The hotel is clean and the hospitality is excellent. The staff Tina recommended good places for us to visit and eat. Location wise will require to climb on top or walk down the steep road, however they have shuttle service every half an hour to kata beach and they provide beach towel as well. They have kids club and pool but the pool is 1.2 depth hence will require floats for younger children.
There is no halal section or separation for halal in the hotel breakfast, food choice are limited. And the surrounding area require to walk abit of distance to find a halal friendly restaurant
Kata beach and the area is good and family friendly, alot shops to walk around.

We were here on a family trip for three nights and chose this hotel as it is advertised as kids friendly. The brand not only did not meet the minimum standards, the service and staff was very bad.
1. We were checking in late at 7 pm and when I sent the email about the same, the guy responded with entire information about check out
2. Rooms were comfortable but few basic amenities were missing or not functioning
3. There is 1 small lift for 5 storeys with capacity of 5 people! And lift was not working for 4-5 hours and had to carry my baby all the way up to 5th floor multiple times.
4. Kids play area is very average and when we requested for play station remotes the staff kept on using delaying tactics instead of giving a straight answer
5. Worst was the breakfast buffet and food experience. Food and desserts is very average. There is hardly anything for vegetarians and usually at all hotels they make something where vegetarian food isn’t available. At Novotel, we weren’t given this option and when requested staff rudely said no, except on one occasion.
6. Water play area is good
7. Shuttle service to kata beach is available but no information is provided before hand.

The breakfast could have been better. The restaurants outside offer better food than what they have there.

The hotel is located on top of super steep hill. That’s a great minus. We ended up paying 200baht every time to go on top of the hill when going back! There is shuttle but every half and hr.
The breakfast is below average! Not much for Muslims travellers. Taste wise fall flat!
They provided beach towel but no carriers like most hotels do. Not beach front.

Great hotel away from the hustle but still close enough to everything. It’s definitely a hotel I’d go back to and with the family. I’d like to mention hotel management especially Massimo. He goes out of his way to meet and greet his patrons. Daily free shuttle to beach , swim up bar , large rooms

Great food, service and facilities. Located on a steep hill, which makes walking back from anywhere a little difficult.

Do not stay here! Super high and dangerous hill to go to the main road you'll end up paying 200bht to return to your hotel. Rooms are super moist. Water all over the floor because of the moisture. Very outdated rooms. Phone didn't work. Maid opened the door without knocking at 9am. Worst hotel I've stayed in for a while. Around the 2-3 star max old hotel level. 4-5 star is a joke. Staff were nice though.

Excellent service from both check in staff (didn't get her name but I think it was ploy) who escorted us all the way to our room and the check out staff (Grace) who kindly also extended my check out time by half hour.
I got the ocean view room which was on the top floor, and the view was breathtaking. Good to enjoy the ocean without heading down to the beach.
Hotel is also very near the main kata area with lots of good food and massages nearby. Downside is that the hotel is on a very steel hill but it's not too far of a walk, just treat it as an after meal workout, and for the view, it's totally worth it!
