Bluesotel Smart Hotel

What was good - Room clean and tidy. Bath comfortable. Water hot. A proper sized mug to have a cup of coffee was appreciated. Tea and coffee making facilities. Comfortable bed. Tv can play YouTube but cannot mirror from an iPhone. Definitely no feeling of luxury but a decent enough room. Friendly staff. Close to beach and no children. The roof top pools are lovely with a great view but the walking surface is slippy and it is oddly thought out design wise (big air conditioning systems placed on the roof at the front???) . It could have been spectacular! Lots of people smoking immediately near the pool (so gross). But definitely worth noting that there is a lot of construction taking place in front of the hotel towards the beach. A large crane is currently located right near the hotel. I suspect the views of the sea may be completely obscured in the future. That will be a shame. The biggest downside for us was the noise when in the room due to poor soundproofing. Every door, bang, thud, talking, housekeeping trolleys can be heard. Heavy thuds woke us numerous times so we didn’t sleep well. You can hear it from every direction. It’s quite unpleasant. There was also a hole in our sheet. It’s a cheap price point so you have to decide what matters.

Nice hotel with spacious rooms and all the necessary amenities. The minimalistic design is a bit soulless for such a picturesque place as Ao Nang and some of the architectural features are questionable. But the rooftop pool is really nice. Breakfast is quite good so are the cocktails at the rooftop bar. Located in just a few minutes walk from the beach. All in all, a decent experience.
