Great place to relax at the pool and pool bar and have dinner at one of the restaurants all very good
The staff is very very friendly and helpful (especially Noey, Gift, Nid and NOK).

Also it appeared to not be very handicapped friendly.

The entire staff was wonderful, friendly and helpful!

From the super friendly & helpful front office staff like Mr. Khushi to the 5* food & service at every restaurant in the property, i couldn't really find any obvious flaws.

Total value for money destination .Lots of natural beauty to immerse into and makes oneself forget the stress and hurly burly of daily life.Once here you can just relax and unwind and the friendly staff is there to take care of your every need.6 to 8 min by car/tuk tuk to  night street market and Clock tower.Shuttle available at the property at convenient timings with drop back too.A must visit property when you are planning a vacation to this lovely  beach destination

ฺI loved those days since the staffs were very much friendly and helpful, as well as the hotel surroundings were well-designed and practicality.

All of the breakfast staff were lovely very helpful friendly and worked hard.

Topnotch service from arrival to departure, staff were friendly and extra mind.

Staff was very cooperative and friendly .

The lush tropical setting and gardens are stunning and all of the staff are a delight with the service never less than friendly, helpful and efficient.

Khun Alex (If I'm not wrong, was many months ago) is very assistive and friendly too.

The Anantara team were all very friendly and helpful.

Friendly service all around, We will coima again.

Great service, friendly smiles and excellent breakfast.

- friendly staff (but that you will find everywhere)
- good breakfast: egg station, noodle soup station, salads, fruits, baked items, Thai and international dishes.

I ate at the expensive restaurant at the Reception area to get the quality of meat I prefer

The prices for food are outrageous if you consider the quality.

Secondly the price of drinks is extortionate and they do not put full price on menu

Apart from the crazy prices for eating and drinking in the hotel, and I mean crazy, I cannot fault this hotel.

Food was poor, cold pizza and pasta and a price of 300 Bart would be too much.

The restaurant was expensive - Thailand generally is more expensive now for us Brits and we didn't get change from £40 and I eat very bascially ( vegan).

Prices in restaurants and wellness are too high.

However restaurants for dinner expensive for food and drink by Thai standards.

Only draw back would be the pricing of food and beverages.

The service is slow and not what I am used to at a Premium Hotel (e.g.

All good with exception of beach bar, whereby the service is either non existent or appalling slow.

but was also very slow on service recovery, something for the management to review.

The only negative I can find to say is that at times breakfast service could be quite slow;

Thank you for the great hospitality of staff especially Mr. Alex

If you don’t want to eat at the hotel you will need to book the shuttle bus at reception as it is only a mini bus it fills up quickly 
It is a fantastic hotel with lovely staff and I would recommend it as a quiet oasis in a big city.

The wiliness of the all the staff was excellent.

Breakfast is amazing and the staff are all great.

but most helpful were Noëy (Khushi, breakfast, we miss her already) and - of course- Alex ( knows a lot about Thailand, possibilities for trips, is a real entertainer and a very pretty person).

Staff v good, polite and helpful (eg arranging trips).

Anantara Hua Hin is a beautiful resort with tropical vibe …it is situated at the starting of Hua Hin town with Market village mall and  Bluport mall 10 and 15 mins by taxi (200 bhats one way)and We stayed in a sea view suite.The room was well appointed and was spacious with the sea a stone throw away ….The staff is very humble and efficient.Overall a good property to stay in .

What made this holiday was the amazing staff and service we received from everybody at the Anantara.

The staff gave me the apologies and I hope it won’t happen again.

The courteous staff, the clean rooms with aromatic aromas, the greatest breakfast in Hua Hin, and the peaceful beach haven't changed.

The staff is very kind, Khun Nid, Khun Nok, Khun Gift and Khun Choeychoey them may suggest good cocktails.

Anantara Hua Hin Resort

restaurant price

slow

It was because they couldn't charge us separately for the drinks.

A rat in the room, forced us to move from 206 to 133 receiving a  minor upgrade while still being charged 3K Thai baht for a loose mattress and a kids breakfast.

but they didn’t charge us for it in the end so it was quite alright.

But getting dropped off is fine (movenpick to airport only cost 90baht on grab) which we felt felt ripped off as airport taxi charges us 200baht.

Couple of very minor gripes; charged for bottle of water in the restaurant that are free to all rooms on demand, and wifi in the beach / bar area a bit patchy.

but if you wanted it cold, they charge you. Hmmmm.

We attempted even to negotiate with to hotel to charge us only 1 week and we would book another resort

THE RESORT WILL CHARGE YOU 10 TO 15 dollars more for everything and won't offer the authentic experience.

My SD card was full of photos without visiting many places in Hua Hin.

