The Imperial Boat House Beach Resort, Koh Samui, Suratthani 84320 - Review ...
I m afraid, out of the 5 hotels we selected,on our 4th trip, Imperial does come last!! The grading 3 should not say value for money -that is very deceptive and medium is more appropriate. We felt entirely ripped off for what we recieved.Choeng Mon is a lovely setting but out of all 5 beaches,certainly doesn t justify the price.We asked for a Pool View suite which at around 600Othb with a snippet of a pool view,is a total disgrace. One could have selected a characterful boat cabin WITH a seaview at 8000THB per night. I was so confused by the standard of room facilities, I actually enquired at reception whether they hadn t possibly made a mistake.The unfriendly reception staff didn t seem to be too sympathetic and informed me that of the 135 suites,we were in one of 7 select suites!Do yourself a favour by asking for a higher room with NO pool view.That way you might get a glimpse of the sea and in fact pay less for the lack of the pool view!!?????
The restaurant staff were however far friendlier,unfortunate that they aren t the welcoming bunch where the first impression is set!!!
Imperial does however have some nice facilities like a gym,large boat pool and a lovely small safe beach where one doesn t have to wade far out till shoulder height.
There is a lovely casual restaurant/cafe called Orchid Cafe, on the Main Road to the right about 100m down opposite Family Mart, that in fact help make up for the overcharging and left us feeling happy to have explored the area.
I think my opinion would be far different if we had paid half the price for what we got but unfortunately I feel done in!This is by no means PRIME Koh Samui, through 4 years of visiting it s unfortunate that a foreigner has to ditstinguish between worth it with ALL the bells and whistles and something so standard that costs so much more.
Good luck, we ll definitely be back to the area and beach but certainly not Imperial Boat House! <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |

Fantastic stay with my Family.We have a Boathouse-suite, for the kids like an adventure, very clean, air-condition,nearly to the pool and the see.
Also the restaurant was very good and the staff very friendly. Chairs at the see always avaibly. Powder-Sand and good stay to go to Chaweng-Beach on evening with the taxi.

Отель большой и многолюдный для сентября. Красивая территория, много цветущих деревьев,2 бассейна. Отель расположен на пляже. Но с утра и до 4-х дня очень мелко. И море трудно назвать чистым. Завтраки в ресторане отличные, большое разнообразие и вкусно. Сервис в гостинице в целом отличный. Мы купили обратные билеты на Самуи на ресепшене. Нам предложили удобный рейс и лучшую цену. Бесплатный интернет, которым мы пользовались прямо в комнате, подключив к нему свой ноутбук. А вот уборка в комнате неважная, порой с ней задерживали до 2-х-4-х часов. Да и балкон за все время пребывания ни разу не убрали. Но особо испортило впечатление об отеле история с купальниками. Так случилось, что выезжая из отеля на Ко Тао, мы забыли в торопях свои мокрые купальники на балконе. Перезвонили в отель через 2 часа и предупредили, что вернемся за ними чез 2 дня. Но купальники нам не вернули, сказали, что уборщица номера ничего не находила. Мне лично было очень жаль своего итальянского купальника. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |

Great Hotel, good location although a quieter location but only 5 mins from Chaweng. Beach lovely, facilities good, staff friendly. Rooms very good and clean, good variety in complex, AC not work great but enough to keep it just about right. Reception and greeting very good, they even organised a car and booking to the local hospital when girlfriend felt poorly and had a fresh bowl of fruit next day with a get well card, nice touch from the staff and management. Highly recommend. The Boat villas look amazing and very original. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |

