Lotus Paradise Resort

The hotel bar plays loud music until 3am and restarts at 10am. It is really difficult to sleep through this. We also saw a cockroach and a few bugs.

Friendly

To start with we opted for a twin room as we are mother and son but were told that they took a large booking for an event and have hired out the whole floor so we couldn’t have a twin for all 3 nights. So one of the nights we’d have to share a double bed (which had a nicer view in the end). The place is dirty and needs massively updating. The bathroom is gross. The beds are very firm and cheap and if you have a tv in your room it has about 7 channels all in Thai - no smart tv. The staff werent particularly helpful and were disinterested in your custom and encouraged us to find somewhere else if we weren’t happy sharing a bed. The noise levels are LOUD. There is a bar nearby which closes at 1am which is very loud but it’s not the worst. The worst thing is everybody slamming their doors. This is definitely a party persons accommodation not for people wanting a nice chilled holiday. There’s also a lot of work being done everywhere so it’s all a bit of a mess

Horrível! O bangalô não oferece qualquer isolamento acústico ! Até as 4 da manhã é um barulho terrível! Só existe possibilidade de dormir das 4 às 8 da manhã! Veja bem, não é um barulhinho leve… é um barulho que IMPOSSIBILITA DORMIR!! Meu frigobar não funcionou durante toda a estadia! Solicitei reparo três vezes e infelizmente não fui atendido! Não recomendo e não voltaria!!! Pessima experiencia !

Checked in and had £25 taken as a deposit on key. Quite expensive compared to most in the area so expected good things. Most of the hotel was under some kind of construction. There was dog mess in public areas. No safe in the room so i was advised to 'keep all valuables with you'. Soap dispenser didn’t work. Concrete footpath to beach collapsed. Loud music from beach bar until 2am every night. Had breakfast included but still needed to go to the other side of the complex to get a voucher each morning then back to the original side to the restaurant. Not impressed with this place at all.

Toilet wasn’t working and very unorganized staff

This hotel ended up being the most expensive of our whole trip around Thailand and actually the worst in respect of the condition of the hotel and rooms, it needs some investment to upgrade, area around hotel very shabby, lots of rubbish on the beach. The entertainment on beach in the evening was amazing the fire show kept us watching for a few hours, not sure I would visit that particular area again as I felt it is not cared for by the locals or tourists. The pool was closed on our 1st day for maintenance then open the next day but we were out all day then closed again on our 3rd day we expressed our disappointment and asked if we could use another hotel’s pool, we got there in the end and we had a lovely time. We learned that the restaurants only opened till about 9pm so we only made that mistake once. Recommend the snorkelling trip around the island of Koh Tao.

De déception en déception, sale très sale, on avait pas d eau chaude, pas de télé, une clim qui faisait un bruit d avion, de la moisissure, je déconseille

Unfortunately, i didn’t read the reviews as carefully as I should have.The location is perfect.a few steps to the beach.The picture is not of the actual hotel but the pool across the road. Now for the bad part. There is obnoxiously loud! dance rave type pounding base music from 11 to about 2 am. I had to take two glasses of wine and a sleeping pill.The bathroom had mildew around the tub and some on the ceiling. Never stay here again

The wooden cosy house we stayed in was spacious with a good veranda. There's a swimming pool too. It's located in the crowdy site, near the sand beach and between bars and noisy people going out. Needed earplugs for the night. When anything isn't working it's fixed in short time by the helpfull staff. Overall, I can recommend to book a tour or travel at Lotus own booking facility: they take customer care very serious.
