Samui First House Hotel  

We loved this hotel. We were only supposed to stay for two nights but kept going to other hotels and then leaving them to come back. The staff found this most amusing. The staff were great, the room was fab with air conditioning and confortable beds. The hotel is right on the beach but on the quieter side. Its far enough away from the centre to be quite but its only a short walk or tuk tuk drive to the lively centre. The pool was lovely. There are loads of places to eat right by the Hotel. We will be going back there next year.

Location,has private beach,not to big,food very good

We liked every thing

Our stay at Samui First House Hotel was lovley. I would rate the room we stayed in 10/10 and was pretty much perfect in all aspects, spacious, very clean, air conditioned and fantasically located. Me and my partner are travelling and wouldnt normally spend that much on a hotel,( worked out just over 20 english pounds ) but was completley worth it and treated it as a holiday, would definetley return and reccomend to all!!

The only thing I would have neggative to say about Samui First House would be that I didn't expect to have to pay to use the gym and was not stated on booking advertisment site and the free wifi wasnt working very well throughout our stay, however we did not complain of this and if we had of done then Im certain that all efforts would have been made to correct this.

Quiet location near the beach and a short walk into the action if you wanted it.

We were allocated a room in the old block on arrival which has an awful view of a run down building, the rooms were also a bit tired. When I spoke to reception though they moved us into the pool block into a much nicer room and we were quite happy to pay the extra £10/ day.

The seaside and the location

That's the 2nd time we come to this hotel but the last one. We were disappointed by the room, they gave us another one the next day but it wasn't much better. The price was interesting so we can't complain too much. The woman who rents the scooters is a thief and the manager is even worst. The first time they made us pay for a flat tire and this time for some scratches that weren't ours. If you rent a scooter be ready to pay more than the initial price!

Been to samui 5 times, Just back from a week long stay at Samui First House, location is great, at the south end of Chewang main street, walk to all but away from it ! breakfast is good, some rooms are updated some are not, the main bldg has the not so nice rooms, the other bldg has the nicer rooms, good ac, poor tv and channels, no elevator - 4 floors, best private like beach - rent scooter or book trips right there, paid 1750bht a night including the breakfast - good value for your money in Samui - needs to improve but I will be back !

No elevator, some rooms need to be updated ! tv is very old and very poor cable chanels

Do not stay at this hotel. We had a standard room (looked at a superior room, it was the same). It had no window. The view was into the bathroom. The window in the bathroom was looking onto a concrete wall. The room had an awful smell of mould. The tap to the hotwater was loose and didn´t work. We asked to change rooms but the staff was not intressted. The hallway to the room was pitch black with no daylight. It was like an undeground cellar. It was the worst hotel I ever stayd at. We booked 8 nights, styed for one. We foud a loveley hotel, for less money closer to town. It is half an hours walk into Chaweng. The beach was dirty and packed with people. We would not stay there even if they paid us.

Reasonably quiet at night, away from the noise in Chaweng

Reception staff was unhelpful, the hotel didn't look like it did in the pictures. The room was on the ground floor and the back door didn't close properly, shower was weak in pressure, tv didn't work. The star rating of this hotel is definitely wrong. If you suffer from any respiratory ailments don't stay there full of humidity and fungus.

Nice pool area, helpful staff

Rooms are musty and smell damp

Nice big rooms and beach is very close by, about 1 minute walk through resort and you are on chaweng noi beach.

The location is too far away from central chaweng. We are young and have no problem walking to places but this was a good 30 minutes into the central area. We ended up getting a tuk tuk into chaweng central most evenings and hiring a motor bike to get around and into chaweng during the day. We stayed for 9 nights and found the cleaning not up to scratch. The surfaces were never wiped down and floors very poorly sweeped. We were there in Dec and the beach was extremely rough, red flags indicating 'not safe to swim' were up the entire time, saw people being knocked off their feet at ankle depth.

The room was clean. The staff friendly.

We had a room with no balconny, so our view was a grey wall outside. Far away from the centre of chaweng. Must take tuk tuk.

Great rooms overlooking the pool and a private beach.

The breakfast wasn't great for the price of the rooms

Absolute brilliant place to stay in Samui! Have been here before. Nearer to centre of Chaweng you will be kept awake by the disco beats, but in First house, which is around 15 min walk to centre, it is quiet and a beautiful beach. Staff is so friendly, rooms are great, both standards and superior. I paid only 1000 bath and it is so worth it.
