Absolutely Incredible Stay – 5 Stars! Our experience at The Culture on Koh Samui was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality that made us feel instantly at home. The hotel itself is stunning – beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and offering a perfect balance of comfort and style. The facilities were top-notch, from the relaxing pool area to the well-equipped amenities that made every moment enjoyable. But what truly sets this place apart is the incredible staff. Every single team member went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. If you’re looking for a welcoming, beautifully maintained hotel with outstanding service, The Culture is the perfect choice.

U Samui is a clean, modern hotel for people who are interested in a chill, relaxing holiday. Everything is really clean and the staff are exceptional. It is directly opposite a supermarket, motorbikes rental and a few street food stalls, and it is only 10 min by car from the airport.

Not that it bothered us, but planes fly over directly over the hotel when landing/taking off, so it might be a bit loud. On Thursday evening, the beer bar across the street was blasting really loud music, but they stopped at midnight sharp - not that this is the hotel’s fault, but if you are a light sleeper, make sure to bring earplugs.

We really enjoyed our stay at U Samui. At this price point, this is one of the better Hotels in Ko Samui. The beachfront sitting area was brilliant - we were there every evening. It was really cool seeing airplanes land at the nearby airport. The hotel has almost all the facilities one can think of (gym, swimming pool, concierge, restaurant etc).- really good!

The area has a little problem with mosquitoes. I understand, it is a tropical island, there is bound to be insects. However, when we checked-in, there were quite a few in our room. The gym area also had mosquitoes - if the staff takes care of this, this hotel would get even better. The room we got looked in to the neighbor's house. Pro-Tip : make sure you book a room in the block which directly overlooks the sea/swimming pool area.

Great beach out back. quiet. empty. gorgeous. Comfortable beds great breakfast gym open 24 hrs

Its on the main road out front which is great as its near a lot of stuff but not as secluded as it may seem by the pics. was great to have laundry and 7/11 right across the street though

Beach and coconut trees are incredible, great food quality at hotel restaurant, good room equipped with everything we needed

Music from the near hotel, Bugs in the room, expensive food in hotel restaurant

Had a fantastic stay with my wife, celebrating our anniversary with The Culture. Took a direct flight from Singapore with Scoot and just 10minutes drive away from the airport, and perfect for aviation sightseeing of planes coming in to land, or takeoff. The amazing service staff at reception, restaurant and all were really warm and friendly. Checking in and out were seemless. What we loved about the hotel was our villa with beachfront access and private pool. It was comfortable, clean and quiet. Perfect place to relax and enjoy. We also enjoyed the daily breakfast which had decent selection from both western and asian/thai cuisines. Happy to have my bacon, hashbrown and sausages every morning with iced coffee and eggs. Of the many things we did such as a Thai cooking class and watching a fireshow on the beach within the hotels property, our favourite activity was the private dining on the beach where we had a splendid surf and turf bbq feast, which overlooked the beach and captured the most beautiful sunset. Tee and the ladies from the restaurant were great and their service made our happy hour cocktail visits that much sweeter. The gym was simple and easy to access as we managed to squeeze some time in for a quick workout. We even did an evening yoga session with Anne, a professional instructor who catered to us beginners. There are also many good (clean) massage outlets and nail saloons outside along the same street. The same stretch you can find amazing local thai food eateries. You can also get pizza or macdonalds next door or even get late night snacks from the 7-11 across the street. There's even, Majesty Tailor a 10minute walk away to get your suits done. We also did make a short visit to the fisherman's village night market to have a seafood dinner and our favourite mango sticky rice, along with other local delights. Overall stay was perfect and we can't wait to go back again in the near future.

Nothing, other than the depressing feeling of needing to check out from a fantastic holiday and go back home to reality. If it's too much to ask, breakfast could have abit more of wider selection or variety, but understand it could be due to the smaller capacity the Culture caters to.

We were upgraded and given a sea view room - thanks for that. The employees are very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast is very tasty and has a great selection. The beach isn't the prettiest (small harbor), but it was still ok. The pool and the loungers are very stylishly furnished. The hotel offers direct motorbike rentals, which is very convenient and next door it has a self-laundry (Otteri Wash & Dry) which is very convenient.

In the middle of the night there is a strong odor coming from the sewers, this can be uncomfortable depending on sitting outside.

The hotel is so nice, the rooms are gorgeous and fairly modern - we got upgraded to the sea view room and it was beautiful. The hotel itself is not too big so it isn't too crowded. Breakfast was yum

People leave their towels on the sun loungers and hog it for the whole day while they are not there - should be monitored by staff. They say 24 hour use of the room (check out when you check in) but they were calling us multiple times trying to get us to leave earlier which is not right

I loved the place! It was convenient for everything & anything you need is right there. It’s about a 10 min walk from the Big Bhudda

The staff could clean better. Under my bed was disgusting. They’re also not very accommodating at breakfast. They’ll literally stare at you when asking to bring something. The food options are great though. They say there’s no check out time & you have the room for 24 hours of all the days you book but this isn’t true. They rushed us out of our rooms

Absolutely fabulous stay. We were in the lower level pool villa with beachfront access. Absolutely perfect to have a small pool to yourself. Even though it is a public beach, it is a quiet part of the island so you essentially have it to yourself. Also a cute swing was attached to a palm tree in front of the villa. The room itself is lovely with a Queen bed, TV with YouTube, lovely bamboo and wooden furniture and a clean modern bathroom. Room service was brilliant and they have an app covering your every need. However even if you are in one of the main hotel rooms, those rooms also looked nice and the hotel does not feel too busy. You can always get a sun lounger and the main infinity pool is empty. We drove a car there and there is limited parking space but also lots of space on the road if required. The highlight was the lovely security guard who helps you park and helps you cross the road. The breakfast was also brilliant with a good range of Western and Eastern cuisine. The location is also brilliant. There are nice small restaurants right near the Property but it is not rowdy at all at night. Also massage parlours and small shops nearby, including a 24 hours 7-Eleven which was very handy. It is also only 5 minutes drive from the airport which some people may not like but the planes are very infrequent. You are also 10 mins walk from The Big Buddha. You are also close to Fisherman’s Village and a lot of the water excursions. Highly recommended.

N/A - it was perfect
