The ideal resort to stay at on Koh Lsnta.
We were impressed by the hotel. The pickup from the pier went smoothly. The bungalows were great. Staff very friendly. The meals were delicious and a live band played every night. The pool was very clean. The sunsets were stunning. We would definitely recommend this hotel.

The outside area of the hotel is lovely, there is a nice bar with music and restaurant on the beach. There is also a small pool area, which helps a great deal to cool down in the heat! The rooms themselves are fine, has the basics but could use a little freshen up. If your after just a place to sleep and wanting to be out of the room most of the time then this place is good. The road which the hotel is on is currently under construction, which looks a bit chaotic but once you are in the resort/on the beach its not noticeable. Renting a moped from the hotel is easy, and the location is great to visit the rest of the island.

3 rating is fairly accurate
Not the best, but not the worst... the rooms have bugs as the housekeepers don't close the doors when they're cleaning so all the mosquitoes come in during the day. Also the beach is very rocky and unswimmable. Breakfast was decent though

Nice hotel to stay and comfy clean rooms.
The hotel was great but we were there during low season so the restaurant and all extra facilities except pool were closed which was unfortunate as it looks like it would be a nice place. Note the beach was very dirty during low season.

Big room and beds. Comfortable for family.
I will not recommend this hotel for family with kids. It was bad experience when one of reception staff advised me to slow down my kids voice when they swim around 0730 in the morning with her sour face. If you have kids , what you expect? It's happened in first morning and ruined my entire stay at this hotel. First male staff who assist us upon check in was so friendly and helpful.

Perfect holiday, amazing value, great staff
We were thrilled we had chose here as it was perfect. The beautiful gardens and nice relaxing pool beside the beach was exactly what we were looking for. The staff were always there on hand and were very polite and always helpful. Our rooms were big and clean ad our whole stay was flawless. Loved the island too, perfect to get away from all the touristy places.

cozy little resort directly on the beachfront
We loved being directly on the beachfront and enjoyed the nice pool area and surrounding tropical gardens. The staff were exceptional and made us feel very welcome. They provided us with help and information about where to go, what to do, good restaurant and bar recommendations and also helped us with our airport transfer on short notice. We would highly recommend this resort.

Not what it says on the tin!
Lamta pavillion was not what I expected from the hotels.com website. I was planning on being here for a week to get caught up on work before relaxing but there was no wifi in the room as advertised. There was also just a small tv. The premesis where nice and for £9 a night I shouldnt complain to much but its frustrating when you book expecting certain things that are not there. The beach was also very rocky, the beach down klong nin is much better

The staff went above and beyond!
The staff earned Pavilion 5 stars rating from my wife and me. They were ultra friendly (Thailand is good like that!) providing service with a smile. But it was the little things that made me smile. For example, after trimming the coconut tree, they graciously offered my wife one of her favorites: coconut water. The masseuse offered her grapes - btw get a massage by the beach; total awesomeness. And Robert, the manager, needs special props. Let me explain.... My wife was looking at restaurants with dining on/near the beach and I thought: I can do better than that, I could set up a table on the beach myself along with candles, sunset, and the whole beach to ourselves (minus a few friendly felines). So I asked Robert if he could help and without hesitation he eagerly said sure. Met the cook and set a time all without the wife knowing. The staff at the Pavilion did an outstanding job, from the presentation and taste of the food, flowers, candles, music (they brought out a stereo just for us), cleaning up the beach, and just in time to watch the sunset, the wife was VERY happy. This made our trip and earned me a few brownie points :) All of this at a superb price of going during the off season. Thanks again to the staff at the Pavilion for going above and beyond.

Great Hotel, Great Beach, Great Stay!
The Lanta Pavillion is a great choice while on Koh Lanta. The Beach, although rocky when the tide is low, is great! It's clean, and during high tide you can relax on the lounge chairs, swim in the gin clear waters. During low tide, it's a bit more difficult to swim in the ocean, but you can always hang by the pool or rent a scooter to visit nearby Saladan area for some shopping; or head South for a visit to the undeveloped beaches. The Beach offers a relatively decent night life that is perfectly balanced. If you want to head out on a tour, they are super helpful providing you various options always taking into account your budget and expectations. Ask to speak with the Manager, Rob, he is amazing and wants nothing more than to make guests happy. The restaurant's food is typical in price and offerings. However, there is room for improvement Ie: Hamburger patty should be at least half the size of the bun. Fresh milk with coffee rather than coffee whitener. If resorts had table tents that offered English to Thai translation on food and basic requests for patrons and staff alike, it would alleviate issues pertaining to allergies, or preferences when ordering thus removing the potential for errors, as well as give people the opportunity to learn a bit of the language which is always appreciated by locals (just a suggestion for the customer experience). Overall, I would recommend a stay at The Pavillion.

