My stay at the Novotel Karon Beach was truly delightful. The hotel is strategically located at the quieter end of Karon Beach, which means restful days by the sea. I found the rooms to be spacious and clean, and the staff were unbelievably helpful. The dining options were generally good, although breakfast could use some improvement in terms of efficiency. The facilities like pools were enjoyable, but some maintenance is needed in certain areas. Overall, a lovely resort with great potential but with a few areas that could enhance the experience.

We had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the grounds are beautiful and the pools are enjoyable, the check-in process was quite stressful due to misunderstandings regarding bedding for families. The food was priced like Western restaurants, which was a bit on the higher side. Overall, it's a lovely spot for lounging by the pool, but the safety issues around the pool area need urgent attention.

Our stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The initial room we received was poorly maintained, making it uncomfortable, but once we switched, things improved significantly. The dining options were diverse and tasty, and the service was notable, especially from the management. However, the pool facilities seriously need attention, which impacted our overall experience. Location-wise, it's convenient to beaches and local amenities, but there are better choices nearby.

We had a great week at the hotel, enjoying its beautiful grounds and spacious plunge pool room, perfect for our family of five. The access to the beach was easy, and we loved alternating between pool days and beach days. However, while the room was nice, the state of the pools was quite disappointing, with some areas needing urgent repairs. Overall, it was a wonderful resort for families, but a few improvements could make it even better.
