Ich hatte einen rundum sehr gelungenen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das bediente Frühstück – eine tolle Abwechslung zum üblichen Buffet. Die Speisen waren von ausgezeichneter Qualität, frisch zubereitet und sehr lecker. Der Service war in allen Bereichen erstklassig: aufmerksam, freundlich und stets bemüht, jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Man fühlt sich hier wirklich gut aufgehoben. Ein weiterer großer Pluspunkt ist die überschaubare Anzahl an Zimmern. Dadurch herrscht eine angenehme Ruhe im gesamten Hotel. Kein Stress um Liegen am Pool, kein Gedränge – stattdessen pure Entspannung und Erholung. Ich kann dieses Hotel uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen und komme gerne wieder!

Returning to The Library in Ko Samui for the second time was a very emotional experience for me. The first time I stayed here was with my fiancé and it had been one of the most special trips we ever shared. Sadly, he has since passed away, and coming back to a place full of these memories was both difficult and comforting. What made this stay truly special was the warmth of the team. The manager even recognized me again, which genuinely touched me and made me feel very welcome. The hotel itself is still exceptional. The rooms are perfectly maintained—clean, spacious, and beautifully designed. The peaceful atmosphere by the pool and the pristine beach create the perfect place to relax without any pressure. Breakfast remains a highlight, with a fantastic à la carte selection and excellent quality. Coming back here helped me reconnect with meaningful memories and find a sense of peace. This place is truly special, and I’m very grateful I returned.

Lovely Hotel and gorgeous rooms. The staff are beyond nice. They will bend backwards to please their guests and no request is too much. I broke my foot whilst staying at the Hotel and they were very helpful. The only thing that I would not rate very high is the food which was a shame as the Hotel itself is stunning.

Das war unsere 3 Station von Thailand. Wir wollten nicht weg. Als wir abgereist sind in den Norden von ko samui,… wir kamen jeden Tag nach Chaweng zurück. Natürlich ist es Geschmacksache aber vom Strand bis hin zur Lage, stimmte hier einfach für uns persönlich alles. Wenn wir wieder nach Thailand reisen, dann zu 100% the Library. Die Villen selbst waren makellos sauber und bestens ausgestattet – es fehlte uns an nichts.. Unser Fazit: Von der Lage über die Unterkunft bis hin zur Herzlichkeit des Teams – für uns war es eine glatte 10 von 10.

Svært bra hotell. Fine, rene rom. Store rom med stort bad. Frokosten er a la carte, hvor man bestiller fra meny. Det var et bredt utvalg av Thai og vestlige retter, samt varme og kalde drikker. Betjeningen fremsto som profesjonelle, oppmerksomme og behjelpelige til en hver tid. Vil også trekke frem hotellets manager sin profesjonelle væremåte og evne til å strekke seg langt for gjestenes velvære. At dette er det beste, eller et av de beste hotellene på Koh Samui er det ingen tvil om
