Very nice room! Simple but clean and everything you need really. Staff was always nice and service minded to us. The absolute best thing was the breakfast, mojo cafe offers a lot of options when it comes to breakfast and every course is amazing. Location was perfect, close to all the beaches and walking street but not too close to get disturbed.

The hotel is really nice, the rooms are modern and clean. The staff is super friendly. We loved the location as it’s really central near walking street and many of the main beaches. You can walk everywhere. There is a popular cafe within the hotel and all the hotel guests can choose any food and drink items from the menu as a breakfast.. That was a big plus! Big breakfast

The breakfast is delicious. It is a menu type breakfast rather than buffet so it tastes fresh and there is a wide selection of food. The hotel is based next to walking street and walking distance to both pattaya beach and sunrise beach. Bed is huge and very comfortable. Great service from staff

This place is amazing! Right in the heart of things but it feels like a little oasis from the craziness of walking street. There’s so much greenery wrapping around the cafe, it feels like a jungle. The food and drinks are fantastic and the staff are really attentive and kind. Welcome mango smoothie when we arrived was a lovely surprise and just what we needed. They let us leave our bags by reception since we arrived on the island too early to check in. The breakky menu is very Aussie friendly with eggs and bacon etc. Theres even a little library and lounge area which is open to the island breeze and surrounded by glorious bright green creeping plants, a great place to take 5 and get your bearings. The rooms are cleverly laid out with complimentary water and huge comfy beds with air con and a nice clean bathroom. THANK YOU TO THE REEF HOTEL STAFF ❤️

Stayed two nights. The room is super old and run down. The bathroom door didn’t close. There was no handsoap in my bathroom and no small towels. The bed was rock hard. Found a cockroach in my bathroom and the room was full of mosquitos :( The breakfast was amazing, so good! The staff was polite and nice, they helped me with the cockroach. Unfortunately I couldn’t get in contact with them through their emergency line. The hotel has a garden/jungle vibe so if you, like me, don’t like insects etc I wouldn’t stay here.

Great location with an awesome breakfast - book it

We loved our stay here, perfect location for exploring the island and everything in walking distance. Quiet at night, had air con, safe, fridge. Bed maybe too hard for many people and pillow very firm. TV in rooms didn’t work (Why bother having a tv then? News channel would be good) but you could watch a dvd. We made a mistake whilst booking and they kindly accommodated us and we really appreciated this customer service. It’s a cute little place. Breakfast is the best we’ve ever had at a hotel which is served in the gorgeous cafe/restaurant next door, Mojo’s. every dish is beautifully presented and tastes amazing! We also had lunch here. Great find!

zum schlafen ungeeignetes Hotel

Der Service ist sehr gut, die Zimmer sind vernünftig gross und sauber, das Bett gross und bequem. Leider war dies auch alles was uns gefallen hat und wir können die durchweg positiven Bewertungen gar nicht nachvollziehen. Das Hotel hat scheinbar ein Abwasserproblem und somit hat man vor allem im Badezimmer einen stetigen Geruch von fauligem Wasser, der auch im Zimmer zu riechen ist. Das schlimmste ist jedoch, das das Hotel direkt neben einem stark befahrenen Weg liegt auf dem ab 6:30 Uhr morgens alle 15 Sekunden ein laut knatterndes Motorrad vorbeifährt. An schlafen ist dann nicht mehr zu denken. Die Wände des Zimmers sind leider sehr dünn, so dass wir zudem auch unsere Nachbarn vor dem Zimmer sehr laut gehört haben. Für uns war das alles nach 2 Nächten zu viel, dass wir obwohl für 4 Nächte gebucht hatten, vorzeitig ausgecheckt haben und uns ein ruhigeres Hotel am Strand gesucht haben.

Bella struttura, molto curata negli arredi, nei servizi e nella ristorazione. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo, a due passi dal centro ma molto silenziosa. Unica pecca, l'impossibilità di aprire le finestre nelle stanze al piano terra.

Hotel has a good location since it is nearby the beautiful Sunrise Beach and Walking Street. Friendly staff at The Reef and Mojo. Excellent breakfast at Mojo. Bathroom smelled quite bad. Our floor was dirty. We had white slippers on and they got pretty dirty because of the floor.. Also there were sometimes ants on the bed and on the wall.

Not for us…🙁

Not a fan and wouldn’t stay again. Quite good location though. Staff were nice. We paid extra for a family to have some space as they couldn’t accommodate twin beds on the level we required, which was fair. The front office had a cute cat, but he had obviously left his calling card somewhere. Bathroom smelt of sewage and could of done with the drains cleaning. The room wasn’t serviced well which didn’t help, especially as the bathroom wasn’t in a position to be left. Air con worked well and breakfast although limited, was delicious. They did lend towels and mats to take to the beach which was nice. I would shop around if I was visiting Koh Lipe again.
