Chao Fa Pier Area

The area around Chao Fa pier has enough to satisfy most travellers. Traffic noise on Uttarakit Rd can be a real problem, so for peace and quiet, get a place well off the road or head somewhere else in town. Hotels in and around the town centre are more convenient to the shops and markets.

  • A. Mansion

    A. Mansion

    Low on atmosphere

    12/6 Chao Fa Rd, Krabi
    T: (075) 630 511-2;

    This is a reasonable mid-range option among the bars and restaurants clustered on a stretch of Chao Fa Rd, but the place itself doesn't have much atmosphere. The fan rooms out back have no TVs or ... Read the full review of A. Mansion.

  • Ban To Guest House

    Ban To Guest House

    one of the newest and one of the best

    22/6 Chao Fa Rd, Krabi
    T: (075) 612 950;

    This place is just down the alley from the Chao Fah Guest House, but a spring running down the alley makes it mossy and hard to navigate, so it's better to arrive by going around the block. The ... Read the full review of Ban To Guest House.

    Gooddream Guesthouse

    T: (075) 622 993; F: (075) 622 993

    This place can get a bit raucous and seems to attract a lot of single male clientele. We're not saying the bar/restaurant downstairs is a girlie bar, but it kinda has that atmosphere... Still, it's a ... Read the full review of Gooddream Guesthouse.

    T: (075) 630 272; F: (075) 630 272

    T: (075) 630 339;

    Bai Fern Mansion has colourful, clean, well-furnished rooms, but the quality is very variable. Some are quite airy with small verandas while others are cave-like with near-pretend windows. The place ... Read the full review of Bai Fern Mansion.

Krabi town centre

There are budget and mid-range options scattered throughout the area around Krabi's shopping mall. No shortage of shops and restaurants -- and a good choice if you like to be in the centre of things.

Fossil Shell Beach

Fossil Shell Beach is a handy getaway both from Krabi and the hordes of tourists you get throughout the province. There are only two places to stay here, that we know of -- if you find some more, let us know. A luxury development is under construction, but for now, it's a laidback sleepy part of Krabi province, with the occasional passing long-tail being about as exciting as it gets. Bring a good book.
