"If you compare this to a Banyan Tree, your expectations are too high. But if you're just looking for a regular hotel for a quick stay, then you've got the right idea.
I drove myself here, and when I pulled up to the entrance, the bellboy was standing there looking at his fingernails for a full minute, completely ignoring me. Even a basic motel has someone greet you. I got out and asked him, 'Is this Angsana?' He said yes. And that was it. I then doubtfully asked him what his job was, and he said, 'To escort guests into the hotel!' He just stood there the whole time; I'd ask, and he'd answer. He made no move to help me with my luggage and even told me, 'You can't park here' – a definite thumbs down!
After checking in, the front desk mentioned the hotel had handicraft activities and that someone would call me to schedule a time. The girl who called, though, spoke so unclearly, stammering and speaking so softly that I had to strain to understand what she was saying.
The room was small, and so was the balcony. Fine, I don't mind; the price reflects that, and I wasn't willing to upgrade to a suite. There were no welcome fruits either.
The next day, I went for the handicraft activity, and the front desk staff said it was at the spa, which meant driving there. It was that same bellboy again, who asked me mid-way, 'Is it here?' I rolled my eyes 🙄, 'You're asking me?' When we got to the spa, he told me that the handicraft activity wasn't there; it was inside the hotel! What?! I'm left wondering if this hotel just opened yesterday! Aren't handicraft activities a daily thing? How could the front desk get it wrong?
After driving around for half an hour, it was scorching hot. Annoying, right? Or were my expectations just too high for them?
Now for the good parts: you can enjoy the hot springs here, and the environment is beautiful – truly up to Banyan Tree standards. BUT! Don't go too late at night; there are too many mosquitoes!
Regarding service: Vivian and Yumi actively helped me resolve issues, and I saw their sincerity. Another older bell staff member was very experienced; interacting with guests requires warmth, and it seems the young bellboy was put on duty without training – he's not suited for a front-facing role; it really brings down the overall experience.
P.S. The afternoon tea was excellent, truly on point."
