The hotel location is really nice.. basically you have everything like 7 eleven, massage shop, restaurant,  night market .. all within walking distance. Stuff and services all are awesome. The hotel is kids friendly. Your kids can just stay inside for 3D2N not getting bored. Just one things we do not like, our rooms and the breakfast area have many mosquito.

A decent option, with a fantastic location. It's just a 2-minute walk to the beach, and the pool is open 24/7 with plenty of sun loungers. The grounds are cleaned early every morning, keeping everything spotless. There are tons of restaurants, markets, and massage parlors nearby. The rooms are very spacious, though they haven't seen a renovation in a while, and have huge balconies on all sides. Room cleaning isn't great, but that's a tiny drawback. The staff are very responsive at any time of day. For a beachfront property, the price-quality ratio is simply amazing!

Good location near Kata night market and walking street. There are three swimming pools and hours are reasonable. The room is clean although the facilities are outdated. There are no electrical outlets near any bed side. This is probably the least preferred Centara among all Centaras where we have stayed. The worst experience was breakfast. Not enough food as 50% food containers is empty. We asked the service people to fill them up. First, they responded to us to wait, then 30 minutes later, the containers were still empty. We at least asked three times within 30 minutes, finally, they admitted that they ran out of food, and we have up our breakfast. It would be very difficult for us to return to that particular Centara.

Pros: Excellent location, close to the beach, nice hotel environment, with children's entertainment facilities, and a rich breakfast.

Cons: The hardware facilities are a bit old, the lobby is quite low-end and very hot. There were no welcome drinks or towels upon check-in, instead, they had a Starbucks where you had to buy your own. For a family-friendly hotel, it's not very accommodating to children; we were charged an additional 4200 Thai Baht for 4 nights for a child not occupying a bed (whereas many other hotels in Phuket offer free stays for children). Furthermore, the hotel doesn't offer Chinese-speaking service. The check-in time is late and check-out time is early (3 PM check-in, 11 AM check-out), which goes against international norms.

Extremely satisfied! When I booked, I mentioned it was for our wedding anniversary and requested a sea-view villa with a good view. During check-in, the chubby guy at the front desk was super thoughtful and gave us room 403, which he called the 'best sea view'. We could see an unobstructed ocean view right from the bed – absolutely stunning! The room wasn't huge but perfectly adequate for two, and they even folded towel swans and provided a welcome fruit platter 👍. 

Breakfast at the hotel's Cliff Restaurant had a wonderful ambiance and setting; enjoying breakfast with a sea view was incredibly relaxing. 

Both the large and small pools were beautifully arranged on different levels, surrounded by lush greenery, making for a pleasant sight. 

Since the hotel is located on a hillside, there's a bit of a distance between the rooms, lobby, and restaurant. However, it's quite convenient as you can download the hotel's app to call for an internal tuk-tuk anytime for pickup and drop-off. 

There's a pathway from the hotel down to Karon Beach, but we decided against going because of the sun and opted to just relax in our villa instead.

The only downside is that because it's on a hillside, there are no restaurants or shops nearby, so you need to take a taxi to go out. Karon Avenue isn't far though, just a few minutes drive downhill. From a 'lie flat and relax' vacation perspective, I personally highly recommend this place.

Others are OK, the front desk obviously discriminates against Chinese, the private pool villa booked, the first day reflects that the pool water is too dirty three times, all bug bodies and leaves, and the dead water is not circulating, so the staff can help deal with it. Is it deaf? ? Oral promise three times and no one comes? ?

This stay at a five-star hotel in Bangkok was honestly such an unforgettable experience for us. We were visiting to celebrate our anniversary, and since we’re both pretty introverted, we didn’t mention anything special when making the reservation.

When we checked in today, the staff kindly asked about the purpose of our trip, and my husband mentioned that we were celebrating our anniversary. The staff truly went above and beyond to prepare such an amazing surprise for us. They upgraded us to a beautiful suite on the 47th floor with a huge living room and an incredible night view of Bangkok.

When we came back from sightseeing later that day, we were completely overwhelmed by how thoughtful everything was. The room was filled with surprises and lovely details — delicious chocolates, champagne, roses, and even two swans folded from towels. We were deeply touched and honestly felt so emotional. It made our anniversary trip even more special and memorable.

we had quite a short stay here but absolutely loved it. they had the ABSOLUTE BEST breakfast in the whole hotel breakfasts world - both european and asian types were full of choices and i genuinely couldnt decide where to start. the entire hotel left me speechles with the decor it was really beautiful. the gym had such a nice view of the pool and the surrounding garden. it is also very close to the public transport, shopping malls and night markets. if you consider staying here, definitely yes - you will remember it for a very long time.
i cannot wait to come back again

Location of the hotel is great and walking distance to big c and central world. Lots of massage shops along the walkway. Front desk is very helpful and friendly. Check in is very efficient. They gave us souvenirs on the last day of our stay which is very thoughtful. Room is very spacious and clean . Would definitely stay in this hotel again .

I love this the part of old Bangkok and always prefer to stay in this area. And Centara was the perfect place for our trip. We loved everything about it. It has  a cute pool, gym and nice restaurant, and room are modern and had all we needed, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. We are waiting to come back there again.
Also they have complimentary tuk-tuk to Khalistan road every hour, but check with reception about it.

Convenient for visa extension as directly connected to Government complex (Immigration) under one roof.  Front desk, housekeeping efficient and friendly.  Parking guard Gf was the opposite.  Told us to turn inside the building though we have informed him we booked into the hotel and made us going around for the first 2 floors only to find out all parking lots have been permanently blocked off.  Upon our distressed   final approach, we were told to go to 4f where bridged directly to the hotel building.  Otherwise, could have been a comfortable stay.

The hotel isn't very close to the beach, but there's a free hourly hotel shuttle running until 8pm. The swimming pool is great with 2 cool areas for kids to play. There's a sandbox and  an indoor play area. Rooms are big enough and come with a nice balcony, with a table and 2 chairs. Bathroom could be a little cleaner. The area around the hotel looks like a wasteland, but fortunately can reach a 7/11 and 2 other supermarkets within a 10-minute walk.

We chose a two-bedroom suite for our family trip to Pattaya. It was great, as the two rooms were connected and had three large beds, easily accommodating 5-6 people. Centara is a well-known company in Thailand, and the hotel's location is fantastic, with plenty of restaurants right outside. Terminal 21 shopping mall is also only about a kilometer away. Aside from the slightly dated facilities, everything else was perfect. Even though there were many Indian guests, it didn't bother us at all.

Older hotel in a quiet location, good location if you’re mainly going to soi 6. Still close enough to city center with a short ride. Minibar in the room is nice.
