“Very pleasant stay”

Check in was a hot chaotic as the hotel could not find the reservation I made through a third parttu website. In the end it came through and we got the keys to our room.

Check in was a hot chaotic as the hotel could not find the reservation I made through a third parttu website. In the end it came through and we got the keys to our room. I would call this hotel your classical Thai teakwood hotel. We had a very pleasant stay. Breakfast was good. In the morning, the whole parking lot was empty before 09:30. Clearly hotel used by people on the road/the Mae Hong Son loop.

“Yes, a little dated but very peaceful and pleasant if needing a large full service hotel with the best pool in town!”

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.

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.

“Ye olde world hotel in need of an overhaul”

This hotel is located approximately 2klms from Mae Hong Son city centre but they do have a courtesy shuttle bus in and out of town. It's a classic Lanna style hotel in a beautiful natural environment. A reasonable buffet style breakfast is offered on a lovely terrace overlooking undisturbed greenery. The rooms are spacious but dated. Having to stand in a bath to take a shower is an unwanted legacy from the past. Towels were threadbare too. There is a general lack of property maintenance including badly stained corridor carpets that are in a disgusting condition. However, there are far worse places to stay in Mae Hong Son!

“Dated hotel but reasonably comfortable”

We stayed in the honeymoon suite which was spacious and fronted a nice swimming pool. Décor was wood upon wood. Unfortunately, the air conditioning was poor, the room smelt musty, the WIFI kept dropping out and the white bath towels were very discoloured. The fridge blocks the view of the TV from t… more

We stayed in the honeymoon suite which was spacious and fronted a nice swimming pool. Décor was wood upon wood. Unfortunately, the air conditioning was poor, the room smelt musty, the WIFI kept dropping out and the white bath towels were very discoloured. The fridge blocks the view of the TV from the sofa. Breakfast was basic but adequate with freshly cooked omelettes.
