Location
Offering 85 rooms, the comfortable 4-star Socialtel Koh Samui Hotel Chaweng is near the entertainment district of Chaweng, merely 1.9 km from the Moo 3. The hotel features an outdoor swimming pool and an Asian restaurant, boasting a location within easy reach of the Chaweng Boxing Stadium.
This Chaweng hotel is about 100 metres from the Green Mango Club, within 15 minutes' walk of the High Park Koh Samui. Sports fans can also visit Phetch Buncha Thai Boxing Stadium, just 1.4 km from the cosy Socialtel Chaweng, and take their families to the Samui Crocodile Farm, which is 2.4 km away. Located within reach of the accommodation, the buddhist temple "Pagoda Khao Hua Jook" is open for visiting by worshippers and tourists. For those travelling from afar, Samui International airport is 10 minutes' drive away.
The rooms at the Socialtel Chaweng have a dressing area and a sitting area, along with climate control for your convenience. Guests can enjoy rooms with views of the pool.
A continental breakfast is available in the morning. In-house Sandbox Pool restaurant serves British cuisine for dinner, and high tea can be enjoyed at Urban. There is a seafood restaurant serving European food nearly a 5-minute walk away.
Review by hotel critic
As a marine biologist and experienced traveler, I often seek places that combine quality with value. During my stay at Socialtel in Thailand, I found it an affordable gem. The aesthetic of the hotel is modern and playful, reminiscent of a funky Ibiza hotspot, which stands out in comparison to other properties in the area. The location is ideal, right by the buzz of restaurants and bars; however, be prepared for some nighttime noise. The private room I had was clean, spacious, and offered a comfortable bed with a flat-screen TV featuring Netflix, a true plus after a long day exploring. The social atmosphere is vibrant, with a DJ poolside, fun games like beer pong, and plenty of sun loungers. While not a luxury resort, the amenities such as 24-hour reception, free Wi-Fi, and a poolside snack bar add to the overall experience. For young travelers seeking adventure without breaking the bank, Socialtel is a wise choice.
