.....the value for money paid made the whole Kata Beach area over-priced. The Kata Minta had very friendly and helpful staff and the rooms were satisfactory basic rooms although much higher priced than in other areas in SE Asia. The hotel fronts on a busy street and has restaurants and bars in the area so the front rooms can be... more

We stayed at the Kata Minta for a week. It is 5 minutes walk to the beach and close to all the amenities you might need - coffee shops, restaurants, corner shops. The room was large and clean, though worn I suppose. The bathroom was servicable, if not luxurious in any way. We had airconditioning (this actually broke down one... more

Closer to 3.5/5 - 2 minute walk to the beach - Sauna and jacuzzi - Nice food - The staff are very friendly but it would help to know the area a little more. No map of Kata or Phuket provided. - Showerhead and taps were covered in some mould. I did ask for this to be cleaned but nothing... more

Kata Minta was a fantastic value. To get clean and nice rooms that are only a few minutes walk from the beach was great! The staff was friendly enough and it was quiet. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. more

We stayed at Kata Minta for 4 nights and overall the stay was very pleasant. It was kind of home away from home. Greatest part was close proximity to beach. Not more than 3-4 minute walk. The staffs were excellent. The lady at the reception was attentive. Another one who cleaned the room was thorough in her job. After usual... more

We stayed in Kata Minta only for one day/night, while waiting for our Liveaboard crew to pick us up. The hotel was recommended by the Dive corp. and for a good reason! Stylish Thai decor, warm and hospitable personnel and neat location. Very well worth the money! more

We have been staying at the Kata Minta with our family since 2004. This year we only stayed three nights as we were heading up to Khao Lak. The Kata Minta's rooms are comfortable, we have always asked for the front rooms when booking direct with the boutique hotel. The Staff from the Manager to the housekeeper have always been... more

This hotel is well-located if you want to spend your days on the somewhat quiet Kata Beach. Kata Beach is only a 3 minute walk from this hotel. The hotel rooms are nice, breakfast is okay, but our room smelled so badly of pesticides (for killing bugs) and toxic cleaning fluids that we could not even sleep! They had no... more

When inadvertantly delayed in Southern Thailand, we decided to detour to Phuket and booked this hotel on the strength of previous good reviews - and we not disappointed at all. We found the hotel easily as it is only around the corner from where the local bus from Phuket town stops, and were delighted to be welcomed into reception with... more
