Very disappointed
Koh lanta and Klongdao beach are my highlight of Thailand so far. The beach is beautiful and the bars (especially at sunset) are amazing. It feels like paradise. As for the hotel, let's start with the positives. Location is spot on with beach access and a short walk to bars on the road behind, and the beach end pool is decent with new decking laid. However, a big proportion of the hotel is in disrepair and little sign of work to put it right. We stayed in a family suite around the top pool and it was way past its best. Very basic facilities and a bathroom which never looked clean. The buildings were mainly wood and much of it looked rotten and in desperate need of replacement. NB The rooms nearer the beach looked better for couples/smaller families. The bar and beachside restaurant were no better. Staff with little motivation and an area desperate for a face-lift. Furniture was tired and worn and no interest in smartening it up, apart from when a function was on (think it was a wedding). Tablecloths were laid and a real effort was taken. It looked much better, but just made me mad the same effort wasn't taken daily for paying guests........it wasnt exactly a cheap hotel. Would I go back to ko lanta.....in a heartbeat. Would I stay here...........very unlikely!!

Run down, needs some attention, staff disinterested though there were a few good staff but these seemed to all be managers. Breakfasts very monotonous, no choice, same everyday. Generally disappointing but could be great as the actual resort is well designed.

Comfortable, relaxing place to stay.
Royal Lanta is in a great spot on Klong Dao beach, right on the sand and within easy walking distance of lots of good restaurants and bars. We had a superior villa which was really spacious and comfortable. Sometimes there were ants in the bathroom but the villa is in the middle of a garden so I didn’t expect anything else. There are 2 lovely swimming pools which are always clean. We preferred the top pool as we often had it to ourselves as everyone else went to the one beside the beach. Breakfast was adequate but nothing special and we didn’t try dinner here. We had a lovely stay and I’m sure we’ll be back for a third visit at some point.

Great 3 days at Royal Lanta
We had a great stay at Royal Lanta. The staff is super friendly and very welcoming. The hotel is in a great location at the north end of the island. Room was big (we had a deluxe), quiet, and peaceful. We loved the beach, as it is super clean, very quiet, and pretty. The wifi is just okay. The reggae bar 2 doors down was our absolute favorite the entire time we stayed. Good hotel for a good price - would stay here again.

Peaceful and relaxing
Green season stay so most of the facilities were closed. Too few staff to keep things in top condition but cleanliness was acceptable. Staff we did see were friendly and helpful. Not many bars or restaurants open during this time of year so it was a very peaceful holiday location with almost the entire beach to ourselves.

Has potential, but needs work.
The hotel is in a good area and I'd probably recommend it in high season, but I was there in low season. The spa was closed for 2 months and it seemed like the hotel needed more attention to upkeep. The room was not cleaned well, found someone else's hair in the shower, and mouse dropping were an issue. Don't leave your clothes on the bed in case. The pool area was beautiful and the breakfast was good for an included breakfast in Thailand.

Lovely location on the beach near good restaurants
We really enjoyed our two nights at Royal Lanta. The staff were extremely helpful and lovely. They upgraded our room and arranged transport from the ferry. They also called to check when our tour transport was late and provided us any assistance we needed with a smile. The room was spacious and clean. The beds could have been softer but were on par with most of the hotels we stayed in. There are two pools, which were both clean and refreshing. I would certainly recommend this hotel.

The Royal Lanta still a good choice
While the hotel is showing its age a bit it still has enough charm to make it worthwhile stay. The deluxe room is gigantic in hotel standards and all the teakwood is gorgeous. Skip the room with the jacuzzi as you won't really want to use it, but do enjoy the two pools as they are nice. Also the hotel can arrange excursions for you like snorkeling that are definitely worth it.

A good choice to be close to town and on the beach. Beachside restaurant closed for low season but meals still available at the coffe shop. Unlike most hotels they do not put up shade cloth screens in low season so you still get to enjoy a great beach view. Two lovely pools and beautiful garden. Villas are really clean and comfy with high ceilings making them feel very spacious. Great value in low season. Highly recommend.

Hotel is old- the bed is hard, could barely sleep. checked out after one night. Location is great though - center of Soludun, access to bars and restaurants.
