4 Stars Hotels in Chanthaburi Province, Thailand

Convenient location, easy travel, comfortable rooms, simple but chic decorations. There is no refrigerator in the room. The bathroom is not very clean. Maybe because the floor is black. It's a clear stain. Cleaning is not as good as it should be. Drinks are always available. There is a co-working space. The breakfast is good and has a lot of variety.

This hotel was very good, nice room with balcony looking out to the sea, good staff and great breakfast buffet, alas, no bacon. Good food at the beach front restaurant. We stayed in one of the front buildings near the pool, modern and clean, most rooms have adjoining rooms with two doors, this can be a pain with kids in the next room opening and closing the door. Water pressure was not great. The beach area surrounding the resort was the biggest let down, in all my travels around Thailand's coastal areas, Chaolao Beach area was the trashiest and dirtiest beach I have seen. If your expecting pristine beaches with palm trees swaying in the breeze, you will be very disappointed. I would recommend this hotel for a short break, however, not for the beach.

Excellent resort. My wife and I rented a deluxe room for the king size bed for several nights while visiting, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Right by the beach, they have many units privately tucked away, and our “house” came with a cozy porch that we used to soak up the sun and get some fresh air. Beachside hideaway. There’s a pool and bar and even the theme is very cool, you can swim in it. Delicious breakfast, and top notch attentive staff - we called front desk for help with our bags and the guy was in front on a golf cart in seconds. Even from the beginning the GM Pom helped arrange for transportation from Bangkok and answered every question we had. Thank you and your world class team.

The hotel is far away from the central, so it is very suited for family travel or ⛳ golf players. Due to this location, if you want to eat some unique fruit or snack you should prepare it first. But the staff of the restaurant is helpful, I buy one bottle of wine when I finish my dinner he borrows me one glass. Enjoy your trip with the moment.

We stopped here for one night with a group of friends on the way to one of the local islands. On the positive side, service was excellent. There is lots of parking. The resort has a very large pool and fitness center. The gardens are beautiful. The decor is of an older, classic style but the property is clean and nicely maintained. They have some special function rooms for large gatherings but we did not see inside them. Our standard room was spacious and clean with a wood floor and a lovely large balcony overlooking the gardens. A large couch and coffee table faced the TV, and there was a work desk and lounging chair situated near the balcony sliding doors. The king bed mattrass was hard as is the rule in Asia. There was an in-room coffee-maker and fridge. Air con worked well and there was an extra large portable floor fan which was handy so that you did not need to have air con on alll the time. Bathroom was quite small but the shower was spacious and had great pressure. Our dinner experience in the in-house restaurant was excellent - menu is extensive, food was delivered quickly and it was very tasty. I appreciated the great vegetarian menu and found the noodle wrapped herb rolls with green sauce particularly tasty. There was a large bar separate from the restaurant but we did not try it. On the negative side, internet was extremely slow and spotty - which made staying in touch with work difficult for us. There was no safe in the room. There are no elevators and this makes it a challenge to get to your room if you are on the second or third floor. Thankfully it was not very busy and the bell staff took care of moving our luggage to the room quickly. In general there are a lot of stairs to navigate so if one is older or has limited mobility this can be a problem. Breakfast was free but it was cold and unappetizing. This could have been due to a power outage that hit the area due a bad thunderstorm, but still, they should not be serving cold food that should be hot. All in all it was still a pleasant stay. But the internet was the dealbreaker for us - if they fix it, we would consider staying here again.

For many years, we have always been happy to finish our 3-month Thai tour to this hotel that is very quiet on the river. The rooms are comfortable and clean, breakfast is mainly oriented to Thai but it is in Thailand and not in Europe. The only negative are the cold eggs, also the prepared meals are not warm but good. Unfortunately, it is not understandable in the restaurant with the English knowledge that you don't want to have the fresh-maked mirror swept on both sides, but that was almost every hotel outside the tourist areas. We simply don't understand why young people don't speak a word English when it is allegedly learned in schools.

My friends and I visited Baan Rim Ao Resort in August 2019. Baan Rim Ao Resort is a bayside resort located near the Gulf of Thailand and many tourist attractions in Chanthaburi like Old Town Chantaboon Waterfront and The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. For the transportation to the resort, since my friends and I couldn't drive. We took a public transportation to Chanthaburi Bus Terminal. Then, we asked the resort to come pick us up. When we arrived at the resort, we were stunned by the beautiful scenery and the beautiful decoration. Moreover, the sound of the waterfall near the reception made us feel relaxed and so ready for a vacation that we longed for. The hotel's decoration is very simple but stunning. The wall has the quote about vacation painted on it, for example, 'travel more, worry less'. The room was amazing as well. The resort provided everything you wanted such as the fridge, the hairdryer, some snacks, some bottle of water, and television. The bathroom is very clean and quite big as well. The scenery from the room is stunning. We can see the pond of water lilies and the resort's garden which made us feel very relaxed and close to the nature and the swimming pool. The garden has so many place to take a picture and since it is near the bay, it is very windy too! But again, stunning view. The food is quite nice since the resort also has a restaurant called Bang Manao within the resort. Our first dinner there was remarkable. Breakfast was also provided. The resort had variety of food from sticky rice with a grilled pork to a cereal and a salad. Everything was yummy too, impressive! The resort also provided Wi-Fi to the guests. For us, the internet connection was quite good and we didn't have any problem using it. They also had bicycle rental service for the guests who wants to ride a bicycle around the area. We rode a bicycle to King Taksin The Great Shipyard which located very near the resort. Apart from that, thing that impressed us the most was the resort's staffs. The resort's staffs were very nice and friendly to us. We had a nice chat with P'Amm who was at the reception. The other staffs were friendly as well. They took care of us when we asked for a bicycle and since we couldn't drive, they drove us to the tourist attraction that we wanted to go before we went back to Bangkok. I would like to say again that they took care of the guests very well and you won't be disappointed. All in all, this was one of the most enjoyable trip that I had. Even though the resort located a bit far from the city, it was quiet and peaceful and worth every penny. Nice decoration, nice food, and the staffs were very nice too! If you want a nice and peaceful experience when you visit Chanthaburi, Baan Rim Ao resort is a place for you!

