Cheap Hotels in Koh Larn

"Cleanliness: Being on the first floor near the pool, there were quite a few insects, and the hotel didn't provide any mosquito repellent, which was a bit disappointing. I guess it's on par with guesthouses and hotels in mainland China. Facilities: After spending time at the beach, I went directly to the pool. Many areas around the pool were quite slippery, and it felt like they hadn't been cleaned in a long time, so it wasn't particularly clean. Service: The hotel didn't provide disposable toiletries like toothbrushes or toothpaste, which is a big deal. Also, the hotel is a bit far from 7-Eleven, so you'd need to ride a scooter for about 7 minutes to buy toothbrushes, toothpaste, and other necessities. There's a small snack shop about a two to three-minute scooter ride from the hotel, which offers good value for money. The hotel does provide scooters for rent at 300 THB, and the price isn't negotiable. However, the average price for scooters on the street is around 200 THB. If convenience is key, renting from the hotel is an option, but if you want to save money, you can ask around on the street for a 200 THB rental. For water activities, always remember to bargain; cutting the price in half is usually a good strategy."

"The room was beautiful, and the service and breakfast were great. My only complaint is that the bed was incredibly hard, and so were the pillows – I couldn't sleep at all. Even my partner, who usually prefers firm pillows, couldn't bear it and had to sleep on the window seat. I woke up with a headache and a stiff neck. All three pillows provided were hard. I'd suggest the hotel invest in just one good quality pillow instead. Getting a good night's sleep is crucial for a relaxing trip. I'm quite disappointed because the room itself was lovely, it's a shame. If asked to return, I'd probably hesitate because I really couldn't sleep. I finally drifted off around 5 AM after enduring it all night. The pool also had a bit of dust."

"The hotel is very close to Naban Pier, and the guesthouse owner will come to pick you up. They'll send you their contact information in advance via Trip.com. When you're about to arrive at the pier, just message them, and they'll tell you where to wait. They also help drop you off at the pier when you leave, which is very convenient. The owner is *********, and several of the staff speak Chinese, while others speak Thai. We were lucky enough to get a sea-view room on the day we arrived, which was quite nice and even suitable for fishing. The overall environment is decent, though the smaller rooms can be a bit cramped. If you can snag a sea-view room, definitely go for it. We were fortunate that day as there was one available for a day, so we took it. Our neighbor also rents out motorbikes, and you can get a slightly cheaper rate if you rent from them."

"Wonderful stay. Beautiful beaches. Sea water is clear. Hotel staff couldn’t have been more helpful, getting us tuk tuks around the beautiful island. Wonderful hotel."

"Loved the accommodation, it was so peaceful and quiet! ✨ They even offer squid fishing at night. If you don't feel like going out, you can rent a fishing rod and try your luck. Breakfast is served right to your room, and the congee is absolutely delicious! 👏 They also have motorbikes for rent, with free fuel throughout your trip! 🏍️ If you're looking for a relaxing getaway but only have 3 days and 2 nights to recharge, I highly recommend this place! ✨🌴🪸🐚"

"We felt like we'd stumbled into paradise. It's a very quiet, secluded spot. We contacted the hotel in advance, and they met us at Naban Pier and also took us back there later. The ladies at the reception were very sweet. We were greeted with a welcome cocktail (margarita) and toffees. They processed our documents in just 3 minutes and handed us the key to a motorbike (which was free for us, included in the room rate). The room was clean, bright, and beautiful. Everything in the minibar was complimentary (the tea was delicious, excellent coffee, chips, nuts, cookies, raisins, drinks). They provide bathrobes, rubber and disposable slippers, toothbrushes with toothpaste, cotton swabs, a shower cap, a razor, combs, soap, and shampoo – everything you could possibly need. There’s also an extra beach bag and an umbrella. We booked a room with a bathtub and a sea view. The bathtub was large; two people could easily fit, even with my husband being 1.87m and me not being tiny. The view was stunning. Sunrise in the morning, the sea during the day, and Pattaya's lights at night. There were many lighting options you could turn on in the evening to create a romantic atmosphere. There's also access to a small terrace with very comfortable seating and an ashtray, for anyone who smokes. The mattress and pillows were very soft, and the bed linen was good. There were air fresheners in both the room and the toilet. The main pool is small, but you can spend some time there in the evening. I must especially mention the breakfast. It wasn't just tasty, it was magnificent; everything was fresh. We couldn't eat it all – the portions were huge! We absolutely loved it and highly recommend it. We will definitely come back here ourselves, next time for a whole week."

