P. Guesthouse reviews

Read 15 opinions from Travelfish readers

A great place to escape from city life - 21st December, 2008
I first stayed at P. Guesthouse back in July 2007 for six nights. I travelled alone and the staff were really friendly. Aircon, TV, hot shower, clean rooms. Basic but comfortable and value for money. The restaurant provided decent food and was near the two night markets in krabi town, the one down the road at Chao Fa pier, and the other at the town centre. I returned to P. Guesthouse two more times in January 2008 and May 2008. The familiar and friendly faces were the main factor in my return visits. The key to a great accommodation experience is to simply be nice, and any issues you have with your room and staying experience would be readily attended to by helpful and willing staff. Over my 3 visits there, I've witnessed the high and low seasons, from the time where Krabi town was a quaint and peaceful place to the time in January where there was a carnival of sorts opposite p. guesthouse. It was really great for experiencing authentic thai culture of the town as I came across very little foreigners. Overall, a recommended place for backpackers.

Friendly stuff - 19th March, 2008
Loved to stay there and even came back for a night! Friendly people and helpful, nice staff. Restaurant was good as well. The rooms are decent and quiet and I found it to be reasonably priced. Definitely a recommendation!

a good place to stay - 29th August, 2007
I came from Koh Samui to Krabi, and on the way the bus stoped at a gas station were there is an office of P.P. Family travel agency (they operate in Krabi area) and they call for me to P. GH and book an A/C room for 600 bhat. From Krabi bus station a driver picked me up to the GH. It's a very nice GH indeed, clean room, hot shower, nice staff and small restaurant with good thai and european food. it's not far from the local mall ''Vogue'' where you can find KFC and the Pizza Company with some good bargains of clothes, and also not far from the river where you can take a nice walk along side it. in the GH you can book some trip to the islands like Phi Phi and kayak or ATV trips, but you should bargain about the price or try to find someone else how gives a cheaper price - eventually all travel agencies sell the same trips here. and 1 last advice: if you not booking in advance you should bargain for the price of the room too - i'm sure 600 bhat for A/C is overpriced! enjoy :-)

Great Guesthouse - 24th May, 2007
This place is by far one of the best guesthouses i've stayed since being in Thailand. The rooms are clean, the people are friendly, the location is good. The staff were very helpful in booking tours and transport without being pushy or charging extreme prices. This is a great little place to stay :)

We are sorry - 27th April, 2007
I am the owner of P. Guest House and was very upset to hear that Bell and his wife had a bad experience. We did have some problems with some of the room as happens in all hotels at some point. We have now distroyed five beds and closed the Guest House for a week while we fumigated just to make sure there were no insects left. My family and i sleep here too and it is important to us that our guests are happy and comfortable in our small family run Guest House. The night porter at the time was only here for two weeks and did not speak much English while our usual man who works at night was visiting family. Here at P. Guest House we hope that everyone who visits us has a pleasent and enjoyable stay while on their holiday. I am sorry again for the couple who had a bad time. We take pride in the fact we keep our rooms clean with contstant supply of hot water, TV and also good food for our guests. Ta

Mostly Nice - 26th April, 2007
The hot showers are great not just a box on the wall this water comes from a tank!!! The Food was great with the staff in the restaurant very funny and happy.... I have to say I have read the comments from other people \i dont know how much they travel but the oh so very nice Mr Pet was nothing but sleezy and just after money money and more money, all the happiness was just fake. I found him to be leary as a female on my I own its not what I wanted, Its a shame because everything else was so good but the Pet fella needs to go.

DO NOT STAY HERE - 30th March, 2007
booked a/c room 600bt. After a long day travelling had an early night, was woken up by insect bites at about 23.30. Found the bed and room infested with an insect which looked like a cross between a beetle and a tick. They had been biting me and my wifeand were full of blood!! Complained to the night porter who offered another room, when I checked under the pillow the insects were there too. Showed the night porter who just shrugged and walked out. Had to change guesthouses at midnight, was lucky and found Chaifa guesthouse down the road for 680bt a/c and b/fast, better room and no sleeping partners. Stay here if you want the full travelling experince only

A very great place - 23rd February, 2007
I was very happy to stay here for six days. The hot water is great. Everybody was very friendly. The man in reception was very good. The first time he wanted me to buy a tour with him but I don't want to -- I went to Ao Nang and bought a sea kayak trip there. They arranged to meet me at 08.00am but when they didn't show up the man helped me to call them three times for free. Thank you very much to him. I loved this place see you again next year P Guesthouse.

A nice change - 22nd February, 2007
Wow hot showers made such a nice change -- everywhere else I have stayed in Thailand had cold showers. The staff were very friendly when I first arrived but then the staff member with glasses spoke very bluntly and not at all nicely to me when he thought I was not going to book a trip with him. This was such a shame as I had every intention of booking with them but on the principle I booked elsewhere that made the guy even less helpful and just rude. The rest of the staff were great they went above and beyond to make sure that I was happy and in the restaurant I ate some of the best food I've had in Thailand good prices too. I would recommend the place to anyone just a shame about the one member of staff.

A great place - 17th February, 2007
P Guesthouse is a great place to spend a week or two, be careful you might end up there your whole stay. Very friendly, nice cheap rooms, hot water and quiet location, made this guest house like a home away from home for me... also very helpful front desk. A ten for me.

Great Spot - 7th February, 2007
Stayed here for a couple of nights. Owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was great. The location was very quiet compared to the rest of town, and just a short (5 minute) walk from the hub of town, from the songthaews and longtails to Railay and beyond. Great restaurants nearby. Above all, it was quiet and serene both at night and in the morning, something that is not always found in buzzing Thailand. Highly recommended.
