We stayed at this location for our entire Thailand trip which was 8 nights. We were incredibly happy with the location of the hotel which is right in the heart of a lot of attractions. It is perfectly between both Kata and Karon beaches - maximum ten minute walk to each. It is surrounded by multiple massage parlours, a variety of restaurant with a great mix of local foods, motorbike rental as well as souvenir stores. It is set back from the main road it is on so there is no disturbance from vehicle noise or any passing foot traffic The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Always greeting you in the morning and offering help and advice if asked. Our package included daily breakfast buffet which changed slightly each day. While there were a number of staples every day (omelette cooked fresh, waffles, selection of fruit, toast) other things changed each day (pancakes usually alternated with French toast, plain rice alternate with fried rice etc). The food was wonderful and was a good way to start your day. Now the very FEW negatives we experienced were with the bathroom. Unfortunately the water pressure wasn’t great as well as the temp control. Every shower ranged between borderline scalding hot to cold changes multiple times in the one shower. We also found it would leak out around the tub onto the floor. Frankly not crazy bad issues but could get a slight bit tedious! We WOULD stay again!

Disappointing stay over New Year.
Mixed views about our stay. There are some positives - staff are friendly and location is good for restaurants and bars in the area. Beach is about a 10 minute walk which is fine. Room was a decent size and overlooked pool - just! Unfortunately the negatives outweighed the positives and I can’t really recommend the hotel. It is very dated in some areas - pool bar desperately needs some t.l.c. Bathroom is tiny and the overbath shower very poor. Towels were basic too and although the room floor was swept daily and the bed made, general tidying wasn’t completed well - empty bottles left and papers, boxes etc just left on countertops. Breakfast wasn’t great - coffee and tea was very poor - tea stewed in a coffee pot on a hot plate! Or age juice wasn’t fresh and very watery, food in general was cold and we managed really on toast that we did ourselves. We paid the mandatory additional fee for the New Years Eve Gala dinner and the buffet was ok. The entertainment was appalling and we left just after 9pm whilst a game of musical chairs was being played. We were also very uncomfortable- being squashed in so tightly that we had to climb over other chairs and the stage itself to get any food - and waiters struggled to get to us to serve drinks. Overall a disappointing stay. It is certainly nowhere near a 4 star hotel and I would struggle to say it was a good 3 star.

Location was good but facilities were sorely lacking for advertised 4 star hotel. We were put in a part of hotel not used or occupied for a while. Had squatters right outside the fence. Found rat droppings in room. Advised staff but nothing was done. When ready for bed found bed bugs amongst bedding. Checked out that very same night we arrived. Still waiting for a refund as hotel manager has been unavailable for 4 days to accept responsibility. Not a good experience at all.

Great place to stay - once we got the room we wanted. Magic - on the edge of a sheltered branch of the pool. The food at the special arrangements (banquets) was amazing, so hard to understand why the meals cooked by the same restaurants were quite mediocre otherwise - fortunately there are quite a few good restaurants just around the corner. Breakfast buffet is simply amazing. Only one bad thing: Beware if the management wants you to (temporarily) move to a different hotel - it might be a bad experience!

Not good if you have mobility problems
Lovely warm welcome from Hotel, although they would not organise transport from airport told us to go to taxi more convenient, we got ripped off and driver didn’t know where he was going. Breakfast choice could be looked at, not consistent. Food cheaper to buy from room service than sitting in restaurant. Young porters were very good and collected and delivered us up and down the hills , far too steep especially with pushchair. For good beaches, grab a taxi. Lots of lovely places to eat.

excellent breakfast, great location
We enjoyed our stay, had a small problem with check out. Breakfast was excellent, the location to both beaches is great. The Wednesday night buffet was spectacular. I would recommend taking a minute to check that all things are in your room when you check in. When we checked out, the man at front desk said that a teaspoon (used for stirring the coffee) was missing. I went to the room, and could not find the second spoon. I suggested that the morning before my husband had to have breakfast in the room because of his fall and smashing his head. I was so happy that they allowed him to have the food in the room that I took back all the dishes to the kitchen. I must have taken the second spoon to the kitchen as well. We were charged 50 thai monies for the spoon. I feel this was ridiculous. During my husbands accident he had at the hotel, the staff was great. We appreciate all the help from the staff.

