Best Hotels near Friendly Giants Krabi Elephant Riding Camp, Krabi

We loved our stay so much we extended by a few more days. The large bedroom had everything we needed with a great porch area with a hammock. The staff are friendly and helpful. There is even a small kitchen area which was great. Would recommend to anyone who wants a quiet comfortable place to stay.

Really quite nice, for the money, in a tourist hot spot. £30 a night, clean spacious AC room. Balcony with view of a roof (whaddya expect for £30 practically on the beach in Ao Nang?). Lifts work, staff are very smiley, rooms cleaned daily. Kettle, coffee, etc. There is a walkway past the (fairly grubby) pool straight down to the beach. The pool filter setup is broken so they have one massive machine by the poolside (think pump filter thing that would normally be hidden away) subtly covered with a plastic tarp. Great beach access for sure. It's a crying shame the bar/breakfast area isn't operating as a beach bar. It is ideally located. Post pandemic recovery one assumes so you can't grumble. Talking of which... What is with the glass wall dividing the toilet with the bedroom.!?!? When you have one ”in the departure lounge” the last person who wants to see the ensuing movement is your partner. Seriously.! They did have a blind you can pull down. Presumably an afterthought. Doesn't stop the sound of you dropping the kid off at the pool though.... Overall, for the money, rather happy.

Sea Seeker Krabi Resort is a great family-friendly hotel located on a quiet side street approximately 10-15 minutes walk from Ao Nang beach. We chose to stay in the Deluxe Corner Room with Sea View, which has a big balcony from which you can watch a nice sunset over the sea and also see the main cliff of Ao Nang. We also really liked the breakfast options available, and every guest is also offered a voucher for a free non-alcoholic welcome drink during their stay, which is a nice touch. The only real thing that could be improved are the room cleaning arrangements. Apparently we were told that our room is usually scheduled to be cleaned at 4 pm, which is different from almost all other hotels we stayed at. This time was somewhat inconvenient for us, as we usually return home from our day trips and want to relax in the room then. But once we informed the front desk, our room was cleaned earlier the next day, which we greatly appreciated. There were also no bathrobes or slippers in the room when we arrived, but once again this was quickly sorted out and we received these within a few minutes after informing the hotel staff. Overall we really enjoyed our stay at Sea Seeker Krabi resort and would recommend it.

Rested from 03.20.19 to 03.30.19 on Krabi at the Sunda Resort hotel, the HOTEL is GOOD, green, even very green, quiet, calm, birds are singing, 2a pools, WI-FI in all rooms and on the street, breakfasts are EXCELLENT! The hotel is worth its price!!! Worth taking! BUT, it’s a long walk to the beach, about 1.5, we rented a motorbike for the entire period for 250 baht per day. At the reception they always help with everything, including with the bike!!! So, you can decide everything at the reception! Very friendly and good hotel staff, except that the hotel is 1.5 km from the beach, EVERYTHING IS EXCELLENT! You take a motorbike, and you can go to all the beaches, we went everywhere, on different beaches. Eat: there is a special market for food (Food Court) or I don’t know what to call it, it’s open from 17 to 23 and they prepare a variety of delicious food, the prices are average, good and you can choose anything you want and delicious food, drink juices, ice cream, etc!!! Buy a local SIM card for the Internet at SevenEleven, or they will give you one at the airport for free!!! Krabi is not a party place!!!! NO clubs!!! If you want to party, this is definitely not the place for you! In the evening MOSQUITOES!!!

Located close to the beach. About 500m from the main beach attractions in Ao Nang. Neat. And clean rooms. Very friendly staff. The hotel has a great pool and good restaurant. The spa was unfortunately closed when we visited. The pool side bar and the lobby bar are good with live music every evening

