Angie Morris 2009-06-06	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Our stay at Samui First House was not the best. Although the location is really good right next to the beach and close to Chaweng Road the hotel itself is in need of a good clean. The room was very budget, the sheets didn t get changed during out stay, the air con was leaking, there were ants everywhere and staff were very unhelpfull and not friendly. I would not recommend this hotel.	Sawadee.com made it very easy and simple to book. Great service.
Naphatsawan Winyuwichaikun 2009-05-01	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach good it s near the beach, breakfast was also nice, the staffs were kind and tried to help. only the standard room was not so clean and quite old, but it was ok!	very good!! i will use Sawadee again on my next trip
Inge Breathnach 2009-04-26	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach this hotel is generally clean and efficient, however when we arrived we did have to change rooms because there were some lice-type insects on the beds, so we were quickly moved. They made no offer of discount or compensation for this. The best thing about the hotel was the pancake man on the corner! Location is ok, we rented a motorbike anyway to get into Chaweng as its a long walk in the heat. It is also quite quiet.
M. MATHYS 2009-04-21	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Hotel is o.k.: quiet, friendly staff, price is o.k.. I would come back again. I got a good room. Not all the rooms seem to be good, some have no view - you can only see the next Building. I had to do check out at 12.00 o clock. For the shower thei gave me a dirty toilet-room without aircon or fan... - I would recommend the hotel to give the guests a nice room to do the shower before traveling home - this costs not much but would give the guests a better value. ALL IN ALL: If you want a cheap, clean room with aircon and good access to Chaweng and Chaweng Noi Beach, then is this hotel a good Choice.	No Problems.
David Watson 2009-04-11	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Pretty all round good hotel. The room was good, maybe the aircon was a bit too cold would be my only complaint, there didnt seem to be an in between setting. I would definately come back here though.	Everything worked out perfectly
cooper leonard brian /paul west 2009-03-27	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach service was good at the reception with very helpfull staff in all the three days was very enjoyable	exceleante
Alan Howden 2009-03-21	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Hotel is nice enough- pretty far down the main strip of Chaweng but still on the beach and with a decent pool. Room was nice (though aircon didnt seem to work too well, and it would have been nice to have a kettle in the room) staff were friendly and generally we were happy with our stay	Perfect, no problems
Mr Scott Cameron 2009-03-15	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach front of house staff very friendly and spoke good english, which makes all the difference, the rooms were really clean and mini bar was full with some complimentary drinks on arival, rooms are very modern and tastefully decorated, pool was lovely and breakfast was ok. i d say my overall stay was really good but it was the most expensive place i stayed in my time in thailand, but would recommend it if your not budgeting.
John 2009-03-09	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach great value for price. Located at a quiet end of chaweng beach. Staff very helpful.	Fine
TSANG-YEIN JHONNY 2009-03-08	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach correct for the price some people of the staff has problem for understanding english but generally in Koh Samui lot of people has some problem with english	no problem ! good agency !
Reshef S. Gidon 2009-03-05	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach One of the many fine memories of Thailand will be our stay at the Fist House Hotel, in Chaweng beach, Samui.

David Rupert Raisor 2009-01-26	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Clean Rooms and restaurant. Friendly & helpful staff. Great breakfast buffet. Beach was beautiful and ideal for walking & swimming. Plenty of free chairs & umbrellas on beach. Private.
ian williams 2009-01-23	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach First House.. first class for the money. well positioned away from center of chaweng, but close enough to walk.Hotel facilities good,stayed in deluxe room,well appointed, clean and everything worked.Would have no hesitation recommending.Many thanks to reception captain Lek..	For the computer impaired like myself, it was a breeze.
Charleen Munns 2009-01-08	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Stayed here for 5 days, great staff (they upgraded us into a bigger room for free!)lovely pool very clean & rooms very clean 2, close to the beach but a bit of a walk from the main shopping centre, enjoyed my stay here & will stay here again, although the restaurant could be a bit cheaper	Great
Esha Nehru 2008-12-21	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very good location, nice hotel, nice and friendly staff...	very efficient
Wrigley 2008-11-21	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Well, where do I start? What a find, its a gem for sure! I have to start with the staff, because thats where it starts, with a heartfelt welcome, they can t do enough for you, friendly, polite, helpful, doesn t do them justice really. Ideal if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of the centre but a nice walk in when you want it or a short bus ride for 50baht. The rooms were very clean, spacious enough, everything you need. Breakfast was fine, like most others. The pool was a good size, and I don t think the pictures on sawadee do it justice. And definitely the best end of the beach by a mile. This hotel provides exactly what it says Luxury Budget .	What can I say, we booked 4 hotels through Sawadee for this trip, 4 out of 4, perfect! Thankyou again x
Mr Kennedy 2008-10-04	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach The beach here is so much cleaner and nicer than the main part of chaweng and a hell of a lot quieter .The breakfast is average but OK still. The rooms are modern and well maintained and very clean.We enjoyed our stay here but it is about a 15min walk to the center of chaweng.Not a problem if you enjoy walking,or hire a scooter.its only 50 baht to get the truck into town anyway if u cant be stuffed.I would stay here again....	.........Never a problem ........
