S Tara Grand

Business hotel that checks all the boxes!
The hotel is quite large, with probably close to 100 rooms. We initially booked 2 nights and extended by another night as it was really comfortable.

The rooms are large, very well equipped, including small things such as a nightstand and power socket on both sides of the bed and light blocking curtains. The bed was very comfortable, the AC working well and the room décor modern with lime green upholstery (it reminded us of a Holiday Inn express).
Parking is plentiful, including an underground covered carpark. There is an elevator to reach the upper floors, a fitness centre, and breakfast is available for a fee.
Everything was spotlessly clean in the room and the lobby. We did not see a single ant in our room.

The location is outside of Surat Thani town and only advisable if you have your own transport. Central Mal is within 1km walking distance, but requires crossing a busy highway (overpass is available near the mall)

Walk-in rate is 590B for a standard room.
There's a 500B cash deposit at check-in, which is understandable, as there is a fully stocked minibar in the room.

I stayed this hotel over a year because of bussiness 9years ago. And i had good time with it.

Good location and not far from Central Plaza Clean and breakfast is just my FV southern food but for western and america i think is might spicy and salty for you. Good experience here.

Good Room. Good Breakfast and comfort to travel. I love this place because this hotel has fitness room.

Clean & Comfort. Will be 5 star rating if improve breakfast quality & freshness. And more Wifi speed & stability.

Room was spacious n clean. Front office spoke n understood English. There is a big shopping mall within 1km. Overall, a good stay. Will consider staying here again if I'm in Surat..
