The Malika Hotel - SHA Extra Plus

The hotel is located outside the Old Town, which makes the area very quiet and relaxing. The swimming pool is surprisingly large, clean, and a great place to unwind. The bed is comfortable, and the staff are friendly. Overall, it’s a pleasant place to relax and enjoy a peaceful atmosphere away from the busier tourist areas.

The furniture is a little old, and the towels could be newer. The hotel is a bit far from the centre on foot, and the 1,000 baht cash deposit could be communicated in advance. Also, the entrance shown on the map is closed, which can make it difficult for taxi drivers to find the hotel.

Really great place and location, especially if you need to catch the Ferry to the other Islands the next day.

The room was very large, very comfortable. The bathroom was large, with a good shower.

Not that we unliked it, but the area the hotel was out of town, so a walk is required to get into town. But we didn't have a problem with that.

Staff was helpful and positive, room was clean and comfy, maybe little bit old fashioned, but thats you expect for that price. Water in swimming pool was cold and refreshing. There were area with sand next to the pool with sunchairs. Staff gave water every day.

Location was little but confusing. Many taxi drivers came to back yard gates which were always closed, also “grab” couriers had hard time finding us, definitely needs some uprade on google maps. Ac was dripping and also sometimes didnt hold preset temperature. It became notably hotter and then it started to cool again so had to set it cooler then usual. Money safe was broken. One time, when we came back from the sea, there were no water in hotel whatsoever. Aparently they keep water in tanks, and the “water truck” was delayed. Had to wait more than hour to get shower.
