“Nice little hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 December 2011

stayed here late August 2011. Wasn't sure what to expect of Karon or this Hotel. After a lot of searching on tripadvisor I decided on this place and it was more than fine. Actually, it was a lot bigger than I expected. It is very deep and narrow, adjacent to a couple of other hotels, so it is deceptive from the road-front. I had a room towards the back but the room was huge and was only about $35 aud per night. Hotel is across the road from the beach and the breakfast was decent. The markets are about 100m away and the main circle about a 8 minute walk to the right. The internet is bit of a hassle if you are staying down the back, as you need to walk to the lobby everytime you use it - it's about a 300m walk - the hotel is very long/deep.
The rooftop pool is great, a very good size. If i'm ever in karon again, I would stay here without hesitation, although Karon isn't really the nicest of places...good time I had though

“A good spot especially for a short stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 December 2011

We stayed at Karon Princess on our return from the less touristy areas. KP is extends from the busy beach road inland following the type of long and narrow properties near the beach. Check-in and out service with no particular hassle but not much attentive attitude either except by the service-oriented gentleman who carried our luggage to the room. The location of the room makes a difference in this hotel. We stayed at B2302 which was great as it is far enough from the beach road but comes with almost unobstructed views from the balcony to the sea and pretty nice pool area. B2301, B2401, B2402 have a similar configuration. The room itself was clean and functional - nothing fancy but the price/quality is certainly ok. Buffet breakfast is a box standard set up with not much authenticity but quite acceptable. Pool area is quite nice, the beach is just across the road and there are plenty of restaurants and markets in the neighborhood.

Room Tip: B block rooms facing the pool area with semi-seaview.

“Enjoyable stay, friendly staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 September 2011

person found this review helpful

Myself and 5 others booked for a 5 night stay at Karon Princess with the intention of staying elsewhere for another 2 nights instead we extended our booking for 7 nights which was no hassle at all. The rooms were clean and the room was made up fresh everyday. The free daily breakfast included was well supplied with many choices to fill up and get a great start to the day, fresh fruit, freshly made omeletes, cereals etc. The staff were more than friendly and very helpful. The hotel is in a great location just across from the beach, great restaurants around the corner, markets a short stroll up the street and no trouble getting a tuk tuk or taxi.

“if you are on a budget look no further this is absolute Value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 May 2011

for the price this is simply great ,online booking thro jet tours costed me 10.5k INR for 6 nights for a deluxe sea facing double room this is absolute value for money

located on karon road , very quiet ,away from all night activities bang opposite the karon beach , rooms are absolutely clean and large with a lovely toilet , breakfast provided was good too , if you get rooms a little bit inside its a long walk this is not a concern ,you could hire 2 wheelers from the hotel @ 200Bhats this is a must if you want to explore the town, there amazing hotels in a lane jst a km away

Karon road is ideal for families and all ameneties is ideally located close by ,if you have a 2 wheeler with you nothing like it , the staff are friendly enough but english speaking is difficult but they do try , but they know exactly what they are doing

highly recommended , will definetly stay again @ karon princess,

“Do not stay here at all”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 February 2011

Over priced, rude uncaring staff and really untidy. Have to walk heough engineering workshop to room. Staff not interested to help. The restaurant very poor with a broken floor. Avoid at all costs. Also used a lot by low cost Russian tour companies.
