Concierge "The bloodred-tiled pool is the dramatic centerpiece, with huge pillows and daybeds beside it. High white walls and black-lacquer floors provide museumlike backdrops for Thai antiques."
Fodor's "This place is so fun that it's worth a visit for its amusingly hip decor—check out the white figures reading books on the lawn, inviting you to lounge as well." Full review

Condé Nast Traveler "In crowded Chaweng Beach, this 26-room hotel’s high style attracts a stream of beachcombers (prepare to show your key to the hotel gatekeeper)." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The minimalist white rooms are striking and the restaurant called The Page is excellent."
Star Service "Even from the airplane, this resort stands out on Koh Samui's crowded Chaweng Beach, thanks to its distinct and dramatic red-tile swimming pool." Full review
Rough Guide "High-concept design hotel, based around a library of books, DVDs and CDs with computer terminals."

"This place is too cool for school, which is ironic since it's called 'The Library'. The entire resort is a sparkling white mirage accented with black trimming and slatted curtains." Full review
OysterLuxury
"With its superb design and striking red-colored swimming pool, The Library is arguably the hippest luxury beachfront resort in Koh Samui." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "There’s nothing like relaxing on a beautiful beach with a good book, and the luxurious, modern The Library hotel set along Koh Samui’s famous Chaweng Beach takes this notion to the next level." Full review
