Reviews for Phra Nang Inn
Review 1:Obviously they only greeting western customer
Review 2:Everything, location is just perfect. Beach front. Staff friendly but due to my last minute cancellation of airport transfer, their staff seem like unhappy. However overall is good for the hotel
Review 3:Due to small boats arriving & departing from Ao nang Pier across the road from the hotel, the noise through out the day can be truly disturbing! Its like a big truck taking off every 5 minutes! Evening after sunset is peaceful. Morning this noise will surely wake you up from your sleep. Mine was beach front room & more closer you are to the beach, more boat noise will bother you. Price for that room was too much. AC cooling not effective enough.
Review 4:We arrived early at 11 am & staff was courteous enough to give the room immediately. Breakfast is good. Staff is welcoming. Great Location. Everything close by.
Review 5:Regular power cuts and a little noisey at night which is as expected due to location. Thai food good but would not recommend the western food.
Review 6:Best location in aonang right near longboats for island hopping. Nice quiet pool in the day and good breakfast spread. Decent bar with live music. Spatious family room in authentic style hotel.
Review 7:Despite a "remember me" tab had to sign into wifi every single time. Soap for the shower wasn't refilled and when asked for soap for the bath was told "you only get one lot" no beach towels only towels for the pool.
Review 8:So close to the beach, shops and restaurants.
Review 9:The only inconvenience is that there is no closet or drawer space in the room to put your stuff.
Review 10:We had a room on the top floor overlooking the sea so loved it! The breakfast was great with all the fresh juices and a view of the sea. Very convenient location, close to everything, beach, shops, restaurants and the boat ticket office were all right there.
Review 11:You ca feel that you are in resort! Completely different than in other place in Thailand.
Review 12:Hotel has the best localisation in Ao Nang. Breakfest are OK and vicinity quite nice.
Review 13:One of our rooms smelled of mold and damp. Hotel charged us for water and drinks we never had from the fridge! Be sure to check what waterbottle is free and check the small forms they put on the fridge of what they fill up the fridge with, so you don't have to pay for wrong items...
Review 14:Nice place, nice location and a Very good breakfast and a nice pool.
Review 15:Unfortunately we had a few problems with the room.We had a pool access room which had a very bad sewer odour in the bathroom.We reported it a number of times but there was no improvement so we finished up buying our own toilet harpic to address the problem ,with limited success. We believe it was a general problem with the ground floor plumbing rather than the room.We also had a very old box TV.which had 32 channels ...all in Thai. The only Thai people at the Hotel were the staff!! We asked for some English channels when we found out some other guests had 65 channels including BBC and CNN. They worked on our TV with no success and as a result they came back within 10mins with a new flat screen TV still in its box,we were astounded.They must have their own supply.This was day 4 of our 7 night stay. We then asked that while they were at it if we could have hot water for our shower rather than lukewarm!! So on day 4 we scored a new TV and hot water .Wow!! So we recommend room 116 ...its had a make over. All that being said ,the staff could not have been nicer. I think the fact we were there for a longer period enabled us time to work through the language issues which was evident.
Review 16:Location was excellent,right opposite the beach,long tail boats taking you to various other beaches and the main shopping centre with heaps of restaurants and tourist shops etc.Friendly staff adequately appointed room and nice pool area.Also good variety at the buffet breakfast.
Review 17:May need updated a little, and only one English tv channel, which was bbc world news,
Review 18:The location of hotel excellent, the staff very friendly and the beach bar was great to relax with a drink and listen to the music.
Review 19:Seaview? No seaview, unless you bench over on the balcony.. Wifi? No wifi, unless you go to the lobby. When I complained staff was very unfriendly. Builing is old, swimming pool ridiculous, service poor, way overpriced. Stayed one night because they forced me to pay. Found much better room for half the price at 100m from there... Princeville resort
Review 20:Location is OK but that's the only positive aspect
Review 21:No real "swimming"pool,quite small.a little bit old fashioned,not so modern. Beds wasn't soft att all.
Review 22:Close To beach (only a few metres), Shops and restaurants.Excelent breakfast.nice pool.
Review 23:Resort is not at the sea even though it states it is. Room had waves of bad sewage smell coming after showering. Wifi was super slow.
