I was a bit skeptical about staying in this budget hotel, having seen words like "tired" "worn" and "bugs in lighting fixtures" in previous reviews. Than again, most reviews are quite dated, from the pre-COVID era. Seems the studios got overhauled, because in May '23 I found the rooms freshly painted, clean and well-kept, with new furniture and built-in LED lights. The lift is shiny, quiet and fast, the rooftop pool is enjoyable and the micro - lotus - lake is charming. The Burmese family taking care of the hotel are very friendly and helpful. Crystal brand drinking water came in glass bottles daily. The kitchen on the balcony is a nice addition, although I only managed to do some eggs with bacon once. FoodPanda smartphone App works great and has English interface - great for ordering both food and groceries to your doorstep. There are quite a few restaurants within 5 min walking in both directions. Istanbul I enjoyed most, Highway Curry Indian and French Natalie's are also worth recommending. Kataview Guesthouse down the road did an excellent job with my laundry, packed it so tight in a plastic bag, that I found extra space in my suitcase on the flight back.

Unfortunately, the Family Mart next door and the restaurant downstairs you see in the pictures no longer function, let's hope they will return with the tourists. One evening there was a problem with the water pumps and I ended up without tap water on the 5th floor. The hosts opened another studio on the second floor for me, which I used for toilet and shower only. The next morning the problem was fixed. My only remark would be about the towels. Spotlessly clean, but a little worn, might need replacing.

The rooftop bar with Pool. We even used this for our birthday celebration because we fell in love with the place last time we checked in here. The Manager K'Don is so accommodating and kind. The staff Souk, Kata and Meh ( I don't know if I heard the name correctly) are so helpful with our needs. Surely will book here again.

Full of positive comments for this place - so much so i have booked again for 4 weeks next time. The location is perfect, and i have stayed in Kata beach before. The staff are lovely, and extremely helpful. My room was a little tired but i noticed the rooms are being renovated. The street is lined with everything you need from coffee to thai food, massage and bbq. Its a nice walk to the beach and main busy area. extremely safe for lone female travellers. Absolutely loved it.

I don't understand why this beautiful hotel is not so popular. It's comfortable, renovated, nice pool and bar. People are amazing. I stayed here 3 times. The Kata beach is reachable by foot (15 minutes or so, I suggest using a hidden path on the right side of Boathouse hotel) On the street you will find a lot of domestic restaurants and bars. I suggest having a vending machine on the roof top to have easily beer and an American pool in the restaurant downstairs.

Maybe fixing the shower could add more comfort.

We've got a room with a mountains view. It was perfect, we could enjoy evening and mornings with beautiful view. It was quiet. There are cutlery, bowls and cups, so we could sometimes to stay at home and make food. Nice place on the roof top.

Pool was sandy, but in a few days they clean it.

Great location, amazing view. I very like my room. Nice renovated, have small kitchen. Breakfast is good. Team very friendly, good cleaning room, fresh bed linen and towels
