed . So RARE. Great location 2 minutes walk of surin beach.great food around and a 2424 h family mart 2 meters away from the hotel We paid 24 euros for a night in a stars room. Free towels for the beach
Review 7:Property is still comfortable but needs updating in public areas. Roof top area is under-utilised and in poor repair
Review 8:Staff were great, very friendly and accommodating
Review 9:staff not speaking much English. only the person at the reception talks an 'ok' English.
Review 10:hotel is looking nice, the swimming pool is very appreciated after a walk in the city.
Review 11:The first room we were showed had a really bad drain smell. There are major building works going on in front and behind he hotel, which mean if you want to lie in/nap in the afternoon you really can't. If they were finished I would stay again at the hotel, it's a good place - tho I wouldn't return to Surin Beach/Phuket, it's beautiful but tacky and touristy - depends on what you want from Thailand, I don't want a beach packed with umbrellas, sarong vendors and a strip of tailor shops and bars blasting loud music onto the beach.
Review 12:Lovely room - we were upgraded from the basic room we booked. The room was really nice, clean, small but unusable balcony. Clearly some thought has been put into making the rooms feel nice. Located v close to beach so easy to walk down - 100m.
Review 13:Shower door couldn't close Bathroom drain (smelly & blocked) No elevator
Review 14:Location Comfort Prompt & attentive service Access to beach, bars, restaurants, taxis, local mart Exclusive area (next to Twin Palm) Cafe - Great food & coffee Lovely breakfast
Review 15:Road isn't the most beautiful, but you are a stone's throw from the beach. Attractive bathroom, but so dark, I couldn't quite see what I was doing!
Review 16:Chic and spacious rooms. Friendly staff - always keen to help. Stylish bathroom.
Review 17:During our stay there were roadworks leading upto and in front of the hotel entrance making it dusty, noisy and a little dangerous (traffic) during the day. The restaurant wasn't operational and the hotel had the feel of coming out of winterisation.
Review 18:Large, clean and comfortable room. Quiet at night. Easy walk to the beach. Choose this hotel if you're looking for something affordable and clean without the frills.
Review 19:There is a lot of roadworks/construction going on around the property. If you pay extra for a partial sea-view room , you will overlook that. Balcony too small to use.The advertised rooftop bar and pool are non-existant. Breakfast doesnt start until 8am.
Review 20:Good bed, rooms quite nice, close to beach, excellent massage next door. Free wi-fi.
Review 21:Excellent staff, close to beach and restaurants, shops, etc.
Review 22:Oldest TV I've seen in a hotel room for some time.
Review 23:Good value.
Review 24:This is not my first time in this place, nice people and good place
Review 25:Construction site at rear
Review 26:location
Review 27:cant fault anything
Review 28:location, extremely friendly helpful staff, value for money, rooms were clean and roomy with gd air cond.
Review 29:Only 5 minutes to beach and very affordable.
Review 30:Construction and roadworks outside hotel. Poor lighting in bathroom Breakfast
Review 31:Great value, clean, good location and helpful staff.
Review 32:Exactly what a budget-conscious traveller wants: Location Clean Friendly
Review 33:On checkout they converted the credit card payment to GBP which I was not happy about. They said they couldn't refund the credit card so I could pay cash. Working in the Travel Industry for over 20 years I knew this was incorrect, after lots of threats they credited my card in GBP and recharged the amount in Thai Baht. This incident spoilt the whole experience at this property and I would not stay there again on principle.
Review 34:My second visit in two months and very happy again! Very helpful staff and brilliant location - two minutes away from the beach, restaurants and massage salons.
Review 35:The choice of breakfast is so poor. Only sunny side up, omelette or scrambled eggs could be ordered with ham, bacon or sausage. After a couple of mornings all the varieties was tried out, got bored. Some more fruits on the table, almost nothing more. The windows were very dusty, the roof bar was ruined and never cleaned. They had an offer, cocktails for a reduced price, but it was not mentioned that they didn't include the VAT in the price. With the VAT the price of the cocktail is not that fascinating any more.
Review 36:The hotel is situated in a calm (not that calm) street, nearby the beach. Good place to start the sightseeing from. The staff are really kind, nice and polite. Good price / value ratio. Room is well equipped, and the size was good for two pers.
Review 37:The shower wasn't hot - just warmish.
Review 38:Very helpful staff. Only a couple of minutes away on foot from the beach and many restaurants. Very comfortable bed. Attractive design in the bedrooms.
Review 39:It's not a luxury property and doesn't have a lot of amenities or views, as long as you know that, it's fine.
Review 40:It was perfectly fine for the price and they put some effort into trying to make the rooms nice.
Review 41:This place is way too overpriced for what it is. It should only have 1 or 2 stars max! The rooms are old, dated, the bathrooms are terrible with pealing paint and mould. The water pressure is terrible - its like a soft dribble. This place should only be $30 - $50 a night max -- it is marginally 1 step above a hostel.
Review 42:Location is a 200m walk to Surin Beach
Review 43:You have to walk a bit to find "affodable" food i the area, as dishes are double price at the hotels along the beach. Also transportation are bad in Phuket, the meter-taxi's are driven away by "illegal" operators called taxi-service, wich charge way to much just cause there the "only" option. Better rent a motorbike.
Review 44:Its suited a few 100 meters from the beach! Staff is friendly and helpful, speaking (very) good english.
Review 45:Renovation works at the roof level woke us up one morning. They are preparing for the season. That's why prices were cheaper. Fair.
Review 46:close to one of the best beaches in Phuket Island.
