Top Lamai City Center Hotel Reviews

Conrad Koh Samui

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing stay staff are so helpful and friendly"

Chaweng Garden Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I chose this hotel because of its location on an amazing beach, and the fact I had read that is a more authentic and charming property than similar hotels in Chaweng. I did have minor worries about how planes flew overhead and it being right at the heard of the most lively part of Chaweng. However, as others have noted, the planes really aren't that bad, and you barely notice after a while. Also, it's a large proper and I really didn't hear any noise from any bars etc. If that's what you are after, it is right next to Ark Bar, which many people rate as the best on the island, and you only need alk a few steps along the beach to it. I got the cheapest room but it was spacious and had everything I needed. It was very close the restaurant, pool and best of all the beach. Most importantly for me, the sea is amazing for swimming. They do have red flags and warnings for jellyfish every day but I swam far out with no problems at all. There are jetskis in the sea but far out and quite far along the beach. The beach itself is gorgeous and most of the time you can get a lounger, though as ever, despite polite notices, people still 'reserve' some with a towel. The buffet breakfast is excellent and never crowded. They make your eggs, omelettes etc to order also. I've read complaints about price, value etc but I found it to be perfect. Chaweng is quite manic and as an area maybe I'd have preferred Lamia but Chaweng has the best beach and that's what I want."

Chaweng Regent Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"I have stayed at the Chaweng Regent periodically for 15–20 years. It has an excellent location, a lovely beach and pleasant pools, within easy walking distance of central Chaweng but away from the busiest area. However, service can feel geared towards high-volume package tourism, which is frustrating when paying the full room rate. On this visit, my room was not ready at the advertised check-in time. After I complained, I was given a very comfortable replacement that appeared to have been prepared for honeymoon guests. Having just unpacked, I was then asked to move to my original room. I inspected it but declined: it was in a poor location beside the children’s pool and noticeably inferior. A few days later, the hotel generously upgraded me to an excellent beachfront bungalow, which compensated for the inconvenience. Nevertheless, this was my second stay this year, and rooms within the same category have varied considerably in location, condition and quality. Despite paying the full rate, I was concerned that my original allocation appeared to be one of the least desirable rooms. The facilities and location remain excellent, and this quieter visit was more relaxing than my stay in March. However, the inconsistency between rooms would make me nervous about booking again."

Centara Life Lamai Resort Samui

8/10 Good

"Friendly Staff and Excellent Location, With a Few Areas for Improvement I stayed at Centara Life Lamai Resort Samui and found the staff to be extremely friendly, kind, and helpful. Whenever I had an issue, they genuinely did their best to address it, and I appreciated how accommodating they were throughout my stay. The location is one of the hotel’s biggest strengths. It’s only about a two-minute walk to Lamai Beach and right in the middle of the area, with plenty of restaurants, shopping, and nightlife within easy walking distance. The rooms were also very spacious and comfortable, which was a definite plus. There are a few things I think could be improved. I would suggest providing small washcloths in the bathrooms and having security available both during the day and at night. The gym could also use an upgrade, although I really appreciated that the staff provided me with a new yoga mat when I needed one. The biggest issue for me was the nighttime noise. Because this is a smaller hotel located close to the street and nightlife, there was significant noise during my stay, generally from around 10:30 p.m. until 2:30 a.m. I was able to discuss and resolve my concerns with the manager, who was very kind and professional, but light sleepers should definitely keep the location and potential noise in mind when booking. Overall, the staff really helped make the experience a positive one. The hotel has a fantastic location for enjoying Lamai Beach and everything the surr"
