Reviews for U Residence Hotel

Review 1:Awful ridiculous narrow spiral stairs up to our room at top floor!! not for over 50 or not perfect legs or with luggage! ill fitted duvet cover has ink stains & holes! room cluttered with furnitures incl a 4 poster bed but no seats or surfaces or bedside table, no tea or coffee making facilities; breakfast was only eggs,1 sausage & thin white toast, bland & tasteless. Have to leave shoes downstairs as well. Poor value at 2,100 ThB - should be half the price for that area & that's being generous.

Review 2:location central on bus route

Review 3:The reception staff were very brusque and not very welcoming at all - we had to pay a $50 key deposit, which is ridiculous, and they didn't seem pleased at all to see us! As other reviewers have mentioned, there is no lift in the property and the only staircase is a very narrow spiral staircase - this is all part of the period charm of the hotel, but the staircase is very narrow and you need to be careful on the way down as it would be very easy to trip. Not a hotel for the elderly or anyone with a bad knee or fear of heights!

Review 4:Excellent location, very central for Night Market and the river and only a few minutes' walk away from a good massage parlour and fun bars. Close to the airport and the hotel has their own private car and driver, who were able to take us to Krabi airport for a 7am flight. Beautiful old building with plenty of character and charm. We has asked for a quiet room when booking and were given a room on the top floor, as requested. We left too early for breakfast, but the staff kidndly made us fruit boxes to take to the airport.

Review 5:Wonderful place. Staff was great. They were friendly and helpful. There were some language barriers, however it was not a big deal. The beds are firm but no more firm than any other guest house we stayed in. The locations is perfect close to night market and ferry terminal. I would highly recommend Uresidence and would stay again!

Review 6:Breakfast wasn't the best but even then still good value for money overall for this hotel.

Review 7:Location in town, very close to the pier. Beautiful rooms and decor, etc. Staff were helpful and friendly. Wonderful and very charming place.

Review 8:Super hard bed. Chaotic organisation for the Ferry pick up.

Review 9:Cheap and cheerful hotel perfect for a stopover. Good location to have a quick tour of Krabi.

Review 10:The staff was very helpful and kind. The place is very close to many eating places and good massage places. If you do not care too much about the view this is value for money.

Review 11:This hotel really is disgusting!! Terrible unfriendly staff. No elevator!! My wife had to jump off the stairs 2 floors!! When we asked for the manager we could not talk with him. When we arrived later the staff was drinking alcohol with guests!! 7% extra creditcard payment costs is really ridiculous!!

Review 12:Nothing. Really nothing. Although....yes... there was one thing: leaving this hotel!!

Review 13:Right in the centre of Krabi town close to restaurants, harbour and night market. Really nicely done in Thai style. Very comfortable beds and rooms. Ornate spiral staircase with no lift may not suit some guests although they do carry your luggage up for you.

Review 14:issue with shower but reception immediately came to solve

Review 15:the last day the reception kept kindly our luggage after check out hour to let us enjoy our last day freely. Receptionnist also quite available and friendly

Review 16:The Amex cards were not accepted because their machine was not working, they asked for cash.

Review 17:Close to night market for food and shopping. Good option to relax when coming back from islands on boat.

Review 18:The winding narrow staircase as the only way to go upstairs from front lobby, difficult to navigate if carrying heavy bags. Thin walls allow noise to be heard from other rooms. Also lack of parking is a factor for us, since we drove in from Malaysia

Review 19:The beautiful decor of the room, attention to details is amazing! Cleanliness is dutifully and very well maintained. Please take note, guests are required to remove shoes prior to entering the premises. Central location in Krabi town is an added advantage. Staff attentive and eager to please

Review 20:Took a few times before the staff understood that the bath water wasn't flowing out well .. It was finally fixed the day before i was to check out.

