The room had dust in the night tables.

Excellent receptionist service, very helpful. Also other staff were nice. The room was confortable and nice. The location is near supermarket, restaurants, laundry and motorbike services. As well, close to the beach with the motorbike. Despite being in the main road you don't listen any sound of the street from the room.

Friendly staff and free shuttle

you do not pre-pay for the room online - you have to pay at the location and they only accept cash, quite a pitty, so be prepared ...

Great and spacious room, plenty of place to store your stuff. AC works very well. They can clean your room as often as you want and refreshen your water. The breakfast downstairs was honestly nice, for 99baht you get quite some food + coffee/tea + water. We found at the top of the first level of stairs an area with free snorkeling goggles and there was a pair that actually worked and helped a lot. (as a tip, you can rent your scooter from Oli's Motorbike rental and there you will get a snorkeling set - so if you are 2 people you dont need to rent/ buy snorkeling goggles cuz you get 1 from the hotel if you are lucky to find it, and one from the scooter rental). The staff is nice as well. The location is super good. Totally recommend!!!

the neighbors are very loud, days and nights, not very considerate of other people

the room was big and clean

Only bad point is the soundproofing, you can hear almost everything (especially the tv and kids...)

Good location and the staff is amazing. Nice restaurant downstairs and low price on scooter

Very friendly staff, beautiful common areas, and a good location. I really enjoyed my stay and would gladly come back.

The only negative would be the lack of natural light in the room.

We loved our stay here. Big rooms and good common area with board games. We loved that we could borrow a picnic blanket and snorkel for the beach. We also hired a scooter for our stay and it was great, no issues there. Staff were simply wonderful - so kind and helpful. The shuttle bus was so handy. Restaurant and shop literally next door with good prices. Be sure to try to icecream shack outside the shop! We would highly recommend staying here. Thank you for having us :)

Great place to stay in Koh Tao! Clean, confortable, affordable, well localed !! I recommand it 100%

Breakfast included was very limited (egg and bread, or cereal) and we didn’t end up having it at all, as we are vegan and no options available. There is a small balcony but not big enough to sit and relax on

We stayed here for 5 nights and enjoyed our time here. The rooms were really large and very comfortable and we slept great here. No kettle in the room but there is breakfast included so hot water/drinks available from 7am in the shared dining area along the corridor. Great location with many cafes/restaurants in easy walking distance, in a quieter part of Koh Tao. They do free pickup/drop off on the island, and we were able to hire a scooter here for a great rate. The lady working in the main office was extremely kind and helpful.

Great location, 15 minute walk from Chalok bay and it's dive schools, supermarket and restaurant downstairs is super handy, and the laundry woman just round the corner made it a super convenient place to stay. Rooms were spacious and the beds were comfy and were lovely and clean and the staff are all super friendly. Cheap bike rental for guests too, they even came and picked us up from high moon cafe when we had a flat tyre and brought us back and sorted us with a new bike. Great value for money all round!

Really good place to stay in Koh Tao. The bed was very comfortable, the AC cooled super well and the staff is very friendly. Gi knew how to attend to all our needs. We were going to stay only for 5 nights and we ended up extending up to 9 nights. I would definitely go back to this place! (Most of the island was without electricity several times because they are making renovations in the electricity supply , but the hotel apparently has its own generator because we always had light!)

The side that our room was on didn’t get much natural sunlight. It’s a bit pricey for what you get compared to other areas in Thailand.

We loved the location on the island. So many good and drink options within a reasonable walking distance and there’s a nice sop right next door. About a 10 min walk down to the beach with nice places to hang out. The staff was really friendly and professional. They provide housekeeping when you need and also can rent you a scooter for a reasonable price.

This is the most satisfactory hotel I have stayed in Koh Tao many times. The room is very large and clean. At the same time, it provides a very honest motorcycle rental service. The owner of the front desk and the staff in charge of car rental are very good. The only drawback is that it is not very convenient to dry clothes on the balcony. If it can be improved, it will be very Perfect! I will choose here again next time.

Electric cuts a few times per day, short ones though. No plates, bowls, cutlery in the room and quite hard to get some from staff as they don’t really speak English. Nonetheless great stay.

Great locations, good restaurants and facilities around it. Nice, big and comfortable room.

Aukotan is a good budget hotel on Koh Tao. It is basic, but if you’re planning on exploring the island, you don’t need much more than a basic hotel. The beds are on the ground, but they are really comfortable! There is also a store right next to the hotel where you can get everything you need (even a small yoghurt for breakfast with a spoon, perfect)

Stayed in May 2025

Could be loud in the evenings as you could hear noise from the street and also other guests coming and going from their rooms.

The hotel had its own restaurant, supermarket, and scooter hire. They pick you up and drop you off to the ferry terminal which is an awesome extra. The air conditioning works exceptionally well.
