Als Hut Hotels

Sara stayed at Als Hut on 2008-05-18 and said, "super cute bungalows set in a garden style resort. the staff are friendly and the security guard delivers you to your front door. excellent restuarant out on the beach and massage parlour too. right next door to the ark bar which is a cool place to hang out for dinner and drinks for all ages and still bearable to sleep through the night....this is a gorgeous low budget accomodation. its quite small but i dont spend time in my hotel room on holidays. Air con was a life saver and the mini bar was cheaper than the restuarant we cleared it out every day lol....we went back for the two extra nights because the price couldnt be beat and the location is central!"

Reg stayed at Als Hut on 2008-05-07 and said, "The rooms at Al s Hut are very small as other reviews have stated, you have to crawl into and out of bed from the bottom of mattress, no room to get in at side of bed, no drawers to store clothes, we transferred to Al s Resort (owned by the same people) the very next day, rooms there are great. Everything else at Al s Hut is fine, good breakfast, good bar and right on beach, (except beach is a bit rocky).Al s Hut is a bit noisey with the music playing all around.Al s Resort is the place to stay."

Kyung stayed at Als Hut on 2008-03-29 and said, "Bit too downmarket. The room was small and shower was substandard. We changed to Al s Resort which was double the price but great rooms and good setting. Staff were helpful and curteous. It was a great holiday"

Jo-Anne stayed at Als Hut on 2008-03-19 and said, "Rooms small but everything you need. excellent service - our airconditioning broke down and within 15 of us reporting it to reception an engineer had arrived and fixed it. Breakfast was nice. Clean towels every day for beach also. Chawang beach wasn t as clean as Lamai Beach - Al s Hut s = Good."

Steffen, stayed at Als Hut on 2008-03-08 and said, "We had a very nice time at this location. Everything was at least as good as we expected to be. Small but clean and smart bungalows. Beautyful environment and friendly staff. The restaurant offers very good meals and even breakfast (till 10:30 am) was fine with nearly everything you desire. Very good combination of being near at the beach and staying in the middle of the heart of chaweng. No problems at all. Would stay there everytime again."

Ermel stayed at Als Hut on 2008-03-08 and said, "We had a really good time, it was our first Thailand trip at all. And we are sure to come back, maybe to Als Hut, too. Very clean rooms, very friendly staff, very good food etc. Simply Perfect Holidays!"

Kevin stayed at Als Hut on 2008-02-23 and said, "Only stayed 2 nights.Location s ideal if you want to be in the centre of everything on Chaweng Beach.This is BASIC accommodation but probably ideal for someone backpacking .Rooms are dark inside,Double bed takes up most of the room space,airconditioning in the room is adequate,shower was okay but when it rained, water started running down the wall inside the bathroom.Oh yeah,and you are right on the flight path to Samui Airport,so close in fact you ll think the plane s landing at the hotel! I personally wouldn t stay here again but my 20 year old daughter did and thought it was great."

Michelle stayed at Als Hut on 2008-02-06 and said, "Arriving at Al s Huts after travelling for hours was a relief. We found the place to be axactly if not more than what we expected. I would definitely stay there again and not to mention recommend anyone to stay there. The service was great facilities enough and location spot on. a few steps from the beach to a minutes walk to the bustle of the city centre what more could you want."

cigdem stayed at Als Hut on 2008-02-03 and said, "What can i say this place for me was 10 out of 10 perfect the only thing is if you have sensitive ears and like to go to bed early then this place is not for you as the music from the clubs may keep you awake other than that its a very safe place to stay and the staff or always friendly and helpfull hands down the best place to stay in Koh Samui"

William stayed at Als Hut on 2008-01-11 and said, "Excellent, good facilities and layout, nice rooms and friendly service. good beach frontage and bar, massage, restaurant.The only problem was a nearby bar on the main road - the Bar Solo , which pumped out techno bass until 6:30 am. Enquiring I found out the place is owned by a local policeman, which is why nothing is done about it."

Aleshia stayed at Als Hut on 2007-12-27 and said, "In the center of town and on chaweng beach, so great location except you can hear the music from the clubs all through the night. Cute little bungalow, very clean and neat, good value for money for the traveller on a budget."

Matthew stayed at Als Hut on 2007-12-26 and said, "Al s Hut was a lovely clean place to stay on the Chewang Beach. Very friendly staff and the food was great at their restaurant on the sand.They even found out about Steph s birthday and they put a suprise birthday cake in the mini bar saying Happy Birthday The only downside was that breakfast isn t great but then, we later went to places that were three times the price and breakfast still wasn t very good so I guess they re only offering the same standard as anyone else. Enough with the eggs already!Very pleasant stay, highly recommended."

