Low on atmosphere

Description
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 fridges, and are a bit sterile, with views of nothing in particular, so you're better off heading elsewhere if all you want is a fan. The air-con rooms are a better deal -- they have TVs and hot water. All rooms have private baths.

Total rooms: 34

I stumbled in A Mansion just for a chance, as Chan Cha Lay didn't keep my reservation as promised and turned me down. I found a very friendly staff here and I was immediately given a nice room. It's true that it has a bit more the hotel kinda feeling than the one of a guesthouse, but the room was truly pleasant, fairly big, with big bed, air-con and cable TV. The bathroom was the best I had during my trip, with hot water too. Paid 500B for it. There's also a private locker provided in the reception area where to store valuables. There's no restaurant, but just outside the door, there's plenty of cafe's. I particularly liked Cafe' Eightynine: very good food! I'd definitely recommend it.


Excellent -

A Mansion is a very clean and excellent serviced hotel. What does Travelfish mean when they talk about "low on atmosphere"? ... Do they mean the hippy /reggae/ geronimo kinda stuff Krabi is full of? 400B for a clean fan room, 500B for air-con and 700B for a really big and excellently maintained room with air-con and mini-bar...(very handy if shopping in the local 7/11...) While the A Mansion has no restaurant or bar, within 50 metres you'll find your breakfast & beers in more than one place. They provide a free of charge locker for your valuables too ... Love this place.

Krabi River Hotel
73/1 Kongkha Rd, Krabi
The Krabi River Hotel is fairly new and has pretty much spotless rooms, some of which have small verandas overlooking the river -- there's also a nice terrace up on the roof with great views. Concrete and tiles throughout, this is a comfortable river-side option, just a short walk from the centre... more



Krabi City Seaview Hotel
77/1 Kongkha Rd, Krabi
The Krabi City Seaview Hotel is the oldest of the riverfront places in Krabi and represents reasonable value, though the river view rooms are certainly overpriced when compared to other hotels and guesthouses nearby. The rooms are priced according to what floor they're on and whether they have a... more



Krabi-Loma Hotel
20 Chao Fa Rd, Krabi
This is another smelly-carpet hotel with a lack of atmosphere. On our last visit we found the rooms comfortable and clean -- this time the mouldy shower curtains in the bathrooms lead us to change our point of view. All are air-con with TV and mini-bar, plus there's a small pool out back. Hot water... more