We spent a wonderful holiday at Imperial Boat House Hotel. The hotel is situated on the most beautiful, comfortable and calm beach of Samui. We really enjoyed our staying.
The building of the hotel is very nice, rooms are comfortable and clean. The air-conditioner works excellently. The bathroom is big and nice too. The balcony (we lived in Premier room) is spacious.
The territory of the hotel is very beautiful and full of greenery. There are a lot of chaises longues around two swimming pools and on the beach. The beach is perfect. The water is really hot, very clean. The sea is calm, without big waves. The bottom of the sea is sandy.
The staff is very friendly and helpful.
There are a lot of restaurants near the hotel. You can find them right on the beach or walking 5 minutes away from the hotel, on the street.
It s easy to get to Chaweng. We rented a car during our staying, so it took us about 10 minutes to get to Chaweng.
I recommend the Imperial Boat House as the best place of spending your holiday. We re going to stay at the Imperial Boat next time. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |

We enjoyed our stay at Imperial Boat House hotel and Choeng Mon provides really nice and peaceful surroundings for holiday, still not too far from Chaweng by taxi. We stayed in one of the poolside terrace rooms where the garden pool was easily accessible. The room was ok except looked a little old already. The service at the hotel was very good and the staff were very friendly. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |
everything ok with the booking. |

Hotel with a nice atmosphere, a very nice staff. The boats need some renovation soon, but we liked them very much, except for the beds that was like sleeping on the flore, very hard. The brekfast and all the food at the hotel vas very good, but the Chalee restaurang on the small street on the right side of the hotell had the most exelent food and we recommend all to visit this retaurang. We had our dinner at Chalee 5 times during our 2 week stay att the boat house. |
Very good |

What a lovely welcome, with a cold fresh drink and a cold lemongrass smelling flanel to refresh our skin after long our journey!
Rooms were nice and clean and kept well or the 2 weeks we were there.
Free bottled water given to brush teeth with were a good help as we used it to drink from during the day around the pool or beach.
Pools were a little tatty looking although still welcoming so warm almost bath water temperature!
Fantastic spot to be in on the beach and thankfully not as busy mad and blowy as Chaweng Beach.
Pretty perfect flowers everywhere made a topic of conversation every day ideal to wear in ones hair!
Breakfast was plentiful and you could have eggs cooked fresh by every way possible, fried, scrambled, boiled or omeleted.
We would love to go again and we would request the same rooms (Premier pool/terrace ground floor} The rice boat accomodation gave a Thai feel and character but felts they would possibly be a bit warm and stuffy although may not be!
Thanks to all the staff as nothing was too much trouble. SAWADEECARR x <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |
Extremely helpful and efficient as had to change part of the booking and had a very good understanding of our needs.
Would use again without a doubt and were cheaper than any where else including they were cheaper than the htel direct!!!! This really says something when on a budget and a mission to get it at a good cost.
This hotel is cheaper if you book it early! :-) Thanks so much you will be recommended x SAWADEECARR X |

we stayed in premium room and were not disappointed. Rooms are spacious, immaculately cleaned and have more than adequate storage space for clothes etc. Breakfast varied. Location great for a quiet holiday - plenty of sunbeds for all guests whether you prefer one of the two pools or to sit at the beach area. If you want more variety for the evenings it s very near to Chaweng - you can book the hotel shuttle in and get a tuk tuk back or as we did, rent a moped which is very economical. A great place - we will be back ! |
very efficient - as always ! |

We were a family of four and rated the Hotel most highly on everything. It really was a most enjoyable stay, although we were only there for three nights. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel. As a family that wanted a bit of an up-market hotel and away from the normal tourist hotels - we were most happy. We would gladly go back. <span style="display:none">[R24 integr.ERR:escaping]</span> |
Vert good - quick respeonse and everything was in order as arranged. |

We have booked after an extensive search in the internet for a suitable place for a family with small children (we have a 1.5 year old girl). The hotel met our expectations and more. We booked for 5 days and extended two times for 4 nights every time. The staff is very friendly especially to children. The pool (boat) has a big children s pool and the beach is beautiful. The atmosphere on the beach is perfect for families and the sand is soft and clean. We have booked for the special prices and we think that it is an excellent value for money. The regular prices are thought, to high where as the rooms needs to be refurbished. Nevertheless, we recommend the hotel and we will be happy to come back there. |
Excellent !!! |