Richard stayed at Als Hut on 2007-11-14 and said, "Simple, basic, clean and safe. This is an OK place if you want to be right in the middle of the action, but if you like an early night be warned the music in the nearby bars goes on until the early hours. Nevertheless, a good budget option with TV, fridge and hot shower."

Moskalenko stayed at Als Hut on 2007-11-01 and said, "Very good place. Good service.We will come back again.Thank you very much!!!"

Louise stayed at Als Hut on 2007-10-13 and said, "For what you pay Al s Huts are a great deal. They were clean but had the basics, right near the beach. Security is good . Really recommend the Bungalows. Only comment was the Fruit at breakfast was not as fresh as it good have been but hey they will cook you scrambled eggs if you like! Friendly staff . Will definately go back."

Leong stayed at Als Hut on 2007-10-11 and said, "It is not good but fair enough in terms of location. Price is a little too high in view of the size of the room,although clean and cosy.However,the air-condition unit is noisy.As for the front desk reception,a few of them show their sour face and became unresponsive to request especially after when you don t rent a bike from them because they don t have the bike you wanted and when you don t take the tour package from them because price is higher than you pay for outside vendor.The restaurant staffs doesn t speak a little english at all.For this price,I would not want to stay in this resort again."

Morten stayed at Als Hut on 2007-09-01 and said, "Fourth time in Samui..third stay in Al s Hut. Every stay has been great. But this time it was even better than the two first stays. There has been some replacements in the staff, which has been for the better. Very friendly staff alround. Everything runs smoothly, but in a very relaxed kind of way. Nice to see that they are constantly trying to improve every aspect of running the resort. One thing that was not ok was the dishes in the restaurant containing beef. The beef meat was of very poor quality and it was so tough that it was almost impossible to chew. This has not been a problem in the past. A shame because we liked to eat at Al s restaurant on the beach. Thanks to the staff at Al s Hut for making one more stay in Samui memorable. We shall return."

Ninni stayed at Als Hut on 2007-08-30 and said, "We had a very nice stay at Als Hut. The room wasn t big but nice and clean. The hotel is only meters from beach and just in the middle of Chaweng beach. I will recommend to stay here. Near beach near shopping :-)"

MISHAL stayed at Als Hut on 2007-08-25 and said, "location :the hotel is very good location at the center ( 5 star )the breakfast is good (3 star )the room is very small ( 1 star )the staff is not good not friendly ( 1 star )"

Gareth stayed at Als Hut on 2007-06-24 and said, "Great location, decent room, decent breakfast, laid back staff. Location just pushes the value from decent to good."

christopher stayed at Als Hut on 2007-06-21 and said, "GREAT LITTLE FIND RIGHT IN THE HEART OF CHAWENG RIGHT ON THE BEACH,CHEAP ACCOMODATION BUT A REAL HIGH QUALITY FEEL TO THE COSY ROOMS VERY IMPRESSED"

Rob stayed at Als Hut on 2007-06-16 and said, "Hotel Ok for price, good position , tho sometime noisy if you not part of the beach party + currently hotel being built right next door..."

Premkumar stayed at Als Hut on 2007-05-30 and said, "The hotel was in a great location for my friends and I who were looking forward to the beach and the night life. The rooms are quite small and might not be able to accomodate a 3rd person. Even for 2 people it was quite cramped. Other than that the rooms, bed, bathroom and linen were all clean and a great bargain for the low price. If all you need is a place to store your luggage and just sleep for the night..then this is a great place to stay... considering everything you need is a stone s throw away from the hotel."

Morten stayed at Als Hut on 2007-05-20 and said, "Nice and pleasent stay.... Close to the beach and to all the action at Chaweng... 5 minutes from SOi Green Mango but still quiet.. Very nice and helpfull staff...."

John stayed at Als Hut on 2007-04-20 and said, "the bungalow itself is OK if abit small, but got charged for things I did not use in the mini bar :-(("

Duncan stayed at Als Hut on 2007-04-05 and said, "Average accomodation. Room s were very small, although cleaned daily. Also cheap room key replacement, we lost ours and had a locksmith fix the problem, in less time than it would take to get an ambulance in Australia!The plus s are that the massage beds are the best I saw on Chaweng Beach and the restaurant was pretty good. Average breakfast.This place is fairly quiet, except watch out they are still doing construction right next door which can make things very noisy.Overall, nice but much better value elsewhere on chaweng beach"

Vichea stayed at Als Hut on 2007-03-31 and said, "The layout of the resort is a nice landscape to what I expected. But I felt very disappointed on the room itself, it is very small, hardly to move around by 2 persons between the desk and bed. Bathroom had bad odor and small. The evening diner set-up is excellent and romantic, but if one is looking for a quiet and romantic place, it is not the place, because the surrounding hotels are very loud due to they are suitable for backpackers, and loved drinkers, which made the place loud and uncomfortable to quiet couple. Concluded, I don t recommend to any newlywed or romantic couple to be located, but for others are suitable just perfectly."

