RAYABURI HOTEL PATONG

Good confineent

The rooms are great. Really enjoyed staying here.

We stayed at this hotels for 2 nights and we loved it, the location is perfect and the staff is very friendly.

The hotel is very clean and excellent location but they have no elevator to my room . I had very hard time carring my bags and going up/down everyday.

Good

We stayed in the “family rooms.” It was two rooms with two beds in each room. Each room had a door but only one door actually opened. It also had two bathrooms but the shower in one had several holes in the bottom so the water drained not down the drain but elsewhere into the floor. It also felt like you were in danger of falling through. When we brought it to the attention of the staff they said they have known it for a “long time” but it couldn’t be fixed. The second bathroom had a tub with a shower wand but no shower curtain so we could only take sit-down showers. Another issue was that we could only have one key which caused difficulty with four people coming and going for a beach vacation. They claimed to have a swimming pool but it was two buildings away on the fifth floor and was the size of two hot tubs. Not convenient. Our room was on the fourth floor. Mind you the lobby, hallways and small elevator were not cool and the temperature was in the 90s every day of our stay so it felt like you were in a sauna until you entered your room. We got off the elevator on the fourth floor then had to go down two sets of stairs, through a landing, and up another flight of stairs. Very uncomfortable on a good day but extremely stressful with luggage. See picture attached. Fortunately the location was great but since all money was nonrefundable we stuck it out for our six day stay.

Located right next to the beach. But even better for me next to a food court. Laundromat, massage shop, whatever you need all within walking distance. Bangla road is just the down the way. So for me this hotel was all about location. But what did set it aside was it's nice bathtub. After soaking in the ocean all day it was good to come back and soak in a hot bath. One thing I found odd.... Not that I needed. But to bring anybody back to your room, it's an additional 500 baht

The hotel location was very convenient as it was walking distance to a lot of shops, restaurants and the beach. Staff was very polite and kind but there were a few things we weren’t made aware of before checking in as we booked through Expedia. They require $2000 baht room deposit CASH only upon check in so have money available. They do a walk through of your room upon check out to make sure everything is in order before giving you your deposit back; this took about 10-15 minutes. The couch in our room had multiple existing stains which made us not want to sit on it. They don’t allow durian and mangosteen in your room and will give you a fine if they see it; housekeeping will notify management and they will send you a warning letter with pictures. Their pool/jacuzzi was down during our visit so we didn’t get to use that. Overall, it was a good stay. Just wish we were informed of certain things in advance before booking.

I felt comfortable at overall

Clean, quiet and located close to main road

The room is clean. Hot shower not consistent most time cold. But next to everything

Good place to stay

Ok

Wonderful staff

Property is very old, beds are as hard as a rock, staff are rude and unhelpful, swimming pool makes your skin & clothes turn yellow, spa is cold. Bed makes a lot of noise and makes for a terrible sleep

😊

I cannot rate TOO harshly because I knew what I was getting into when booking it and seeing the reviews. I do think many of the poor reviews are from people thinking they were getting some resort property. However, with that being said, the pictures posted by the property are not a good representation, check out google maps street view for a more realistic image. We loved that it was so close to Patong Beach as we are young and love the business and accessibility to bars, restaurants, etc. However we found it odd that the hotel has an entire separate building down an alley, which seemed to be empty other than the rooftop pool. When the front desk lady showed us to where it is, I was very confused as to what was going on there. Anyways, my biggest gripe about my stay was the fact that we, quite literally, woke up in pain each morning as the “mattresses”, are box springs. I am not one to stay in the hotel a lot on vacation, but a comfortable bed is a must and by my last night, I was almost in (happy) tears thinking about sleeping in a different bed. The best part of this property is the distance to the beach, and the nice woman with glasses that was at the front desk for most of our stay. I have also never had to wait while they inspect my room before check out, but I guess since they didn’t have us put down a credit card at check in, this is somewhat fair. The elevator also was out for part of our trip which would have been frustrating if we had to carry our bags up and down.

The staff were great managed a quick room upgrade after original room aircon was noisy and only for a few extra $

Nice hotel

Very good
