Phi Phi Chang Grand Resort

The only issue was that I couldn't get through to the front desk on the phone, and it took me a long time to find the hotel. Other than that, everything was great! The front desk even has a horse that's very friendly, and there are kittens too. It's also very close to the beach, just a short walk away.

Greetings. "Junior Suite"... a strong claim. The pool is awesome. The AC is blowing. WiFi is whining. TV is groaning. The cats are screaming. The tourists are sh***ing. Have a good day everyone.

A cozy hotel in a quiet and beautiful location. What I liked about room 216: + The room is a detached cottage with a staircase and a terrace. (There's also a block with regular rooms, not cottages.) + Spacious rooms with panoramic garden and mountain views. + Great location – away from noisy parties, yet convenient for reaching viewpoints and beaches. + Simple, homey atmosphere (quick check-in and check-out, they didn't even take a deposit). + Animals (a pony and numerous cats) lift your spirits and create a peaceful vibe. + Lots of nature, a garden, beautiful views. + I visited during the low season, and there were no other guests besides me. I barely saw the staff – a plus for introverts. The cons are minor (not critical for me) and fully compensated by the price and comfort of the place. - Many things are not well thought out (no power outlets in the bathroom) or on the table. The kettle has to be heated near the bed. - The room is a bit tired, with visible signs of clumsy renovations (broken tiles were just concreted over), but nevertheless, everything in the room works. - You might encounter occasional insects – I saw 1 ant, 1 cockroach (not critical, it's not a swarm of insects, and besides, we are in the tropics – life is everywhere here).

The hotel is a bit old and definitely needs renovation. Its location is slightly away from the hustle and bustle, but there are no steep climbs, which is a plus. A lovely pony named Tan lives on the premises and absolutely loves eating fruit.

First, the pros: – Convenient location – close to the ferry. – Friendly staff: they helped carry our luggage and allowed us to check in early. Now, the cons: – The hotel is clearly in need of renovation. – We were given a windowless room, despite windows being shown in the photos. It was very difficult to be in the room without natural light. – The air conditioning didn't work properly: it blew hot then cold air intermittently. – The bed was uncomfortable. – The spoons in the room were so old and tarnished that they were unpleasant to use – we didn't even bother making coffee. – The toilet seat was yellowed with age. We're not picky people, but unfortunately, we were disappointed this time.

We were here in February 2025, and there was a clean pool with sun loungers and amenities. We decided to stay at this hotel again this time, BUT! the pool was dirty, there were no sun loungers, so we just slept in the hotel. Pros: the price (inexpensive), there's a local pony and many cats.