Review 24:Ok value for money
Review 25:the property, the way it was described as if it was right on the beach but It is not on the beach.. Ao nang's beach is really not great.
Review 26:The hotel was very comfortable and friendly staff
Review 27:The room had a damp smell, the hotel as a whole was in bad shape, the tiny balcony was about a foot wide, I suffer from asthma so couldn't stay. Manager wouldn't give me a refund and was unhelpful/rude, making me write out a statement for reasons why I wanted to leave whilst she and her staff stood glaring at me, then arguing the fact that room smelled.I tried 2 rooms, both no good.
Review 28:I didn't stay. The room was smelly and definitely not as shown in the pictures so I moved next door to aonang villa resort for just a little extra
Review 29:Have not found
Review 30:Hotel next to the ocean, next to the beach and then exit to the street where the boils whole life. There's a number, and tourist police office and Ticket to the islands, all close by. The hotel staff is very welcoming, smiling, ready to help in everything, there is also a spa and salon and a tour desk. there is a cool pool, you can splash around in it for hours and even seen the ocean, even from the bar drinks are served, cool! Generally a great place
Review 31:Wi-Fi was a little slow and not stable in the room.
Review 32:The staff are very nice and friendly. They were enthusiastically willing to help you as much as they can. The location is great! Long-tail boats are right in front of the hotel. Breakfast and other food at the restaurant were awesome. We had great time there.
Review 33:When the staff moved my car I was on the balcony of the room. This enabled me to watch the man going through the glove compartment and central storage in my car. Nothing was taken but that is not the point.
Review 34:Room & view
Review 35:Bad breakfast, no cheese and no bacon. Expensive beachbar, but nice entertainment. Wierd room layout, separate shower & wc and a tub in the middle of to room? Nasty showercurtain. No good sunspots by the pool area, and few places to lay down. Pool is only 1.40 m deep.
Review 36:Location to ao nang beach.
Review 37:it seemed shabby and run down. MOLDY and loud at night. their house band on one side and a metal band across the street. It seemed like it was more of a resort in it's hey day but is now worn out. overpriced but I think everything in this area is.
Review 38:good location for boat day trips to other islands. Staff was great. Large air conditioned room.
Review 39:there were some cockroaches and mosquito in our room, also they didn't clean the room appropriately.
Review 40:the bathtub in the room is nice, location is convenient.
Review 41:noisy till mid-night when your room close to the side of beach.
Review 42:close the aonang beach, good location for everything you want to do when you stay at aonang.
Review 43:Breakfast spread was not a lot, and always the same for all 3 days.
Review 44:The Beach Bar - nice old songs played live. Honeymoon suite w sea view was fantastic. Location was excellent, smack in the centre of Aonang.
Review 45:Expensive (compared to Bangkok), average food, sold us transfer to next destination which dropped us off miles before advertised stop, gave out free 'drinking water' which appeared to be tap water
Review 46:15 metres from beach, cool room, friendly staff, provided umbrellas (necessary in rainy season!)
Review 47:The variety for breakfast is limited, The breakfast buffet are almost the same everyday. Didnt had stable wifi connectivity during the stay.
Review 48:Location was awesome Spa wing rooms were cosy.
Review 49:Really outdated, broken old sunbeds, poor decor, unattentive staff, awful view from our room (water butt and power lines/pylon), and rubbish wi-fi. Not worth the money at all. Not recommended.
Review 50:Location was ok, near the beach.......but that is about all.
Review 51:we changed rooms on arrival as our "upgrade" was poor. We had no TV or wifi for Half our stay. Staff blamed bad weather, but surrounding properties had no problems.we found out when we left that reception had forgotten to give us complimentary vouchers. Would not return.
Review 52:great location
Review 53:Wifi was not available in my room. Had to go outside my room in order to get the wifi connection. Seaview room has big trees blocking the view. Only part of the sea can be seen. Pool always have fallen leaves and sand (maybe from the beach). Breakfast was ok just less variety. Many flies were seen near the exposed bread. Should have a cover for it.
Review 54:Location is superb. Very close to the beach. Room space is just nice but we were very comfortable. Bath tub is big. Staffs were very welcoming. Thumbs up to their room service. We booked 2 tours and 1 taxi ride to the airport at the hotel. All went smoothly.
Review 55:Booking.com's failure to advise us of on going renovation noise atthe resort which is somewhat disturbing.Bad service at restaurant.
