Swim-up Rooms & Private Pools in Chumphon Province

Wow we stayed here between getting the ferry from Koh Tao and getting on our late night train to Bangkok. This meant that we did not stay overnight but wished we had time to. The pool is fabulous and if you get a pool room they open out directly onto the pool so feels like your own private area, great for children. The staff could not do enough for us, they even gave us a lift to the station. We absolutely loved our brief stay. It is spotlessly clean and the facilities are fantastic, the price was more than some other local hotels but very good value and worth every dollar.

Excellent friendly staff. Balcony room overlooking pool was a good size and comfortable. Breakfast was a mixture of Asian and European cuisine of a good quality. Lovely pool, towels provided. Restaurant available. The hôtel staff organised a private tour of the area at our request which was excellent.

A pleasant surprise. Good room with comfy beds and facilities. Air-conditioning worked well, so we slept well. The swimming pool was lovely, big enough to actually swim. Breakfast was superb - loads of choice and good quality coffee, certainly some of the best breakfast choices we have had in Thailand. Location was central in Chumphon with lots of food, drinks, and shopping within walking distance. Great value for money.

The room was really nice. The staff were awesome! Loved the balcony overlooking the pool and the tranquil and lush ambiance of the whole place. The location was great too. Fairly short walk to the train station and about a 10 minute walk from a motorbike rental place (Fame Tours). Perfect place to stay for a few days to explore the beautiful and under-touristed Chumphon province!

This hotel is exceptional. Easy checkin, large rooms with super comfortable beds , the best hot water showers in Thailand, and great breakfast. There is a very nice restaurant at the hotel and a nice pool. To top it all off is the wonderful staff. I live in and have travelled Thailand extensively and this hotel is as good as any I have stayed in. Just wonderful.

We stayed 3 nights at the A-Te Chumphon Hotel in late May - pool view room, 3rd floor. A lovely place - the staff are terrific, it's spotlessly clean, comfortable, modern and has a great swimming pool - an oasis in the middle of town. The breakfast is a good with a selection of Thai & western style foods from fresh fruit through to omelettes, salads, rice soups, savoury dishes, pastries, toast, cereal and Thai sweets. Plus fresh coffee, teas & juices. We had a dental emergency occur just before we were to head to Krabi and the wonderful Khun Gai called a dentist there and arranged an appointment for us for as soon as we arrived. She and all the team at the hotel were so helpful and welcoming during our stay. We loved the small touches - for example the standard 2 bottles of drinking water that are usually provided were glass refillable and not single-use plastic. The hotel also runs an excellent onsite restaurant - Prikhorm - super tasty fresh food. If you like your Thai food spicy then just let them know when you order. The sign out the front says A-Te is a "Relaxury Hotel" - we completely agree!

We stayed three nights at A-Te hotel. Staff was very nice and helpful. Room big bright and clean with many nice amenities such as robes and slippers. Bed Asian ‘comfortable’, but pillows quite hard. Beautiful pool and good breakfast with fresh coffee. The area of town did not have much for tourists to do so we mostly just hung out at pool which is fine for us. Hotel took us to airport for 700 baht (not sure if this a fair price but was very convenient).

Only stayed here for one night but it was my second time at this hotel. The last time was about 6 years ago. Check in staff were all excellent. Very friendly and nice welcoming drink. Room was nice pool view little on the basic side but that was fine. What was very good was the bathroom was a good size and plenty of hot water. Not that many bathrooms in Thailand have hot running water in the sink. But the biggest improvement in my opinion was the breakfast. When I’m in Thailand I only eat Asian food and the selection was brilliant I can’t comment on English food because I can have that every day of the year at home so why eat it on holiday. Would definitely recommend and I would stay longer next time.

Best value hotel in Chumphon, for 1200 baht we got the best shower in over 30 days in Thailand. A clean and tidy room and a breakfast that in New Zealand would cost more than the 1 night stay!! . Friendly staff and it’s all right in the middle on Chumphon city so it’s close to night markets and amazing street food. Nice pool area with lots of shade. Perfect for a brief stopover for 1 or 2 nights.We have stayed in multiple hotels in Chumphon over the years and this is the best so far

The hotel is located in a strange town. We only used it as an overnight stay for heading to the islands. Staff were all very pleasant and helpful. Hotel room very clean and big. In the surrounding area there was very little to do , but the hotel met our needs. Coffee shop just outside do amazing cakes. Would def recommend if you are travelling to or from the islands and you need a comfy place to stay with pool, and you want to catch up with the news because that's the only tv channels available.

Pool access box is cool. Only stayed 1 night passing through. Near lots of little shops/restaurants/grocery store...

Retro Box was an unexpectedly positive experience. The owners managed to shade and insulate the metal containers in a way that it was nice and cool inside. There were quite a few rooms overlooking the pool (ours didn't, but it was better this way as those seemed a little bit smaller). Breakfast was delicious, staff were polite, beds were comfortable - we loved it so much that we were the last ones to check out, after reluctantly stopping all that pleasant lounging pool side. In short, we loved it, and would highly recommend it to others. Great job, 👍 well done!

The room was spacious and clean, as was the bathroom. The staff was very accommodating, I had hand washed some clothes and needed somewhere to hang them, they graciously offered me some space in their laundry area, in the back. The pool was relaxing and inviting, it was nice to be able to lounge in the pool and have a couple of beers with friends.

The rooms are exceptionally clean. Breakfast is ok. Complimentary coffee & tea always available I liked the novelty of stepping from our room into the pool, but the disadvantage of that is that anyone else in the pool is right outside your door.

Two night stay before going on to Koh Tao. Room was clean and had everything I needed. I particularly liked that the room was dark and the bed very comfortable so I slept well. Very convenient pick-up to Koh Tao ferry. I walked from the train station, about 12 minutes. Night market and shopping mall nearby. Staff friendly and helpful. Check first if you plan on using the pool, when I was there, it was closed for covid. I enjoyed my day in Koh Tao.
