Resorts in Thailand

"I stayed at 5 different hotels and resorts in my first solo travel to Thailand.. 2 in Bangkok, 1 in Chiang Mai, and 2 in Ko Samui. I would only give one of these stays 5 stars and it is the Carlton. Not because it was anything extravagant or spectacular.. but because it consistently excelled in all areas I would consider worthy to give it 5 stars. Consistency is most important to me in awarding 5 stars while other properties may be more spectacle in 1-2 (Dusit Thani) areas but fall short in others. Location - good to everything but tucked away enough to feel like you got away from the overwhelming chaos Staff - very friendly Gym - smallish but one of the best out of the trip Pool - solid with attentive staff Rooftop - nice with a cozy feeling and good view Room - comfortable and quiet. The quietest out of all the hotels I stayed at but I had a room that was tucked away at the end of hallway."

"The hotel is clean and the staff provides good service. I recommend it. "

"Perfect location, amazing pool, solid gym. Main issues were the rooms aren’t blackout as the blinds don’t go all the way down and no face towels as standard and have to be requested. "

"Close to the malls and polite staffs"

"Breakfast was the highlight, everything else was decent."

"Clean, beautiful plenty to do around the property. The staff was so accommodating as well and the breakfast was delicious."

"Love the spa and shuttle is ideal"

"Amazing breakfast. Amazing staff. Beautiful views. Quiet but close to town center. "

"Fantastic large resort that offers variety and a sense of freedom. Easy to relax there, great place to do a lot or very little."