Janet Thorngaard 2008-09-23	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach We liked the hotel very much. It was a good hotel with a good service all over where we cam. We will use Samui First House Hotel again. Very good beach,good thai food,nich family room.We are a family on 5 persons but we were missing a dvd player for the kids, that was all we were missing on Samui First House Hotel. Thank you for now and I hope to be back next year. Best regards Fam. Thorngaard,Denmark
Nicola Zanon 2008-09-17	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Beautiful hotel in a good position very quiet and not far from the Chaweng Center.	ok
Porta Stefano Guido 2008-08-27	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach located just outside from the center of chaweng in a quite position has the most beautiful beach of the island. Ask for deluxe room that are located in the main building. The staff is always very kind and lovely. The restaurant is really good and cheap.	excellent, they organize everything perfectly
Dr. Lovse Thomas 2008-08-21	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach very good hotel in the beginning of the chaweng noi beach, water is clear the beach is fine but there are a lot of peole there in high season. The hotel itself has standard rooms (just for sleeping but still enough space) and superior rooms (very much space), The pool is nice service is perfect.Have a nice trip
Renee Provencher 2008-08-01 until 2008-08-03	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach great place to stay. close to the beach, massages, restaurants, shopping, and bars. staff was very friendly and eager to help. only complaint (if you could call it that)was the small room size. overall, it was a good stay.	easy
Clinton Marc Broedelet 2008-07-28 until 2008-07-31	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Rooms were nice but the bathroom was not so great. We enjoyed the close vacinity to the beach and the service at the hotel was good.	very easy and booking was correct when we got to the hotel
matthew arnold 2008-07-27 until 2008-07-29	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach very clean, well run hotel. it is a bit away from chaweng s main beach and the shopping strip. a taxi is definately needed to get to chawengs main area.	very good service
Samui Traveller 2008-07-15 until 2008-07-23	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very nice hotel for the price. The pool is great and rooms clean with hot water. The service staff could have been friendlier but it was still quite ok. Breakfast was good.	No problems except when first arrived to hotel they didn t have double bed room available as booked. The second day they transfered us to the room we wanted.
Denitza Baltcheva 2008-07-02 until 2008-07-15	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very good hotel for a resonable price.Friendly staff.Perfect location -close to the beach and away from noisy streets.Tasty multi choise breakfast,clean rooms and pool.This is out thirth stay in First House Hotel and I think we will come back.Moreover we already recommended it to our friends.	Easy and secured booking through sawadee.com
Rebekah Dawn Berkhout 2008-06-23 until 2008-06-30	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach The hotel location wasnt ideal but still good, it costs about 100 BHT to get into town. There was a beach right at the door which was gorgeous and not too busy! The rooms were really clean but the beds were really hard. The staff were really helpful and the free breakfast was excellent! Overall a great hotel for the price paid!	Perfect, not a problem
Fam Nilsson 2008-06-22 until 2008-07-06	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very nice and a great choice especially for familys with children. One of the best (if not the best) beach, Chaweng Noi, 50 meters from the hotel. A little bit outside Chaweng center, just a short ride, 1-2 min with taxi. Big deluxerooms with very good cleaning. Great breakfast and very nice staff.	Very good
Glenn Robinson 2008-05-30 until 2008-06-06	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach This is the 2nd time we ve stayed here. That should say it all really. You never come back to a place twice if you ve had a bad experience. Rooms clean, hot water, convenient to beach. Staff are very pleasent and hospitable. will be coming back again when we visit Samui	8 Years we ve been using Sawadee.com andnever had a problem. Wish all travel services would be as professional as they are.
Low Ming Hua 2008-05-26 until 2008-05-28	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very clean and good in service.