Review 56:Reservation officer's effort to assign a good view room and warmservice by front desk and bell staff.Clean and comfortable room and resort is in a convenient and good location for food, shopping and islands hopping.
Review 57:air conditioning din't work, had to change rooms on the middle of the night, not enough space for luggage, found a bid cockroach too on the wall, had to evacuate the room and they just sprayed all around
Review 58:good location, gay friendly, nice beach, beautiful views from breakfast restaurant
Review 59:Breakfast selection is poor, the hotel is under renovation so it's dirty, noisy and the restaurant is closed. One of the days we could not use our balcony because the workers left the tools on our balcony.
Review 60:Good location but poor breakfast selection. A little noisy because of the live band but bearable.
Review 61:The only issue was the wifi would not always work
Review 62:The location of the resort is brilliant as it is next to the beech and also close to amenities. Our room was also really nice with a great view
Review 63:I can not use the swimming pools because the hotel has renovating their roof during my stay. Workers also walked on the roof and made a loud noises, feels not private.
Review 64:Location is very good.The staffs were very nice.
Review 65:The hotel is un modernised, crazy bed room lay out. Bed in middle of room. Bath in room, lighting poor. Needs new clean blinds. Needs up dating.
Review 66:Staff were nice, help full. Location good for trips. Stayed 3nights. Loved krabie .
Review 67:the hotel's room is ok. but i think it could be better, as the price is not cheap. and one more thing to imporve is the breakfast,hope much more choices.
Review 68:we stayed in this hotel for 5 nights.the finest thing is the hotel location. you can do some shopping,eating.sun-bathing nearby, so easy.
Review 69:Pay extra for beach front, however the beach is not nice with all the boats...so no need to get a beach front hotel. Also, don't take a road side room, because doors are pretty thin and you hear the noise early morning and late night.
Review 70:Liked the staff and the fact that there is a pool.
Review 71:Minor issues to be taken into account: It could be noisy in the rooms along the road (right side from the reception), so if possible ask for the room on the other side Also we enjoyed straying on the second floor more than on the first - it is more quiet and rooms are better equipped
Review 72:Perfect location - close to everything: beach, shops, reastaurants Very nice and friendly staff Quite clean and stylish Great breakfast with do-it-yourself fruit freshes
Review 73:Lots of little things were missing from the room which is surprising considering the price. Eg: No set-up to dry clothes. No hair dryer. The kitchenette only has a sink, while other places we've stayed at, had pans, plates, bowls and cutlery. The staff was nice enough, however, housekeeping didnt do very well. On several occasions, i had to clean my bathroom myself, since it was easier than calling reception or housekeeping to explain. Which brings me to my last point... none of the staff speak very good english, so be prepared to have your calls transferred a few times before someone can understand what you need. Provided you speak in monosyllables.
Review 74:Great location and the pool is always open
Review 75:Noise from outside as it is so central. Shared balcony meant a lack of privacy.
Review 76:Location is great for Ao Nang beach. Right opposite longtail pier for day trips. Food in restaurant was amazing. Restaurant Manager is brilliant. All staff very polite. Room spacious and clean.
Review 77:I paid to stay here for2 nights. Checked in at 3. Went out, came back at 10 then at 11pm a man dressed in black with a bag entered our Room!!!! Walked in just out of the blue. We scrapped ourselves and left immediately! No staff in sight!!!!! Dropped key back and told staff what happened and all they seemed interested in was finding out if we used the mini bar!!!! Do not reccomend this place. Very unsecure!!!!
Review 78:- really great breakfast with espresso, croissant, pain au chocolat; - nice location, away from the noise but still close to the shops and restaurants; - small number of rooms, feels very exclusive.
Review 79:Rooms need some renovations for the price they ask in high season.
Review 80:Location. Great bar with live music every night with a great atmosphere. Average breakfast with the best view.
Review 81:Hotel is starting to get a little pricy for a 3 star hotel. Rooms are getting a little outdated.
Review 82:Staff are helpful and location is across from the beach. Lovely boutique hotel with a great pool.
Review 83:The room was dark, has to change room as the bed was dirty. The pool was small and in the shade, not a great hotel for the price. Lots better out there for less
Review 84:Location was great, that's about it
Review 85:Room's floor has sand and easy get it into bed, wifi is bad, often no signal.
