Our comments on Thip Residence:
A very nice, friendly and spotlessly clean hotel that's actually very conveniently located (directly opposite Krabi Tropical Beach Resort), despite being "off the beaten path" in terms of tourists. There's a pier to go to Railay and the islands a short walk away, a beach right across the road (swimmable at high tide only; at low tide a bit swampy and rocky), and good transport links to both Krabi Town and Ao Nang. The hotel also offers a tour and activity desk to help you organise day trips etc. and English is spoken well here.
Following the recent revamp to a "boutique" style, the rooms are looking very nice - particularly the deluxe category. They are all generously sized and have en-suite bathrooms and private balconies; some are also available as connecting units for families. They are sound-proofed, or seem to be anyway as there is no traffic noise in the rooms at all (not that the road outside is very busy anyway). There is also wireless internet (WI-FI) available in rooms and downstairs - amazing for the price!
A swimming pool has just been opened (January 2010) in a quiet garden at the rear of the property; this makes Thip Residence a more family-friendly option, as well as truly excellent value for money. The only major downside of this hotel is that there is not much in the way of nightlife or restaurants nearby - in the evenings the area is deserted. During high and peak season, however, Thip Residence will make an excellent budget choice for those who wish to avoid the heaving crowds in Ao Nang while still being in a good position to explore the region.
