Book Ban Phae hotels

The room had SUN hitting the window all day! The room was 50 degrees and took 4 hours to get to 35 degrees! The room needs to be shaded from the Sun or run A/C 4 hours before guest arrive! We stayed here 4 times before but never on the HOT SUNNY SIDE of the Hotel! The Pool is Nice and the food brings us back each year! I will ask for a room on the shade side next time! I didn’t know! lol

Like the quiet and friendly service feel like staying with family

If you have time (we had a month) and you are feeling jaded then a week at Saku boutique homestay is for you! Hosts Saku and Denny - two enterprising, sprightly characters will attend to your needs, provide airport shuttles and even dinner and laundry (if needed). They are two entertaining guides who want you to have a great time. We took an excursion with them to Chang Rai - blue temple and the white temple and a tea plantation. Saku and Denny are experienced hosts and worldly wise with a great sense of humour - ‘if you please’. 😉 Super clean and super friendly, the homestay is out of the hustle and bustle of the city centre but this means that you can relax, unwind and use fast wi-fi to plan. The plunge pool is a must on a hot day, especially after a trip to the hosts’ organic lime farm or Chiang Mai’s wholesale flower market. Thoroughly recommend. Hire a moped - the local back lanes are full of surprises and interest.

Great staff, good rooms, enjoyable stay for 3 weeks

Nice and comfortable, the bedroom was in great condition and balcony was really nice. Air con was also working, although we didn’t need it for our stay. We did notice a spot of old blood on the duvet but it seemed like a stain, and was otherwise definitely clean. They also provided a kettle and coffee for the morning, and assisted us with a late check in.

Basic place, a little out of town. Some mould on walls in bathroom and sink in the kitchen area. Good that there was a microwave, kettle, kitchen sink and a few pots.
