Hotels with Bars in Phanom

The hotel is located in a very beautiful spot, and the view from the hotel grounds is simply stunning. It's perfect for a one-day stop, but no more. The room is a small, detached bungalow with its own separate entrance. I didn't like the bed; the mattress was old and the springs were terrible. There weren't enough towels, in my opinion, only two. The prices at the on-site cafe are high, but that's understandable given that there's absolutely nothing else around for a 20-30 minute drive – no shops or cafes. So, it's acceptable for a short stay. Otherwise, everything was fine!

Fun 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.

We were pleased with our choice of this lodge, despite a few issues. We spent three nights there. There are duplex and single cabins, but we had a separate cabin. The cabin was clean and smelled pleasant. The plumbing was generally in good working order, with good water pressure and hot water from a tankless water heater. Shower gel, shampoo, and soap were provided. The air conditioner worked well and had a remote control, although the mosquito nets kept slipping off their tracks when opening and closing them. A hairdryer is available at reception. Cleaning (trash removal) is daily, and the water is replenished. The concept of the hotel is interesting, they offer different programs (trekking of different duration, Cheow Lan Lake, night (or rather evening) hikes in the jungle, caves and so on. The prices for activities are not cheap, we went on a night walk in Khao Sok (2800 baht for two) - interesting, we saw a lot of insects, amphibians, monkeys, birds - everyone was sleeping. Prices for other programs for adults per person from 2 pax: lake from 2600 to 3900, elephants 1600, rafts 800, dinner in the jungle (in fact, on the territory of the lodge) 1200, trekking programs from 1900 to 3300 depending on the duration, night hikes 1900 Khao Sok and 1500 Khlog Phanom, caves 3300. Within walking distance from the hotel for an independent visit there is rafting on bamboo rafts (we paid 700 for two), a cave (20 baht per person + fish food included), and the Instagrammable Bridge Hill Cafe. The hotel has its own small trekking trail. Meals: breakfasts are okay; they prepare what you choose from the menu (one dish), the rest is bread, jam, butter, cereal, fruit, tea and coffee are freely available, including loose-leaf green tea and coffee from a coffee machine. I didn't really like the food in the restaurant; it was too simple and not particularly tasty, and it didn't match the wine cabinet with bottles costing several thousand baht. Lunches and dinners were generally disappointing, but inexpensive. But the view from the restaurant during breakfast is simply gorgeous!!! In the morning, you can watch squirrels scurry and listen to the songs of gibbons in the forest from the lodge balcony. The staff is very friendly and always ready to help. Overall, I liked the lodge; it's a great location for exploring the area, especially if you have transportation.

A magical place! It was like living in a botanical garden :) Peace and quiet surround us. The cottages are clean and cozy. We stayed in room 22, and no sounds from the main street reached us. The receptionists are attentive and caring. We booked all our excursions through them, and there were no issues, the guides were excellent. The girls always wish you a safe trip and good luck, and then rejoice with you when everything went well. The breakfasts are delicious and varied. The location is excellent! The park entrance is 5-10 minutes away. Opposite is the Bamboo bar and restaurant on the second floor with a beautiful view. The hotel description matches the photo.

Hotel with a view to the mountains, but in the morning nothing is visible from the fog, perhaps at the sunset otherwise, arrived at 7 p.m. without problems settled, the cafe is not expensive, but works until 8-8:30 p.m. The rooms are clean. Ask for a pledge of 1000 b.m. About 45 minutes to the lake

The photo that promotes this hotel on trip.com features a lake and raft houses on the lake. This is not the reality for this hotel, although it does provide tours that visit this lake, and so initial expectations were not met. However if you want my review of the actual hotel, here goes. The family run hotel provides a cool place to stay for physically fit guests and people who do not suffer too badly with vertigo. All the rooms are tree houses, reached by narrow walkways through the subforest at different levels. The rooms vary in size and height to suit everyone, from 4m to 15m up in the trees. Central to the complex is a nice outdoor pool. I loved it, but remember in humid tropical locations infrastructure does not last long, so don't get upset if a table collapsed or a handrail comes adrift, there is a guy who fixes everything. Food available all day, home cooked and reasonably priced. The hotel.is only 2km from the park gates so location, location, location. But definitely no lake!
