Maenam Chinatown Market

Absolutely loved this property. The architecture was breathtaking and grounds were meticulous. The staff was friendly and attentive. The rooms were enormous and beautiful. They included a full kitchen, private pool and even a washing machine. The outdoor shower was a blast as well. The only small detail that would have made the property perfect was the lighting. I saw quite a few of those twirly old and cold fluorescent light bulbs. They just don't match the beauty of the rest of the property and it would be so easy to switch those out to the new warmer LED style bulbs. That being said, I can't wait to go back. It is a fair price for a gorgeous property with nice people.

I would give this place 6 stars if I could. Apart from the beautiful environment and facilities, the thing that makes it stand out the most is the staff and the attention to detail. The staff go out of their way to make your stay feel like luxury - many little freebie extras keep turning up as delightful surprises and everyone is amazingly friendly and genuine. The room and all facilities made us feel like we're in paradise. Thank you

Used to be an amazing nice hotel and In immaculate condition when it was run by Les Meridian. We had stayed there multiple times pre-COVID. Now it’s looking very dated, nothing to do in the hotel (they used to run little events- cooking lessons etc..). Now there’s really nothing to do there. The beach front is dirty and full of litter, plastic and dead fish. This small beach area in front of the hotel used to be cleaned regularly and this is no longer the case. I see other hotels cleaning their beach area daily - this hotel does not. Also Lamai and the immediate area around the hotel also seems to have not recovered from Covid - places we used to go to are gone etc.. All this and they still charge what Les Meridian charged when it’s not as good seems unreasonable. This was our third and last time we will stay there - which is a shame. No fault of the staff and people working there- they are brilliant, just seems to be the people running it trying to do it on the cheap.