2) emergency checkout because my grandma passed away and hotel insisted on charging us for the remaining two nights we'd booked.

DO NOTE THAT FULL PAYMENT IS TO BE MADE VIA CREDIT CARD, and as this hotel is a not managed by a large hotel chain, they are inflexible with change of date.

but DO NOTE that they charge your card for full stay BEFORE you even arrive.

Villa has living area with day bed (comfortable enough to use as a bed - bedding provided if you pay the additional person charge of 2,500 Baht/night), flatscreen TV, fridge, tea/coffee making, air con, doors to pool patio, large double bed bedroom with aircon, doors to pool patio, ipod dock/CD player/radio, desk, chair, very large bathroom with sink area, clothes storage, safe, toilet, shower, large bathtub and also door to secluded outdoor shower in the front garden.

It is ridiculous what they charge for a very small salad, and for a drink, tree times what it cost  in the city!!

If you travel Asia, you know it can be a challenge to find a place that permits this without tacking on a ridiculous surcharge - Asara was eminently reasonable.

However, we found the food a little pedestrian and expensive (once you've added the surcharges for services and tax) and the wine outrageously expensive,

Once I opened the door, a very punching order hit my face.

But cannot get in because roomcard turn red at the door.

Wash room and toilet room, the doors cannot close properly , lighting in wash room also twinkle when turn on.

As mentioned in some of the other reviews there were a lot of mosquitoes so doors need to be kept shut.

I do not think that is a proper service or even a proper reason not to drop the guest at the villa’s door.

one note for travelers is to put on alot of mosquito spray during early morning and around sun set hours and keep door closed at all time.

but, here is the but, presented many obvious evidences of the poor focus for maintaining the villa condition at a premium level (walls paint, wood doors, toilets etc).

Good choice for rain shower in out door (there are bath & shower in room)

Bad;
1.pool in villa is too small, water not so clear, cool and not circulate. 2.

No knocking, no door bell, just open the gate and come right (see the photos of the layout and you will see what I mean).

but it was not too bad if you keep your doors closed.

But no they demanded cash at the door - this is a small detail that indicates a lack of professionalism for a 5 star hotel.

We hadn't even realised there were a set of doors behind the day bed where the tv is as the curtains were drawn - not good security!

Keep windows and door of your room closed after evening and you wont see any mosquitoes in your room.

We had dinner in the restaurant on the first night so didn't leave the resort and pretty much spent the whole of the next day in the room and the pool directly outside the door (and we didn't even have a pool villa!).

The bathroom was as big as the bedroom itself - there are in door shower, out door shower and bath . .

It shouldn't, as was happening, be used as a playground for kids.The noise little kids made whilst playing on the bar stools in the pool in the late afternoon whilst we and others were resting was so annoying we had to retreat inside and shut our door.

It is spacious, with an open closet and a rectangle bath tub embedded into the floors, a toilet area, shower and also a door leading to an outdoor shower area.

but got lucky it's really that the smell cleared out due to the windy.

They take extra special care due to covid, be sure to bring your vaccination record.

But this should be due to the COVID situation that we are all currently experiencing.

Due to wait for long time during check in as rooms were not ready on time and we book double bed

Grab 
- do note that due to taxi mafias, grab is not allowed to pick you from the airport.

As it was a bit too cold to swim due to the seasonal winds, it was apparent that the lack of alternative recreational offerings at the resort make it a bit dull.

This is our first pool villa - a wedding anniversary treat - and we haven't been able to sit out there due to being bitten - sometimes in the room too.

but loads of Mosquitos due to the standing water all over the place, perhaps in these areas management should put in guppies to eat the larvae??

In my opinion the resort is very far from the claimed 5 stars, I'd give 3 stars at most due to the above mentioned in combination with old bed linens (not exactly the 600 thread count you expect from a "5-star" establishment) and cheap amenities.

but they are bored because they have  very little to do , and in y opinion it is due to the high prices !!

And due to the poor knowledge of the English language they make errors.

Our last day was when  flights were being cancelled into Europe due to the "Ash Cloud".

Ha, I almost forgot the only downside: due to the large lagoons and little water plays around the resort there's plenty of moskitos going around.

- Receptionist who assisted us name Kartoon was very friendly.

In particularly, Khun Kig was outstandingly lively and friendly.

All staffs very friendly, Housekeeping and Receptionist very polite, hospitable, very helpful.

- Baan Dum Restaurant very nice, on the lawn right by the ocean (and cheaper than Kampu)

Probably the culprit is the front desk people, very friendly & nice,

Oh, forgot about the staffs there, they're all friendly and kind, especially when I was drinking by the pool bar with my friend - Bartender name ??