Review 86:Good location for food, shopping and tour; many fruit shops with 50baht a pack of mix fruit or single type of fruit; many restaurant and clothes shops; hotel aside of beach, and with 2 pools as well that give multiple choice, if you don't want to go to sea water or with baby, you could choice the pool, the pool water very clean and cold all time.
Review 87:- Not much parking area
Review 88:- Good location both night life and booking the local tour (Ticket kiosk at corner road could provide the best price for private boat#4 islands only 2,200 TB)
Review 89:Wifi was not very good We forgot two memory cards in the safe deposit box in the room. We called next day and they say there is nothing there. Maybe another guest have them, but be sure do not forget anything in the hotel.
Review 90:Nice rooms, nice swimming pool. Good breakdfast.
Review 91:I wish I could have stayed longer.
Review 92:I really like this place and have stayed here before. Lovely pool. Great setting. On the beach and central to town.
Review 93:Hot water heater broken on arrival. Called right away but didn't get fixed until the next day. Room was next to the noisy beach bar (live music wasn't bad) but, fortunately, we were tired and passed out easily.
Review 94:Great location, right across from beach and very close to shops and food.
Review 95:The hotel's own beach bar at street level is very disturbing. In the next few apartments is not possible to sit outside on the patio in the evening. We asked to change the apartment which made the better but not great. The sound goes out over the pool area ends at 24 when the bar closes
Review 96:The staff is very good The breakfast best in class Location is really good Lovely pool area nice and clean in the rooms
Review 97:Too much money to pay - 27,000 Baht for 5 nights and I was not able to alter booking even though much notification was given and hotel was fully booked.
Review 98:Great location to beach and bars.
Review 99:No Wifi in room, only at the lobby & restaurant only. Hotel should boast up the WIFi network to include the rooms. Rooms could be cleaned better also.
Review 100:Restaurant serving breakfast was overlooking the beach.
Review 101:Breakfast can be more diverse. We stayed 5 days and everyday the same breakfast. During the night it could be a bit noisy due to bars nearby with live music. There was a smell of humidity constantly in the room although we kept terrace door opened.
Review 102:Great location, by the beach and next to the boat pier with daily trips to Raylia beach. Staff was very nice and helpful. No bites from nasty mosquitoes.
Review 103:The wifi is so poor. We can't access to internet in the room at most of the time. The hotel management should seriously look into this matter.
Review 104:My daughter dropped her gold earring in the toilet. The housekeeping staff found it and left it on the soap holder. I would to thank and praise them for their honesty.
Review 105:Needs some updating. Found the bar noise a bit annoying, have a few cocktails and go to bed after 12 midnight and you'll be fine.
Review 106:Staff, Location, pool, king bed, good smorg breakfast, restaurant is in a nice location across from the ocean/boardwalk. Had a air conditioning issue in the middle of the night...talked with the desk clerk and he had a staff tech fix the unit in those hours of the night...very impressed with that level of service...not many countries would do that.
Review 107:More attention to detail; hotel felt a bit dated, leaves not cleaned from pool often enough. Breakfast not enough Western options, ie no bacon.
Review 108:Location was fantastic, staff were very friendly and helpful. The pools were great.
Review 109:Staff is quite lazy and not very friendly, buffet breakfast doesn't have much choice and after a couple of days it gets boring, rooms are quiet but can hear the noise coming from the main street and the boats engines revving up from the pier which is frontside the hotel, smelly odour from the toilet
Review 110:Swimming pool but it's a bit limited in size, hotel is within walking distance to the beach (frontside there's the pier), comfy beds, toiletries (shampoo and shower gel dispensers), lady at the tour planning counter very friendly and kind.
Review 111:If you want to be right in the middle of everything this is your place. Stones throw away from shops, restaurants night life and the hotel restaurant (the best meal we had in Krabi) is by the beach.
Review 112:Can be a bit noisy with bar downstairs but the live music doesn't play late. The key box for running electricity in the room is a bit too loose so sometimes electricity goes out and you have to fiddle with the key to keep the lights and a/c running.
Review 113:Great staff, nice location, charming design, great breakfast.
