Mandarin lodge By victor

Lovely little Lodge with a pool, bar and good location! Rooms were nice with aircon, we had a living room area too. Drinking water provided daily. Rooms could have been a little more clean however, lots of dust everywhere.

False advertising wasted all of our time stating on their booking platforms such as booking.com that pets are allowed then they tell us they're not. Thank God we checked first instead of arriving after an hours long journey with no place to stay. Update to the owner's response: That's incorrect. Firstly booking.com offers the ability to specify pets are either allowed or not allowed, which is how customers will obviously filter their search, hence why you waste people's time. Furthermore, it's also not mentioned at all in the description. Finally, what a strange and arbitrary cutoff, 7kg. So 8kg is just too much? What a strange idea to discriminate against pets based on weight and then also falsely advertise that all pets are allowed. Do you also discriminate against your guests by weight? What a strange idea.

Location is pretty good. Pool lovely. Quiet location. Close to eateries and short walk to markets. Pleasant staff.

We found the Mandarin when we were walking around the area looking for alternative accommodation as what we originally booked didn’t meet our needs. |We were able to secure a superior room with air and fan. The pool was a big plus for us as we used it daily. |The bed was not the greatest though and rather hard and the bedding had seem better days. But we were provided four pillows as requested so grateful for that. |The cleaning staff were excellent and very friendly. Reception staff very helpful when we were looking for a new hotel and let us view the property. |This hotel has the potential of being exceptional with a bit of elbow grease by the owner. |Room 17 toilet was built on a platform about 18” high. This was quite dangerous without a grab bar. I suspect the reason was a plumbing issue, so again, with a bit of maintenance the hotel would be great. |We liked the location as it was walkable to Hua Hin beach and the 100 baht beach chairs. A kettle is provided.

I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I ended up there randomly and this will stay up there of all the places I had the chance to stay in for my travel. This is my go to in Hua hin if you want a good accomodation on the cheaper side

We had a very nice stay here. Friendly staff, clean rooms. Excellent location within walking distance of both the beach and the night market. Lots of dining options nearby too. We also rented a motorcycle which was in very good condition. Would definitely stay here again, fantastic value for money:)

It’s very poor and not best situated. You have to be 5ft tall to be able to walk up the stairs without hitting your head not ideal when the bathroom is downstairs. The pictures of the pool are not accurate. Better places near and cheaper. Cat mess outside my door this morning. Because of the stairs I had to sleep on single bed I’ve slept on more comfortable camp beds. This is the first time I’ve made a bad comment.

I booked one of the cheaper rooms near the reception. My AC unit took 2-3 hours to get my room cool. It really never worked well. My room was a tiny little box, and not too clean. I liked the ambiance of the place though, and I think a bigger room would have offered a better experience. They certainly looked nicer. Decent pool, but not as nice as the photos.||The breakfast didn't look very good, so we never ate there. In fact I never saw anyone eating it. We walked down the street to another hotel and had breakfast there.||The location is great, and it is right near the water on a quaint street. The night market is only a few blocks away as well, and we ate there every night.
