Guest Reviews
- Fanny (10/5): Bra för oss som dyker - Vi bodde här 5 nätter då vi med dykcenter dök flera dagar i rad. Super gullig personal som hjälp oss med allt.
Vi fick tillomed hjälp när vi skulle åka till nästa ställe och så söt som hon var ägaren berättade hon för oss vad saker med resor m.m skulle kosta så ingen lurade oss framöver.
- Cheyenne (6/5): 2 Star Motel at Best / Photos Deceiving - First off I want to say that on many other trips this hotel / room would have been sufficient but on this trip and at this price I didn't find these rooms acceptable.
From the photos of the property we feel that the photographer did a great job but it does not represent it well.
To be fair if you are in the area to dive and just need a place to crash this will do but this is at best a 2 motel and out does look like there are other options.
The owners on the other hand I would like to say were so nice and pleasant. We had no complaints about them or their service. Just that this property was not what we were looking for at this point in our trip.
- Hadi (10/5): - Amazing staff! They really make you feel at home and help with whatever you need. Cannot recommend them enough. Much love
- karin (8/5): Enkelt, rent, trevligt värdpar - Enkelt mindre o tyst hotell i slutet av gatan.
Vi bodde bara en natt innan vi åkte vidare. Billigt o enkelt, värdparet var väldiga, trevliga o tillmötesgående. De bokade vår transport till båten, bilen kom inte i tid o de ringde flera gånger för att försäkra att vi inte skulle missa båten. Allt gick bra o vi var flera som kom sent till båten pga sena transporter, bokar man ihop med Tiger Line så lämnar inte båten även om bilen är sen.
Inget hotell att bo länge på men helt ok för en eller ett par nätter om man nöjer sig med det enkla. Vi bokade utan frukost, så vet inget om maten.
- Thomas (10/5): semester- toppenställe, valuta för pengarna - Toppen, supertrevlig personal och oerhört hjälpsamma
- Bernd (8/5): Sehr hilfsbereit - Kleines Hotel das von Vater und Sohn geführt wird. Im allgemeinen sauber und ordentlich. Sehr höflich und hilfsbereit. Kann man weiteremphehlen wenn man nicht zu hohe ansprüche hat. Ps. Und ruhig ist es.
- Terje (10/5): Fantastisk sted til en rimelig pris. - Vi har bodd på flere steder på KO Lanta, og nyter feriene der. Forsøkte nå en rimelig variant av hotell, og ble meget positivt overrasket. Hotellet ligger i et rolig strøk, og har en fantastisk betjening, i far og sønn. Vi bodde der i 12 dager og stortrivdes. Bestill rom med sjøutsikt.
- Scott (10/5): - The hotel was nice and quiet. Just what I needed. And a beautiful view of the ocean.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 距离海滩非常近,景色不错,可惜这里的海滩和南边比起来要差一些,设施稍显陈旧,但是员工非常热情非常有帮助,还帮订了打折的游览活动。
- Anne Marie (10/5): Bra läge, fantastisk perdpnal - Lugnt läge. Bra rum för tre vuxna - två separata badrum. Vänlig, hjälpsam personal. De ordnade våra biljetter till Koh Mook med hämtning vid hotellet.
- Sara (8/5): - Efter första natten bytte vi till ett rum med ac och fick då även havsutsikt och solnedgång på köpet. Otroligt härligt att sitta på balkongen och se ut över horisonten! Personalen var väldigt goa, trevliga och hjälpsamma. Åker ni till Koh Lanta så tycker jag absolut att ni ska kolla in detta hotell. Tror att det är ett utav de hotellen som ligger bäst till.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Bien - un petit hôtel simple près du port de Koh Lanta avec un personnels très sympathiques
- Felix (6/5): Bra - Trevlig personal och rum inget speciellt
- Mikko (8/5): 5/5 - Palvelu oli aivan loistavaa. Esimerkiksi hotellin kautta ostettuna kuljetus lentokentältä hotellille maksoi 300 bahtia. Muutenkin lauttakippuja yms tuntui saavan hotellin kautta halvemmalla. Skootterin vuokra oli 200 bahtia/päivä kuten muuallakin. Myös vinkit sukelluskohteista ja rannoista osuivat nappiin.
- Leah (8/5): - The room was clean and comfortable. Front desk service was fantastic. Great area. The building is a bit older and the photos are not 100% representative of the rooms, therefore may be slightly overpriced.
- STEPHANE (10/5): À retenir sur koh Lipé - Super. Hotel dans une ile. Magnifique.
Personnel aux petits soins pour nous .
A deux pas de la Walking street mais au calme .pdj complet et très varié.
A retenir comme. Bonne adresse .