We had previously booked this hotel for a 2020 visit before Covid ruined those plans, so we were looking forward to our eagerly awaited holiday in Thailand. We had decided to travel during the Songkran (Thai new year) festivities, which were unbelievable. So much fun! Our 13 year old daughter (can I say daughter nowadays!!!) had the best time of her life shooting water everywhere. The Thai people, always smiling, are simply amazing. Now, ok, this is a hotel review. We had booked a pool access room by the fantasy pool (the one with the slides). Simply, unless you like people clambering over YOUR small terrace, taking photos while stood on YOUR terrace, jumping in the pool from YOUR terrace, trying to get to their room next door across YOUR terrace, don’t waste your money. It was disgusting, utterly intrusive and bloody ignorant. There are no barriers (and there should be) between the rooms/terraces to prevent this. A joke! We had two sun loungers on the terrace (which people climbed over too) but they were in the shade all the time. Rooms 127 to 131 get no sun at this time of year, so again if you’re a sun worshipper don’t waste your money. The wifi is abysmal. It says somewhere in the room, don’t wait to get home to complain about something, ask the staff! We complained about the wifi almost every day until we gave up. They advertise (incorrectly) that there’s wifi available in all areas. A total lie! The only place you were guaranteed wifi was in the reception area. Or the Green Pepper restaurant across the road!!! I had to pay for 5G everyday to do some work for my business back home!!! And then I get charged for having my room an extra hour on checkout! So much for customer service. A recent reviewer said the breakfast was amazing. No, adequate is the word you’re looking for. It didn’t matter what time you visited, it was packed out, nowhere to sit, no cutlery, no plates, no cups, no food. Everyday we had to ask staff for this, that and the other to be replenished. There was just not enough staff. Apart from 5 behind reception!! On a plus, the room itself was fairly nice with a comfy bed. It could do with more drawer space and more hangers in the wardrobe. Oh and the plug didn’t work in the bathroom sink. On a plus plus, the bar staff at the fantasy pool bar were awesome. A special massive thank you to Soe who was brilliant. One final note, please Ananta Burin Manager/owner, please don’t reply to this review patronising me. This review is a true and honest review. There needs to be changes at this hotel before we ever return. Sorry Soe.

excellent hotel with good choice of breakfast - buffet style. staff at the egg station have excellent cooking skills, cooking 2 scramble eggs in one small fry pan ! free welcome drink was refreshing too. staffs were friendly and the amenities were awesome especially the top pool. amazing view of the cliff and sea. free cooking class on friday and saturday. it was a great experience trying out their local food. 3-5mins from hotel to the beach. many shops around the hotel. 7-11, subway,starbucks, watson

Wow, what an incredible experience! We absolutely loved this resort! The front desk staff were so kind and helpful. They helped us with setting up mopeds, ordering a taxi, transportation to the airport, and so much more. We went to Tiger Cave Temple, which is not too far away and is an incredible place that everyone must go to. It's a tough hike, but worth the views at the top. One day we did a luxury private long tail boat tour and wow, amazing! There's so much to do in the area. The resort was super clean and even better, you get the amazing jungle views. Hopefully one day we can make it back and we will make sure that we stay here again !!

We (3 non vegetarians and 3 vegetarians) loves the hotel breakfast. Breakfast provides are different every day but not all. The staff is nice and allows us to use the utensil and plates for outside food to eat at the breakfast area. This hotel has short walking distance to Andaman Cultural Centre and Maharaj morning market.

The staff were really friendly but unfortunately after waiting 3 hours to check in I found bed bugs in the bed. I had checked reviews to avoid any place with bed bugs and there was no mention of any on other reviews. I reported in to the receptionist and they changed my room right away and had a cleaner stripping the bed straight away. However there was then bed bugs in the 2nd room, to which I immediately showed the receptionist as she was still in my last room and she just flicked it off and said they will change the sheets. My concern was that if there are bed bugs in two of the rooms on the sheets then there will be more and they reside in the mattress and below the sheets too. I said I just cannot stay there as I do not want to get bites or for my things to become infested. The receptionist said sorry there are no refunds, I read at the desk that there were no refunds under any circumstances however I understand that for other reasons but this is unacceptable and this is a clear health issue and was completely out of my control. I am disappointed with the approach towards this and feel I should have received a refund as I was not there for even an hour. This would have been a lovely stay and the staff were so kind and did try to rectify the situation by giving me a new room immediately but unfortunately due to this issue I would not recommend staying here.