I have been stayed here for 3 days 2 nights with pool villa that's awesome place to visit in huahin room was pretty nice and quiet , Staffs were friendly, and around hotel looks good.

F&B staff very friendly details oriented K .

Staff are very friendly too, including the managers!

The hotel is friendly for family and kids.

WiFi is fast and good signal(usually other hotels are just okay) The hotel staffs are nice and friendly.

On our arrival we were greeted by really friendly and helpful staff and after a quick and easy check in we were taken to our private villa.

The staff is so friendly and helpful would like to mention Belle, Mint , Boom and Ple at kampu restaurant.

All the staff are very kind and friendly.

We were served by Jane and Aom, who were friendly, attentive, and helpful.

although given the impressive main pool the hotel has offered, the relatively small pool of the villa seems a bit undermined.

Just the pool is a bit too small for 4 ppl to swim.

although the pool itself is a tiny plunge pool and the tiles are worn.

when i saw the small pool inside our villa, i can't smile anymore on the first day of my vacation.

However, the pool was so small at about 2 x 2.5 meters.

Afterthat, I and my kids never play in the small pool in the room again.

Takes forever to get hot water in the shower, 2 bedroom pool villa's pool is so small.

The plunge pool is just that, a plunge pool and a little small for the price compared to other resorts,

Rear garden also with small pool, patio, loungers and table/chairs/parasol.

Swimming pool is a bit small compare to the size of the resort.

He was very polite, helpful and attentive.

She was such a true shining asset to the hotel!

Especially Mr. Top, polite and professional.

The GM Sven was great to deal with and wanting to help out as much as he could.

We choose asara villa huahin for a special birthday celebration and it was a perfect stay, special thanks for all of the professional staffs and exceptional service, mr top @ the fo / miss pare @ bandum restaurant / miss mint @ the beachclub / mr chart @ valet service,
Looking forward to our next stay already. :)

We had a small accident on poolsite and could see the first aid rescue of the very best trained staff - shows us the staff training and friendliness in general.

hotel staff told me to hold it couple hours to cool down

Everyone was very helpful and did their best to help.

(night shift during 8pm on 8/04  - i must be drunk so I forgot the name :P) - he was really great, made us the drink with our favorites.

Specially thank you to Khun Bow and her team at Front Desk to make our stay so memorable ❤️

And we will not forget to thanks to the house keeping team like K. Fon, K. Aor to keep clean the room for us.

but I prefer this location and I felt safer.We did go into Hua Hin one day to the beach and a couple of evenings for food and it took less than 10 mins in a taxi at 200 Thai baht.I preferred this location.It’s not directly on beach but is ocean front and I felt it was a very relaxing hotel and we had a loverly te.Thank you to all the staff that I had any dealings with and if my thoughts could be passed onto them especially Emily and Boom and the head chef for making our time wonderful.

Receptions works with unprofessional skill.

Special shout out to Khun Suthima at Front Office and Khun Atchara at Reservation as well, both of them handled my request in a very timely manner.

If you are going for a nice hotel for a good budget, going with Royal Pavilion would not be a bad choice.

If you are on a budget you can book here as it is very  comfortable.

There are so many eating places in Hua Hin and very cheap.

The buffet breakfast is well worth having as they have a big selection of dishes to choose from and for what you get to eat it is very cheap.

A regular free shuttle is available to several spots around, taxis or tuk tuks are cheap anyway.

I booked in a valuable and affordable price.

It's a decent hotel to chose for those on a budget.

I never expect such of the inexpensive room rate are included good buffet breakfast.

I would recommend this hotel, a very nice place to spend a few days, cheap as well, booked through agoda for about 1500 bahts a night.

but its good for a short stay and it is affordable (if you can find good rate).

The arrangement on the bus layout is 2 seats on right, separated by an aisle and 1 seat on the left.

The Hotel have free shuttle bus go to Pleanwan,Cicada Market,Train station,Beach.

Most other thing that you need are within walking distance e.g the bank ,24 hour shop and laundry
Transport is easy in the area with the green songthaew bus leaving from near the night market until 9pm and plenty of tuc tucs as well.

but the hotel provides a free shuttle bus.

Can reach most places on foot and the taxis and baht buses are in close proximity.

The hotel provides a free shuttle bus to four different locations.

The hotel provides free shuttle bus to Plearwan, Hua Hin beach, Cicada night market and Hua Hin railway station as shown in my picture without any fee.

but new and very clean, good location, not noisy from outside, nice rooftop restaurant, small swimming pool with good and clean towels, breakfast is good, shuttle bus to the beach and back (may be to other places, but we didn't use), open-air parking.

They provide shuttle bus to certain tourist place.

The hotel has free scheduled shuttle bus to and from the beach, plearwan, train and cicada market.

