Visitor Reviews

Would give this place a 5 star, but somehow having a restaurant with a live band right in front the building blasting music until late at night takes away from the good night's rest you could get here. Whoever's idea it was to put a loud bar next to some nice hotels is beyond comprehension. Rooms are nice and clean, location is great minus the above. All in all good value! If you can tolerate the loud music and don't mind waiting, it's worth the money, if you're planning to go to bed early and get up early, look elsewhere! The video below was taken at 23h30 (11h30 pm)

Fantastic value! Great location! Spotlessly clean, with a seriously big room and bathroom, massive bed, quality linens and towels. Easy walking distance to Walking Street. But wait there's more! Own balcony area, great lighting and furniture, and lovely modern buildings makes this hospitality experience complete!

A nice clean well maintained hotel not far from central Pai at a very reasonable price. There is plenty of parking near each room. The rooms have nice amenities and every thing worked.

Tips for Visiting Hotels & Resorts

Book Shoulder Season

May–June and September–October offer dramatic discounts (30–50% off peak rates) with fewer crowds. Weather is mixed but rarely a washout — afternoon showers clear quickly.

Compare OTAs and Direct Rates

Always check the hotel's own website after finding a rate on Agoda or Booking.com. Many Thai properties offer a best-rate guarantee or throw in perks like free breakfast when you book direct.

Pool Villa Doesn't Mean Expensive

Private pool villas in Krabi, Hua Hin, and Chiang Mai start around 2,500–4,000 THB/night — a fraction of Bali or Maldives prices. Search specifically for 'pool villa' to surface hidden gems.