Not a relaxing holiday...
There might be 2 rooms that are sea view and the garden view rooms have bushes to look at which are in front of the path that goes from road to beach -- not a peaceful garden. Rooms were OK but NO dressers/ drawers or hooks for towels and wet bathing suits. Bathroom was the shower. No toilet paper down the toilets on this beach. Hotel was OK - staff were helpful if you had the time for your request to pass between 3 - 4 staff before getting an answer. Patience with this usually won out. Beach is only useable at high tide because it is full of coral at low tide. The nights were the worst - noisy, noisy NOISY. The beach is a party beach and every 4th hotel had live music until the wee hours and every hotel has a bar at the beach with blaring music. Not restful at all. So no - the rooms are definitely NOT soundproof as the advert states! The hotel properties are long and narrow and so the next hotel is right at your window. It was very easy to get into Salandin the town, and we did that several times. There are numerous SCUBA places in town but it is a little pricey here. Much more than expected! If you don't want to relax and you like the parties then you might enjoy this hotel. There are lots of hotels up and down the beach for restaurants. Just be warned the advertising for this hotel is a little over the top - exageration at its best, but there was nothing horrible about it. Just a little disappointing for what I expected.

Very nice place
Nice place, nice restaurant, expensive tours(so buy them in other agencies. Room p12 has a peculiar small door to e bathroom, and I knocked my head on it repeatedly. Staff work very hard in 14+ hour shifts it seems, an no representatives in the reception after 22:00. So one night our ac broke and we could get hold of no one.... The following day they changed us to a new room... So the one critique is the closed reception during the night.

Lanta Pavilion Resort
We had a mixed experience at this hotel. Hotel service was very good, but the room we were given for our first night smelt awful from the toilet. We kept the bathroom door close to minimise it, but you had to hold your breath to use the toilet & we chose not to shower in there because although it looked good, newly renovated with clean tiles etc, the toilet smell was really off-putting. Second night the room was fine, no toilet smell & way less pokey room. Some of the rooms are close to the road which could be noisy, your experience at this hotel could be very different depending on what room you get. The beach was very close, nice chilled vibe in evening, food at their restaurant quite good too, you're near lots of other places to eat too, so other options available nearby on the beach. Recommend for families & couples but would ask for no toilet smells & not room near the road in making booking.

Very happy!
The hotel was over my expectations, very clean and comfortable houses close to the beach. AC, tv, fridge (with free water), nice bathroom and a small pool. The staff were vary friendly and helpful with taxi arrangements, motorcycle rental and helped us with booking of hotels around other Islands.. The location was in the middle of Lanta, at Klong Kong beach. The beach was pretty okey, abit rocky, very few people compared to long beach and a nice bar with some pillows to kick back with a beer at! For the money this hotel is top, ill highly recommend it!

Inte prisvärt
Läget nära stranden är bra, dock stenig beach vid lågvatten. Bungalow väldigt enkel, duschen under all kritik, inga sängbord, inga sänglampor, inget säkerhetsskåp. Frukost sämre än förväntat, mat och servis fylldes inte på trots att det efterfrågades. Frukostpersonal som tittade på telefoner i stället för att fylla på med mat eller duka av där gäster var färdiga. Vi bodde nära pool och restaurangområdet och stördes varje kväll av väldigt hög musik till långt efter midnatt.

Not the worst hotel, but not very good
It is a nice enough room. Very basic. Sadly it had one of those toilet-shower set up where you wet the whole room while showering . Electric water heater so low flow pressure. The worst thing was the dead bug in the bed! Gross! Big bug! Mosquitos all over and no isolation from the window (heat and noise) Nice beach, nice pool, breakfast enough.

Das letzte mal
Wir hatten bisher fünf verschiedene Bungalow Anlagen in Thailand und diese war die einzige schlechte!!!! Wir hatten ein ruhiges Deluxe zimmer gebucht, dieses war jedoch direkt an der Hauptstraße. Das Personal wirkt überfordert und unfreundlich. Umbuchung war nicht möglich. Das Personal beim Frühstück ist ebenso im vergleich zum restlichen thailand unfreundlich. Viele sachen waren aus und wurdem nicht ausgefüllt. Tassen, Teller usw waren immer Mangelware und mussten ebenfalls bestellt werden. Die Zimmer waren von der Ausstattung ok, jedoch die Sauberkeit lässt zu wünschen übrig. Es waren viele Spinnen und netzte im zimmer, die nicht beseitigt wurden. Das Klopapier wurde nicht ausgefüllt, die Handtücher nicht gewechselt. Wir werden definitiv nicht nochmal kommen.

Perushotelli perusjampalle, ihan ok. Lähellä 7/11 kauppa ym. ravintoloita. Uima-allas vähän pieni, meressä oli aika paljon kiviä ja kallioita ja uiminen laskuveden aikaan oli vaikeaa, nousuveden aikana oiken hyvä. Kaikki jutut toimi moitteetta. Hotellin rantabaarissa oli välillä musiikki liian kovalla iltaisin. Menisinkö uudelleen, ehkäpä, toisaalta alueella on paljon vastaavia hotelleja joista voinee saada samaa tasoa edullisemmin.
