If any hotel deserves to be called a design hotel, it is certainly HTE LIBRARY. Everything has been designed first class and I was completely delighted. The staff is super friendly and very helpful. The hotel is ideal for someone who wants to escape the hustle and bustle of the party mile. Will be back!
The best part of the property is the pool and the Restaurant page. You do not have to stay here to access pages pool. I stayed on page 7 and the room was large and clean. The bed is a mattress on an elevated floor but it was extremely comfortable. The sheets very soft. Water pressure in shower amazing. The hotel service was fine but not five star worthy. Food at the restaurant was great during dinner. I ordered the Massaman curry with sea bass. Very nice. Highly recommend. Certificates on computer in room need to be updated so I wasn’t able to use. I was able to use the computer at the lobby so that is a plus but if you are expecting five star like St. Regis etc. then you may be disappointed. The part of the beach this hotel is on is swimmiable but not as calm as some other parts )towards the other end past Love beach club). I did like that there were two swimming pools and one was exclusively for hotel guests and they did try to keep casual beach goers and instagramers away. Breakfast was beautiful but room temperature. Not freshly prepared of heated as it could have been. Stay only if you get a good deal under $300 USD per night. I wanted to live it but it was just ok to me.
We upgraded our room to the Bookmark it was huge, largest bed I’ve ever stayed in. Clean with a Full sized fridge, day bed, lounge area and study desk with Mac PC. Shower was large and water pressure good. Bidet toilet also. We had a jacuzzi in our room which didn’t work consistently. Maintenance had to be called to use it and every morning the water had dropped and was nearly empty, The bathroom lighting needs attention very dark not great to do make up in. Breakfast is a la carte. It’s okay, nothing to rave about. Pool areas exceptional and clean along with the bathrooms in common areas. All in all a great experience and location is top notch for beach and Main Street.
Loved this hotel. Not cheap but well situated, great room very big and clean and stylish. Gorgeous pool and also right on the beach. Had dinner at the restaurant one night which was also delicious. The gym is well equipped for a quick morning workout and the staff were very friendly and helpful.
I had an amazing poolside massage with Fa, and I can't recommend her highly enough! She was incredibly smiley, welcoming, and made the whole experience feel so relaxing from the moment we met. Her technique was superb — clearly very skilled and capable, knowing exactly how to work out tension while keeping the atmosphere calm and enjoyable. The setting by the pool made it even more special. If you're staying here, do yourself a favour and book a session with Fa — you won't regret it!
