“A bit to basic and outdated”

Reviewed 9 March 2013

We were here in July, not the best season of course. Everything in the room felt very humid, the sheet on the bed felt clammy and a number of them had old stains. Bathroom very outdated. This must have been a place where the hippies used to gather in the 70's. It was nice to have the bar, a place... More

Thank you for taking your time to make a review of our hotel. Staff and I are very happy that you had a good time here even this year.

During the last 4 years, our family have stayed several times at this guesthouse. The perfect place for us. Quiet surroundings but still only 2 km's from the Ao Nang beach and all the action. Easy transportation with the songthaews passing right outside the hotel every five or ten minutes. Very kind and helpful staff will help you with all... More

“Ok place to stay”

Reviewed 13 January 2013

Clean rooms, but not vert Nice. The bed was horrible. OK location, but not the best. About 2km from town. Quite place, no noise at night. The staff was friendly, but not so good at speaking english. I would rather stay somewhere else next time in Ao Nang.

Hanna G. Thank you for the review. The mattresses has been changed - I agree, there has been a problem with them in some of the rooms, but it's cleared now. We always have at least one English speaking person in our reception. Kitchen- and cleaning staff generally do not speak English. More

“Nice rooms but awful drinks prices!”

My friend from Denmark stayed here for a few nights and I visited a few times. It was a nice place and nice rooms and overall a nice experience for me. Just until I went to the restaurant with my friend and ordered 2 danish drinks named "snaps"... Then I got the bill which said 400 THB for 2 drinks!!!... More

Hi Christian Thank you for your review, even if you never stayed at our hotel. I suppose that your friend supplied you with the information about the rooms , sleeping quality, and more, things that you yourself could not possibly know about, but I don't know. At least he seemed very happy when staying here. As you mentioned. A good... More

“Disappointing”

Reviewed 10 December 2012

It sounded enticing and a discount was offered but...I felt I wasted time and money . I had hoped to use this hotel as a base during visit to the region but could only tolerate one night. The bed was as hard as rock - and this is a camper speaking . It's a little out of the way but... More

Dear Elizabeth. Discount 35 %. You get what you pay for. Price for your a/c room was 715 THB only, in high season As you mention all matresses are brand new. Location close to everything but still in a quiet area of Ao Nang. We are a B&B guest house and therefore the dining- and menu is limited. We serve... More

“Want to sleep on plastic? Stay here.”

Reviewed 7 December 2012

Stayed here for one night only, since we wanted a break from Ao Nang, and hoped that their "Scandinavian style" beds would treat our backs better than the rather hard Thai-style beds. That was a mistake. The place it self isnt that bad, I liked it, actually, but the beds was a disaster. Hard, firm mattresses, and they were still... More

Scandinavian Residence is a Thailand based Bed & Breakfast guesthouse.

“What a disappointment!”

Reviewed 8 September 2012

We spent 3 nights at the Scandinavian Residence over the New Year's. The Tripadvisor rating weas excellent, the booking process by e-mail with the manager "Dr Steen" went smoothly. The disappointment came when we entered our room. As demonstrated by the uploaded photos, there were disgusting (blood?) stains on the wall, the cushion cover was ripped, there was trash and... More

Thanks for your review. But what took you nearly 9 months to file your disappointment as you could have done it directly to me (I am availabel 24/7 in the high season) and your problem would have been solved directly. The housekeeper attending your room clearly was not aware of the complimentary fruit thing. I must say, that personally I... More