Review 21:Love the decor! Room though small was well designed and maximised space to the point that it felt spacious and adequate. The bathrooms are good sized with rainwater shower. Location excellent! Near pier and night markets and convenient stores and banks. The place lives up to what you see in the photos.

Review 22:Beautiful design. Helpful stuff- especially again thanks to dear lady- probably owner ,) for our "city ride". Great location in Krabi.

Review 23:It's pretty hard to find something negative... The only thing I can think of is that a Thai breakfast option would be nice.

Review 24:We loved the hotel... There are no other ones quite like it nearby. It's pretty special. The staff make it even more amazing by being so welcoming, friendly and fun.

Review 25:The hotel madam sent us to the airport for 500B, while consider it's already 0am and no taxi, it's somehow reasonable to charge, but the cost is a little bit high for a 20mins drive, 300-350B will be more ok.

Review 26:staff are willing to provide service, especially our plane was schedule at 2am, while the original taxi driver didn't show up, and the hotel madam drived us to the airport. The decoration is attractive for it's exotic style.

Review 27:Hotel sencillo, con una decoración muy linda: la cama, los muebles, los picaportes! El personal es muy atento y te ayuda. Muy buen precio y muy rico el desayuno. Ideal para pasar la noche previa y / o posterior a las islas.

Review 28:The whole hotel was lovely, the staff were really friendly and helped book us some trips, including giving us a lift to and from tiger cave, the room was beautiful and we had a lovely view over looking the river. Excellent all round!

Review 29:Nice - but rather small - room with cute bathroom. We liked the comfy beds. Staff was very welcoming and helpful. (Contintental) breakfast included. Across the street you can find a laundry (THB 40.00 per kg) if needed. The (outstanding) night-foodmarket is only 1 or 2 minutes away...perfect location in Krabi!

Review 30:nothing

Review 31:Beautiful rooms, comfortable bed, delicious coffee. The staff were extremely helpful and kind, I lost my bag and they went out of there way to help me get it back. Great location and they can help you book your onward stay. Well worth a stay before you move on to the islands

Review 32:Nothing

Review 33:This was my last stay on my travels in south east Asia. I had stayed in Krabi Town the previous week at the Pak Up Hostel and Your Hostel and this was by far the nicest accommodation through my whole journey. The staff were excellent and the hotel was amazing. I would highly recommend a stay here

Review 34:4 people with problems @ night, it could possibly be a bit to loud at the front, but just ask for a room with backyardview

Review 35:atmosphere, design and comfort, kind staff, airport transfer in the middle of the night was no problem, we really liked it much

Review 36:We reserved and paid cash on arrival for a deluxe room with front view but staff tried to put us in a lower grade room insisting deluxe rooms were all occupied. However room became available when we asked for a refund! The spiral staircase is very difficult to use and this is the only way to get to rooms. Rooms are not very spacious.

Review 37:First impressions of the hotel really good. Decor wonderful, spotlessly clean.

Review 38:the hotel has a great decoracion.. the location is great you have everything you want in a few minutes walking....the hotel room was very clean the wifi was excellent

Review 39:Not a thing, had a 2nd floor room with view, but would have got a better view being on third, bit of a stretch to think you were going to get the view as per the advert. We upgraded thinking we would get this.

Review 40:Response to our requests for early breakfast and help with tours

Review 41:U Residence's walls are paper thin and the hotel's clientele is extraordinarily loud. Guests were shouting between rooms into the early morning, with the hotel's seemingly indifferent staff doing nothing (it was easy to hear first-floor conversations on the third, so I imagine the reverse is true). The staff struck me as lackadaisical and perhaps even unfriendly, in such stark contrast to the warmth I've grown accustomed to everywhere else I've stayed in Thailand. When I told the owner about my negative experience, she simply nodded.

Review 42:Good coffee.

Review 43:the drainage in the shower worked very slowly no mosquito net. !!!!!!

