Quick verdict: C & N Resort and Spa — solid Patong location with inconsistent execution
Overall rating: 4.3/5 from 354 reviews. Guests consistently praise the location close to Patong Beach, but multiple reviews reveal gaps in facilities, accessibility and service consistency that matter depending on your priorities.
What guests liked
- Central spot: roughly a 10-minute walk to Patong Beach with restaurants and travel agents within easy reach.
- Convenience: a Seven Eleven sits directly across the street for quick essentials.
- Staff and housekeeping: several guests described the staff as friendly and respectful, with room service and housekeeping reported as reliable.
- Reception praise: one reviewer highlighted a trainee receptionist for particularly good service.
- Clean rooms: multiple reviews explicitly stated that rooms were kept clean.
- Pool enjoyment: at least one guest called the swimming pool nice during their stay.
What guests disliked — concrete issues to consider
- Access and layout: the property requires a steep climb from the road to the lobby and additional stairs to reach the lift; one guest said the lift does not serve the area where they stayed, forcing frequent stair use.
- Night conditions: lighting around the property at night was described as inadequate by a reviewer concerned about safety when walking to rooms.
- Animals and odors: reviewers mentioned around 10 roaming cats and an unpleasant smell of cat waste across the premises.
- Room inconsistency: some guests found rooms dated yet well maintained, while others reported air conditioning that did not cool properly, uncomfortable beds, and a fridge that barely chilled drinks.
- Breakfast mismatch: one guest reported an advertised buffet was not provided and that the hotel served a limited à la carte menu instead.
- Power and emergency response: a reviewer experienced a lengthy power outage at night, reported there was no emergency backup power, and said staff offered a half refund of 675 Baht; the guest consequently moved to another hotel for 3,000 Baht.
- Pool size and usage: another reviewer found the pool very small and rarely used, contrasting with the positive comment above.
- Perceived favoritism: at least one guest felt staff treated guests from certain countries better than others, affecting service quality in that instance.
Contradictions exposed by reviews — what that implies
Reviews diverge on several measurable points: pool quality, room condition and staff behavior. Those contradictions point to inconsistent property standards rather than uniform failure or success. When a property receives multiple reports of both clean, well-serviced rooms and distinct maintenance issues within the same timeframe, it suggests variable room-by-room conditions and uneven staff responses rather than a single systemic quality level.
Practical, evidence-based booking tips
- Ask specifically which floors and rooms are lift-accessible before you book if stairs are a problem for you.
- Confirm breakfast format with front desk on arrival if a buffet is important to you; reviews show at least one instance of à la carte only.
- Check in and test your room AC and fridge immediately; one reviewer had to pay for a deluxe upgrade because their original room was uncomfortable without any discount offered.
- Inquire about emergency power backup and the hotel’s refund policy for outages; one guest reported no backup and only a partial refund of 675 Baht after relocating overnight.
- If you dislike animals or odors, ask about the presence of cats on the property before confirming a stay.
- Bring both payment methods: the property accepts credit cards and cash, so prepare whichever you prefer.
- Compare recent reviews across platforms and inspect recent guest photos — one reviewer advised not to rely solely on property photos.
Who this place suits — and who should look elsewhere
Good match: travelers prioritizing location near Patong Beach, easy access to local restaurants and tour operators, and basic clean rooms at short notice. Not a good match: guests with mobility issues, people sensitive to animal presence or smells, and travelers who need guaranteed uninterrupted power or consistently strong room climate control.
Final note: the property is open 24 hours, which helps flexible arrivals, but the mix of positive and negative guest reports means a little extra questioning at booking will go a long way toward avoiding surprises.
