Pho Rai Wan Hotel Guide - 4 Stars Hotels in Pho Rai Wan, Phetchaburi

"We arrived here for a five night stay, we booked a villa next to the pool. Check in was ok but not what we’ve come to expect in Thailand, no welcome drink or cold towel here, or even a smile. We arrived about 45 minutes before check in time, but had to wait as our room was still being cleaned, so we waited by the pool. The pool is good, plenty of loungers and parasols. Our villa was ok, the bed is quite low, the pillows though are exceptionally hard. Good shower, bathroom amenities provided are quite basic, the bathroom did have a drain smell too. We thought we’d try out the restaurant the day we arrived, we soon realised this was a mistake, I’ve never waited so long for a club sandwich and beer, and when it eventually arrived, the sandwich was half the size served in other places, this put us off using the restaurant again. Breakfast was quite basic, others have commented that the breakfast was mainly Thai, but I don’t know anyone who eats pasta carbonara for breakfast, there is some stewed strong filter coffee, fruit, orange juice, bread for toasting, although not all the toasters are working, eggs that appear to have been fried hours ago, along with cold pancakes. The staff aren’t particularly friendly apart from the girls cleaning the rooms, who we rewarded each morning with a small gift and a tip. Just so others know the ‘no smoking ‘ isn’t enforced, having had our air space marred by the smoker in the villa next door as she obviously couldn’t read the sign."

"Room was good size, only thing was bath tap handle kept falling off"
