There is no door and an open window in the bathrooms. No privacy. Food and drinks at the hotel were extortionate for Thailand. Sewage smell at the beach and poolside was terrible.

Absolutely loved this place. The staff were extremely friendly and pools and grounds were kept very clean. It’s located right on the beach although we stayed on the mountain side it wasn’t that big a drama crossing the road. It’s a bit out of town but if you hire a scooter as we did that’s not a problem. Would recommend the hotel to anyone thinking about going to Koh Samui.

Good family hotel

Spend 10 days at Novotel Chaweng beach, and was all in all happy about the stay. The hotel staff is very friendly, 2 nice pool areas and location directly at the beach and a short walk away from the center of Chaweng beach was perfect for a family holiday.

Great first time experience in Koh Samui

Overall good experience, staff were always friendly and helpful. Easy enough to communicate in English. The resort is split into two one beachside the other mountainside. If you stay on the mountainside expect to cross the busy main road everyday. There are two pools one on each side but the main pool has a bit of shade. There were a few restaurants around the resort but nothing to write home about. You will need to adventure out to get better eats and the beaches as well. The beach is OK, sand is abit rough and rocky but you can walk way out from shore. The room was large and spacious enough for my family.

Great Solo stay!

Really good. FYI rooms with mountain view are totally apart behind the main hotel building with main pool and beach area. Spa is great. Buffet breakfast too. Happy hours and night shows ( fire acrobats... amazing!) You can book tours to Ko Tao and make reservations to great cliff sea view restaurants for dinner. Highly recommend Novotel spa resort!
