After researching and reading positive reviews I decided to stay here as it was also walking distance to the train station. The staff were friendly and helpful. My room was on the 10th floor with views over the city. It was spacious enough, very clean and the bed was very comfortable for sleeping. Lighting was good. My only drawback was it was explained to me that the aircon was automatic. I had to wait until I was ready for sleep (so as not to lose power connection) and then remove the security card to turn off the aircon as by then the room was like a fridge. Maybe I just misunderstood. Hot water shower no problem. Tip: always pack your toothbrush.

“Basic hotel, Good location”

Firstly I would like to say that out of all 3 hotels I stayed in Thailand, this hotel has the most fluffiest pillow and comfortable bed! Unfortunately it was just a one night stay for us. Amenities and breakfast were basic but great location close to the morning Kimyong market and night market at Lee Gardens. No toothbrush provided here though.

Hubby and I just wanted a short vacation is southern Thailand without too much hassle and traveling. We chose to stay in city center and required a comfortable reasonable priced hotel which was easy access to the two night hawkers, temples and the four famous markets which sold local products and wares. We found VL Hatyai after reading the numerous reviews. Our room was on the 11th floor with a great view of the city and it was spacious and clean. The twin beds and pillows were very comfortable and a kettle for making coffee was provided. A large TV with various English, Chinese and Thai channels were provided and we even had a fridge and hair dryer which were unusual for the price we paid. Due to the comfort we decided to stay 5 nights and ventured to tour outskirts of Hatyai on day trips to the Floating Market and Stainless Steel Temple.

“Dated but comfortable”

The hotel is large and a very dated but clean and comfortable. We booked a balcony but had to carry out the big heavy chairs outside so we could enjoy it. A small table and chairs out there would have been useful. They seem to be upgrading areas like the reception which is lovely and modern so hope… more

The hotel is large and a very dated but clean and comfortable. We booked a balcony but had to carry out the big heavy chairs outside so we could enjoy it. A small table and chairs out there would have been useful. They seem to be upgrading areas like the reception which is lovely and modern so hopefully in time they will do the rest. We booked this hotel because someone on TripAdvisor had said the breakfast buffet was the best they’d had in Thailand but unfortunately tourism had dropped off when we arrived and we were just offered a set menu from the a la carte menu which comprised of a drink, toast with butter and jam, fresh fruit and a main. Which was perfectly adequate but no cereals and only 2 fruits (watermelon and one other). It was way too much for us and we wasted so much which I hate doing. Even when I asked for a small portion it was still too much. As I said it was adequate but a buffet would had had a lot more choice. Can’t be helped I guess if you don’t have the guests. The shower was hot and good. The bedding clean. Staff were attentive and polite.

“Well located but slightly noisy”

Lobby looks modern and spacious. Rooms are comfortable enough and also clean if slightly dated. Shower has very good water pressure. Downside, our room was quite noisy- big dual carriageway outside and single glazing even the AC did not drown the traffic noise.
