Excellent hotel, in the heart of chweng beach road, but you wouldnt know it once you were inside. Stayed in a hidden pool villa, which was amazing. Restaurant/Bar very good. Small beach and two pools which were also excellent.

Pretty red pool. Great food and drinks. The surrounding areas are a bit tired and dirty. Rooms are a clean with a fresh style. Worth a stay if you want something a little less Thai like. This is more European vibe.

4th time staying here so that gives an indication of what I think. Rooms are large and clean and going undergoing some minor refitting. Staff are incredible, very friendly and helpful and even remembered things from my last stay. Beach is amazing too. Great for couples. Not so much for families. Can’t recommend more!

I had a great time at The Library. It's a unique property--and one I'd heartily recommend. The room was modern, clean and quiet, and I had a view of the beach and water from my balcony. The beach and pool are both excellent. Also loved the awesome breakfast and awesome staff. I'd go to Koh Samui again just to stay at this hotel again.

Quiet as a…Library

The Library lives up to its name as it was very quiet and peaceful but also close to the main area for bars and restaurants. Service was 10/10 and very clean but could do with a little (just little) post COVID spruce up.