- Rebecca (10/5): Lovely staff and Fine Room! - I wanted a simple room for exploring another area of Krabi and this was perfect. I elected to have a room with a fan, because I prefer natural air even on the warmer side, but they do offer both! This property is clearly well cared for.
The staff went above and beyond to help me. I arrived hobbled by an injury from earlier in my trip and they were so gracious to me! I highly recommend Aloha Lanta and it’s kind and thorough staff!
- Glen (8/5): Great stay - Our stay here was good, we have no complaints about anything. I would like to add that the guys that own this hotel are awesome, willing to do anything for you. They were so nice and helpful
- Kaya (10/5): Sauberes Hotel mit tollem Personal - Hotel ist sehr einfach aber praktisch eingerichtet. Absolut entsprechend dem Preis. Das ganze Hotel ist sehr sauber, der Boden im Lobby wird ständig abgewischt.
Personal ist höchstens bemüht und kompetent, auf einem 4* Niveau.
Thema Strand - Hotel liegt tatsächlich 300m von einem Strand, man muss nur durch den Garten gehen. Auf Grund den großen Unterschieden zwischen Ebbe&Flow ist der Strand manchmal groß, manchmal klein. Es ist sicher kein besonders hübscher Strand, aber bei low Tide kann man sehr weit durch mehr spazieren und das fanden wir voll spannend.
Im Vergleich mit 5 anderen Unterkünften, die wir während unseres Urlaubes in Thailand hatten, fanden wir diesen am saubersten. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder.
Einziges Minus waren die Tücher, wir haben nur einen Badetuch pro Person bekommen, keine kleinere für Hände, wir haben aber auch nicht nachgefragt, ob die Möglichkeit besteht.
- Steven (8/5): Good hotel - Good location friendly staff
- Aki (10/5): Huippupalvelua ja mukavaa majoitusta sopuhintaan - Olimme neljä yötä Aloha Lantassa.
Sijainti lähellä kylän keskustaa rauhallisessa kulmauksessa rannalla oli hyvä, vaikka parhaat uimarannat olivatkin vähän kauempana - niihin pääsi kulkemaan skootterilla. Rantapyyhkeet saa mukaan Alohasta. Myös Lantan keskustaan Saladaniin sekä satamaan oli lyhyt, vain muutaman minuutin kävelymatka.
Huoneet olivat perussiistit ja siivottiin päivittäin. Aamupalaa ei Alohasta saa, mutta viereisestä ravintolasta vain 100 metrin päästä sai.
Parasta paikassa on ystävällinen ja todella palveluhenkinen henkilökunta, jolta sai vinkkejä ja apua monessa asiassa. Yksi seurueestamme satutti jalkansa myöhään illalla vastaanoton ollessa jo kiinni, jolloin isäntäväki haki jäitä ensiavuksi sekä käytti autollaan lääkäriasemalla, jossa olivat myös mukana tulkkaamassa ja odottivat tutkimusten ajan sekä toivat takaisin hotellille.
He myös puhuivat hyvää englantia (ei mikään itsestäänselvyys monessa paikassa). Majoitusliike ei ollut mikään viiden tähden resortti, mutta ei sellaista kyllä luvannutkaan. Mielestämme esittelystä ja kuvista saa paikasta varsin todenmukaisen käsityksen.
- Lindsey (10/5): Good hotel, great staff - Our first impression of Saladan Ko Lanta was that it was a lot more touristy than we expected, but we adjusted pretty quickly. The Aloha Lanta is a short (5-10 minutes depending on our motivation) walk to the ferry dock. We mistakenly did not include air conditioning when we booked but, after the first night, adjusted pretty well with a room fan.
There is a beach of sorts 30 meters from the hotel, but there is a huge sand bar that limits swimming to high tide or the channel where power boats go in and out of the docks.
Getting to and from the hotel took us past dozens of seafood restaurants and the main road (#4245, never found a name for it) has more restaurants and street cafes, our preferred places to find real Thai food (rather than DDTT, dumb-downed tourist Thai meals). There is the Lanta Mart for food and drinks (large Chang beer for 57 Baht compared to 100-130 Baht in a restaurant), lots of dive shops, a 7-11, Lanta Massage (10% off with card from hotel).
The best thing about the hotel was Peter, the host who opened the hotel at 7-7:30 a.m. and closed it at 9 p.m. He was friendly, willing to talk with us (and interested in us), quickly worked to fix a noisy fan, and just an all around great person. When I came down with a 36-hour gastroenteritis illness, he helped my wife cancel our kayaking tour and get a half-day tour for her, provided me with a case of water, and offered to get me electrolyte powder from pharmacy. Can't say enough good things about him.
