Lanta Thip House by Swiss-Belhotel

The hotel was nice, clean and the stuff was very nice and welcoming. There was also Netflix which we really liked.

The location is not ideal and we found it a bit expensive for what it was.

Lanta Thip House is a very clean and nice place to stay. The rooms are well maintained, and the atmosphere is comfortable and relaxing. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome throughout our stay. A special highlight is that the bed sheets are changed every day, which shows great attention to cleanliness. Overall, it’s a great place with excellent service. Highly recommended.

The hotel is comfortable and well situated with the beach within a 10 minute walk one way and shops and restaurants within a 15 walk the other way. The pool was lovely and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

The places was great.

The staff here are beyond lovely. Really friendly and kind people, always welcoming. They are always happy to help with anything. The views from the room are lovely, so much greenery! It’s nice to sit on the balcony and look out. We thought the location was good, it’s in the middle of the island so you can go north or south with no problem, if you wanted to try all the beaches as we did. There’s some really good restaurants within a 15-20 minute walk, but this is on the main road with no pavement and very little street lights, so feels a little dangerous at night. Cocos restaurant gets a special mention because it was fantastic. The beach nearby is nice but the tide goes out midday leaving a lot of rocks and nowhere to swim, so we found other beaches were much nicer, like long beach. The breakfast food was good. If you are not renting a motorbike (we didn’t) it can be hard to get around as you are reliant on taxis. The hotel can recommend a taxi but sometimes we found he didn’t respond, this is the number of the driver we used +66 89 729 5237 he was excellent. A kind and safe driver, very fast with responses and fair negotiable prices. He even has a speaker in the back you can connect to and play your own music! The hotel helped us with laundry, which was good, and can advise on day trips which is useful. They also provide beach towels which is an asset.

Everything was a little basic. Breakfast was fairly average. You choose one option from a list and the coffee is instant, you have to pay extra for latte, cappuccino etc. Though good, it was small. There is no complimentary fruit for example, which we have had at almost every other hotel so far. The rooms are spacious and brightly lit but also very plain. No decoration really. We found our air conditioning very weak and quite hit and miss, often it didn't even feel like it was on in the night. There is complimentary water in the room but no kettle or teas and coffees. The shampoo and body wash was always only partially refilled, meaning every day we had to leave a message or a sign we needed it refilled. Even then it was only filled a little, enough to last only one day. Though we did really enjoy our stay, when considering other hotels we have stayed in whilst travelling, and the price we paid to stay at this hotel compared with those, these things are worth mentioning. It is a nice place to stay but the amenities felt slightly basic to us.

One of the best places to stay. It is in a great location in the middle of the island so it’s not too far to get to anywhere. Thip and her staff are very kind and welcoming, it became a home from home. There is a nice and quiet pool area which is perfect for relaxing any time of day and Thip was very helpful to me as a solo traveller for arranging scooter hire and day trips. Thanks very much Thip, hope to see you again soon.

The hotel was very clean and the staff were very attentive and friendly. The beds were very comfortable. Within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Nice pool. Easy to rent scooters at the hotel and to book trips and transport. Breakfast was nice and there was a few choices to pick from.

All good.

The place was perfect and quiet with a shirt 5 minute walk to the beach. And a 15-minute walk go to the nearest shop. You can hire mopeds direct from the hotel, which makes getting around the island much easier. The pool is also perfect for those morning swimming

Friendly and helpful staff, which provided everything we needed. Good breakfast and coffee.

The location was not so good if you want to walk around, as there were no pavements near the property. Sadly the pool works only until 7 pm.

Clean and comfortable hotel. Great gardens and pool. Very friendly and welcoming staff.

The hotel was extremely clean, with such a nice personel and cozy atmosphere. They have a scooters to rent so you can move around the island with no problem. 10/10

Everything about this place is amazing and super cozy. Felt at home our whole entire time here, from the pool, coffee, quiet balcony and super comfy bed with a smart telly to watch Netflix. But the thing that made our stay really stand out was the staff. From the reception staff who were always super helpful and lovely to talk to and most importantly the manager. Most people have this thing about managers being horrible and not very nice but the manager here is an absolute star! She is so friendly and super welcoming and a pleasure to of met and a friend for life. Thip we love you!!!

Noting bad about this place.

Staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. The room was simple but very clean and the bed was comfortable. Housekeeping everyday

It's a little far from everything, 15-20 min walk to restaurants/coffee/7-11. But we rented a scooter to get around so had no issue with this.

Super friendly staff, pool was lovely. Clean and comfortable bed. Highly recommend this place. Rent a scooter or car in Koh lanta, needed for any place on the island.

It was very clean, staff were very polite and friendly.They also gave us a free upgrade to a better room and the breakfast was spot on. It was like staying at a Homestay not a hotel - very nice.

Nothing we didn’t like - only constructive criticism is the hotel is located 10 min walk from the restaurants. Therefore, it would be a good idea, if they had a small bar serving drinks, residents can chat/play cards before heading to bed.

The staff are extremely friendly & helpful. Everything is very clean and well maintained including the pool.It’s not quite like the photos tbh - the hotel is on the main road and we had a roadside room the first night which was pretty noisy. Luckily a poolside room was available at not extra cost for the remainder of our stay, which made for a much better experience.The breakfast is a choice of western options with Illy filtered coffee.We rented a moped from the store next to the 7-11 which was great. The roads are in pretty good condition and most people drives quite slowly.Best beach for us was Kantiang Bay. Lots of shady options including deckchairs outside the Aqua Bar which I highly recommend - good cocktails and the restaurant attached does very good food. The bay is very pretty and a nice swim spot, not very busy and clean. Lanta Old Town also worth a visit. It’s really just one street but very laid back, pedestrian friendly and lots of food options - we ate at a place called Sunee which was the best food we had on the island. Also excellent for juices and sodas.

I liked the hotel - but not the road, and the breakfast area outside is right next to the road with very little shade.

Staff very friendly and were always happy to help. Lovely beach not too far away, full of bars and restaurants. Nice balcony to sit out at night. Clean pool

The room was small and basic with no draws to put clothes in, so basically had to live out of a suitcase. Breakfast poor. When I asked if they had juice, I was told you had to pay extra.The beach with some great bars was 500m away. However at night time, there was no lighting and dangerous walking down the road back to the apartmentAdvertised a minibar, but they was none. This was only a problem for the first night as we got drinks in after that. The bathroom. No plug in the sink so you were shaving in cold running water.A bit of a disappointment but the beach made up for it.

The room location staff and breakfast

Good location. Very clean. Amazing staff

We just loved our stay. Such chilled vibes here, only an 8 minute walk to beach nearby. It is so clean, pool was lovely and cool, staff were so friendly & helpful. Thip herself & Om are so pleasant, kind and will arrange taxi's and transfers for guests AC was v good too. Would highly recommend Thip House.

Nothing really

Lovely small, quiet hotel. Very clean and well maintained by the staff. Nice quiet pool area.Freshly cooked breakfast, choice of 5 options.

Quite out the way, 15 minutes walk to the beach and main bars.Limited choice at breakfast, not a buffet.