Tanja stayed at Als Hut on 2007-03-20 and said, "Nice and cosy and very clean huts. Small huts but enough if you only need a nice clean place to sleep and to shower. For people wiht little children (like us), the huts are maybe a little too small. At night you can hear the music coming from the beach which was for us no problem but good to know for people who do mind to hear music late at night. Again: nice and very clean, free beds at the beach. Very nice and helpfull personel. Would recommend it!"

Bob stayed at Als Hut on 2007-02-16 and said, "The huts are cozy, clean, and situated very nice with own beach and near to the party zone. However, quite noisy in the night because too close to the bars! Can hear the base pumpin louder than air condition till 3:30am! The beach is nice, very warm water. However, at the hight of the resort not good for swimming, the water level only reaches the knees. Just a bit further down are nice spots to swim. The resort provides cots for free and a waiter to order drinks etc.. After all, it s a really very nice resort, but because of the noise in the night I won t go there again."

Henrik stayed at Als Hut on 2007-01-20 and said, "very nice place right where it happens on chaweng beach. just a minutes walk down to the beach and all the action. service minded personnell and a bungalow in good condition."

ANDREA stayed at Als Hut on 2007-01-17 and said, "THIS PLACE ARE INCREDIBLE!!!!!!THE BEST LOCATION AND BUNGALOW FOR THIS PRICE IN ALL SAMUI!!!!!!!"

Morten stayed at Als Hut on 2007-01-02 and said, "I ve been in Samui 3 times and have stayed on Al s Hut 2 of those times. When I return to Samui, which will be as soon as possible, I will definitely stay at Al s Hut again. The staff is over the top friendly with only a few exceptions. Everything is running smoothly and the beach and massage area doesn’t come any better on the Island. The bungalows are very cosy and the resort area itself is just a very nice place to be. And it’s placed on the best part of Chaweng Beach. The food is good and when the restaurant is set on the beach at night with all the lights, it’s one of the nicest places to be, and not just on Samui, but in the world.I only have one thing beside one or two none service minded waiters and that is the staff’s lack of ability to speak English. It’s such a shame that the knowledge of the English language isn’t better because we would like to talk a lot more with these very friendly and nice people. So Hotel managers “give your employees courses in English� To the staff from Al’s Hut, thank you very much and we will see you again soon."

Ali stayed at Als Hut on 2006-12-23 and said, "It was a disappointment!!! The hotel is not as nice as it looks on the website at all. The receptionist was RUDE, it was almost like we owe her money when we checked in. The taxi and motorcycle rental charges are more expensive than the vendor outside. I tried to ask them some information like how much should I pay for the tuk tuk , they didn t want to give an answer as of we deserve to get rip off since we are tourists/foreigners. The room is REALLY TINY and very dark. And the worst is you can t sleep at night, because of the disco pub on the street, it s got loud speakers banging all night long till like 3 or 4 AM. There is no pool at the hotel,and breakfast is a JOKE! Facilities are old and need cleaning urgently. Though you can walk to the beach in 2 minutes and be in the center of action. I d say if if the room costs only 25 dollars a night, then it is okay to stay there for budget travelers. We stayed there during high season, the room is far over-charged than what it s worth."

paul stayed at Als Hut on 2006-10-19 and said, "Room ok for the traveller who does not have much luggage. facilities fine, massage by the beach, good food, nice restaurant, friendly staff, bar, clean rooms, mini bar, large bed, could do with more lighting as was quite dimly lit though. shower adequate with hot water and air con. good value but if on a budget, there are cheaper around with similar facilities only not on the beach. in a good location for the night life of green mango and about a 5 min taxi ride to the cheaper, and in a way more interesting, night life near the reggae bar. fantastic bar near there called ME ME BAR, highly recommended, great staff, pool tables, sports TV. If you go there tell the boss, charlie recommended it!"

Marshall stayed at Als Hut on 2006-09-19 and said, "The hotel was not bad for the price, but the service and attitude was very poor at times. Overall, I would probably try one of the other hotels on the island."

Leow stayed at Als Hut on 2006-08-27 and said, "hotel is at good location but the beach is very bad.Breakfast not up to expectation.other than that service is ok."

Phillip stayed at Als Hut on 2006-08-21 and said, "Good central location for Chaweng Beach and its town for shopping, restaurants and nightlife. Not the best part of the beach, but can easily walk a bit further south for better swimming spots. Somewhat noisy from nearby beach bars, with constant beat going nearly all night (bungalows further from beach might be more quite). The small bungalow was a bit dark inside, but was welcoming and friendly. Staff were friendly and helpful. Did have to ask about getting some soap and missed drinking water. Good place if you wish to be close to the action and don t mind a few rough edges. Quite nice place."

