Sofitel Centara Grand Resort & Villas Hua Hin
Extremely beautiful hotel, with excellent facilities and great rooms (we had the superior and they were spacious enough for a 3 p family). Three cons though; Hua Hin is a terrible place, the beach is not very inviting; and the staff is cold and distant compared with other hotels we have stayed in in Thailand. |
Super. No complaint. |

Sofitel Centara Grand Resort & Villas Hua Hin
A beatuful, large hotel on the beach located right at the center of the town. We were upgraded for a jounior suite room upon arrival for booking a superior room which was a pleasant surprise. Hotel staff are very friendly and helpful and a large percentage of them can understand basic English for communication needs. We enjoyed walking in town for dining and shopping which we could find everything in about 20-min walking radious. |
Went smoothly except for a moment of check-in process which seem a booking agency may have had a misspell or two. Nothing major. |

My first visit to Hua Hin and extremely impresed with the Sofitel. Location could not have been better - quiet and peaceful, marvelous gardens, swiming pools, excellent accommodation and extremely helpful staff. Our ground floor rooms had gardens facing the sea. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, the kids enjoyed horse riding and the pools. The advantage of the resort is that whilst serene and peaceful inside, one can walk out and immediately reach all the restaurants, shopping and a short walk down to the seafood restuarants. Thoroughly enjoyed out stay, would recommend this resort to one and all and will certainly be returning to the Sofitel and Hua Hin. |
As ever, no problems with hotel booking through Sawadee. Did experience a problem with the transport from the airport to the hotel, but this was solved. Have always booked my accommodation through Sawadee and continue to highly recommend both their rates and the service provided. |

This is the greatest hotel experience we ve ever had - we really enjoyed every minute at Sofitel HuaHin! Excellent and kind service from everyone in the staff, great room with seaview, huge breakfast with omelette corner, delicious pastrys, sushi, pancakes etc... Life could not be better - the three poolareas where clean and comfortable. We liked to cool of in the Elephant Bar every now and then, aircondition, cigars and nice canap?s to go with the drink :-) We can surely recommend this resort to everyone going to HuaHin, we would love to go back! |
Good price and reliable service. We will use Sawadee.com again! |

Sofitel Centara Grand Resort & Villas Hua Hin
This is to inform you about the following: We spend from August 14th till 21st. wonderfull days in the Sofitel Hua Hin resort. The food and drinks were excellent and the service from all personell from the reception, restaurant and pool was kindly, very proffessional and from a high level. We lived in SEASIA during 1994 and 1998 as expatriates and so we have quite some good and bad experience in this region.We found that the Sofitel Hua Hin has some comparison with the Rasa Saying hotel in Penang, altough for European people Thailand is now more attractive because of the low prices and currency vs the Euro. During my expatriate years I normally stayed in the Grand Hyatt Erawan in Bangkok, which I found one of the best Hotel in the SE region. During our recent vacation we went from Hua Hin to the Ambassador Hotel in Bangkok. Reason for staying there was because our friends received discounts as they are working as a KLM employee. I reserved a room by telephone and a suite for a family (max 2 adults and 1 child) was available for 3.800 thb per day. I of course understand the difference in service and room level as result of the price. The experience we had in the ambassador Hotel was terrible. The room was not dirty, old and smelly. The floor in the bathroom was wet and very dirty. The floor in the room was not clean. The airco. was possibly 15 years old.etc. etc. On top of this what we found a more serious matter is the attitude of the personel during breakfast, (man in black) they were just standing there and had a total wrong attitude. Every time someone asked them, they reacted irritated and unpleasent. The reception staff was friendly and more service oriented, as we experience in general in Thailand. If it was my hotel I moved the persons (again man in black, not the ladies) to the kitchen for leaning the dishes, so they will not been spotted by the hotelguests. One big advantage staying in a Hotel as the Ambassador is that coming home is much more fun. Staying longer in Hua Hin was of course the preference of all familymembers. |

I have been to this hotel a number of times and have always had excellent service. Staff are very attentive and make every effort to assist in making my stay enjoyable. The beachfront location and hotel grounds and pools give plenty of variety for how to spend your day lazing around. Alternatively the hotel will arrnage golf at the good local courses. |
Booking service was very efficient and rates offered were also very attractive. |
