Pranee Amata

Okolica spokojna, obsługa pomocna, sam pokój zadbany.

Recently Stayed here at Pranee Amata Hotel for almost 1 week whilst travelling round Thailand , read mixed reviews online but decided to book, through “***********” app as looked alright in the pictures. I arrived at the hotel and checked in at reception, staff seemed very pleasant but hotel was very quiet, was shown to my room 415, which was not in the main hotel block, but a short walk from the hotel in a separate block overlooking the hotel. The entrance to the block was dirty, messy and was guarded by two dogs who were not always friendly, especially of an evening. Room was very basic, TV didn’t have a signal and shower was cold most days but the room did come with Air Con and private balcony. Second day here I walked to the pool to find it shut, all doors leading to the pool were padlocked, so I went to reception and asked if the pool would be open for the upcoming days of my stay, but was told it would remain shut until the hotel had more guests, to warrant opening it. Breakfast was included with my stay, but unfortunately most mornings I could not find anyone or any food available in the hotel. The cafe advertised by reception was always shut. I did ask at reception, to be told that they did not have enough staff to open it and the hotel only had a 14% occupancy, so would remain closed. Hotel staff did manage to clean my room and leave me fresh towels and bedding, so at least this was something. But quite honestly, this hotel seems to be suffering after the covid pandemic, with staff shortages and the owners trying to cut costs where they are able to. I eventually cut my trip short on Koh Tao and checked out early. This hotel is not as described in my opinion, but if your looking for a budget stay, then this would be ideal. Ended up moving across the road to “Sairee Hut” and this was a much better standard with breakfast and a pool that was always open lol

Perfect for our stay. Close to the main area but a bit back so lovely and quiet. Nice big room, plenty of seating. Nice pool, sometimes had a dive school but they only used one half of the pool leaving the other half. Staff very friendly. Not 5* but it's not 5* prices, great value for Koh Tao. We stayed 12 nights and were very happy.

We have visited Koh Tao many times and have stayed at Pranee Amata for the last 7 visits as we have found it to be the most convenient hotel for Sarrie beach, as its quieter than the ones that are on the beach but still close to the action, they have their own swimming pool which is lovely, the rooms are cleaned daily, the staff are helpful and friendly, a very good for value hotel.

Amazing staff !! Staff made this place worth it. Very kind and so helpful. They arranged the scooter from the hotel for us. We had a 7am ferry and with the front desk having limited hours it was not a problem, someone was able to help us check out and return our scooter at 6am. Although I recommend arranging those things the night before if you need to leave early. Central location, quiet away from the noise. Beds were hard but everything else amazing
