We really enjoyed our stay at Kata Palm! The hotel has a wonderful thai look and feel!
As we notified that it was our honeymoon, we were greeted with beautifully decorated bed and spa discount for my wife. The one thing we didn't like was that the breakfast area was fully open and witout a/c. read more

The resort is ca100m from the lively main street. Away. Of the nightly action one gets however nothing with. All the rooms are the tropical pool area, which once around the hotel complex winds turned. The chairs and sunscreens are absolutely in need of an overhaul, as well as the ageing hotel. The rooms however clean and spacious with a shower and bathtub. The breakfast is american with the europeans unusual hot food. The cleanliness could be better. The beach is about 10 minutes away on foot. It is but also shuttle bus from the hotel offered. If happiness is ... a bit on your own something to do the rent a scooter on site. Beware left traffic. The nightlife is colorful and restaurants are sufficiently available. The city's glitzy nightlife in patong stat. The drive with the tuk tuk is 400 Bath= 10 Euro too expensive. Conclusion to the hotel, there are better. read more

The Kata Palm resort is not a beach hotel. It is somewhat outdated but not the worst!
The biggest problem in the Kata Palm is the lack of friendliness of the staff. Apparently all annoyed, bored and unwelcoming. Itself for breakfast smiled nobody. Only the cleaning ladies were a notable exception! We have never in Thailand experienced, therefore the hotel we can also not recommend!
The noise the street you get on the complex nothing and in spite of the size it is in the whole complex surprisingly quiet. The guests are predominantly russian, australian and scandinavian guests, only little ... german. Transportation to and from the hotel are not in top condition, but reasonably alright and sufficient.
Our check-in was a similar catastrophe as from 'Gaby & Thomas' described. We arrived at 9 o'clock in the hotel and should until 14 o'clock waiting for the room. When we after a locker room or air-conditioned waiting area asked, one led us to the pool restaurant! Great-further sweating and no shower in sight!
After breakfast questioning, we were told, that this 350 Bhat (10 Euro) costs, since we had not yet checked in could have been. (later we found out, that the hotel-breakfast never this price justifies).
We did eat out and could our room then at 13 o'clock relate. What a 'erfreulicher' start in the hotel read more

The hotel is actually right on the main street but you get in the hotel anything with. Absolute peace and quiet. There are 2 pools in a beautiful tropical garden. We stayed in the older part of the hotel accommodated. The room smelled musty! The mattress was quite durchgespürt and the cushions were rock hard.! The bathroom was alright! We had a bath which we shower used. Despite shower curtain was after showering the bathroom underwater.! At least the water pressure was alright! While we were there, there were different nationalities in the hotel but mainly russians. Average ... age was mixed! read more

The Kata Palm resort is a good hotel, in the a week vacation to spend can. It is not our favorites, but we would stay there again.
The rooms are clean and daily well cleaned.
The pool area is really nice and clean!
The dishes were in larger choice at the breakfast available. The quality is however unfortunately rather bad. Plus a staff, that is the case, such as the coffee tastes. Very bland!
Nevertheless a recommendable hotel. read more

When we arrived at the Kata Palm resort, we still thought: wow, what a great in thai style designed reception area. The first ernüchertung followed by at the check-in. The relatively dull receptionist checked us bored a, no information about breakfast times, general information on the area, etc. Almost wordlessly she gave us our room cards in the hand and of al we our booked superior room entered was the vacation mood dwindles gone. The room smelled extremely musty, moldy and was completely damp. Everything in the room was damp, the bathroom mold on the walls. Back to the front ... desk we asked for another room. The nights room that you were shown was damp and musty. The highlight in 2. room was the abgetaute minibar, with delicious mold, on the melting water sponge. Back to the front desk. There was no other room available. One vertöstete us and after 3 hours! Wait they showed us a deluxe room in the newer part the hotel. Happy and grateful to the waiting time we thought, that we finally unpack may, until us the nice lady told us, that the booked rate of 85 Euro a night nor 15 Euro a night impact in bar should pay. Then was also slow our patience to end. We have explained to you, that it is not our fault if, when the complex was fully booked and we-if you were a reasonable superior room can offer-a höherklassiges room without an extra charge should offer. After endless discussions told us uncompromising with: either pay or from the mildew room! We do not have that so ever in a hotel experienced. After the long journey and endless waiting time we paid the extra to finally the vacation can start. When paying hellte also immediately the mine our speculating on. In spite of the great hotel in the hotel we want a fair, factual review. Likewise, we would definitely say, that we should not 'nitpicker' and not every flaw search. But for a rate of 100 Euro a night you can but a certain standard expected. Because of the many positive experiences in other hotels the same category in Thailand we were really disappointed. read more

