Lovely hotel just a few minutes walk to the beach. Staff was attentive and friendly, they quickly remember your name and room # for room charges. The rooftop pool has a great view of the city and beach both day and night. The SkyBar is a nice spot for drinks or food.
The food at the hotel is excellent and the portions are generous, its so nice to be able to order room service after a long day out!
The Breakfast buffet is also excellent with many options that vary by day. Cooked to order eggs and omlettes are available as well as Thai favorites, noodle dishes, rice, sausages, pastries, cold meats, salads etc. Its a great value as well.
Tours are easily arranged at the front desk and you can pay for them on your final bill. Pick up is right at the hotel which is great, I did 3 day tours, all were excellent.
My room was serviced daily and kept spotlessly clean.
I highly recommend the Alani, the staff alone make it desirable as they are just wonderful.
