LLung TsangThe hotel is located in walking distance from Songkhla old town/night market, and refurbished out of an ancient if not heritage building. It showcases the beauty of Thai Chinese interior design: every single display item brings back lots of nostalgia from the good old rosy days. The only drawback is the sound insulation as I could hear the convo from my fellow visitors next doors during my stay and also the sounds from outside (cat meows and roosters singing). Luckily i had my ear plugs so still managed to sleep. It seems the rooms on ground floor are nicer than those at second floor.
AAnonymous UserThe location is very convenient, with easy access to Samila Beach and the Old Town, and just a short walk to the Friday and Saturday night markets.
ววินวินSome rooms have poor air conditioning. There is a lot of parking space, it is convenient. It is near the beach but the beach is not very beautiful. You have to walk through the pine forest for 2/300 meters. Breakfast is porridge or breakfast set. The room is quiet and private.
JjanjilatepGreat location, and the staff were friendly and helpful with good recommendations. However, the room itself was a bit old, I could constantly hear the refrigerator, and it wasn't soundproof.
SS.AEKThis 3-star hotel in the heart of Songkhla is a popular choice for budget-conscious travelers and those who enjoy a relaxed pace, thanks to its 'great location + good value for money.' However, there are both pros and cons to be aware of before booking.

GGuest UserI had a pleasant stay at Viva Hotel Songkhla. The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were friendly, and the location was convenient. Good value for money, though the Wi-Fi could be faster. Would stay again!
LLiyu ChenThe hotel staff is very kind, the service and reception are excellent!
Made our trip to Songkhla very comfortable and perfect.
The room space is comfortable and the environment is well-ventilated.
Breakfast was served in the rooftop restaurant, with a great view and great food, overlooking the lake.
It's a pity that the bathroom space in the room is relatively small, but it doesn't hinder the overall praise!
TTanrukI really like the place to stay. Clean, good service, decorated to make you feel like you're coming back to visit a relative's house. The photo angle is very good. I like it a lot.