- Verified traveler (4/5): Overpriced! - Wie fast alle Hotels auf Ko Lanta entspricht auch dieses nicht dem zu erwartendem Preis-Leistungsverhältniss!
- Per (10/5): God beliggenhed - Fantastisk udsigt, rigtigt sødt personale behjælpelig på alle tænkelige måde, tæt på færge, strand, opsamling sted for turer til diverse øer. Kan godt anbefales som lav budget hotel. Tæt på gode restauranter.
- Thom (8/5): Top! - Zeer vriendelijk personeel en schone kamers in goede staat, op een goede locatie!
- Armin (4/5): Hvis du vil kede dig ihjel - Vi havde bestilt værelse med udsigt til haven, det vidste sig at “haven” tilhører nabo huset og i mellem er der en form for losseplads. Stranden ved hotellet er ikke særlig god og bestemt ikke børne venlig. I byen er der ikke som sådan noget at se. Resturanterne ved havnemolen er tilgengæld gode og billige.
- Elin (8/5): - Amazing service from the guys in the reception, he drove and carried our bags and get our laundry done in time for our departure. He also helped us plan our trips. The room was ok with a balcony. The hotel was located close to restaurants and the pier.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Hotel im Zentrum des Massentourismus - Das Hotel wurde über Expedia gebucht. Es wurde mir hierzu ein Transfer angeboten, der mich zu einem völlig falschenHotel brachte, weswegen mir Unkosten von ca. 45,- € entstanden, von der verschwendeten Zeit von zusätzlich 2 Std abgesehen, die jedem eine Freude ist, der schon ca. 20 Std Reise hinter sich hat!
Im Hotel angekommen, war der Service gut und zuvorkommend. Die Zimmer waren recht groß. Der Meerblich war eher sperrlich. Die Sauberkeit war angemessen. Die Lage ist einfach nur enttäschend. Man ist umgeben von Massentourismus.
Für den Preis (Peakseason) von ca. 60,-€/Nacht findet man locker etwas südlicher mit schönerem Strand, weniger Tourismus ein besseres Hotel. Ich habe mich umgehört: Der Preis für einen sauberen, am Strand gelegenen Bungalow(!!!! NICHT NUR ZIMMER) liegt bei ca. 20€,-/Nacht.
Ich werde in Zunkunft nicht mehr über Expedia buchen!
- Cobby (10/5): Wish we stayed longer - We stayed here over New Year for 4 nights and wish we had stayed longer! The hotel staff who were also the owners were great and nothing was too much trouble. We booked a family room and got 2 rooms adjoining. The view from our balcony was really fantastic. For this time of year it was also very well priced and better than our previous accommodation 5km further on. Its also in a good position close to the ferry, lots of restaurants nearby. As for beaches there are lots to chose from but we liked Long Beach which was a short tuk tuk ride. If we ever return to this part of Thailand we will be staying here!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Excellent customer service from hotel staff. Very friendly and always helpful.
- Sara (10/5): Mycket bra - Vi trivdes jättebra under vår vistelse. Fint och rent rum, mycket trevlig och tillmötesgående personal som hjälpte till vid frågor och bokningar. Bra wi-fi på rummet. Ligger lite avsides men det tyckte vi bara var skönt. Bara en kort promenad till marknader, restauranger ligger nära.
- Karen (6/5): Too expensive, not at the beach. - No beach. Some rooms overlooked the water but the nearest actual beach was 2.5km away. Paid quite a lot more than other people paid given their reviews online. More than double actually. No refunds or changes to my booking past a certain point. Neighborhood was safe but filthy/unsightly. Closeby was the touristy part of the Saladan area with many restaurants and shops.
The room was adequate with a mini fridge but no minibar. 2 small bottles of water/day for free. Old TV, small but lots of channels. No side table or closet for luggage. No lamp for reading only bright ceiling lights with switch far from bed.
Owners were lovely and helpful. If I got the same rate as the guests who posted before, I wouldn't expect more from this hotel. I could have done better with my money in Koh Lanta.
- Leanne (8/5): Amazing location & employees, outdated facilities - The location is right by the pier that the boats come in to Koh Lanta. We got a room with an ocean view and it was stunning! The young man who was the only employee we interacted with was very nice and helpful (we ended up also renting a motorbike for the day from him for 200 baht). The hotel is pretty old and doesn't have too much charm, but the price is right, there's AC, beds were fine. All in all I would recommend!
