3-Star Hotels in Koh Tao

I really liked the hotel. We rented a family apartment, unit 1. It had a living room with a bunk bed and a small kitchenette, plus one bedroom with a large bed. The staff were friendly, helped with our luggage, and let us check in earlier than scheduled. The rooms were clean, and water was replenished daily. There was air conditioning, and both hot and cold water. There was a TV, but the Wi-Fi was weak and sometimes cut out. The kitchen had a kettle, toaster, and stove. The hotel is situated a bit further inland on the island, nestled in a small wooded area. Insects were sometimes a bother. And sometimes at night and in the mornings, there would be noise – maybe birds, or squirrels, or some other unknown creature. A cat here, after receiving affection from our family, decided it would start visiting us for food. And I must say, it was persistent; it could sit by our door for days. One morning, I saw a scene: the cat was sitting next to the lower half of a squirrel, right by our door. Not such an innocent kitty after all! We couldn't hear any traffic. We rode scooters to the beach; walking wasn't an option. Within walking distance, there's a 7-Eleven, scooter rentals, local eateries, and laundromats. The pool was clean and pleasant, about 1.5 meters deep. The only thing we didn't like was the layout of the paths specifically leading to our bungalow. In my opinion, they were illogically designed; there were steps in some places where you could easily trip and fall, potentially needing help to get up if you were unlucky. My wife only ended up with scrapes on her knees. It would be more logical to have a direct path, but here you have to go around, doubling or even tripling the distance to and from the bungalow. But I guess some people might not mind it. Overall, I'd say we were happy with the place and enjoyed our stay. Thank you, I wish you good sales and satisfied guests!

Good service throughout our stay with staff being helpful and friendly. Has a nice pool area and loungers on beach front. In a good central location in Sairee area. The room we had was large and generally clean although does seem to have an issue with drain flies, despite trying to get rid of them each day there would be numerous more by the next day. Also be prepared for mosquitoes! Aside from this still recommend.

This hotel is located at the very end of Tao's busiest and liveliest street. The grounds are well-maintained, and the pool is deep and clean. They offer a free shuttle service to and from the pier. We stayed on the 3rd floor. The stairs are a bit steep. The room was small but cozy, with a balcony. Housekeeping came daily (they practically buried us in toilet paper!), and they brought fresh water every day too. The main issue with this hotel is the terrible acoustics in the hallway. Around 7 AM, when the cleaning staff arrive, they might place a dustpan or bucket on the floor in the hallway, but it sounds like they've put it right next to your bed, specifically at the head of it... And we were particularly 'lucky': we had a couple staying next door who enjoyed having drunken arguments...

We stayed in a triple room. It had everything we needed. Breakfast was included. While there wasn't a huge variety, you'd find something to eat (scrambled eggs, rice, meat, greens, fruit). The staff were friendly and ready to help if needed. The beach was nice. We went when the waves were high, so snorkeling wasn't really an option. There were small sharks swimming near the shore.

The exterior of the hotel is fab, right along a private beach with amazing views, sand and 3 pools, including a dive pool if you need. The restaurant is also pretty scenic and the food relatively affordable for a hotel restaurant. The on-site laundry service is quick and competitively priced. The room itself was a letdown, very dated, dark and not very clean. The bathroom in particular was an issue for me, the shower heads had rusted and not kept clean and the general state of the bathroom was dark and dirty along the walls, sink and floors. The bathroom was full of mosquitos because the shower allows standing water after you shower and doesn't drain, with no windows to open (easily). The bathroom handle was also faulty, but the staff were happy to repair it once notified. I also found a cockroach in the bathroom in the night - appreciate you can't control this, but it just added up to a wider picture with cleaning issues. Finally, the on site gym was unusable. They just need to give the rooms (and gym) a good refurb and refresh. Until then, if you have issues with cleanliness, I advise you not to stay here.

It is very difficult to evaluate the hotel as everything depends on the room you have chosen, there is construction on the territory and this concerns not only this hotel but the whole Siri Beach. We chose one of the decent options with a side view of the sea, this is building B, on the second floor the sea is slightly visible. On the first floor the rooms are dark because there is a lot of greenery around the room. There is a building under construction nearby, so it is noisy, pools are being dug in, there are rooms with a view of the garden, in fact, they are overlooking the building materials, and they are also very dark. Our room was large, bright and cozy, minus - there was no hot water, only cool, only a tropical shower, smelled terribly of a towel. We took water every day at the reception, which is located in the cafe. The location is good, in the evenings we did not hear noise from nearby cafes

I stayed in the garden view room for 10 days. There is a pretty good sea view through the trees, but you do have to climb up some fairly rickety stairs to get up there which won’t suit everyone. PD is only 10 minutes from the pier, but it’s a very hilly journey and it does feel a bit remote, although Chalok beach is a rugged 20 minute walk and has shops, banks, restaurants. The room did feel a bit overpriced as did the restaurant, but the food is all very decent. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and contributed to a very pleasant stay. Overall we had a very nice time but if I went back to Koh Tao I might have to stay somewhere more accessible, but if you want peace and quiet and you’re a confident bike rider or don’t mind a walk for getting around I would definitely recommend PD.

Lots of mixed reviews about this place. From bed bugs, to rude staff. We didn’t experience either bed bugs or rude staff but the hotel was a bit run down. The staff were quite friendly, loved our kids and their amazement at coconuts being everywhere. Breakfast buffet was a bit underwhelming but it got the job done. It wasn’t great fit vegetarians. The rooms were fine, a villa had 2 separate rooms so had privacy but was a bit inconvenient at times but it worked. We didn’t have bed bugs and we didn’t have geckos running in our room like other reviews. We probably wouldn’t stay here again but it was a good location and we got to go out best dive Center - La Bombona so that was a plus. Nice beach views and pool

I didn’t have particularly high expectations for this hotel after reading some other reviews which meant I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived. Staff were extremely helpful with booking issues and early check in. The room was much bigger than I expected with a fridge, microwave and utensils provided and would be suitable for people wanting to stay long term. Other people seem to have had issues with noise but honestly as someone whose has lived in cities before and went to uni the street noise was barely noticeable. The location is excellent right in the middle of the main streets with the beach, restaurants and bars all on your doorstep.

The bungalow for two people was spacious enough to fit two large suitcases. Inside, there's a fridge and air conditioning. It features a huge 200x200 bed and good quality pillows. The front desk staff were lovely and allowed us to check in earlier than scheduled. We rented a motorbike directly from the hotel for 250 baht per day. The set breakfasts, enjoyed with a view, were excellent and cost 200 baht. The hotel is situated on a hill, nestled in the jungle, perfect for those who enjoy the sounds of birds, cicadas, and frogs. There are small ants, but that's nature and didn't bother us much. The best part about this location is the stunning sea and mountain views! It feels like a village, surrounded by palm trees and flowers! It's a quick 5-minute motorbike ride downhill to the center. Overall, a wonderful room, location, and staff!
