Overall the hotel was good value for the money. The bungalows are close to the beach and stort walking distance to the Thong Sala «strip» with bars. The Food is ok. The beach is ok but the Water is increadibly shallow so the swimming experience is not the greatest. I guess you have go to north side to Get better bathing. The bungalows are ok but with no insulation so drunk kids and Russians that sit drinking and takling outside their bungalows late at night may be a bit disturbing. I rented a motorbike for a day and was to forced to pay for scratches on exhaust pipe that clearly was old ones but I didnt have photo to prove them wrong. This is a lesson learned for me and it wont happen again.
Stayed for 21 nights at Go Samui Hotel. Right from the start I was impressed by the staff especially the young man at reception (Tum) he was kind enough to allow us to check in early. Otherwise we would have had to hang around for 3 hours. We got a friendly greeting from the staff every day which appeared genuine. The hotel is located at the most northern end of Chaweng Beach but you have to walk for about 10 minutes before you get to the first point of entry to the beach. it is well worth the walk.
has a nice little pool which is adequate for just relaxing.
we had a great time there and would stay there again.
When thing go wrong, as they do, you know how good the attitude of the hotel is by they way they go about solving problems. At Go Samui the staff were pro active when there was a problem, never looked for excuses and came up with solutions.
There was an incident with the transformer that blew out the electricity. The staff worked hard to resolve this and when it looked as if they might not get the electricity back up, they organised alternative accommodation plus they covered the taxi fees. The electricity came back on as I was packing and I decided to extend my stay at Go Samui because of this.
