We took this hotel as it's the cheapest package, and it offers great value indeed. 1) Staff - generally friendly, and they didn't bother us unless we went up to ask them on specific things. Gave detailed helpful info. 2) Location - it's along the Chaweng lake and not along the Chaweng main beach area. But they offer free shuttle... more

Great room and pool view from our balcony. Pool water seemed a little chalky at times but nothing serious. Breakfast consisted of quite a variety of different foods (pretty good value considering what we had paid). The resort was located slightly away from the main town centre but the shuttle service provided got us to and from the town with... more

Arrived in Koh Samui , got a taxi to Nova Hotel, Agree on a price for your taxi, before you get in it, always come down around 50baht to 100baht , from what ever price they offer you, haggle a bit, never pay full asking price for taxi's, the drivers are used to this, so dont worrie about doing this,... more

After reading previous reviews we decided to try Nova Samui anyway. Our 14 night stay was wonderful although very quiet as only 8 couples were staying. Only 1 night did we have the loud music as reported in a previous review, so it was not a problem. The staff couldnt do enough for you and were very attentive, the room... more

I returned on March 4, 2008 after 14 sleepless nights at the Nova Samui Resort on Koh Samui. The sleepless nights were the result of an outdoor, highly amplified, hard rock music venue which is located 5 minutes walk away from the hotel. The music starts at 7PM and continues nonstop until 2:30 to 5:30AM. The level of noise generated... more

In principle the rooms were okay, maybe my expectations were too high, but the room standard is not more than 3 star. The worst was the mouldy smell and damp in the rooms. We checked out appr 6 rooms before we accepted 2 of them. We did not try the restaurant because the prices were 6 times more expensive compared... more
