Amazing sea views

The ocean view room is beautifully and the view each morning is amazing. We had a family room, but the second room is to the back and you have no window, you can't move around the bed, so you need to crawl on to the bed. The owners were amazing and prepared our rooms early as we had a really early flight onto the island, there were so accommodating. It did state there was a pool but there is no pool so i don't understand how that works.. you can use the pool in a beach club up the road but there is a minimum spend of 500 baht per person, so i don't think that counts as having a pool. But i will say again if you want an amazing Seaview this is the place to stay.

We had a wonderful stay and felt like friends rather than guests. The staff could not do enough for us and our 4 day stay flew by. We will definitely return.

Fab location & staff

Excellent location, friendly staff, Eco room was very small without a window (but it was what I booked) so not hotels fault and we were unable to move rooms as hotel was full. Would not recommend eco room for more than one night.. the other rooms were beautiful & spacious and would stay here again and recommend this hotel, very clean.

The location is nice near to the good restaurants, stores, etc. But the beach is not good at all. The hotel is quite simple more indicated for who doesn’t want to spend too much money. The good point is the kind and efficient staff.

I really enjoyed my stay here. We arrived just before 7pm when the staff were due to leave, and they were still really warm and welcoming. We booked the eco twin room. It was compact but clean most importantly. We had free water, shower gel and shampoo, and towels to use. The room also had a tv which was appreciated as we don’t normally have one staying in cheaper accommodation. We used the laundry service which was really reasonably priced too, and our clothes came back glowing. Great location in the fisherman’s village, and you walk down the steps out the back and you’re on the beach. We had an excursion one day, and when the receptionist noticed we’d been waiting a while she rang the tour company for us. It was ever so kind as she really didn’t have to, but of course we were grateful. All staff were really friendly whenever we saw them. Brilliant stay, I would come back!

Great/Decent location, good markets, decent beach (pebble/sand) hotel staff very nice and helpful!!!! Unfortunately room compared to other hotels at the same price or cheaper did not stack up, bed was uncomfortable, room was small, dirty, air conditioning didnt work properly and the room was very noisy. Staff were great but I wouldn't stay there again.

Great location

Hotel was very nice and superb location. Only downside was a couple arguing at 4am for 2 hours so we couldn’t sleep, and as the reception is not 24 hours we couldn’t do much about it.

This hotel is in a good location for the fisherman’s market (only runs on Fridays) but the beach is not very nice. The water is murky and the sand is not great. We had an issue upon check in with our room being dirty and we were upgraded to the hill side room. This room was nice, clean and spacious. Overall would recommend the hotel but not the location

The beach view room was very nice. Right on the beach with a little balcony and great views. The staff was friendly and the location is great. It is right on the edge of the dining/shopping area in Fisherman's Village. Lots of dining options but not too noisy.

Nice hotel, poor training

Before checking in, I called to arrange our pick up, the front desk agent was rude and unhelpful . When we got to the hotel the same rude lady was there. She told us They’ve been over booked so they upgraded our room. Which was very nice of them but it looked like she was unhappy to do so. After we checked in the bell man was excellent, he stored our bags and showed us everything at the hotel. Helped us to plan our day and made sure we had a great breakfast. Later on we found out we have A LOT of ants above the headboard. We called them but no one ever came to check it. As we checked out, the same lady was at the desk. There was a problem with the charges and we had made her aware of Them and requested she adjust the charge. We informed her that we had little time as we had a ride waiting for us. I gave her my credit card and it seemed as she had made the adjustment. She then proceeded to overcharge my credit card without saying anything. I requested to speak with the manager and no one came. It was quite rude, it was a small amount but she had Handled the situation extremely poorly. We went to the managers office (after they called him and he didn’t come). He immediately said “this is your vacation, I don’t want you to be upset and deal with it”, he took 200THB from his own wallet and gave it to me. We felt better leaving as he had handled the situation well. The hotel is beautiful, it’s a shame that the service from the front desk staff was poor.

Beautiful beach view!!

This hotel is in a prime location, situated on bo phut beach. There is lots of restaurants and shopping near by. Would recommend the sea view room, it is absolutely stunning. Definitely the most expensive place we stayed in south east Asia but if you are willing to pay it won't disappoint. Staff and reception was very helpful and friendly!

Hotel was fine, tidy and clean , best views were at the back of the hotel as they overlooked the sea , we were on the front so overlooked the main road, bean bags were great to relax on the beach, and was nice to be able to have a tea or coffee free up till about 11 in the morning, good location with plenty going on, would return here again

Great value for the eco room!

Really pleased with the hotel for the price we paid. Our eco room was small, but very clean. The giant beanbags to take onto the beach are a great idea also. We had problems with a trip booking we had made one morning and the reception staff could not be more helpful! Only slight disappointment was that there was not a TV in our room as described on hotels.com. We have been travelling for around 3months at this point and as Bophut is expensive, for us having a television to spend an hour or two of an evening watching is a welcome home comfort and something a little less costly than sitting and having drinks. Therefore we were a little disappointed when we discovered this was not part of our room - not the hotels fault, but something to be aware of when you book through hotels.com

It's a boutique hotel.

When it's branded as a boutique hotel, I'll expect it to be compact, not small. Everything in its place. Modern decor, clean, comfortable and beautiful. Minimalist. This hotel fits most of the criteria of a boutique hotel. One of the most important thing is customer service, and Riviera Bay Hotel has it too. Nat, the person managing the front desk, manages it very well. Speaks good English. Constantly asking if I need help. If everything is ok. She got me a plug adapter and an extension, even an umbrella when I needed one. It was the scorching sun and I did not ave a cap. The room is tiny, but kept very clean and just nice for a lone traveler. The room has 2 single beds placed side by side pushed to the side of the wall. There is not much room left to place your luggage. The window is only in the bathroom but bright enough to give the room some light. It's the simplicity of the room that made it feels cozy. The aircond and water heater are working in tip top condition. For another THB700, you can get the room with a balcony looking out to sea. But I thought my little room is good enough for the price I paid and I liked it. Another best part of it is its location. It's located on the side of Bophut which is quieter. It's on the street where all the restaurants and activities happen everyday. But just 100 meter away from all the noise, so made it the quieter side. I'll definitely stay here again. And Bophut to me is a better place to stay compared to Chaweng.
