If you’re on a weekend get-away and you’re looking for a quiet, beautiful, mellow, romantic hideout, this is a gorgeous place to land. The hotel is absolutely serene and lovely, the staff are very helpful and courteous. The room we had was cozy, a bit on the small side if you had a lot of luggage or like to lounge in your room, but fine for the two of us. We loved the soft, comfortable mattress and linens. If you are not traveling as a romantic couple, the room and bathroom configuration may pose a lack of privacy, but we were absolutely fine (no door to toilet). The location is off a main road in the Old Quarter/Waller City. If you are looking for a hotel in the middle of the action – bars, the Night Bazaar, this is not it. But we had no problem taking tuk-tuks to the main activity hub – about a 7 minute ride costing an average of 50 baht. For the money, we were very happy with our weekend at the Tamarind.