The location is almost perfect. To the beach one runs about 10 minutes, which had the advantage that one can in the supermarket fast to pack something. The hotel itself is in a good used condition. For the money it was reasonable for us. You could clear with a little bit of color make more out of it. The staff are for thai standards very unfriendly (i know from Thailand so not). Rooms are also ok. In the minibar costs for example the beer as little as in the supermarket. read more

We had a pool room with direct pool access leased. Own loungers on the terrace and a really nice equipped room with beautiful bath. Pool area is great laid out. Check in ran fast and smoothly, you can tell that you are in a larger hotel is, the staff are friendly, but it was quite anonymous and the typical thai hospitality leaves something to be desired. It is about 10 minutes to the beach, described as from previous guests, on the road along, at supermarkets past, so you can as well, with cool drinks supply. The beach itself is very ... nice, while we were there with high waves what we found super. We were before in kamala beach, on koh lanta, there was the sea very quiet. Outside of the hotel everything there that you need.
A instruction to audience on Kata beach, but the hotel can but nothing. There were tons of russians locally, to Russian billboards and menus. If you like it, ok., we have can do without. There are certainly still other beach sections on phuket where it may not be so extreme.
The hotel we could definitely recommend and is a small oasis in the hustle and bustle in front of the hotel! read more

I can highly recommend the hotel: the room is classic thai-style furnished, the balcony is big enough, the bed linen had from time to time a small hole, but it was clean. Some towels already seen better days, however otherwise everything was ok. The breakfast was varied. Absolutely great was the inside area: there is-next to restaurants and pool bars - a large, deep pool and a lovely planted, somewhat flatter water landscape, by the swimming pool and within walking distance. The loungers are easily accessible, it is nice and quiet.
The beach is quickly reached. It is worthwhile, at ... the beach (or on the small street directly behind the beach) further to the rear to walk, since not every pool chair is occupied. read more

In the all in all a very nice resort. The rooms were okay, a bit small and the air-conditioning was bad until not at all chilled. The staff is not as friendly as one it from other corners of thailand knows. The breakfast was ok, not so tasty, the selection was also ok. There were some stores and restaurants all around. The beach is far away from the hotel and one must be very early in the morning a bon at the front desk get, with the you get a beach chair at the beach get (think no later than ... 7:30 a. m. you have to this got, if there is ) the beach me not at all good, everything is completely seats on the whole length. However the pool or rather said the pool area i really liked. So in the all in all the resort is ok, but i would probably not more dorthinziehen. Nevertheless i can recommend it, if the aforementioned not too much to heart is. read more

On the first glance you might say: wow! A lot of green, great pool and great lobby, but as written above, only on the first glance! At least if you the more than musty room enters and on the first morning between stray cats the more than modest breakfast passed by the desire to this hotel. The vacation available for us under the slogan :' once Kata Palm and never again!' read more

The hotel is already somewhat outdated.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, also with a complaint was fast and friendly one acted.
We had a pool-access room, what really recommendable is, here you can also in case of bad weather on the chairs relax on the terrace and feet into the water or a swim go.
The pool wafts through the half garden area, is however on the one side only 50 centimeter deep and so not so ideal for swimming.
The breakfast buffet is sufficient stocked, however not really tasty. The food by the pool restaurant was very ... good.
Annoying were all the taxi drivers in front of the hotel the a every time in the past chat up, generally Kata meanwhile unfortunately very crowded and built up, you will be on every corner accosted regarding various einkaufsaktivitäten.
The way to the beach is reasonable, not too far, however are the hotel's own loungers within 5 minutes run down (one must in the morning at 8 o'clock at the front desk his). The rollerservice in front of the hotel seemed a bit strange is however recommendable, when we were there no problems for the 3 days scooter hire.
Overall it was okay, i have already clearly better hotels for the same price seen, but also some worse! read more

Good recommendable holiday hotel, the at some places already getting old is.
Beautiful pool area in a beautifully designed tropical garden. Within the hotel
It is very quiet and relaxing, in comparison to the surrounding hotel area the very lively and
Lively.
We had a pool access room which was very nice in a thai style decor. The loungers on the
Terrace are very comfortable.
The selection at the breakfast is good. There is something for every taste and who finds here nothing is
Your own fault. We must finally also the value for money in mind.
Our summary is ..., that we definitely again spend our holiday would. read more
