Chom View Hotel

I couldn’t find the seaside swimming pool shown in the photos advertised, which made me quite confused whether it was the same place I had booked. The room lighting was very dim with an orange tone, almost like a horror movie scene. Even with all the lights on, it still wasn’t bright enough. There was a menu and an operator’s phone number provided, but I couldn’t find the room telephone. No toothbrush or toothpaste was provided—only a small round soap, an all-in-one shampoo & body wash, cotton buds, and a shower cap. No indoor slippers either. As for breakfast, there was no fried egg. The buffet included ham (pork and chicken), sausages, salad with mayonnaise, sweet balsamic, and Thousand Island dressing. For Thai food, there was stir-fried chicken with ginger and a clear soup with chicken balls and winter melon. Overall, I would say the breakfast was just average.

I have an immense fondness for the hot tub located in the shower room; its temperature is just perfect hot, making it a key reason for my commitment to returning. Moreover, there are numerous other appealing features that make staying here worthwhile. It's just a one-minute walk to the beach, with a stunning beach view pool and a poolside bar adding to the allure. Additionally, a mere 500 meters away are convenient amenities such as a rental bike shop, a bustling night market, and Big C supermarket, all of which enhance the overall experience and convenience of the location..

Missed Potential Despite Good Location and Spacious Rooms The hotel has friendly staff and a well equipped espresso bar, which unfortunately is butchered by the ”barista” who turns a very capable manual espresso machine to something worse than instant coffee. Its location is excellent for the price, and the pool by the ocean is a highlight for families. The rooms are spacious, which is a plus, but unfortunately, the overall experience falls short. Cleanliness is a significant issue. Our balcony was covered in cobwebs and insect remains, and furniture above eye level had layers of dust. The mirrors, while stylish, were poorly cleaned and still had toothpaste marks from previous guests. Several lightbulbs were broken and not replaced, and one of the windows had a damaged sunshade. Low-quality repairs were noticeable throughout the room. The hotel has two pools, but one has been closed and repurposed as a sand garden, seemingly for an extended period. The remaining pool is poorly maintained, with sand accumulating from ocean spray, indicating a lack of regular cleaning. The hotel grounds are neglected, with debris, rotting vegetation, and pinecones scattered around. Walking barefoot near the pool is uncomfortable and potentially unsafe. While the spacious rooms and prime location have potential, the lack of proper maintenance and cleaning overshadows these positives. Despite being affordable, the overall experience leaves much to be desired. Improvements in upkeep and attention to detail are urgently needed.

Stayed here for 3 nights. Not bad at all if you're running a budget. There are duplex units for the bigger families. We stayed in the older section, one bedroom. It's a bit vintage on the eye, but overall, it's not bad at all. Ideal location, on the beach, walking distance to Tamarind and Cicada market. Enough entertainment from young to the elderly. Pub we frequented was Baan Nokkachan! Cicada plenty brick n brac and loaded with artistic arts all over the place and that night a live Jazz band! Tamarind market is opposite with a variety of delicious foods and drink choices! Point to note that Cicada, Tamarind and Baan actually get a 5 star rating from me

Hotel was a little dated but not bad at all. The breakfast has many options and is a good value for the money. The pool was nice and has good seating. The water seems clean but the pool itself is old and could use some work, but over all it is not bad. The beach is very close and the Cicada market is a short walk away. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were cleaned daily. Over all it is was happy with my stay. I look forward to a visit in the future.