"I booked a garden view room, so it wasn't right by the pier; it was a few minutes' walk to get inside. The furniture was a bit dated. There's no swimming pool. It felt pretty average. There were a few other places nearby with pools that looked newer. There's no phone in the room, which made communication a bit inconvenient, especially since my phone plan doesn't include calls."

"The service was great! They offer pick-up and drop-off at the pier. Everyone was smiling and friendly, and any issues were resolved quickly. It's only a 3-4 minute ride from the pier. The electric cart is brand new and looks really nice (it's orange). There's also a chubby dog and lots of cats. Breakfast was quite simple... The environment is good, but we usually just went straight to the beach after waking up. The room was a standard size, but the bathroom was particularly large. Overall, I think it was pretty good. There were quite a few small animals (like geckos), but they weren't really a problem."

"We booked a room with a sea view, and the view was gorgeous. The only downside was the trash that washed up with the tide. The breakfasts were the same every day, which could get boring if you're staying for a long time, but for our 4 nights, it was fine. You can also rent a scooter directly from the hotel without a deposit."

"I can't understand how this hotel got such a high rating. They don't respond to emails. They don't answer questions on the Trip.com chat. Our booking was mixed up. We booked a 'Sweet' room, but they had us down for a 'DeLuxe' for some reason. The price was roughly the same when we booked. We asked to switch rooms (at check-in) and were moved from DeLuxe #3 to Sweet #2 for an additional 700 baht! I then asked to change from room #2 to #1. They said it was already booked. I pointed out that when booking, you only select the room type, not a specific room number. They got flustered... but still insisted that room #2 was the only option. For anyone booking: the best rooms with views from the window and the top deck are DeLuxe #1 and Sweet #1. The room wasn't clean; there was trash lying around. An empty chip bag was in the bin. This isn't just dirtiness – it's an indicator of poor standards. There was a used towel on the hanger. No bathrobes were provided. The top floor was sandy everywhere, including on the sun loungers. I guess they're trying to create a beach atmosphere :) The windows were dirty. The bathtub was worn. The air conditioning was noisy. They only give you one key card. If you leave the card in the slot when you step out of the room (e.g., to your own top floor), the door locks behind you (and you can't open it from the outside). If you take the card out, when you close the door, the electricity cuts off, with all the consequences – AC turns off, phones stop charging, etc. I asked for a second key card, but they refused. This is just ridiculous... they're cutting corners on AC... and on their reputation. As an option, you could bring an extension cord and plug it into the 'refrigerator' outlet :) Seriously... it's the 21st century. Overall, it's a so-so hotel. For this price, I think there are much better options. Its location, yes, is good. I understand the laid-back nature of the Thais, but there's a limit. I don't want to stress out on vacation, and who does! So, weighing all the pros and cons, the cons definitely outweigh the pros. I don't know about you, but we are definitely not coming back here. Especially for that money... there are genuinely decent options nearby. And my peace of mind is more important! Breakfasts... were decent. There's a tasty build-your-own soup with a rice base and meat (meatballs), mushrooms, various toppings, etc. A small bowl of fruit and a tiny bowl of yogurt with 3-4 blueberries and 2-3 kiwi slices. They also bring a plated portion with an omelet or two fried eggs, two sausages, two pieces of bacon, two small triangular pieces of sausage, etc. Overall, breakfast was more or less okay. There were no issues with the transfer from the hotel to Na Ban Pier. We took the ferry departing at 9:30 AM. The trip to Bali Hai Pier took 30 minutes. After a couple of ferries sank, they now seem to be counting passengers and trying to avoid overloading."
