Holiday Inn Resort SAMUI BOPHUT BEACH by IHG, an IHG Hotel

Great hotel for families with children. Big pool, spacious rooms, kind staff and good service

Sehr nettes, zuvorkommendes Personal. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und der Nachtmarkt sowie unzählige Bars und Restaurants sind gut per Fuß erreichbar. Die Hotelanlage wirkte insgesamt sehr gepflegt. Wir waren mit Kleinkindern angereist und hatten das Gefühl, dass alles perfekt auf Familien mit Kindern ausgelegt ist.

We stayed at the hotel for 12 days as a family with a toddler, and overall, we had a wonderful time. Here’s what we particularly enjoyed: What we loved: • The family room was fantastic – well laid out, beautifully furnished, and with very comfortable beds. • The breakfast was of high quality with a great variety, and even after nearly two weeks, it didn’t feel repetitive. • The entire resort is beautifully landscaped and green. The pools are lovely and there were always sunbeds available. • The location is excellent – right on the beach promenade with many restaurants within walking distance. The beach itself was nicer than expected and great for swimming (even though Ko Samui has more famous beaches). • The indoor kids’ club was a great place for our 2-year-old to play, and we appreciated that it was pleasantly air-conditioned. • The friendliness of the staff stood out. It’s also worth noting that IHG seems to be an inclusive employer – we saw several team members with disabilities actively working, which we truly appreciated. What could be improved: • The hotel’s pricing policy felt exploitative at times. Drink prices were generally overpriced. The “Happy Hour” was especially frustrating – it advertised “Buy 2, get 1 free,” but suddenly a Mojito cost 450 THB instead of 300. Not okay. Also, the airport transfer was overpriced at 600 THB compared to 400 THB with a local taxi. • Cleanliness in the hallways and walkways cou