Ann Catherine Fridlund 2008-04-21 until 2008-05-11	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach I can recommend if your have child and lika a quiet place to stay. Swiminpool clean and big enough(obs. no baby pool) Its only 3 min walk to beach and its wery nice. Can also recomend a little Thai restuarant on left side on beach. he can make a fish barbecu in evening if you order 1 day before. If you like shopping and bars you may book clooser to city town. We have a great holiday and rooms its great.Breakfast is ok and stabs is very friendley. Little problem is that they not can much english. I will come back. Thanks from Mrs Catherine Fridlund Manager Mrs Tang is very nice and serviceminded.	Fast and in order. But the free transfer didnt show up arrival day. But when we check out First house was friendly and offer us free transfer.
Giorgio Feroci 2008-04-14 until 2008-04-20	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Beautiful and very confortable the room Grand Deluxe. Very good the room service. Good the restorant but the service is to slow.	Very efficient the booking service
Bogdashina S-A, Russia 2008-04-13 until 2008-04-25	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Excellent hotel, successful arrangement of hotel in a small bay, a beach and the sea all was wonderful. The personnel and service at a good level. Any problem is solved instantly. Some monotonous breakfast, but in fact not behind it go on islands, in fact so? Thanks for patience of the personnel to our night sorties to pool!!!	Great sevice, never any problems
MOHD NASIR BIN MOIDEN 2008-04-13 until 2008-04-16	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Perfect hotel for me and my wife vacation. Very near to beautiful beaches Chaweng Beach ((5 minute walk) an near town ((15 minute walk).Very friendly hotel staff. Hotel have big and clean room, nice pool and internet facility also near by hotel have a lot of tour/trip/rent bike agency, so convenient. Sure will book this hotel for my next trip to Koh Samui.	The best and accurate, 5 star service
Joseph William Gonsalves 2008-04-06 until 2008-04-10	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach I was really happy with this hotel. It was exactly as described on this website. The hotel is clean, great breakfast in the morning, good food for lunch & dinner, wide spectrum of food to select from, provides chairs and umbrellas on the beach. The beach hut bar was key for end of the day beers and sunsets and the beach side massages are worth it. Nothing like watching the waves come in as you get massaged. The staff doesn t speak great English (why would they) but good enough to help me along. They really impressed me my last day. I slept through my wakeup call and the front desk guy came to my room, woke me up, checked me out, and held my taxi so I could make my flight. You could walk to the center of Cha Wang but for 50 bat you can get a taxi or tuk tuk into town. I would return and recommend to people looking for a cheap hotel. FYI, I was traveling solo and still met people to hang and drink with.	Reviews were accurate, booking was easy, impressed with the suggested places to stay when your first selection was booked. Thought the 400 bat was way too expensive for a shuttle service.
Wade Herring 2008-04-05 until 2008-04-08	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Not bad pretty standard a bit like your standard spanish hotel. Toilet bork but was fixed in the hour. Breakfast ok. Pool nice	Excellent
Bjorn 2008-04-03 until 2008-04-06	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very happy with the everything at the hotel. The staff are really friendly and will do anything to help you out. The beach is a minute walk from the hotel and the rooms where clean! Would definetly stay there again!	Excellent!
Gaudet Moise P 2008-03-29 until 2008-04-05	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Hotel and services were great. I was gone most of the time, but came back regulary to get out of the heat. Quiet and spacious. Front desk was very helpfull. Location is great if you rent a bike or car. Your own corner of the beach as well. I was there for a week. Would go back.
Karina Pimenova 2008-03-29 until 2008-04-03	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Location is far from the center and buzz. Main building provides good deluxe rooms (good for 3-star hotel I d say) Some very beautiful inner yard with pool. The beach is good, and it is less then 5min from the main building. Personnel are extremely kind and helpful (although their English could be better) Restaurant food is delicious although not very cheap. I’d recommend to eat at the hotel ‘cause once we had dinner in the center of Chaweng at some sidewalk restaurant and got poisoned badly after that. So watch out! Anyways staying at hotel was a good thing to remember. I’d recommend staying in deluxe rooms on this hotel.	a lot of feedback - I like it
Ulrika - Sweden 2008-03-22 until 2008-03-25	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach The hotel is located near a small beach and have a few free sun beds for hotel guests. Otherwise the location is quite far from the main area of Chaweng, about 15-25 minutes walk. The hotel looks much better on the site than it actually was. The standard rooms are normal size but with very small bathrooms and NO balcony or safety box in room for the standard rooms. Please be aware that the bed is very very hard!!! Standard rooms are all located in another building near the main building shown on the pictures. There is a small gym located in the same building, only 150 baht for 1 hour. Breafast was ok and the pool area as well ( only a few sun beds though)If no pool is needed for your stay I would instead of paying 1400-1600 baht per night for this room, recommend the Colibri guesthouse (street, Soi Colibri) with balcony, big and clean rooms and soft nice beds for only 700 baht per night. However then breakfast is not included but its closer to main beach and shopping.	Worked excellent, think though that the confirmation emails could be clearer.
