Nai Ya Hotel Sha Extra Plus

We had an amazing stay at Nai Ya hotel. The hotel has everything you need for a nice stay, gym, good breakfast and a fairly big pool. The rooms are definitely the highlight of the hotel. Modern, clean and soundproof. The rooms are close to the pool, so is you want privacy you need to keep the curtain closed. The hotel is located in a quiet part of town, around a 10-15 minutes away from the Bus Terminal and Night Bazaar. The breakfast had a good selection of western and thai food. Some parts of the pool area could benefit from a bit of renovation.

Breakfast wasn’t even Thai food! How disappointing! It was Chinese congee! People who eat breakfast there are always screaming or playing on their phone really loud and the staff don’t care. Our room window was leaking when it rained and well it rained everyday I was there. They don’t even have a latte coffee for breakfast but they have one in their cafe but the actually espresso machine is located Pool side that no body uses. Really unorganized! The hotel is really In the middle of nowhere! There isn’t much nearby. Constantly need a taxi to go anywhere. The staff don’t speak English and often need Google translate. The best thing this hotel had was a great gym and an awesome clean pool! Very refreshing. But July is raining season and it rained everyday off and on. The bed was also the best ever! So soft and fluffy.

The hotel was great value for the price—nice rooms and a good overall look. But one big downside was the limited breakfast options for Muslims. On top of that, a lot of the food wasn’t labeled, making it hard to know what was halal. On the first morning, I called the restaurant staff to ask about which items were chicken and which were pork so we could avoid them. But when we went for breakfast the next day, I saw that nothing was labeled again. To make things worse, after asking the staff, I realized there were even fewer chicken options and even more pork dishes. 😅
