Al's Resort

Very nice Hotel. I got a Update from the Girls at the Reception. Nice Room direct at a quiet Pool. Early Check-In was no Problem. AC was strong, Room Clean and great Breakfast Restaurant.

The positive thing about this place is that it is extremely centrally located on Chaweng beach with walking distance to the beach front and the big mall nearby, with plenty of restaurants and easy access to tours and transportation. The staffs are friendly and the house-cleaning seems to be great also. There are some downsides, however. 1. The breakfast was extremely crowded especially in the morning with very very limited options. I once saw about dozens of people simultaneously handing tickets for the only chef at the egg station, which resulted in very long wait time (I didn't even get the food, they lost the ticket). 2. The other guests are extremely loud at all hours of the day even deep at night. The hotel should really implement a quiet hour policy. 3. There were also a lot of trash on the beach in front of the hotel and no one is bothering to pick it up. All facilities are massively over-utilized and the entire place feels crowded. 4. The room felt very old and (understandably) damp, with very poor Wifi reception. The overall Wifi reception at this hotel is poor and occasionally the Wifi is just completely down. 5. The restaurant was on the expensive side. You do have to walk a bit to find more reasonable prices (for me).

The resort is clean and cozy. The staffs are mostly friendly and approachable. I believe it’s the best location for me as I can go to the beach on one end and the other end I can go straight easily to the Mall. Location is quite convenient and it was not hard to get a grab at all. Breakfast selection was great with a great view.

Water pressure of the bathing tape is not strong, breakfast is good but if the dishes can change a little bite everyday may be more attractive to the hotel guest!

Excellent location, comfortable bed, but very dated furniture and amenities. There’s a lot of potential here, and in the off-season the price is definitely very reasonable. I would stay again if the price is right, and if the price was too inflated, I would look elsewhere. However, keep in mind that it is still very close to everything, but it is in a very quiet location. 

We were in the old part, a genuine throwback in tbe seventies 😄 After a shower it was a complete flooding of the room. 😄 Unfortunately the hotel is running down. It's very sad because there's potential. The hotel beach was the best part.
