I think that most tourists visiting Surat Thani are passing through. If you're spending a night here, the Evergreen Suites is a good choice. My room, and I think the whole hotel, were recently renovated. Everything is sparkling clean. It's quiet and comfortable. Note that there's no kettle in the room, but complementary coffee and tea are available in the lobby all the time. There are some nice restaurants nearby, and the hotel isn't far from the bus station.
