This was my first time in Cha Am / Hua Hin in the last 10 years. I was so impressed with Ace of Hua Hin. The property is beautiful, clean andstylish. Staff are so prompt and friendly. They have can-do attitudes and always said yes to my request no matter big or small. I highly recommend this hotel. As a person who worked in many five-star resorts and above, I will be back again next time I will stay attached the pool access room.

Nice Hotel
The concierge and restaurant staff are all very friendly & helpful. Hotel experienced power tripped for at least 2 hours each during heavy rain on 9 & 10 May 2023. I was told it was due to strong winds that caused the trees to damage the cables.

Great family Chinese New Year break
My family had 3 rooms and all of them were great. Check in was easy and friendly, be aware that the booking only includes breakfast for 2 adults it was £6 extra per day for breakfast for a child. The food at lunch was fine, but very expensive compared to outside restaurants - but it is a high class hotel so that is normal. Easy to get to restaurants nearby. Beach and pool fantastic, we’d be delighted to revisit... thanks all the staff for looking after us.