Review 114:our balcony view was nonexistent, but they actually offered to move us after one night nothing else - it was one of my favorite hotels ever in 15+ years of traveling
Review 115:Staff was phenomenal beautiful grounds and pool comfortable room, nice shower and tub lots of extra room conveniences and romantic touches good breakfast right by beach helpful travel desk comfortable bed
Review 116:wifi was only strong enough on the outside of the room on the deck. Might have been location of our room, closer to the beach.
Review 117:Really nice, good size pool. Comfortable chairs overlooking the pool.
Review 118:The room was rather small and tight. The Wi-Fi at night was really weak too.
Review 119:The design of the hotel was rather quirky and beach-like themed but yet it is considerably clean and quite comfortable. The view of our room, 2416, was great, overlooking the Phang Nga Bay. The hotel is just stone throw off the beach and with the long-tail boat "centre", making it truly a gateway of Ao Nang Beach. Having breakfast by the beachside restaurant id definitely soothing.
Review 120:Musty smell in the rooms sewage smell in the bathroom
Review 121:Location was perfect Dining room food excellent Bar had great drinks and some great musical entertainment Staff responsive to requests Great pool
Review 122:- Very dirty and very old, a three was growing in our balcony. - This hotel not well maintain. - Way too over price and over rated. - The housekeeper doesn't do the job at all. - Breakfast is terrible. - This hotel is from another age.
Review 123:The wifi is so poor during my visit, due to weather condition. And the satellite TV is totally not work...
Review 124:The located in a perfect location. Stuff is friendly.
Review 125:Do not even think about it if you are an internet addict. Wi-fi is a disaster. Hotel needs an overall maintenance, furnitures and building itself looks very old.
Review 126:Location Helpfull staff
Review 127:In need of a bit of TLC to bring it up to date. Breakfast was additional cost - I think 500 Baht each so we just used the cafe opposite which was a lot cheaper!
Review 128:Staff couldn't have been more helpful - our first room had a little decked area outside. My partner managed to put his foot through it and they transferred us to another room straight away. Right in the heart of ao nang!
Review 129:The staff was not friendly...especially the front office at customer service and the cleaner. No greetings from them when I arrived at the hotel...even when I want to go back also they didn't say "Please come Back...or "Have a Nice Journey" The pool was not be clean up. Lots of leaves and looks dirty.
Review 130:The room was so nice, the bed was comfy Nice view Short distance to go to the beach and walking along the Ao Nang Street
Review 131:WiFi terrible, cut out every few minutes.
Review 132:Staff were very friendly and helpful, rooms were nice and clean. Good location, very close to beach and nightlife.
Review 133:the pool area wasn't very clean, the sea view room is quite far from the beach (is the further room, so you can hardly see the sea) the breakfast is not very good, pastry should improve internet from the room is not stable.
Review 134:i liked the location, in front of the beach and the center, the pool of the hotel, the bar with music alive, the room was very confortable and has a nice balcony staff was good and helped me to manage my booking and move the dates because i wasn't able to go when i planed.
Review 135:Having to pay for wi-fi especially as most hotels, restaurants and bars provide wi-fi to patrons.
Review 136:Location close to beach a main shopping, restaurant and bar facilities. Restaurant overlooking the beach. Great value for money. Staff spoke good English and very helpful. Exceeded my expectations.
Review 137:Unstable wifi but I guess I can live with that
Review 138:Great location by the beach. Lots of eateries, massage, tour agents and everything whose u need for the trip
Review 139:Some of the tiles by sides of pool between the 2 wings are chipped off. They should be replaced right away before someone gets hurt.
Review 140:Great location. Close proximity to shops, restaurants & beach.
Review 141:They took my final debit from my Visa card without asking me...unacceptable They got my final bill wrong...I wanted to pay more but they messed it ALL up The checkout was a disaster ...loved the hotel they need to get there act together
Review 142:Great location Excellent singer in the bar at night Great value for money Totally acceptable hotel Nice pool Good food Restaurant good little bit overpriced
Review 143:Great beach!Accommodation good, everything you needed. Facilities at the hotel great!! Doors open up onto pool if you choose pool side view which i recommend. There was a live band in the pub which was lovely to listen to.
Review 144:Mozzies in room and dinner areas. No WiFi in rooms ,very poor for a hotel of this size.
Review 145:room size is excellent. Staff friendly and helpfull Great location ,not to busy and away from party area.
