🐒 Blu Monkey Hub & Hotel Krabi Town Review

A Smart, Budget-Friendly Stay Near Krabi Night Market

If you’re traveling to Krabi, you’ll quickly realize that flight schedules are rarely ideal ✈️
Late-night arrivals and early-morning departures are common, which makes choosing the right hotel for your first or last night especially important.

During my September trip to Krabi and Phi Phi Islands, I stayed one night at Blue Monkey Hub & Hotel Krabi Town—and it turned out to be a surprisingly good fit.

This review is for travelers looking for a practical, comfortable, and well-located stay in Krabi Town, without unnecessary luxury or cost.


📍 Why Choose Blu Monkey Hotel in Krabi Town?

Krabi isn’t always a destination where you want to splurge on accommodation—especially if you’re only staying overnight before heading to the islands 🏝️

Blu Monkey Hub & Hotel Krabi Town is ideal if you are:

  • 🌙 Arriving late at night
  • 🌅 Leaving early the next morning
  • 🧳 Planning a short stopover
  • 💻 Traveling long-term or working remotely

It’s affordable, modern, and thoughtfully designed—without feeling cheap or bare.


🧠 Hub & Hotel Concept: More Than Just a Place to Sleep

Lobby and shared workspace at Blue Monkey Hub & Hotel Krabi Town

One of the most distinctive features of this hotel is its “Hub & Hotel” concept.

Instead of a quiet, empty lobby, the common area feels more like a shared workspace:

  • Guests working on laptops 💻
  • Small group conversations and meetings
  • A calm but productive atmosphere

This makes the hotel especially appealing for:

  • 🌍 Digital nomads
  • 🎒 Long-term travelers
  • 👩‍💻 Remote workers passing through Krabi

It’s a place where staying for just one night still feels comfortable—not rushed.


🛏️ Deluxe Room Review

I stayed in a Deluxe Room and paid 52,174 KRW (approximately 39 USD) using a benefit credit card discount 💳

👍 What I liked:

  • Clean, modern room design
  • Comfortable and neatly made bed
  • A cute Blu Monkey mascot inside the room 🐵
  • A terrace with a bathtub (I didn’t use it, but it was a nice bonus)

🤏 One small downside:

The towels weren’t very plush or fluffy.
They were perfectly clean—just not “luxury hotel” soft. Considering the price and the fact that this was a one-night stay, it wasn’t a deal-breaker at all.


☕ Shared Lounge & Complimentary Snacks

Next to the lobby, there’s a shared lounge area that guests can use freely.

Available during the stay:

  • Light snacks 🍪
  • Tea and juice
  • Casual seating for relaxing or working

It’s a small touch, but it adds real value—especially if you arrive late or want a relaxed space to sit outside your room.


🏊 Swimming Pool, Gym & Laundry Facilities

The facilities were better than expected for a budget-friendly hotel.

  • The swimming pool is longer than expected, suitable for actual laps 🏊‍♀️
  • A small gym is located next to the pool 🏋️
  • Coin-operated laundry machines are also available 🧺

These amenities make the hotel surprisingly suitable for longer stays, not just overnight ones.

🌙 Location: Steps from Krabi Night Market

Location is one of the biggest advantages of this hotel.

Right outside the hotel, you’ll find:

  • Krabi Town Night Market 🍜
  • A 7-Eleven convenience store 🏪

We arrived in the evening, left our luggage at the hotel, and walked straight to the night market for dinner.
No taxis, no planning—just easy and convenient.


🍳 Breakfast (Optional)

I didn’t personally try the breakfast, but from what I saw in the morning, the selection looked quite decent for the price range.


⭐ Final Thoughts: Is Blu Monkey Hub & Hotel Worth It?

Yes—especially if you value location, comfort, and practicality over luxury.

Blu Monkey Hub & Hotel Krabi Town is a great choice for:

  • One-night stays
  • Late arrivals or early departures
  • Budget-conscious travelers
  • Digital nomads and long-term travelers

It’s the kind of hotel that fits smoothly into your itinerary without demanding extra effort or expense.

If I come across another BlueMonkey Hotel in a different city, I’d happily stay again 😊