My wife and I stayed 3 nights from December 30th. Positives first, we had a pool access room which was great, the pool was very good and the resort generally good. Nice beach which they appear to clean which should be mandatory for all beach hotels, but so few actually do. The negatives are all food, beverage and service related. Breakfast generally was very poor, my omelette on the first day was cooked by a girl who was clearly being taught on the job, it was awful. On NY day we received a call in the room saying breakfast was extended from 9.30 until 10 am, we got there at 9.35 and both the Omelette station (yes i was prepared to try again) and Fried Egg stations were closed so we could not get either. I was offered 2 fried eggs both of which were stone cold. On our first night i bought their last bottle of a particularly good Red wine (THB2100) we wanted on NY Eve to go with a Steak we had seen on the menu. On NY Eve at 7.30 pm the wine came to the table to breath and we shortly afterwards tried to order, Starting with the Steak, this was sold out, we then tried to order 4 other items which would go with the wine, non of which they had. We ended up with a Chicken dish which neither paired well with the wine or tasted nice. Whilst there were some senior staff, many were no more than children, and whilst polite, they had no idea of service. Trying to order a vodka and Coke was a particularly interesting experience. No Gin and Tonic and only 2 Beers to choose from. I place no blame on the young staff, the blame is entirely aimed at the management and whoever is responsible for teaching them, or not in this case. Yes it was New Year and yes it was busy but that is no excuse whatsoever, this wasn't the first NY Eve the resort has had. To add insult to injury on checkout they charged me THB 120 for a glass they say was missing from the room. We never used the glasses the entire stay, so it was clearly missing to start with, i had no appetite to argue so just paid it and left. So many good hotel restaurants along this beach such as Taosong Beach, so will not be visiting here again.

A little short on upkeep for this property. Stayed one night after the long drive from Bangkok. In the morning the entire front desk staff said we had a flat tire. They immediately called a repair shop and told us the fix would be 600 Baht!. The truck came immediately and returned with the repaired tire. Apparently this is an outrageous price and we got suspicious. We asked the staff nonchalantly if this happened often and some blurted out “yes”. We were scammed.

The bedroom is very spacious. There are many power sockets, maybe the head of the bed, the counter under the TV. The bathroom is spacious, clean, strong water, divided into dry zones, good wet zone, a lot of space to put things. Breakfast has a lot to choose from, delicious, especially the Liang pork noodle. Don't miss it 😆😆😆 Dinner is a la carte, it should be ordered in advance, delicious, large quantity, the price may be a bit more expensive than outside. Swimming pool, good view, good morning weather, come out to play in the water, very chill.

Great location, beautiful and clean hotel. After a long day visiting the city and surrounding areas it's an oasis. Simple but delicious breakfast. The staff don't speak much engbit they are friendly and helpful. Quite for a good night sleep. Near main attraction, markets, church, water front old Town, walking distance front bus station from and to koh Chang or Bangkok.

The hotel is in a good location, very close to the city center, and convenient for visiting attractions. It also comes with breakfast. It is cost-effective and suitable for family travel and business trips, especially during the peak fruit season.

This hotel was very good, nice room with balcony looking out to the sea, good staff and great breakfast buffet, alas, no bacon. Good food at the beach front restaurant.

If you want a Holiday Inn experience, this hotel may not work! If you want a traditional Thailand experience, this is the best place. The rooms are air-conditioned, beds are made every day, pillows are great, washroom and shower are outside but privately enclosed. It's very important to have shaded areas to recline and enjoy the ocean view. Many hotels lack shade, but Chivaree is great. The pool is ocean front, the beach is beyond excellent. Restaurant has the best cook on Chao Lao. Breakfasts are excellent but don't expect European sausages! Staff are kind and very accommodating. I will only stay at Chivaree and return yearly, sometimes for a month or more.

Spacious, comfortable, there are options for both rooms and bungalows as you like. The price depends on accommodation, good service, polite staff, delicious food, can stay from couples to seminars. In front of the accommodation there is a shrine of King Taksin to pay homage to the prosperity. As for the way to ask Aigu
