Hotel berhampiran Wat Na PA Paek, Mae Hong Son

Sang Poy is simply superb…graceful, peaceful, beautiful… Sang Poy Cottage is everything that is evocative of Thailand and more! A place that has been built from recycled Teak in the traditional Thai style and decorated with a great deal of thought and soul. I loved the attention to detail, and there were many… the handmade floor tiles… the timber fretwork above the shower, the beautiful timber flooring on the verandahs. Modern amenities, a very comfortable huge bed, great shower,complimentary toiletries, bottled water, fluffy towels, well appointed room, sliding glass doors out on to a private quite big verandah to sit and enjoy the views. A hairdryer and a straightener which is not often seen in hotels. Breakfast and dinner are served on a huge verandah overlooking picture post card views across the fields and the mountains beyond. Wonderful breakfast, both western and Thai. Parking is available if you are driving. A garden to sit in to read or just soak in the views. The owner speaks English both she and her staff were absolutely fantastic, helpful and wonderful... I was given a great map of the area with all the things to see and do. A wonderful, kind and helpful owner who speaks excellent English. A fabulous restaurant on site with the best breakfasts I have had all over Thailand! excellent beautiful staff… thank you!

The peaceful Lanna style resort is about 8 km from the city. Staffs were very nice and so generous. They kindly offered a free room for our guide and driver :). The resort is divided into several zones. Our room was a Lanna style house in a vast shady garden. The room was clean and comfortable. It had a wooden floor and the decoration was in Lanna style. A fine buffet breakfast was held in the Lanna hall that provides a good view of Pai river and a green field at the opposite bank.

The hotel is located slightly out of the town centre… 10-12 min on foot, might be a bit tricky if you don’t drive. The management photos certainly don’t represent the true state of things, incl. swimming pool area and the actual rooms. The room itself was spacious enough and functional, however there’re certain things that took us by surprise to say the least. First of all, there’s no proper bathroom, instead there’re two microscopic spaces designated on a side (shower room & toilet) + sink located inside the room! Pillows super hard and difficult to sleep on, no hot water while taking shower only lukewarm at best. Next, the walls were full of various stains & marks, the bulkhead area (where the air-com unit was located) was all damp with plaster hanging in places, ready to peel off anytime. The space designed for the luggage was inadequate hence its wasn’t possible to spread anything down there which was a shame. Finally, for some unknown reason, on the terrace there’re no chairs or tables which again turned out to be a wasted space… On a positive note, the reception staff was very helpful and positive at all times. We liked the area around swimming pool since there’re not many people hanging around at the time. Air con worked well, so did the mini fridge & safe box. Strong wifi signal across the room and decent size TV. After we checked out, I asked if we’d use their luggage storage for 24 hrs and they happily agreed. Overall, there’s plenty to be improved in this type of hotel, in particular those few practical / aesthetic issues. I can’t say we didn’t enjoy our stay, however some of the things that I mentioned bothered us quite a bit and should have been resolved differently. I hope the management can take a closer look and address those matters in near future.

Ideaal gelegen vlakbij het meer en de Wat. ‘s avonds een heel gezellige avondmarkt. Kamer was schoon. Personeel erg aardig en het ontbijt uitstekend met keuze uit Thais ontbijt en Westers

Charmante guesthouse, située au bord du lac, et près du marché de nuit, dans un environnement calme. Accueil chaleureux et personnel aux petits soins. Les chambres sont très confortables et reposantes avec tout le nécessaire requis pour un séjour réussi. Wi-Fi efficace, piscine, parking, vraiment une belle et bonne adresse

Very basic place. A bit run down though.

If Maehongson has a 'grand dame' of a hotel, this is it. It's the largest hotel and in theory the one local hotel that can offer full service options - catering for meeting and banquets/ receptions that are often held here by government officials. It arguably has the most beautiful and largest large pool in MHS, overshadowed by tall teak trees - very peaceful to swim in and/or just look out at from your poolside room. Rooms are large with comfortable sitting areas - AND as others have commented, they feel dated and somewhat worn - but they are clean and quiet, each with a decent sized balcony and I believe most rooms have a bathtub! Plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Most surprising to me was that the wifi was strong and worked great the entire stay. I did not expect this. I appreciate the wood floors and furnishings throughout the hotel. I was given an early check in which was so appreciated. A basic buffet was available the first day with made to order eggs as well as fruit, cereals and Thai options. On my 2nd day, the buffet options disappeared and it was just made to order eggs and cereal/toast/fruit/coffee and tea - apparently the buffet only happens if there are over 30 guests and this being the green season, numbers are down. Staff were helpful and friendly and there is an onsite massage available. The hotel is just outside of town so not really walkable into town - but if you have your own transport, this is a great option. And it is a great option if you just need a peaceful break from a mostly full service hotel with a beautiful pool. Long stay rates are also available beginning at 9000 baht  a month currently. 

Stayed for 3 nights. Overall, the accommodation was clean, and the staff members were kind. There is a strong smell coming from the shower drain, so you should keep the bathroom door closed. It's a good idea to have a car or bike to get around or explore the area.
