The front desk staff was great so was the food at the restaurant. The pool was worth the visit alone. There were only two negatives points worth mentioning. The hotel is built into the side of the hill/mountain. The rooms slope up along its elevation. My room was the next to the last room at the top and was not always fun to climb to. The housekeeping was mixed at best. They completely ignored my room on one day and didn't replenish my water or coffee on three other days, even if they had taken care of the rest of the room.

There's no breakfast, restaurant and bar are closed all the time. It's very very noisy and the smell of the cannabis shop is coming to your room. The AC was hardly working. Most of the staff is nice but some ladies at the lobby were really unwelcoming. They don't answer the phone when you call.

I like it
I've stayed here three times now. I like the location because it's far enough away from Chaweng Beach Rd to be quiet but still only a shortish walk. The WiFi isn't free and paid WiFi not great and it is set on a slope so a lot of steps to walk up... But I like it and will stay here again :)

No elevator
The room was ok however it was a hill room and meant we had to go up 20 flights of stairs as there are no elevators which was a lot, clean and nice room however not many plug sockets and not much lights in there, the room only got cleaned one day out of 5 even though we never asked for it to not be cleaned, it was ok for a short stay but we were glad to leave

A couple of hiccups but would stay here again
This was my 2nd stay at the Nova. The first was just 2 nights and no issues. This time was a week and I had a couple of minor problems. I will get to them later as I don't want to give the wrong idea - this is a good place to stay and I would stay here again.
It is less than 10 mins walk from the Central Festival shopping centre which is the largest in Samui. It is a bit over 10 mins walk to Chaweng Beach which is the main spot for night life. I was alone but it would also be a good place for a family.
I had a Junior Suite which had two rooms plus a bathroom with shower and bath. Room 1 had a large single bed, lounge suite and coffee table. Room 2 had a king size bed, TV, fridge, desk, wardrobe etc... Both spacious rooms, a bit dated, but comfortable with separate air conds.
The resort sprawls over a sloping hill so depending on your room placement you may have to walk up quite a few steps. There is a large pool and the food is ok for the price.
The problems I had: One day I had no water due to a broken pipe. My hot water system broke down on two separate occasions. My air cond broke down four times. I must say though the staff were very attentive and rectified each problem very quickly. Also the WiFi kept dropping out which was annoying especially since I had to pay extra for it (only 300 Baht for 1 week).

Wifi awful, it says something when even the shacks on the beach had better. Pool area and pool bar looked derelict, nobody ever stayed around it long enough. We are not normally beach people we prefer a good pool which was the main reason i chose the Hotel for the stunning pool, It was so depressing we ended up on the beach every day. The pool Waterfall !!! as in the Hotel photos never worked, when i asked about it they said not enough people, so we weren’t important enough to turn it on !!! no atmosphere whatsoever we felt like we didn’t belong. Breakfast not worth paying extra for , Staff need better training in food hygiene, food left uncovered to flies and not by the guests, by the staff. Bathroom grotty, shower curtain black mould , never ever had hot water in the sink, Legionella risk. Shower plug hole Disgusting black slime and hair very bad drain smell coming up from it. I tried to get hold of Expedia to change Hotel but to no avail. Spent all our time out of the Hotel because it was so depressing. Was more of a Motel, certainly Not a Resort. All in all a complete waste of hard earned money, a very disappointing stay, i could of cried. I might add that my Family and i are well accustomed to Thailand and have travelled extensively around South East Asia and know what to expect. But This Hotel lacks in care and attention.

Beautiful pool close to downtown!
Pool was beautiful with poolside massage available. Rooms were beautiful, a little buggy at times. Breakfast is simple and a little expensive if you eat at the hotel. No elevator. Our room was at the top of several fights of stairs but cozy and clean! Walking distance to night market, waterfront and a big mall.
