Royal Pavilion Hua Hin

A little off the main tourist area. Our ‘sea view’ was off in the distance. The hotel was lovely. Nice rooms, big, hot water on demand! Not far from night market.  We did not buy the onsite breakfast, we don’t move quickly in the morning 😉 No smart tvs. I had a medical treatment that kept me in the room for 24 hours.

The hotel is clean and the room space is big within the price range. Moreover, the lights within the room is bright whether from electricity or from the sunlight. The location is also very good as it is within a walking distance (700 meters) from the huahin night market. There’s a lot of food around the hotel e.g. the bread shop and the papaya salad.

The hotel staff are all very friendly. The breakfast is very nice. I saw one guest drop an utensil and she picked it up and placed it back. I'm worried that it is not hygiene to reuse it. However, one staff member came to replace it with a new one. This impressed us. Good hygiene practice.

Location is very convenient! Hotel staff are friendly anytime.

Location is about 15mins walk from Hua Hin train station. The hotel is also about 5 - 10mins walk to the night market and about 10 - 15mins walk to the beach. There are food eateries nearby the hotel so it was not an issue when the booking did not include breakfast. Check in / check out was smooth, but the hotel staff explained to me that my booking was for the economy room which is facing the road on the 2nd floor and the windows are directly facing the hotel floodlights. Fortunately, the room has day curtains at the windows to block out most of the light beam and the flood lights are switched off later into the night. The shower comes with an instant heater and the room comes with a kettle and bottled water. There is no toothbrush and no toothpaste and bedroom slippers are not provided. The mattress and pillows are firm but I didn't manage to sleep well at night as there was constant opening and closing of doors loudly along the corridor in the middle of the night and many voices could be heard speaking very loudly.

The staff were excellent. Very good buffet breakfast and hotel was very clean. They allowed me to bring my bicycle to my room no problem. If there as a weak point it would be the pool. Blocked by buildings so really no direct sun if that is a concern for you. The gym was good, small but had what I needed and everything worked and I appreciated they provided disinfectant so I could wipe down machines before and after. I would absolutely stay here again and was 2 blocks from the night market and 2 blocks from the daily fresh fruit market
