Room was perfect only thing is maybe they need a shower cubical otherwise water goes everywhere when showering. Location is central a 5-10min walk to the beach and 15mins walk to Bangla road. Staff were excellent Jubjib, Ghaye,Noey,Bewty and Nai you guys rock. So friendly and always happy to help. Will definitely be back.

This was a great stay & I would recommend to others. We were welcomed with delicious mango juice during check-in and that just set the tone for the rest of our stay. Friendly and super helpful staff. The breakfast was amazing and different everyday. Every need and concern was addressed and fixed. The location was also close to everything. About a 8 min walk to the beach and 15 min walk to Bangla and the mall. I will definitely stay again when I return.

Upon arrival I was asked to pay 1000 Bhat deposit this is a hidden cost. Make sure you read all the small print and open all the tabs on the booking app. The room was right at the back of the hotel next to the lift. I did not get any quality sleep at all. The room had an old camp bed which was supposed to be a sofa, broken balcony chairs, a toilet seat that did not fit. The corridor floor just outside the room was constantly wet due to leaks/rain. I was given absolutely no instructions upon check-in, staff were more concerned about the 1000 bhat deposit. Inside the room there is a menu book which listed room items down to drinking glasses etc with prices we had to pay if we broke anything. It was such an awful stay for me. The actual hotel does not look like the pictures advertised online. I would say this hotel was more like a 1/2 star based on the room I stayed in, facilities and customer service.

Breakfast was fantastic. Great options every day. Service of our room was exceptional with cleaner very flexible and quickly attended to any requests.
The pool was very disappointing and doesn’t reflect the online views. The grounds/garden between reception and the rooms are in need of a major upgrade.
Overall, the property is in need of an overhaul but the staff could not be faulted and are a great asset to the hotel

Dear Hotels.com,
I suggest that you un-list this hotel from your site. It has huge management problems.
There are 2 kinds of hotels:
1) The ones that enjoy to have guests and care for them.
2) The ones that consider guests to be a problem and prefer they were not there.
The Lunar Patong is the second option.

I was not happy with hotel or staff. Communication and trying to speak to staff in English was difficult at most times. Food ( breakfast all I ate) very average and basic.

We had to move room as there were bugs in our bathroom and our classic pool access room, well pool had nails, rocks and debris from renovation on upper level. Very dangerous, I complained every day was not given access to hotel manager until after several days.

As I booked this via Expedia and paid hotel directly I was unable to move hotel without loosing my money so was unfortunately made to stay a be unhappy. I did call Expedia and they tried to call hotel without success. Hotel denied they tried to call…

My overall experience was poor and made my holiday experience not what I had planned after going to relax and distress.

Hotel after several complaints would not even consider refunding remaining days for us to move after several requests. Nooooo customer service.

Rooms are spacious and the balcony has beautiful view of pool and hills. Breakfast is good and the outside infinity pool is so relaxing.
The staff at the front desk is not co-operative. I had checked in with my parents and small kid, 2 hrs before check-in time. After a lot of request also they didn't allocate b4 time.

Good location, affordable price...

We arrived a bit early to drop our bags and go shopping until our room was ready and were surprised to be check in early instead. Staff were happy and friendly. The pics of this hotel might need some updating as it's now looking a bit tired. Room was clean and comfortable however the AC was a bit noisy and struggled to maintain a consistent temperature.

This place is an OK place. I don't have any major bad experience. If you are expecting a fine place similar to a Marriot then that's not it. The room is spacious, the bathroom is what we did not like and it feels old. Our shower had issues with adjusting hot/cold and the hand held fixture was lose. My daughter was feeling sick and she threw up for which we needed new sheets. Called the front office and they said the house keeping was not available. They couldn't even give us new sheets, saying the room was locked and they did not have access to it. The next day our room power went out. We called the front office and they did respond to that. They have a odd rule of holding 1000baht as a security deposit when you check-in in cash. So if you don't have cash before going to this place then you better be prepared to run down to a foreign exchange nearby. They also charge an extra 500 baht if you asks for additional key cards.

The hotel required a $1,000 cash deposit upon check-in, and guests must retain the paper receipt provided in order to reclaim their deposit upon checkout. During my stay, I discovered that the hotel does not have any security measures in place to restrict access to the guest rooms, meaning anyone can walk in and out freely. On one particular night, my room was disturbed at 3 AM by repeated loud banging on the door. I chose not to open it, but the incident left me feeling unsafe and disturbed. Given these issues, I would not choose to stay at this hotel again.

Not bad but not great.

Overall, a good monthlong stay at Lunar.

Customer service is good; the staff is friendly and will try accommodating you the best they can. Young staff but proactive.

WiFi was TERRIBLE. I was in a corner room, which ended up being a dead signal space. They need to add additional routers for better and uninterrupted service. (I often had to use the wifi of the hotel next door.) Everywhere else in the hotel, the WiFi was great!

Housekeeping is good but inconsistent. There's always something missing or not done. For example, one time, most everything was done but they didn't restock the coffee and water. Another time, they forgot the pillows. Another, they did everything else but forgot to provide clean cups/glasses. One housekeeper made the bed great, but the other didn't seem to know how to put on a comforter. Very inconsistent.

In-room dining has reasonable options that are priced okay, but why do that when there are eateries EVERYWHERE? And no late night service (ends at 21:30).

Airport taxi on my arrival was reasonably priced (about $20), but on the return they wanted to charge 1200 THB (~$32). (I hired a taxi online for my return; cost less than $20.)

There is a charge for overnight guests but they didn't seem to enforce it (for me, at least).

Summary: Good hotel that could use some TLC and better management/organization, but I'd stay again in a pinch.

Significant mould all through the room on the walls, couch and especially the bathroom. Its a shame because its quite a nice room otherwise. The customer service is below average, when checking in the lady who was serving me just stopped to start serving someone else mid conversation with me without even acknowledging the issue. We tried to use their in room service but couldnt get them to respond or answer the phone, bathroom was not cleaned upon arrival (no toilet paper stocked and the bin still full from the previous person) overall pretty poor experience as there was no urgency to rectify these issues

Good location if you’re wanting to have some distance from the hustle and bustle of Bangla Rd - approx 15 minute walk. The hotel is quite beautiful with a gorgeous pool. The staff were all absolutely amazing, so attentive, kind and answered any of our silly questions. The rooms are decent with really good beds although there is a sewerage scent that comes and goes but if you keep your toilet lid down, it’s mostly okay. Family friendly and affordable, would recommend.
