The Chu’s Boutique Hotel

The service was friendly, and the staff were lovely and attentive to guests.

The room was very clean. It was cleaned very well.

Location and Transportation: I booked this hotel because it's near Khao Lak Beach, and I had a Similan Islands day trip planned for the next day. It's over an hour's taxi ride from the airport. If you're considering taking the bus, make sure your flight lands before 2 PM, otherwise, you'll miss the last bus to Khao Lak Beach at 3:10 PM. We arrived at 6 PM and missed it, so an airport staff member helped us hail a taxi, which cost 1400 Thai Baht (approximately 280 RMB). We clearly saw the taxi driver give the staff member a 200 Baht kickback. Room: The room was odor-free and tidy, but the duvet cover had what looked like blood or lipstick stains, and the bath towels were frayed. Since we brought our own sheets, duvet cover, and quick-dry towels, these issues didn't bother us. Breakfast: The breakfast was quite comprehensive with toast, vegetable salad, tea/coffee, sausages, fried eggs, bacon, and orange juice. We were very satisfied with it.

The hotel is located in the middle of Khao Lak town, about 100 meters down an alley. If you come by car, you can park along the street in the alley. The rooms are not soundproof. The pillow in my room had an old, musty smell that needs improvement, but overall cleanliness was acceptable. Many foreign tourists stay here, so there might be some chattering, but it's usually at reasonable times and not disruptive. There's a swimming pool in the center of the accommodation that guests can use. The staff are lovely and always helpful.

A wonderful hotel in Khao Lak. The rooms are clean, housekeeping is great, the staff are very polite, and the location is excellent. There are many cafes, 7/11s, and massage parlors nearby. It's about a 15-20 minute walk to the sea. Breakfast was simple and tasty. We recommend this hotel and will definitely visit again!
