We had a vehicle so found this small but charming hotel very convenient and delightful. The free breakfast was fine, but we never put high priority on that at any hotel. We had three rooms and all members of our group enjoyed the stay. The rooms are clean and comfortable. It was great to arrive in Phrae in the early afternoon and just relax for the rest of the day It was great to arrive in Phrae in the early afternoon and just relax for the rest of the day before leaving in the morning.
Everything is so perfect, except the unfriendly front office girls. They seems they do not want me to book the hotel from Agoda, they said the prices are not that big different, which is around 6 USD. At last, I booked the hotel from agoda, even I wait for the book confirmation to save money and to comment for their service!
Later on, I came back to them and ask for th Later on, I came back to them and ask for the internet password, and they told me with the unfriendly face. But the other departments gave a warm welcome, like security guards, house keepers, and the waiters. No smell on the bed, perfectly clean.
I recommend this hotel if you have a chance to visit Phrae, just ignore the service from front office. Phrae is a bit off the beaten track, so one shouldn't expect to see the same high levels of sophistication as in BKK or Chiang Mai. The pace is slower here, but the people are nicer and the prices are cheaper. We stayed in two different rooms for our 2-night stay We stayed in two different rooms for our 2-night stay, and in both cases, the rooms were clean, in good condition most hotel beds in Thailand are very firm , and had good amenities.
The breakfast buffet, contrary to what some other reviews have said, was excellent, but may intimidate some people who aren't familiar with Thai breakfasts.
