A little leak in the window during a heavy rain storm. Not a big issue, and for the price and the wonderful staff I would definitely recommend.

Color Kata is a great budget hotel. The rooms are very spacious and the WiFi works perfect. They have a full kitchen if you want to cook, and offer free coffee and tea. They have a cute restaurant right next door, where I ate a delicious breakfast and lunch. It’s in a busy area with lots of shops, restaurants, laundry services and massage shops. 15 min walk to the Kata night Market and Kata Beach. Please note that the hotel don’t provide hand soap nor shampoo, but there is a 7 eleven store very close where you can buy what you need at a very affordable price. I recommend the Color Kata hotel to budget travelers.

This hotel didn’t match the pictures. It’s not in a good location. No glasses provided. Girlfriend stepped on broken glass near the bed. Probably a location good for backpackers, not for a typical vacationer.

Foi uma ótima estadia, ficamos muito satisfeitas com o local e os funcionários foram muito prestativos e gentis. O hotel é perto da praia de Kata e cercado por restaurantes e lojinhas. Os quartos são ótimos também. Até recebemos um upgrade no quarto porque ficamos bastante tempo no hotel. 10/10

Ok hotel in Kata

The location isn’t great because you need to circumvent a resort to get to the beach. I wasn’t very impressed with the staff. Also, there’s not real privacy in the room-bathroom has glass doors. So beware of that if you’re traveling with friends. However it’s cheap so I guess we got what we paid for.

Väldigt nöjd!

Väldigt nöjd med vistelsen. Fräscht hotell och bra personal. Hade lite problem med stopp i toaletten på rummet men inga större bekymmer. Tyckte mycket om området också. En kort promenad till stranden och nära till allt. Skulle stannat 3 nätter först men förlängde till 6. Nöjd!

*RAT* in my room *No hot water* Below any standard

The staff here are super friendly and nice but the management clearly do NOT give a monkey what their international visitors think! I am writing to complain about the overall standard of: The Color Kata. There was absolutely no hot water for the duration of my stay. After the torrential downpour there was a significant amount of water that had leaked down the wall in the toilet making the floor wet and consequently, slippery and dangerous. I was offered the opportunity to move rooms, which initially was fine. On my last night I walked into the room and watched a baby rat drop from the art work over and above the bed. The rat half bounced and half jumped down off the bed and onto the floor then ran behind the fridge. As you may imagine I was pretty shocked and wanted to contact reception immediately to get this rodent removed. As I approached the telephone to call reception the rat ran under the bed and jumped up into the gap between the wall and the artwork. In the UK if this same incident happened they would close the hotel immediately. I have absolutely no issue with your charming staff at the hotel, however and unfortunately, in my opinion the hotel is below any international standard. The manager didn't give a monkey and was too busy apparently to talk to me about my complaint. The management feel they addressed the issue with me by upgrading me to the hotel next door, whilst I appreciated this gesture it wasn't convenient to move rooms. A rat in a hotel room?
