Orchid Riverview Hotel

Nice modern hotel, warm-welcoming friendly staff, comfy bed, super clean room, modern and functional furnished, tidy bathroom with walk-in shower, silent aircon, Thai breakfast buffet, free parking. Delicious restaurant in walking distance at the river.

One soon gets the feeling that management policy is cutting corners. From the lack of product in the bathroom, thin towels, extra thin toilet paper, thin tissues on the breakfast table etc. Having said all that, this rather large hotel is well designed with a beautiful foyer reception area. Pool is rather ordinary though. Our room is large with a sofa and a small balcony. Riverview is minimal from our balcony. The most interesting thing for us about the river is a house built in the river and takes up most of the river in front of the hotel... quite bazar. See photo

Bien dans l'ensemble

ห้องพักสะอาด พนักงานต้อนรับดี อาหารเช้าแบบไทยรสชาติดี ที่จอดรถกว้างขวาง แต่สำหรับราคานี้น่าจะมีกาต้มน้ำกับกาแฟบริการในห้องพักน่าจะดี สระว่ายน้ำสวย มีเสียงน้ำตกเพราะสบายหู ด้านหน้ามีร้านสะดวกซื้อกับร้านอาหาร

Very clean rooms; nice bed (although a bit creaky); good bathroom. Breakfast is adequate but hygiene could be better Dont expect many smiles from staff as they are not the friendlist by anymeans Car park is good size but got full when the hotel was full too. Crossroads restaurant (a MUST) is just around the corner Will be back then transitting via Surat Thani.

We stay there for 2 nights to explore the city. The hotel is modern, clean and the rooms are comfortable. The location is perfect to reach nice restaurants and the citypart at the river by a short walk. The hotel has a nice pool as well. Unfortunately the staff was very unmotivated. The staff smiled but that was everything. When we arrive, we had a lot off luggage but instead of helping us they just watched us. In whole thailand we never had a experiance like this. Next morning at the breakfast the selection was very little. The thai food looks delicious but was cold because of no warmer. The tables were not clean and nobody took care about all this issues. So at the second day we prefer to skip the breakfast in the hotel and go to a nice coffe shop outside. At checkout it was the same procedure. Nobody help us with our luggage. The only exception was the housekeeping. They did a really good job. It looks like the hotel has not management at the moment.

The highly recommneded Crossroads restaurant is just around the corner. Breakfasr very very basic but ok. Unfriendly front desk staff just sat on their chairs and no welcome at all but heh this is the new norm i guess Guest rooms great !! TV no English channels if they is important to you.

Nice and clean hotel, all new, and frendly staff

Das Personal ist sehr freundlich,spricht aber kein Englisch Sodas wir uns durch eine Translator App teilweise verständigen mussten. Die Zimmer sind sauber und groß aber verfügen nicht über einenden Zimmer Safe. Das WLAN funktioniert oft nicht. Getränke gibt es aus einen Münz Automaten in der Lobby und der Room Service ist zeitlich stark eingeschränkt . Das Tollste ist das Spiegeleier zum Frühstück nach dem Braten erstmal im Kühlschrank aufbewahrt werden und dann eiskalt zum Verzehr im Frühstücksraum serviert werden. Asiatische Frühstücks Spezialitäten werden dagegen heiß serviert.

The room is more than adequate for the price with a wonderful shower. Breakfast was especially cooked for me. As a Coeliac I travel with Thai Gluten Free Restaurant Card what I showed to the hotel staff what made them aware off my problem with consuming gluten. There was a swimming pool on site what to be fair is perfect to get in to, to cool off. And a gym which I used for the treadmill rather than running on the roads. Out side of the hotel there was a couple of small supermarkets and many shop just the other side of the bridge.
