We are in Hua Hin for Golf but wanted 5* hotel. Having come from the lovely Chedi in Chiang Mai, the Centara is quite a different level of 5*. Room is OK except for the ants and mosquitoes ( and whereas in the Chedi there was spray and anti mozzie plug in, here nothing to counteract them. Bathroom OK, but... More

Wowee what a place. The atmosphere is amazing. Tranquil and very relaxing. The staff cannot help enough. The amenities are first class with three pools, gym, golf practice green and sand trap, plus plus. Can't say enough and would happily stay again.

We stayed in a pool villa with our 4 year old for 10 nights in June 2013. Overall we had a fantastic stay. Our villa was gorgeous, set amongst beautiful gardens, we loved the outdoor shower and used our pool late afternoon which was lovely. We ate breakfast in the Sala Thai and it was fantastic, great choice and brilliant,... More

I agree with other comments, the grounds are beautiful, public areas lovely, and the service from the staff is excellent. By way of feedback the staff at breakfast time are over keen to remove your plate, in some cases when you have not actually finished eating (yes I accept this is a minor niggle). Also I was astonished to see... More

My extended family (about 35 of us) visited centara in May 2013 for a short 2 night stay. I could best describe it as a heritage property soaked in history.

The staff are truely fantastic, infact I almost felt humble. Very peaceful resort, yet just minutes walk from hustle and bustle of Hua Hin. My two... More

in general terms, this hotel is perfect. the location is ideally placed between the tourist centre of the town and the beach and close to both. the building and grounds are stunning visually. however, this hotels strongest asset is its staff. they are simply wonderful: enthusiastic, happy in their work and above all, speak good English. this last point applies...

This is my third stay here, but the first time to stay in the main resort section (I stayed in the former 'Sofitel' Villas part of the hotel before on two occasions). This time, I travelled with my disabled mother and stayed in the Garden deluxe suite facing the sea front. This Centara property is well managed. The staff was... More

The reosrt is beautifull and the staff extremely friendly. we were a group of 3 couples and 2 kids and stayed there for 5 nights last week. The rooms are spacious and functional. I stayed in the colonial wing with a garden facing view and it was good. The location of this reosrt is the best in Hua Hina as... More
