This really is a 10/10 place. My husband and my favourite place we’ve stayed, this trip to Thailand. We’ve already decided we want to come back, with friends, next time.
We wanted a place to cut our drive to Bangkok and had no idea Sarat Thani and the surrounding area had so much to offer.
Mr. Pongsak, the owner, could not be more lovely. He is so thoughtful and invested in making sure everyone who stays has the best experience and shares his knowledge of the area and all the things there are to do and see.
We drove a rented car, and found it sooooo peaceful and relaxing to be there. And so close to get to town, markets and lots of yummy foods.
We cannot wait to share this gem with friends and try the other cabins. The pond with all its fish is a gorgeous water feature too.
They opened in 2025 and are building a third cabin. They are modern and still so charming and relaxing.
Cannot wait til we can return on our next trip.
My only concern is that it is such a great spot and is going to be so popular, we will need to book well in advance next time!
Thank you for everything. See you next time, Mr. Pongsak and family.

laosnewhorizonI had a good experience at this hotel. The accommodation was very good, bed a little hard but very clean, and the service was very good from check-in to check-out. The location is ideal, especially being so close to a Michelin-rated restaurant, which was a highlight of our trip. I would highly recommend it for a relaxing and high-quality stay. Close to the river and night market and bus services for onward journeys

Positive : Good location, clean room and size of the room is quite comfortable for family even though you booked standard room.
Negative:
1. I booked the room for 2 night but the keycard set for 1 night when I asked staff said its for safety reason. This is the first time I my life to hear this such a thing. They said even guest stay for 10 nights they have to extend key card everyday.
2. Staff at front desk didn't provide any information even for breakfast ticket they gave me just for 1 day. I cant be bothered to ask amd just wanted to leave this hotel.
3. There is no service mind at all for all apart from the Bellman who have outstanding service, this is similar comment I found from previous guest too.
4. I got a call twice after my first night stay , they told me the check out time today in 10 mins then I asked them to check they said sorry in theor system their colleagues mentioned for 1 night only. 20 mins later they called me on my mobile phone and said I have to check out in 15 mins. They make it worst !!!
5. Lastly the simple amenity such as hair dryer they charge 50 bath. Available at reception.
6. This hotel doesn't provide lunch or dinner service even though there is menu in the room. You cannot order.
Lastly, I will never come back again.

DeepgalaxyReview – CBD Hotel, Surat Thani
“In the center of Surat Thani, where crossroads pulse with traffic and neon flickers like tired stars, stands CBD Hotel—a place that waits for travelers who are always on their way somewhere else.
Around it, the city breathes commerce: food stalls, markets, bus stations. From here, you can walk to the Seatrans bus terminal, and soon after find yourself boarding a ferry to Koh Samui or Koh Phangan. You can wander to the agricultural market, where local trucks carry passengers to Phunphin railway station. Every path from this corner leads somewhere further, as if the city itself is designed for departures.
Parking, often a worry in the center of a restless town, is solved here. Behind the hotel, a wide lot waits—easy to enter, easy to leave, as if movement were always part of the plan.
The lobby never sleeps. Staff at the desk watch the night pass with quiet patience. A small elevator, unassuming, carries you to rooms that are wide and clean. At the entrance, a wardrobe stands for shirts, bags, forgotten stories.
The window is large—generous with light in the day, but not always generous with silence. If your room faces the street, the sound of passing cars may slip through. Yet by night, the city softens. The roads empty, and stillness returns, like an old friend.
The bathroom is spacious, the water strong and insistent. Not new, but cared for, like something that understands its role. The bed is soft, the air conditioner steady, the space around it wide enough that you never feel trapped.
This is a hotel for pauses, not destinations. For the traveler between islands, between parties, between versions of themselves. Affordable, reliable, unpretentious.
Sometimes, the most valuable comfort is not in what is offered, but in what is quietly promised.”

Guest UserBear and Bird Hotel: A Budget-Friendly Stay with Room for Improvement
The Bear and Bird Hotel in Surat Thani offers good value for money in a central yet quiet location. Many guests appreciate the spacious, clean rooms (especially the Japanese-style ones) and the nice pool. The staff are generally friendly and helpful, and free parking is a plus.
However, as a newly opened establishment, the hotel is still a work in progress. Some guests have noted musty smells in standard rooms and dated or problematic bathrooms. Despite these quirks, if you're looking for an affordable base in Surat Thani and can overlook some minor imperfections, the Bear and Bird Hotel could be a suitable choice.

A clean and tidy room although the bathroom facilities could have been better such as a shower curtain to stop the water splashing everywhere but otherwise very handy for a couple of local restaurants out front the swimming pool was great and the massage was excellent. Staff were always friendly and helpful, so other than the fact that it was a bit far out of town and there seem to be a slight dampness in the room due to the location next to the swimming pool, we think or down to the extractor fan in the bathroom not working.

laosnewhorizonA Fading Gem with a Fantastic Breakfast
The Wang Tai Hotel feels like a grand dame from a bygone era. Walking into the lobby, you can see it was once a truly luxurious place, and that sense of scale and history is still there. However, it's clear the hotel is in need of a bit of a makeover. While everything is clean, the decor and some furnishings feel a little tired and dated.
That minor point aside, our stay was very pleasant. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly, always going out of their way to assist us.
The breakfast, however, was a wonderful and unexpected highlight! Instead of a standard buffet, it's ordered a la carte from a menu. Don't let that worry you the range is huge, covering both Thai and Western options. Everything we ordered was freshly cooked and absolutely delicious. It felt more like a restaurant experience than a hotel breakfast.
The large swimming pool is a major plus – perfect for a refreshing dip and lounging in the sun. The location is also very good, making it a convenient base for exploring Surat Thani.
In summary, if you can look past the slightly worn edges, The Wang Tai Hotel offers incredible value, spearheaded by a stellar breakfast, great pool, and excellent service. A little refurbishment would easily make this a 5-star experience again.

BB live in Taiwan
The hotel is clean ~ the bathroom is also very large ~
Hot water and room temperature water on the first floor 🩷
There is an elevator 🛗 You can live here with the elderly!
There is a balcony in the room to dry clothes
Unfortunately, there is no hair dryer here 🥹
The air conditioner is new 🆕 very cool and comfortable
Next to the hotel is the river! But I think it is still a bit far from the night market.
It is much more convenient to drive 🚗 this time!
There is an island nearby to go for a walk, and it is lively nearby at night!
Overall quite satisfactory 👍🏻