Review 44:brilliant design and restoration work . helpful staff . the drainage in the shower worked very slowly

Review 45:It seems the owner of this hotel only put money and effort on the decoration. Staff lacks of skills and not willing to help, nobody knows how to speak english (it is dificult to find thai people who can speak english, but this hotel staff is the worst we found in Thailand). Bed is too hard.We sleap one Night and then moved to River View hotel that is cheaper and 2 blocks from Ur residence. I prefered River View, the staff is great there.

Review 46:The best thing of this hotel is the decoration.wi fi works great.Location is great inside Krabi town.

Review 47:The staff were friendly on and off. It seemed the moods varied quite a bit, but it could have just been an off day. When trying to check out, the staff was still sleeping (it was 6am) and never heard our taxi driver ringing the bell to open the door and let him in - we were lucky he didn't leave. The room smelled awful when we first checked in (like stale cat urine), but after turning the air on full blast and leaving the balcony door open for some time it was fine.

Review 48:The location of the hotel is perfect. Great area to walk around. The hotel itself is decorated great - very charming decor. Huge balcony and everything we needed in the room. Overall a good stay.

Review 49:Rooms on the roadside appear to be somewhat noisier. If you do not like to walk stairs, ask for a room on the first floor (rather than on the second or third floor).

Review 50:Our second stay within 10 days (we spent a night in Krabi before visiting Koh Jum and another night upon our return from the island). We had a different room this time, although very nice.

Review 51:We do not consider this to be a disadvantage, but readers may want to know about it: Guests have to put off their shows before going upstairs to the guest rooms. The starecase is rather narrow (but hotel staff will carry your bags).

Review 52:Very nice, small, boutique-style hotel. Located close to the center of Krabi (a 5-minutes walk). Our room was very nice and stylish. The hotel is clean, the staff is friendly. This is a highly recommendable hotel, and it offers very good value for your money. If we return to Krabi (which is very likely) we will not hesitate to book this hotel again.

Review 53:Nothing important really. If I have be picky, then the staff could improve a bit English (it is ok for basic issues, but if you have more complicated request then its tough to communicate). There was no closet in single room, not a big deal tough.

Review 54:Decour, room, location, very nice bathroom with warm water. They let me checked in early in the morning, though official time is afternoon. Very nice staff. Definitely a place worth recommending. I booked for 1 night but extended to 3.

Review 55:Beds were very firm, a little too firm in fact. Not good for an aging back.

Review 56:It was well located and staff were friendly and helpful. Food was very good. Rooms were clean and had all that we needed. Decor was amazing, great old Siam theme.

Review 57:Origin ally we were offered room 1 a, but it was in the front of the buildiong, on the street with a lot of noise from the street and from the lobby/restaurant/bar beneath it. Try to avoid this room, if possible.

Review 58:we were in room 1 c which was at the back of the building with a balcony that connected to another balcony. Very pretty and much quieter.

Review 59:A bit hard to find.

Review 60:Family environment. Friendly staff who are all talented musicians and will play for you in the evenings. Helpful with any questions and arrangements. Room views. Close to the pier.

Review 61:Bad at English.

Review 62:Nice and friendly staff. Great location. Great view from our balcony on top floor. Steep stairs however (no lift), you need to be fit. Hard and comfortable bed. Breakfast was ok.

Review 63:I think our room was 2A, on the first floor. It was advertised as having a river view, but it didn't because it was not high enough to overlook the buildings on the other side of the road. So they should price it lower to match the rooms with a view of behind the building. The food was also, horrendous. Utterly terrible for us, which is a shame to say because we loved the hotel. Maybe use kitchen only for breakfast, and eat out for lunch and dinner. Still great place though!

Review 64:Amazing interior design, rooms not only immaculately clean but also total eye-candy! It really is a cozy, pretty comfortable little place. Balcony was tidy and nice, great vibe to the place.

Review 65:No lift at the hotel, only stairways, our room is on the 3 floor but it didn't bother us. Travellers with elderly or young children may contact the hotel ditectly for assistance to book your room on lower floors.