Review 47:Power cut, broken shower, towels a bit worn out and perhaps to improve presentation of hotel the tops of the awnings and roofs could be cleaned of rubbish. Doesn't look good when you look out the windows.
Review 48:Location, very comfortable beds, very nice staff.
Review 49:No Comment
Review 50:I liked the staff and they were very helpful, overall the Hotel was clean and very close to the beach. Easy access to restaurants and shops.
Review 51:me and a friend booked a room at the benyada lodge for one week in september 2013. great location, direct at the beach. close to restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacy etc. awesome and friendly staff! absolutely clean rooms and facilities. a great stay with excellent value!
Review 52:The price for breakfast is even more then it cost in Europe should cost around 100 bath for an American breakfast.
Review 53:Nice rooms, good value for the price 1000 bath a night but this is low season so I would not stay there high season when prices go crazy.
Review 54:Breakfast could have been a bit better but the friendliness of the staff kept us there every morning regardless of the deficiencies in the breakfast.
Review 55:The staff were attentive and always smiling - rooms were kept spotless. Nothing seemed to be a bother and check-in/check-out was very efficient and trouble free. Location is perfect - 3 minute walk to the beach. Definitely recommend this hotel.
Review 56:Although the rooms were clean the table top was dusty and I believe house -keeping can do a more complete job of ensuring all surfaces are wiped down. Breakfast selection was limited although the pancakes on offer were tasty.
Review 57:Quiet location but within easy reach of the beach front. Room size is great with a balcony to dry your clothes if required.
Review 58:Rooftop in disrepair. Would be nice to have concierge type service wherestaff could help you book things. You can feel the springs in theirsuper hard bed
Review 59:Good value. Clean. Good location (if you want to be in surin)
Review 60:I have stayed in a lot of hotels in Asia and expect hard beds but these are like mortuary slabs! The first night I had to check there was a mattress and not a sheet on the bed frame it was so hard. After 3 nights we were sore. I slept on top of the spare duvet from the cupboard to try to make it less hard. Also we were there out of season and it was very quiet. The roof bar and pool were shut and one night we were definitely the only people in the whole hotel. As the sea is so rough in June and July - great for surfing but not swimming - the pool was more vital than in season when the sea is calm and you can swim in it. Shame Also the battery in the safe died meaning we couldn't use it. Food was also fairly expensive - much cheaper and busier to eat at the beach restaurants. Recommend the Sea Breeze - excellent Thai food (and Burgers for the Expats it seemed)
Review 61:Good hotel in the bay, 2 mins walk to the beach, next to Surin Bay Hotel - great Banana Pancakes for breakfast there, staff helpful, taxi's across the road
Review 62:Pool and rooftop bar not open Very quiet lacked atmosphere Mini bar andrestaurant expensive With no pool not worth the money
Review 63:The rooms are lovely large and clean and well designed In a quietlocation near the beach with boutique shops around
Review 64:The hotel is an old building and it shows in the rooms, fittings,furnishing, bathroom. The pool was also not in working order
Review 65:Cheap hotel 2 minutes walk from the beach and an ok restuarant
Review 66:The breakfast was not as good as I expected considering the price of theroom (juice was not fresh, limited choice of other items). Thewalls/doors are quite thin so you can hear noise in the corridor. But Iwas on holiday so no problem really.The roof terrace is a wasted oppoprtunity for the hotel since it is lovely but the wading pool was not full and the hotel was reluctant to serve us drinks to have there in the evening.
Review 67:Good location, I was there for a wedding of friends, so most of theguests were staying in the hotels on Surin Beach.
Review 68:Rooftop lounge was not open. Not a great location if you want a bit of nightlife as there is nothing to do in Surin.
Review 69:Excellent location, less than 5 minutes walk to a great beach. We booked for 3 nights and stayed for 5.
Review 70:Hotel looked quite unassuming when we arrived, wondered where we hadcome to. Were allocated a nice room on second floor overlooking theroad. Unfortunately too far away to see the beach. All in all it wasreasonable. Only criticisms , the American breakfast - not very goodquality of food, and the stairs - No Lift!!!
Review 71:Pool was non-operational
Review 72:Breakfast is basic but great, close to the beach which is excellent.Friendly staff who will help you with whatever you need I thought thisplace was high value for money given the area it is in, highly recommend
Review 73:Hard beds, like in all Thai hotels I have stayed at. But the extra bedfor my daughter was comfortable. Roof pool and bar was closed. On theother hand only 5 minutes to the beach where there are plenty ofrestuarants.I was suprised that Surin Beach was such a crowded place (many russians it seems) but that is not something I can blame the hotel for, of course :-)
Review 74:Nice surprise - we were upgraded to a suite. (That is how it exceeded myexpectations). Clean room. Wifi worked fine. Computers with Internetaccess in lobby, free of charge. Walking distance to beach. Taxi stationacross the street.
Review 75:Water pressure was rubbish and showering almost impossible!!! We bookeda studio room but there was no safety deposit box and no balcony, asdescribed by website. After complaining we were upgraded to a suitewhich was more like we were expecting.
Review 76:Good location to beach, comfortable bed
Review 77:No elevator and I was staying on the 4th floor. Hotel was very hot, only Aircon in rooms.
Review 78:Room were great and comfortable beds
Review 79:Good standard accommodation and good value for money. Very good location. Pleasant staff
Review 80:Water smelly during first day of stay. Only one key provided per room.
Review 81:Value for money.
Review 82:The advertised pool is dried up and the pool bar is non existent. Quitea let down I must say