Very nice hotel in a good location.
Diamond Cottage is a very good hotel located 5-10 minutes’ walk from both Karon and Kata beaches. Our room was very spacious with a king sized bed and nice seating by the window. The room had a balcony, although it was a little small and didn't have any furniture on it. The hotel staff were very accommodating and I'm sure they would have provided furniture if we'd asked, but in the limited time we spent in the room, we preferred to be inside using the air-conditioning than sitting in the heat on the balcony. Breakfast was self-serve buffet and the choice of food was very good. We tried to sit by the pool once, but all sun loungers had been taken by 11am when we went down, so we walked 10 minutes to the beach instead, which is actually nicer than a hotel pool anyway, so we can't complain at that. There are restaurants and bars very close by, with several less than 5 minutes from the hotel and a much larger choice available in Kata, which took us between 10 and 30 minutes to walk to, depending how far in to Kata we went. The main Karon restaurants were 20 - 40 minutes’ walk away, but we never went there at night as we preferred Kata. We would stay here again.

Well located but not good staff
Hotel is good and well located. Wifi is disaster (we were provided 5 differents login codes to connect in 4 days). Incident happened on departure day we left at 00:30 to go back to airport with our suitcase. The hotel only has 2 private drivers contacts. As they failed to reach them, they were not able to book a taxi. The receptionnist told me clearly they dont have the contact of Phuket taxi company (is it really a 4* hotels?!?) so he told us to go down in Phuket streets with our suitcases and find by ourselves. I would not recommend this hotel as this is unprofessional attitude for this range of hotel.

Tiring experience all round...
Terrible experience on check out being charged for beach towels when we had actually handed them back to housekeeping to help them out. The rooms and complex itself is dated and a little rundown and far too spread out, I think the architect was a crossfit fan, I spent half my holiday walking between my room and the entrance. There was also no working TV which made me further suspect an exercise conspiracy. The staff were not rude but nor were they in any way helpful - I don't blame them any more than the aerobic loving architect but no-one likes being accused of theft so it did sully the end of an exhaustive stay!

Just across from Beach, nice pools, big hike uphil
wanted to get out of our hotel so saw on expedia this was just across the street for 40 bucks a night and it looked decent. Went to book directly with front desk and was told they only had superior pool rooms left for 2700 baht ( about 110 CAD ).. told her I saw that they did on expedia, she again said no standard rooms left.. So I asked for the wifi and logged into expedia and booked the standard room.. Basically called her bluff and showed her I had booked it.. She then gave me a really hard time about the booking conf# and wanting to see my name on the reservation, which required fully logging into exp. website. NO Other hotel my entire trip needed to see that, they only need your passport ever. Seemed like she was just mad that I had caught her in a lie.. they made us wait until 2pm to check in, it was 1 pm, I went back and spoke with another girl at 130 who gave us the key.. Pillows are hard as rocks. Got sick that night from some other restaurant so booked another night. Got a call at 11am check out time telling us we had to move because someone else had requested our room, (what are we chop liver?) so they tell us last minute that we need to move rooms and housekeeping was there almost immediately while we were rushing to pack all our stuff!.. Overall service from hotel staff was not accommodating.

Not A Good Checkin Experience
We arrived after midnight. The room was so far away that it took at least 10 minutes up and down to walk through all corners of the U shape building. No tooth brushes and tooth paste was probided. The air conditioning emitted a burning smell after running for 15 minutes. We need to change room after all personal belongings were unpacked. English of front desk was poor , difficult to communicate. Breakfast was poor. Apart from all these, others were OK. Staff were friendly and helpful.