Review 66:The hotel located walking distance to markets, shops, restaurants, pier..etc, we just walked everywhere. Room is beautiful and comfortable. We surely return to Krabi Town again. High recommend to visit Baan Koh Klang coomunity. Local people are really nice, they are kind and very helpful.

Review 67:I wish they offered Thai breakfast, not just american. Cleaning wise, there was dust on top of the closet and showerdoor, but I am very picky :) and these are just minor details

Review 68:Everything! The staff is absolutely lovely, very helpfull and sweet. Perfect location to visit krabi an the design of the hotel amazing. Loved everything !

Review 69:Cosy and very nice room. Clean. Low price for value of money. Staff is helpful, friendly and open. They can give you a lot of possibility to organize your free time. Localisation - very good: post office, city center (with market, shops, restaurants, massage salons) everything at your fingertips. Bus stop for airport shuttle bus is located very close.

Review 70:Personally we love everything about the hotel.the stairs may be tricky though...

Review 71:The family n staff - super friendly.they suprises us with a honeymoon cake n stop the bus for us. The deco was great...the room n view were awesome. The room was clean n spacious.We really had a night blast there.tq U-Residence.tqtqtq.

Review 72:Steep spiral staircase and no lift. Have to leave your shoes downstairs. Have to pay 500 bhat Krystal deposit but you leave your key on reception when you Go out anywy

Review 73:Location near to night market for dining al fresco

Review 74:The hotel was really nice to borrow me the shower room for a quick shower after I came back from Tiger Temple, even though I checked out in the morning! Really appreciate that.

Review 75:A bit noisy until quite late at night. Staff friendly but not overly helpful with information.

Review 76:Good location. Nice (if compact) room. Good breakfast.

Review 77:Wifi was a little slow when we were there, and there were no English channels on TV.

Review 78:Gorgeous boutique hotel with charming colonial décor and vibes. The rooms (we stayed in two different rooms) were clean and the bed was really comfy. We enjoyed a room with a river view and slept well here. Staff were helpful and gave us the information we needed. Excellent value for money.

Review 79:As with a very large percentage of hotels throughout Asia the bed was too hard for my fragile back, but this is not a reflection of U Residence, just my waning bones.

Review 80:Everything! The place is very clean and the staff genuinely friendly and very helpful. It is centrally located and within easy reach of all amenities. Island boat tickets can be purchased from the hotel, and they will organise transfer to the pier, which is now 10 minutes out of town. The decor/fittings/fixtures are very cool. Wifi is outstanding, very very fast.

Review 81:Fantastic small hotel in Krabi. We stayed here twice in our Thailand trip and the owner recognised us. Very helpful in organising taxis and ferry tickets.

Review 82:Room was little bit too small, cramped with the kingsize bed. It is mandatory to take of your shoes. Though this is their culture, I don't like people to impose it onto me in the hospitality sector.

Review 83:Fairly priced hotel, with all required comfort. The style of the hotel and the decorations/furniture were the main reasons we choose it, and we were not let down. It has a unique style and is very clean with all required comfort. Due to small size of the (beautiful) room, it was difficult to temperature control the room with AC at night. But I would stay there again given the chance. Excellent location in Krabi town!

Review 84:The location ; we got off the bus from the airport and asked for directions. Very easy to find its on the 2nd main road facing the water. People that ran the hotel could not have been any more helpful. They organised our transport to Phi Phi for a very good price. The hotel was very good. Double room with a colour TV, AC, balcony over looking the street and water, shower with hot water! Breakfast was brilliant, cooked to your order. It is in a brilliant distance to walk round and explore Krabi Town. A lovely hotel!

Review 85:A bit small and breakfast is Not Thai

Review 86:Great service! Great manger!

Review 87:The spiral staircase, its inconvenient to go all the way up especially when you have a luggage and on the very top floor.
