Maybe it was the poor weather, maybe it is just us, and for sure it were our high expectations, fueled by their own website and some reviews: but we were very disappointed after our stay of 3 nights. It started on the 1st day; after staying in guest houses without pool, the kids were dying for a swim, but the pool was closed due too cleaning with, as appeared later, an overload of chlorine. With the exception of the manager and one male staff the rest of the crew was unattentive and sloppy. Most of them just hung out in front of the TV in the restaurant. On day 1 there was no sprite (but listed on the menu), no big deal if out of stock for one day, but on day 2,3 and 4 same thing, in spite of the 7-eleven close by. On day 2 no cocktails, as the maker was on leave that day...again no big deal, but for such a pretentious resort a laugh!
Family suite is nice for the parents, but the kids were put in a stuffy attic room without windows. So better to book 2 rooms.
Old Sukhitai is fantastic and the resort within an easy bike ride well located. So with some better management this is potentially a good place to go. But for now it does not deliver value for money.

We were looking forward to this hotel after reading glowing reports on various web sites. What a disappointment!

The use of the word resort is an exaggeration. It is a small hotel consisting of a number of separate buildings. It was raining when we arrived; there is no protection from the rain at the entrance and when crossing between buildings, worse the floor tiles in some places near the restaurant were slimy and very slippery. No attempt has been made for a long time to clear this; the cleaning staff were oblivious to this hazard. A number of guests slipped and could have injured themselves badly. Even in dry weather these tiles are slippery.

The complex is overgrown with vegetation and contains a number of ponds; consequently expect a high population of mosquitoes.

We had dinner in the restaurant on two occasions; we found the food to be passable, but somewhat expensive. Breakfast was a much poorer affair - big in quantity but not so good on quality.

The rooms are furnished in a rustic style. Consequently, the first room we were given on the street side (we had reserved a grand deluxe room) was a dark affair with dark furnishings and small windows. Worse the rooms was dusty (I hate dust and have an allergy). I suspect that they put us in a cheaper room. After complaining they put us in the suite. Their idea of an extra bed was a mattress on the floor. Granted, the sheets were clean, the aircon worked and we had wifi.

The desk staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant staff on the other hand were lacking in initiative and struggled to crack a smile.

There is a small pool which we did not use as we were out at the historic sites. You can rent a bike for 50 baht per day. Be advised that this is a heavy-weight one-speed affair.

I think the room rate is expensive for what you get.

The sole advantage of this hotel is its proximity to the old town and the historic park; one can walk there in around 10 - 15 minutes.
