Montien House Chaweng Beach Resort

This hotel has been here for a very long time… I’ve stayed a few time myself over the past 30yrs. For the price I don’t think you are going to get a better beachfront hotel that includes breakfast. The staff are lovely & it does have a pool. However it is definitely showing its age now. The rooms are dark as is the furniture and there isn’t anything useful in the room.. tables & stools but no drawers to put away your clothes… there’s not enough plug sockets… one was being used for TV, Kettle & mosquito coil… provide an extension. it needs a refresh of paint… even painting the furniture white.. shabby chic style would brighten & not cost much… our bedding was literally thread bare. I understand that times have been tough with Covid & I applaud them for managing to stay open but little things could make a lot of difference. To make more money have someone go around the pool asking if you want drinks etc… have coconuts piled up so you can order those. There are lots of ways the hotel could improve the facilities & make more money without it costing a fortune. I would stay here again as it’s nostalgic but I do hope that they make a few improvements soon.

Great place too relax in day and good for night time

I will post again that I find this an exceptionally pleasant and welcoming hotel with gracious staff and exceptional service. The grounds are beautiful beyond compare. The only drawback and it does not discourage me, is that it is on the flight path but the flights end before bedtime, so it is not really a problem, the benefits far outweigh the nuisance. Full marks, one of the very best. I will return in January and make my reservations now.

This is one of the most beautifully landscaped places I have ever stayed and my partner and I really loved that and the very, very pleasant, professional staff. The staff were very helpful with making changes, following our wishes for different rooms and providing maid services when needed. Everyone was kind and hardworking- a very well run place. Couple of shortcomings, a noisy air-conditioner should be replaced in 105. We did not rest well. One room's "King Bed" was two doubles pushed together, the middle was uncomfortable for us. We were moved both times and otherwise I just loved the place and we will return for sure. But the "King Bed" should have a thick foam pad like other places to cover up the hole in the center. Again, I will absolutely come back to this place in the heart of the action, yet quiet, great restaurant, pool and nice beachfront- as soon as possible!! Again, the staff were absolutely super!

This is an older style resort, but very comfortable and full of Thai charm. Staff where friendly, breakfast is adequate all the staples, beds were comfy, stunning views from the restaurant and pool. Right on the beach. If your looking for 5 star it's not your place, but for good value and location it can't be beat

The staff were exceptional and we were happy with the amenities and cleanliness.

Been coming to Samui & Chaweng for over twenty years and it’s still nice to be able to stay the old style cottages with veranda overlooking tropical gardens with birds,cats,mosquitoes and frogs in attendance. Montien House has been around forever and the cottages are showing their age with loud air conditioning and old style rooms.They have built a block of more modern rooms away from the garden and also villas with their own small pools so the choice is varied. Breakfast is standard and could be improved though the view overlooking Chaweng Beach is fantastic. Guests are mostly older Scandinavians and other westerners with a smattering of Thais from the mainland. Two minutes walk to the hustle and bustle of Chaweng nightlife or a minute walk to the beautiful beach. Bangkok Airways flight path is directly over the hotel both landing and taking over with first flight at 7am but doesn’t really affect your stay. We were there in low season so beach nightlife subdued but the music can get very loud sometimes. Overall a most enjoyable stay.

Great value for money. Room cleaned every day. Variety of food at breakfast.

Very relaxing, perfect location - walkable distance to everything you’d need!

Good location, 5 minutes walk to 7/11, bars, shops, restaurants and the beach. I could not complain about the room due to the price was very cheap it’s only about 1,300 baht and you have your own private room and private bathroom. The restaurant on the beach is a bit pricey
