Amazing
GGuest UserExcellent place! Very isolated and quiet in the surroundings of stunning species, durians, bananas and other plants! And the hosts are the cutest and caring women. Breakfasts are very delicious, the owners themselves cook and add every time some Thai dessert. It was here that was the most delicious mango steaky rice!!!
AAnonymous UserWe had such a great time here!! The staff were super friendly, especially the restaurant team, they made sure we started and ended every day with a smile, which really made a difference. The lodge was surprisingly comfortable for being in the jungle. Everything was well thought out: clean, secure, and completely leak-proof, even during the heavy rain we had. The restaurant was another highlight. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced. Great portions, tasty dishes, and a relaxed vibe, perfect after a day of exploring.
We also did one of the tours offered by the lodge, and it was really well organized. They even provided dry bags for guests who didn’t bring one, which was super helpful. Furthermore, the location was amazing. It is a great spot right by the river. Waking up to the sound of flowing water and birds was something special.
All in all, a place where you feel welcome, well taken care of, and surrounded by nature. We’ll definitely be back!
GGuest UserThis hotel is set in a beautiful natural environment, on a limestone cliff with a lake. It felt like being in a jungle, which was lovely. The welcome was good, with butterfly tea and clear explanations. However, it's quite isolated, facing a departmental road far from the city. They offer a taxi service, but it's too expensive. This means the only accessible dining option is the hotel's own restaurant, which is a major drawback:
- The service is poor: twice, we had to go and get the menus ourselves.
- The staff seemed disengaged and were all on their phones.
- The restaurant closes at 8 PM, which is quite astounding. On our second night, we arrived at 7:50 PM, right after a group of 20 people, and were told only fried rice dishes were available because we arrived too late… we clearly have different definitions of 'late'. Imagine if we had gone on a night safari excursion, or checked in at 9 PM – we wouldn't have been able to eat, which is a real problem.
- Once ordered, the dishes didn't arrive together. My girlfriend had almost finished her meal by the time mine was served (two fried rice and chicken dishes, by the way).
Additionally, we couldn't find a hairdryer, and there was another issue: the room was poorly soundproofed; you could hear everyone as if they were right inside our room.
SSHANNON KAYFun stay in the jungle! Lovely bungalows that were cosy. Friendly and helpful reception staff, cute cats chilling there too!
The restaurant was convenient, however a little overpriced. Luckily it’s not too far to walk into the village so there are plenty of options.
Mainly couples/ families.
Open air bungalow, so had many critters/ frogs/lizards visiting during the night.
EElllee333 ElenaWe have been visiting this place for 8 years already. The place is wonderful, a small oasis at the foot of the mountain. We really like everything. Unity with nature. Authenticity. The sounds of the forest, the chirping of birds. A wonderful view of the mountains. We are happy.
GGuest UserGood clean hotel. Staff will tell and help with the tour to Chao Lan. I was just night and night, but I can assure you that the hotel is good (the more for such a price, just a fairy tale)
GGuest UserThe hotel's location is wonderful!!
Gorgeous view from the room!!
Spacious veranda!!
The room is packed with everything you need!
There are monkeys running around the hotel grounds, and you can treat them to some fruit.
The hotel staff warns you not to leave food, and to close the windows and doors.
Excellent coffee, a view of the river.
It's nice to drink freshly brewed coffee in the shade)))
Breakfast at the hotel... a good selection of dishes, there wasn't enough broth/soup.
There are cafes, bars, and the entrance to the reserve nearby.
We'll be happy to return to this hotel.
