The Houben

Accommodation and facilities:
Uber modern hotel, excellent service. As it is a small hotel, more intimate, not sharing facilities with lots of guests, get to know the staff. Room very modern with views to die for, particularly the sunsets. Would definitely recommend to others, hope to return

Accommodation and facilities:
This is a minimalistic hight class hotel with a hint of Thailand. We had a deluxe room with direct acces to to the pool. Very nice room and very beds beds and linnen. Very nice staff. Great breakfast, alacarte. Nice food in the restaurant (western and thai). We stayed 3 nights, and will sure stay again! Tip: choose one of the two suiterooms (actually bungalows).

The Houben

Accommodation and facilities:
WOW!!! My wife and I spent 3 nights at this amazing boutique hotel and regret that we did we couldn't stay much more. The Houben is the one of the best experience we had in Thailand when it come to hotel and a place to stay. It has only 15 rooms two of them are suits built on an unbelievable cliff. We stayed in one of them. The view was breathtaking, the design state of the art, the food was great and some time even more, considering that the hotel is open less then a year and is still in his trial-run period. The hotel was constructed by a Belgian guy and his Thai spouse. The design is top modern till the last small details, the infinity pool is astonishing, the bar is like if it was taken from a movie. If you are a bit concern about not having a beach next to the hotel don't worry, 5 min walk you'll find a great one. After staying in a few boutique hotels in Thailand we can say that The Houben can be named in the top list and in any Boutique Hotel magazine. The most pleasant surprise was the service of the hotel staff led by the owner daughter Shana. She made our stay so wonderful that it was really hard for us to leave. In the end of the day The Houben made it worth for us to travel all the way to Koh Lanta. The price per night make this hotel the great value one all around, but we think that this prices will not hold for too long as this hotel id down prices and as soon as it will start to run normally and the amazing new spa will be open the price are going to be significantly higher. Any way we are going to come back to this precious place.