- Oxana (2/5): Disappointing, Not as described, Looked different - The property was under renovation/construction. The bathroom downstairs did not work. There was no hot water, which was not mentioned. The property is a waterfront facility but you can't swim at the so-called beach. Rocks are everywhere plus it is very close to the pier, so oily spots from the boats are floating on top flight of the water. The room was not clean, wet, with bugs and other insects, facing the construction site instead of promised garden view. The hotel itself and the beach look differently compare to what they looked on the pictures at hotels.com. The owner forced me to check in although I was very disappointed and did not wish to stay. I was trying to cancel the reservation and get the refund. They did not let me do so. However, I could jot stay their and had to move to a different hotel down the Cost line and pay extra money. The pay for Aloha has not been refunded.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Incredible staff, mediocre hotel - We stayed 2 nights in this hotel. It's run by a father and son duo. We dealt primarily with the sun and he was incredibly helpful. In some other reviews, it says that the hotel is close to the beach. This is misleading. While there just a tiny tiny beach close to this hotel, it's not really one you would want to spend your time at. The real beaches (that are 1.5miles+ long) are closer to the middle of the island. Although clean, the hotel is quite dated. The TV, for example, is the first non flat screen TV I've seen in many years. If you don't plan on using it, then this is no big deal. The bed is rock hard and the pillows are quite thick. Both myself and my partner woke up in considerable neck and back pain after our first night. We informed the owner and he added some quilts underneath the sheets. While we very much appreciated his kindness and efforts to improve the condition, it only helped a little bit.
At the end of the day, this hotel is far from the beach, we didn't have a view of the water, it's dated and the bed is uncomfortable. The staff are very very nice and helpful and seem like great people. But for a vacation, that simply isn't enough.
- Rick (10/5): Ko Lanta for a week - Wonderful place to stay, every thing is close by restaurants, shopping, the Walking Street has numerous local food vendors each night and the food is fabulous. The hotel staff is great, Peter arranged day trips, scooter rentals all at discounted prices for us.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Good hotel close to Pier/Beach - Good hotel close to Ferry pier.
Good:
Great and helpful host
Location is near north of island, beside a beach.
Not so good:
Can hear music coming from vicinity at night, I think its a club.
The area close to the hotel is very dark, the streets are empty at night.
Beach beside hotel not very popular, the nice beaches are in the middle and bottom of the island.
- Jesper (10/5): Perfekt! - Supernöjda med vår vistelse här!
Vi var ute efter ett billigt och centralt alternativ utan att dra ner på standarden för mycket - och med detta hotell träffade vi helt rätt. Personalen var oerhört hjälpsam, god service med både mopeduthyrning och klädtvätt. Aldrig träffat snällare hotellpersonal.
Hotellet har ett strålande bra läge. Perfekt för de som vill bo centralt med möjligheter till utflykter.
Vi reste som backpackande par och kunde inte ha blivit mer nöjda. Oerhört prisvärt!
- marine (8/5): bon séjour - bon hôtel sauf la vue..
- Verified traveler (6/5): Bra och prisvärt om man behöver någonstans att sov - Skulle överraska några bekanta, och deras hotell var fullbokat! Så behövde något prisvärt i närheten och detta var perfekt!
- Kerstin (10/5): Suverän service - Hotellet är lite äldre och lite slitet, vilket vägs upp av det fantastiska bemötandet av hotellpersonalen. Mycket bra service och alltid hjälpsamma och personliga utan att det blir påklistrat.
- Rasmus (8/5): - Very good budget hotel, it's clean and decent rooms (the ones with sea view will see the beautiful sunset). Beach is right outside the hotel. The best thing about this hotel is the service though, it's a "family run" feeling over it and the guy at reception is extraordinary.
- jean marie (10/5): Hotel avec un accueil familial de grande qualité. - Chambre 3eme étage vue mer parfaite
Disponibilité des hôtes qui ont changé leur horaire du matin pour nous et transport gratuit au bateau
- Anthony (6/5): Clean hotel, very quiet - Front desk service was very helpful.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Locally owned by father and son combo who are really friendly and go out of their way to help you. Would definitely recommend this. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Location is close to many retaurants and is within walking distance to the pier.
- EDOUARD (8/5): Nice little hotel - Really warm welcoming
The tenant are doing everything to make your stay the best.
Close from restaurant and harbor
Front of the beach
Room are ok but nothing to make a statement
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Close to beach, ferries, restaurants, markets.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice hotel and very friendly staff - The aloha Lanta hotel is a very friendly place with spacious rooms and helpful staff. Our balcony was on the seaside. The interior is functional but comfortable. Located near the Lanta harbor and the main streets of Lanta.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice mid range place right by the pier. - Very clean, excellent service, Peter went above and beyoand to make our stay comfortable. Ask about scooter rentals and ferry tickets!
- Akbar Hoosen (8/5): - It was a lovely experience