Philip Brincat 2008-03-04 until 2008-03-07	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach I stayed in Samui First House Hotel with a friend for 3 days as we were island hopping. I had read positive reviews of the hotel, and indeed it was well worth the money we paid for this hotel. The room was clean, although no elevators. But what made our stay most enjoyable was the staff. They were terrific and very sweet. Made us feel at home. Also nice pool and adjoining beach. I recommend this hotel to anyone.	Very efficient booking service.
Chirag Master 2008-02-29 until 2008-03-02	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach I had booked a standard room & none of the standard room is facing the beach. I think they should clarrify this in their sites which only talk abt that the hotel is on the beach. Also the staff is not at all co operative because we had to check out early in the morning & they ended up giving a breakfast box with just 2 pcs of bread. But when they refused to adjust the breakfast the day I checked in. The Aircon in my room leaks every morning as soon as you shut down. They made us wait for 1 hr in the reception because we reached there at 8 am since we were travelling in bus.	The booking service was quite excellent and fast.
Amanda Hendry 2007-12-28 until 2008-01-07	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Hotel was very clean and spacious, towels and bedding changed daily and room cleaned everyday. Staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Loction wasn t too bad but the walk into the centre of town was a bit dark at night. All in all it was a very good hotel and would definitely stay here again.	Easy and quick in responding with availability
Susanne Olsson-Andersson 2007-12-09 until 2007-12-19	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach We were very pleased with our stay at Samui First House Hotel. We were 5 people who stayed in a family room that was very spacious and nice. Cleaning and service where excellent. The restaurant served very fresh and well tasty food. The staff where kind and helpful although not so god at speaking English but they always tried their best to help us. The beach where only a 5 minutes walk from the hotel and as we found out during our stay, one of the finest and cleanest beaches on the east side of Koh Samui. A hotel to recommend.	Very good and easy booking and payment through sawadee.
Dazel Arellano Domanillo 2007-11-27 until 2007-12-02	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Were from Australia and Britain and we loved this place. Great hotel. The beach over the beaches is very nice. Next time I m going to stay at the bungalows. The staff are wonderfully helpful and the rooms are nice. The dinners are pretty good as well, breakfast is OK. I highly recommend First House.	Sawadee.com
Wayne Jordan 2007-11-04 until 2007-11-11	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach i stayed here with my wife and 2 daughters, the room was the family accomidation and suited us vary well. the staff were excellent and freindly, breakfast was also a good variety. the beach is about 50 metres from the hotel and is is most probaly to best beach on Samui. the hotel is about 15min walk to the main drag but i reccomend no matter were you stay in samui to get a motor bike, scooter. we hired 2 for the time that we stayed there and dinked our kids (6 and 8) every were also going around the entire island, it is the best way to get around and no haggling for taxi or tuk tuk. all in all i would recomend Samui first house as a place to stay. well priced and located not to far from the busy main street at chewang but far enough that you can have peicefull stay.	No problems at all, good email comunications
Johnny Ryttersson 2007-09-25 until 2007-09-30	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach Very friendly staff (maybe the best about this hotel) Hotel is just next to the city sour which some times smells a lot. Hotel massage very good (also for the kids) Pool area good and beach okay. Room were also okay for the price and clean. Live music was good but needs a little bigger repertoire if you are staying more than a few days. Food was also good, but not great. City was very much the same all over, but managed to find a great tailor, but not much more good deals. Everything seems a little more expensive at Chaweng than Bangkok. However if you are looking for tailor go to Big Boss tailor, he is very good. I bought 3 suits and wife 1 dress a top and got some dresses from home changed. All fitting perfect and very good quality stitching. Give him this reference number (1575) and you will get a good deal and get yourself a set of suit you will be satisfied with. Remember to say hello from meƒº All in All a great stay at a cheap an quite nice hotel And ones more¡K. The staff¡K give those people a raise they really deserves it.	good
Sabia Shlomo 2007-09-23 until 2007-09-28	Samui First House Hotel, Chaweng Beach great,fantastic hotel,very pleasent,beutiful beach in a quite place and near the center.the staff is geate,wanted and helping to solve any problem.run to book in this hotel.	exelent.