Motta stayed at Als Hut on 2006-08-12 and said, "hotel was unfortunately not as defined in the web. There was no enormous bungalow but very very small ones. The worst was in any case the beach, where it was not possible to take a bath, as there is plenty of rocks and stones. To live the beach you have to move 500 m. right of the hotel beach."

Thomas stayed at Als Hut on 2006-07-12 and said, "Fabulous getaway for the easy-going, low-key traveller - comfy beds, good aircon, right on the beach and a stones throw from the action! Will not hesitate in recommending Al s Hut!"

Mr. stayed at Als Hut on 2006-06-24 and said, "Me and my 2 friends found AL s Hut to be a great place to stay if you want to be in the heart of the action. Right on the beach at the north end of chewang and only 2 minutes walk to green mango. The rooms are basic with sat tv,air con and shower room and set in beautiful shaded compound with tall trees. The only negative comment i d make about this place is the constant harrassment by the beach boys selling there wares whilst your trying to chill on the beach,I aknowledge this as nothing to do with AL s Hut but it can be a pain in the ass at times. If it s a cheap place in a good location on chewang i d recommend AL s Hut."

Amanda stayed at Als Hut on 2006-05-03 and said, "Bungalow was very small and the bathroom not so nice, but the setting was lovely and the staff very helpful."

Mr stayed at Als Hut on 2006-04-17 and said, "first class, lovely people and sawadee.com was very helpfully. I would defenatly stay here again and book through sawadee.com."

Margaret stayed at Als Hut on 2006-04-17 and said, "Please stay away from this hotel.Right away you feel not welcome in this place.Staff - the bunch of ignorants with bad atitute, lazy, not helpfull at all. At breakfast they like to clean the lids and dust the buffet table rather than help people if you ask for something.Bangalow is to small,beds uncomfortable."

Sam stayed at Als Hut on 2006-04-16 and said, "Hey! This is very nice hotel that i stay at K.samui , first the location is central at market , it is very convinient to go for night shopping ..., the price reasonable & staff servcie excellent .strongly recommend for backpacker .."

Tara stayed at Als Hut on 2006-03-26 and said, "This is the second time I have stayed at Al s Hut. The huts are situated right in Chaweng steps to the beach and are well maintained. The huts are basic and clean...The people working here are fabulous....always friendly and comforting. Close to Starbucks, lots of restaurants and night life without being noisy. I will come again, next time to Samui...the people are incredible and the ladies for massages work wonders!"

Karina stayed at Als Hut on 2006-03-17 and said, "The bungalows are claustrofobic, there is no place to put your luggage. We had cigarette holes in our sheet. Room wasn t clean. Air condition made me sick. There is a breakfast buffet, but everything was cold (bacon, sausages).The resort is situated in the mosst crowded and thinniest area of the Chaweng beach. It s too close to the airport, you can hear all the planes taking off above your head!I didn t like this place and would never stay here again."

Frankie stayed at Als Hut on 2006-03-15 and said, "The room was smaller than what we anticipated as the photo on the website was taken at an angle.No greetings from staff on checking-in, very unlike the usual Thai friendliness.Gave us a room next to all the loud music and when we requested for a change of room refuse to do so when there are still rooms available.Insisted we requested a room near the beach.Reception contacted Sawadee after much insistence but they were just as bad.Perhaps we re Singaporean.Breakfast buffet varieties limited.Check-out some other hotels along Chaweng, all the rooms were just as small."

Elias stayed at Als Hut on 2006-03-09 and said, "My stat was pretty uneventful. The hotel was everything I hoped it would be...excellently located, private, individually situated in a bungalow style, and affordable. There were no surprise charges nor fees involved with checkin. The breakfast was very quiet and outdoor right on the beach. This was really nice. The only thing I would say negative is that I asked for a lightbulb to be changed in the bathroom at 7:30 am one day. When I returned after a long day of a full-day tour that had some mishaps, the last thing I wanted was to hunt down a light bulb after hours. I reported it again and it was immediately replaced. One thing I noticed about Thailand is that when foreigners have special requests, instead of voicing thier inability to understand the request, the attendants just say yes to be nice but they don t have a clue what you want. The do that A LOT! I had another one of those happen at a Bangkok hotel and again at the airport. Overall, I d give Al s Hut a solid review. They really were excellent. The best thing is that they re directly across the street from Starbucks!!"

K.Antoniadis stayed at Als Hut on 2006-03-07 and said, "Loved the place !! Close to the beach, reasonable prices, and ( I cannot stress tha enough) GREAT STAFF!! I do believe they made all the difference! The place is simple,clean,but lovable if you are in the right mood.."

David stayed at Als Hut on 2006-02-22 and said, "Right on the beach. Friendly staff. In my room it smelled faintly like sewage every morning between 8 and 11...dont know why. That was a bit annoying. The huts are small but mine was well maintained."
