Review of The Lapa Hotel
2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed May 2, 2012
We went there with 5 adults and 1 child staying at Duplex. We booked it directly to the hotel. This is the forth times we came to this place. We used to love it so much but things has changed here. Staffs, especially receptionists and waiting staffs in the restaurants, are terrible. The receptionist named Thanawat Muenming gave us the most uncomfortable moment since we arrived. He should not be working in a service industry if he has no service mind. The cost per night is THB9,000, normally THB12,000, which is the hotel promotion. When we checked-in, we asked Thanawat for the Duplex2 where we stayed everytime but he said another guest already booked that room and we were unable to choose because we paid it cheaper. And Thanawat insisted that we have to pay 1,000 for the extra bed for the 5th person, we had no problem and paid for it. The next day when the guests in Duplex2 checked-in, we happened to talk to them and found out that they never requested for any specific room and there are total 10 guests staying in Duplex2 without having to pay for extra person charges. We don't mind paying but staff should treat everyone equally. Yes we paid cheaper because it was the hotel's promotion, not that we begged for the cheaper ones.

One last thing, the pool was very dirty and the library was also very dusty. If they want to charge the room this expensive, they should maintain the quality and service at acceptable level.

There're hundred of hotels in Hua Hin, we recommend you to try out other places if you do not want them to ruin your holidays.

If you want to stay at Huahin to relax and isolate yourself from crowd, LAPA is one of good choice. Hotel provide you any facilities you need, swimming pool, internet access, room style, and staff friendly.

The price is very reasonable compare with another hotel at Huahin

Recommend.

The Lapa is a very good hotel in Hua Hin. For the price you get great service, an excellent room, filling breakfast, refreshing pool and a lot of exercise walking to the beach. The hotel is on the wrong side of the main road in Hua Hin and requires you to play frogger each day to get to the beach side of the road. It is also a far distance from the night market and downtown Hua Hin. I would reccomend renting a motorbike if you decide to stay at The Lapa to get around more conveniently.
...oh and if you want to change any part of your reservation once you get there, don't bother, the staff speak barely enough English to frustrate the heck out of you!

Stayed 10 days at The Lapa and experienced a nice athmosphere, execellent service and good cleaning in both rooms and poolarea.
The Tuktukservice was also good - as they transported us for free into citycenter at any time.
We had a room with poolaccess - wich was wonderful.
