Great Value for Money

The value for the money is great! We were kindly greeted by the owner. We stayed for 5 days and felt she really cared for our happiness. We were able to book transportation through her and saved money by doing so. This is a budget accommodation but our room was clean upon arrival and they cleaned the room once more during our stay. The bed was not the most comfortable but the air conditioner was great. Breakfast was reasonably priced. I ate the banana pancakes every morning, they were delicious. The location is within walking distance to many restaurants and bars. It's about a 10 minute drive to the main pier for the boat to Phi Phi. Walking distance to the longtail boats to Railay. Overall, this guesthouse exceeded my expectations and was well worth the money. I would stay here again for budget travel.

Great Value and Great Advice from the Staff

We had such a great one night stay at Ban To Guesthouse in Krabi Town, that when we came back from the islands we stayed there once again. The room was comfortable and spacious. Close to the street market. We rented scooters from there as well at a reasonable price, and they gave it to us with a full tank which we had to return full (which is nice because in Thailand most places give it to you empty so you spend time looking for gas right away and you end up returning it with half a tank anyways). The owner was such a kind lady, who spoke excellent English and was very sharp and witty. She made us laugh a few times. She also was a fountain of knowledge for where to go and when, without being pushy or putting her recommendations above what actually is best for you. We felt like we could trust her and all she said about Railay beach and exploring Krabi Town turned out to be really great advice. She also arranged for our transfer to the airport at the unGodly hour of 4am at a reasonable price, and the driver was on time and friendly. All in all a great experience, a clean and relaxing environment, made all the more enjoyable by the presence of a very helpful and kind owner.

Ban to

Absolutely the best place I have stayed at during my travels.
Staff is very helpful and friendly
Food is cooked in their kitchen at lobby and is very good and cheap
The room is spotless!! It's huge, has a balcony, shower and toilet is clean and spacious. Any transportation needs can be booked at the lobby, at possibly the most cheapest prices available. Only issue was the wifi connection was only strong at the lobby area. But despite that, this place was a bargain! Stayed here twice now

Ban to guesthouse

I stayed in Krabi for one night before leaving to Koh phi phi. This place is in central Krabi town.
Has a lounge area to order good food, beer.( cheap and delicious)
The staff were incredible
You can pretty much book any transportation needs from the lounge area (very fair prices and they make things so easy for you)
Room I booked was a fan room.
Has a balcony, double bed, chairs, table, towel, the shower and toilet is VERY spacious and clean.
Overall I LOVED this place.

Great place just outside the city

Nice place on the edge of town. Walkable to all the shopping and night markets. Nice to be out of the city center and hear all the sounds of nature at night. Very helpful staff in making transportation arrangements.
Wifi spotty in the room but downstairs it worked fine.

One of the best place on crabi for the price!

A real guest house driven by a full familly to ease your life and doing their best to advice you(if you don't know) to chose your destinations or to give you the tips how to go where you want. Fair an honest, it's a pleasure to be at their place.
We spent 3 nights instead of 1, and it's almost for sure the best rate/confort you can find in crabi (i almost never give any advice on internet) but it was almost perfect that's why I want to congratulate them.

Thanks again!

Value for money

We only stayed for one night at the hotel. The service was good since they were waiting for us at the front desk, since we were a little delayed. They also offered us a good price for the next morning's ferry to koh phi phi. Good service, basic facilities, alright location, and great price.

Look elsewhere.

Wouldnt stay here again. Overall the service from the staff was not good. We were treated much differently than other guests and were pressured to buy packages from the guesthouse owner. Since we didn't (other than motor bike rental for 150 baht per day) we were not treated fairly. Ignored most of the time. Will not return and will not recommend.

The greatest staff that you will ever meet

My partner and I stayed at the Ban To guesthouse for three nights. At first glance the Ban To guesthouse may appear quite basic. The rooms are super clean and quite spacious, containing a bed, a fan and a small private bathroom. It never got unbearably hot in the rooms. The guesthouse is a small family owned business and it was not until we begun speaking to the staff there that we really started to enjoy our stay. They were so kind and welcoming and really made an effort to make us feel a part of their family. They provided laundry services and they were more than happy to cook us up a meal for lunch, breakfast or dinner in their small restaurant - cheap, convenient and tasty! We were also able to book various tours through the staff for super cheap prices - we went on a four island tour for just 400 baht each! They were even happy to drive us to and from the tiger temple for a small price and also organised all of our buses to our next destinations! We would definitely recommend staying at the Ban To guesthouse - great value for money!

The room was clean, but as mentioned earlier extremely basic, beds only had a bottom sheet & blanket, so had to use a sarong as top sheet.

Cheap, but worth a stop over or two nights here!

You get what you pay for with this hotel...
Family run which at first we got checked in by to 12 year olds so all was a bit weird but soon made sense.
On first sight the place is well hidden off the main drag which is nice.... Hotel rooms are very standard as well as bathroom, hard pillows and mattress have slept on much better. But was very cheap.
The reason I am still telling people who are stopping in krabi (we had 2 nights) is the mother who runs the place... Lovely friendly and so helpful.
Got us a full kayaking day in caves from 1000baht each rather than 2500 each! And then sorted out transfer from krabi to koh Samui for 400baht.
Made us breakfast... Good and cheap so yes I love the family vibe of this place :)
Wifi only works on balcony hallways and lobby wasn't a problem tho.
Overall small hotel needing a refurb like all the hotels in Thailand but staff were lovely.

affordable and clean.

if you are looking for a five star hotel, this is not the place for you. If however you are looking for a clean very affordable place for a night then this one certainly does the trick. It was a little tricky to find at first but if you look for the alley in front of the krabi art wall then walk down the hill it is easy enough to get to and an easy walk from there down to the water. The are was quiet around and the hotel staff friendly. There was even bottled water waiting for you in your room. A good place to stay for the price.

A lovely little hidden away gem. Room was simple but completely adequate for our stay. Air con cold, shower hot and water left daily. Family run guest house where they made us feel like guests in their home. Extremely helpful with booking things and planning. Cooked excellent meals for super cheap. Spent 4 nights here and would easily return. A short walk to 'central' Krabi and everything that was needed. Great value for money.

Wonderful stay in krabi town. The hostel is amazing and the staff is so helpful! Nice with a restaurant that serves cheap brekfast and food.
Just 5 min walk to the main road where all the restaurants and the market is. They have moterbikes for rental at the hotel which is nice if you want to do a day trip to emerald pool/ blue pool which was amazing all thow it is a 60min ride on a moterbikes. Can recommend going there!

Good basic guesthouse

We stayed 3 nights at Ban To guesthouse. Location was quiet, no traffic going by but still only 5-10min walk to day market, night market and shopping mall.
Room was really basic but clean, bed had seen it's best days already but it was okay. There was also a balcony but the views wasn't any special. No safe in the room but I think no housekeeping visited the room at all during our stay.
Staff was nice and helped us book train tickets to our next destination. There is eating possibility at the guesthouse if you don't want to walk further, 7/11 just 3 min walk away. I recommend though to visit and try night market for street food.
