I had a very pleasant stay here. Would recommend and stay again in the future. Breakfast had a nice variety and staff were friendly and kind as usual in my Thai experience. I loved the entire experience in Chiang Rai!

We had no complaints on this hotel and in general enjoyed our stay, however unfortunately the hotel is not well kept and is becoming a little run down. We believe some renovation was happening, which led to noise at times but compared to other properties we stayed at in Asia there seem to be no efforts to keep the general grounds tidy (in particular dead leaves everywhere and the lakes and gardens looked messy). The shower head in our was broken and we only had a bath tub and no shower. But other than that no issues with the room. The property is outside of town so taxis are required. Great potential with some investment and whilst no major issue, we left a little disappointed.

The place is good, just needs a little bite of repairs to make it look in good condition again.

It’s nice but it’s a bit run down. I’d say it’s more a 3 star with nice service. Breakfast could be better but we didn’t prepay so only did it once. It is secluded but close enough to easily get a ride. Staff are great which we find to be true all over Thailand

Do not pick this hotel based on the photos. As others have mentioned. The property today does not match those images. It is very run down. Our room had a broken shower head that leaked water everywhere. Plus you could not change the temperature on either the shower or hand basin. It came out boiling hot. Its a shame as the property has so much potential if it was maintained and upgraded. Having said that if you are aware of what you are getting, then its not the worst place to stay. Staff are lovely and super helpful.

A nice rural hotel which needs some TLC

A nice hotel in a quiet rural area. The rooms were clean and we were a large group of friends with several rooms. Some were older than others and other reviews said that the lodges were a lot nicer but our rooms were good value. The hotel is quite far out of town and the pool was closed for maintenance. Clearly the pandemic has meant that certain things can’t be updated as the gym was very old and musty and the breakfast and breakfast room need updating. I would stay here again but it would be nice if the site was better maintained although I understand in the present circumstances this is difficult. We paid to go to a big hotel on the last day so we could use a pool so it might have been nice if the staff had offered something complimentary to compensate for the fact the facilities couldn’t be used- when guests are scarce it pays to look after them.