Has a bus shuttle service to nearby attractions. Con:

1.

Had shuttle bus to beach  which we used after breakfast .

Location of the hotel is great; nearby to the night market and shuttle bus to Bangkok.

The bus from Bangkok holds right outside the hotel.

Highly recommend as it's a very short  walking distance from Hua Hin seaside village, motorcycle hire and bus depots if traveling by bus from BKK.

Provides Shuttle bus service to train station , Hua Hin beach and Cicada Market .

Very clean hotel staff friendly and attentive good facilities with roof top bar great value for your money very convenient to night market and 5 minute courtesy bus to beach and town centre staff happy to help and knowledgeable about area suitable for all types of stay families and couples

hotel also runs a free shuttle bus to  the beach, Cicada market and night market.

And you can take the free shuttle bus to Cicada night market, railway station, beach and plearnwan.

but there was no wall socket for the microwave and coffeemaker in the "kitchen" area, and the air conditioning blew in our faces at night.

but no electrical power points for the kettle so you have to plug it in on the floor beneath the TV.

but there is no place to plug in the electric kettle- so you need to put it on the floor.

There are several power outlets in the room for charging various electrical gadgets.

There is 2 small suggestions  1.Longer cord for the kettle to eliminate having to boil kettle on the ground    2.

For shaving my husband had to make hot water in the electric kettle (which had to be placed on the floor because the cord was too short).

but the kettle is not positioned anywhere near a electric socket.

but no electrical outlet, so had to bring the hot water pot in the bathroom to plug in.

Almost all wall power socket in both rooms are either not working or having intermittent connections.

As mentioned in other reviews, the proximity of electricity sockets to furniture is an issue in as much as some bedside table lamps are for decoration only, and the kettle may have to be placed on the floor.

A few small oversights in the building stage, meant that the worktop area had no power socket,

2.The lobby have placing few laptop in common area, i never used

You walk in to a stunningly grand entrance which is kept immaculately by the friendly staff.

We stayed 3 nights and were made very comfortable by all of the staff, from the very friendly Manageress and the rest of her workers.

The staff here were all very friendly, helpful and cheerful.

Is there all we can need in the rooms and the staff were very friendly.

Very clean and comfortable hotel with nice rooms.Very friendly staff.Good aircon and good WiFi.Nice hot shower.Breakfast was included and it was ok with usual toast coffee tea freshly cooked eggs of your choice and plenty of Asian food.Small pool and roof top relaxing area.A steady 10 minute walk to the main bar area around the hilton.I would certainly stay there again.

All in all it is a basic hotel clean and friendly good staff.

We had book a hotel from 4 - 7/11, the stay in the Royal Pavilion was pleasant one it is clean and its also a short walking distance to the hua hin beach & hua hin night market, the staff on duty are very friendly.

If you like soup and noodles and rice you’ll be ok. Staff are friendly.

The staff were friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our 4 day stay at this hotel.

The staff are pretty friendly and helpful.

but hotel is clean and staff are very friendly.

The staffs were friendly and helpful with suggestions.

Friendly, helpful and professional staff, esp.

The noise outside the room from the inner hallways and above all I could here was people shouting moving things and banging.

Due to the tiled hallways, which looked like hospital floors, every noise echoed all the way along, whether it was guests talking, doors closing or footsteps.

The hallway has tile floors and walls that amplify and echo noise.

Also, the corridors were not lit up from morning till evening (they only switch on from evening till the next morning).

They talking, talking and talking loud endlessly and it echoed throughout the corridor and all around.

Only two minor problems were that the hotel only has one lift, which meant waiting a while sometimes, and the fact that the cleaning ladies were fairly noisy from about 8-9am, and the sound insulation from the room to the corridor is not good.

Family with baby was staying next door, and could hear him/her crying from the hallway when passing by the room,

though as I heard the teenage group's noise along the hallway.

Despite our high floor, the water was sufficiently hot and pressurised to take a bath.

Stayed in this hotel, everything is perfect in each aspects except for the instant water heater that is in my suite is not really working well, very low flow rate of hot water and the fruit flies staying only on the fruits on every breakfast buffet meal.

From there you can imagine how abysmal the hot food offerings were.

And the one of them with a bathtub did not have hot water.

(including instantly hot water for the shower).

Plastic flower arrangements, bed linen was patched, shower leaked to extent that little water came out of shower rose, no hot water at basin, bed was like sleeping on floor boards.

but again it's hard to skip the details that makes you feel bad like the fake blue leather couch, the tiny balcony with 2 AC motors blowing hot air on your face) bathroom - the pictures speaks for themselves.

Shower had a weird tap connected to the hot water system.

Room ok , hot water not functioning in bathroom- shower not draining.
