Visitor Reviews
Booked three rooms for my parents and relatives and were welcomed with exceptional hospitality from the moment we arrived. The warm reception and thoughtful service made us feel right at home. We were also delighted by the playful cats roaming the property, adding an extra touch of charm to our stay. Breakfast and desserts were not only authentic and delicious but also beautifully presented. Every detail felt carefully considered, making our experience truly special. I would return in a heartbeat!
Stayed 2 nights. Beuatiful hotel and I would certainly recommend. Genuine traditional Thai experience. Rooms were lovely, food was amazing and staff were excellent!! Thank you for making our stay so perfect 👌
Amazing atmosphere with old Thai style vibe. Food was great and looked amazing! Worth visiting!!

Learn the Spice Scale
Say 'mai pet' for no spice, 'pet nit noi' for a little spice, or 'pet mak' if you want it Thai-hot. Most cooks will default to a toned-down version for foreigners unless you specify otherwise.
Follow the Crowds
The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.
Ice Is Safe
Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
