2008-10-12	Novotel Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae The hotel is little bit old and the room was not very clean. As the Novotel seems to work very well with big groups, especially companies seminars and team buildings, the staff doesn t make any extra effort to be polite or helpful.	Very good service!
Iskra Andreeva-Aleksoska 2008-10-06	Novotel Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae Great hotel, huge and beautiful garden, suitable for families with small children. Nothing much around, but plenty to do inside the hotel. Would go again.	excellent as always
DM 2008-10-05	Novotel Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae Cooool! I like this hotel. It s not expensive. They have many accomodations. I like Jacuzzi but i think it s too small. The breakfast is quite good.
Risto Tuiskula 2008-04-17 until 2008-04-20	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae Very nice hotel, good location on the beach which is nice but outside the hotel area there was really nothing to see (street side), just a couple of local restaurants only. We did try both the restaurants and they had good and tasty food allthoug they didn t look very welcoming. The beach is nice and has some local bars with local food. The hotel has nice cafeteria and the spa did a good pedicure. If you look for peace and quite, this is the place.	excellent
Colin Lawrence 2008-03-23 until 2008-03-28	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae Hotel is very good, staff very friendly and food is good. I read earlier reports about Karoke next door, lack of sun beds, etc and none of these concerns are valid today. The only thing I would like at the hotel is to have a nice bar where people can go and relax and chat in the evening. What they have is linked to the restaurants and not ideal to relax. The main concern is the area, there is not much to do there and once you have had your meal in the evening, that s it - I have never had so many early nights. The gardens of the hotel are fabulous and the gardeners must be applauded for such a result. Hotel is great for a short stay or if you are a dedicated sun worshipper. Try and go for an upgrade to a suite, I paid 1500 Baht extra a night and it is really worth it, huge balconey, big sitting room, big bedroom, large bathroom, two TVs, twin AC. Colin Lawrence	no concerns
Sally Stevenson & Philip Brown 2007-08-14 until 2007-08-20	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae We loved this hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean, the food delicious and the swimming pools were great. We loved the constant breeze from the sea and no mozzies in sight! There is not much to do in surrounding area but I would definitely recommend a day trip to Koh Samet - the most amazing beach and nice beach bars to relax and have a few drinks. I would definitely stay here again.	Very quick to respond to my questions. Easy and efficient.
Ho Pui Yee 2007-07-03 until 2007-07-06	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae The resort is approx. 10 mins by car from Ban Pae. Only a few restaurants around but the food/drinks in the hotel are quite pricy. There are activities organized by the hotel every day and free shuttle bus to Ban Pae. Rooms are ok and staffs are friendly (although English is not very good). Spa is quite good and worth to try. A nice break with sun and beaches and not too far from Bangkok but not much to do, in particular at night time.	Very good.
Shindy 2007-05-11 until 2007-05-14	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae the hotel was very pleasant and clean. the rooms are a little on the small side and the rear rooms have only foliage and no view. the best rooms are the inside facing the pools. the staff were really friendly but only speak a little english it was sometimes hard getting ourselves understood. overall a great stay and would stay again.	my credit card failed and because no one contacted me or it did not flag up straight away it caused problems when we got to hotel. there should be a way to confirm the booking within 2 hours.
Francis Panych 2007-03-24 until 2007-03-28	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae The staff are very very friendly and efficient. The service is excellent. We have been to this resort many times and will return. It is secluded and a perfect get away if you just want to relax on the beach or by the pool. The breakfast is good. The restaurant food is also good, especially the green mango salad and seafood salad...nice and spicey! The buffet dinner though is really overpriced and not that good.	The booking service was very good and we will use this service again. Sawadee.com was fast and efficient.
Mrs Louise Wolf (UK) 2007-02-22 until 2007-03-08	Novotel Coralia Rim Pae Rayong, Rayong, Ban Pae This is the third time we have visited this hotel. It is clean and comfortable and in a quiet area which is less touristy than elsewhere so this is why we like it. I would call it a 3.5 star in comparison to European standards. The service for breakfast and meals in the hotel is a bit laid back and no one comes around to ask you if you would like to order lunch or drinks when you are in the pool areas, which could be seen as a disadvantage to some. There are a couple of very good beach bars one for drinks and snacks and one for meals; both are run by the same Thai couple Pol and Gap (she is an excellent cook) a short stroll away. Also, two restaurants on the main road side of the hotel as well, both good and reasonably priced. (Chomtalay and Kims)Overall we will return!	As always, easy to use, efficient and fast. I would not hesitate to recommend to others.
