Best Pak Chong Hotels

"The hotel is very near Khao Yai national park - it is the perfect place to be if you are looking to go into the national park quickly. there is a very nice village kind of atmosphere - there are plots for farming, rabbits and chickens. The Thai food at the restaurant is decent and the outdoor dining area has a good atmosphere at night. Rooms were nice on first impression and staff were helpful. It was a nice touch to have a welcome drink. A switch was not working in my room and the water in the shower was not strong - the hot and cold water toggles were not working properly. Spotted some dirt stains lm the toilet floor."

"Pleasant stay with a serene view overlooking the lake. Wonderful, considerate & respectful who checked on with us."

"I loved it! The accommodation is so cute and homey. There are even peacocks! The decor is beautiful, and I truly felt relaxed. I just wish they would improve the showerhead in the bathroom; it hurt my skin because the water pressure was too strong and the jets were too small. We bought breakfast separately, and it was delicious and good value for money. I would definitely stay here again if I have the chance."

"It was perfect for staying with a friend! We had a twin room, the hotel room itself was clean and nice and staff was friendly and polite. The location is 10/10 with flower fields right across the road, and the cowboy bar (we recommend) not very far either. Overall - it was really value for the price 😊"

"The hotel is situated within the Movenpick complex. The grounds are incredibly vast, featuring multiple zones and amenities, perfect for leisurely walks and enjoying the scenery. Our room was spacious and fully equipped. There's also a swimming pool for guests to use. While the room itself was well soundproofed and quiet, loud music was unfortunately broadcast over the PA system quite early in the morning. We experienced two power outages during our stay, which was understandable as it was the rainy season. The breakfast buffet offered a great variety of options, and the dining area boasted beautiful views and a pleasant atmosphere. For those who enjoy morning exercise, the resort grounds are ideal for jogging."

"U Khao Yai is absolutely wonderful! The public areas of the hotel are very impressive, high vaulted ceilings and faux French decor, furnishings and nursery rhyme artwork and ornaments - which some might consider tacky but as it’s clearly designed and presented as nouveau, the hotel is offering a modern day take on a French country house / chateau, it does actually work. Highlights for us was the garden view suite (72m2) after which we moved when we extended our stay for a third night to a lake view Deluxe (47m2) as our suite had been sold whilst we made up our minds to stay on! However, we actually preferred the lake view (218) as it offered a far more substantial balcony and a different aspect to the front of the hotel, overlooking the aforementioned lake, fountains, more wonderful gardens and the quite impressive residential houses opposite - and all of this for 700baht or so less a night than the suite. The Papillon restaurant we used for 2 of our 3 nights - a fair selection of “Farang style” Thai food is offered but I personally couldn’t see much further than the fabulous selection of Australian steaks and burgers on offer! Wines by the glass are well priced but further enhanced by the “2 for 1 Happy Hour” between 5-6pm and at all other times “but 2 get 1 free” offer which actually makes buying wine by the glass over 7 glasses, a lot cheaper than buying by the bottle! The service in Papillon was perfect too - laid back, no rushing, a really stylish and welcoming dining experience with fabulously presented food and friendly and efficient waiting staff. The impeccably clean pool area is beautiful too, looking out as it does on the fantastically well tended rear gardens and river although the sun-beds are in fairly short supply at peak use times and strangely there are no parasols on offer. We did also feel that a poolside drinks / snack service should be offered - we would definitely have used it during our morning by the pool which I would add is a very pleasant temperature and has spotlessly clean water. We did use the Spa, having booked a couples 2 hour hot stone massage therapy session and we were both very, very impressed with the spa facility itself and even moreso with the two masseuses who were assigned to us - they are clearly experts in their professions and we came out literally walking on air. Whilst we didn’t have any real lowlights, in order to improve the hotel (and perhaps to attain a 5 star rating from the current 4) I’d offer up the following as constructive criticism:- 1. Change out all your old and outdated in room TV’s. Hotel rooms nowadays simply must offer a Smart TV. We felt that this was a BIG miss and it urgently needs to be rectified as is not in keeping with 21st century hotel accommodation AV equipment standards. 2. Provide proper in room mini and snack bars. 3. The breakfast was borderline disappointing. 4. Be a little cautious of the U’s charging policy for food, beverages and importantly spa treatments. I say this as their (admittedly clearly stated) policy is to add 10% service charge plus 7% tax to these items of expenditure and to their room tariff when booked directly with them. The end result of this was that I booked my rooms (with breakfast included) through Trip.com at a better rate than U could offer and the policy made our two spa treatments menu’d at 2700 baht x 2 = 5400 baht a whopping 6318 baht. All in all the U Khai Yai gave us a memorable and thoroughly enjoyable experience, far exceeding our initial expectations. We are both of the opinion that U Khai Yai’s gardens, lakes and waterfalls, are truly incredible achievements, making the hotel stand out from the regular crowd. The staff should be rightly proud of their achievements in all areas of operation - take a bow Team U Khao Yai, you are going a truly awesome job!"

"The staff didn't seem to communicate much about the activities at the accommodation with the page admin. If you asked something, you had to ask the admin. We stayed in the campervan section, and the staff didn't help with our luggage at all. We were sweating profusely carrying everything ourselves. (Female staff member) - Candle making activity (they were out of candles when we arrived). - Tea making activity (they were out of tea). I work in a hotel too, they should check the bookings to see how many campers are checking in and prepare supplies accordingly. On the day I inquired, there were 10-12 campers checking in. **The BBQ pork is extremely expensive, 900+ baht/set.** They should adjust the price immediately. The cafe is beautifully decorated, but the drinks are very expensive, 180 baht per glass, comparable to Starbucks. Pros: - Good atmosphere, clean accommodation. - Activities like watching movies and roasting marshmallows are available."

"One of the most impressive stays I’ve ever had. The atmosphere of the hotel is peaceful, green, clean, and beautifully maintained. During our visit, it was a long holiday and quite busy, yet we were able to check in on time. The room was spotless, with excellent soundproofing, and the housekeeping staff were lovely. We enjoyed an oil spa treatment and traditional Thai massage — everyone in the family agreed it was wonderful. Every staff member we encountered greeted us with a smile, from the parking lot attendants, front desk, spa therapists, and restaurant team to the pool staff, security guards, and café baristas. For dinner, we tried The Fable Fest and every dish was just as delicious as the reputation promised. At the Rabbit Café, the shio pan and coffee were outstanding — every cup and every bite was delightful. In short, this stay was truly memorable in every way. This is one of those hotels that can genuinely make you smile from the moment you arrive until the moment you leave."

"This was my favorite and most satisfying hotel during this trip, definitely five stars! The hotel is beautiful, and the staff went above and beyond to take care of us. When we thanked them, they just said they'd work even harder."

"Room was super spacious and clean. The decoration was outstanding. Wifi was not that reliable. It was stable, mostly but sometimes it asked us to input password every 5 minutes. Breakfast was variable and delicious. The air conditioner was nice with quiet mode but the quiet mode stayed only 2-3 hours so I needed to have remote control nearby when you sleep as I was sensitive to noice when sleeping). There was a little noice from the louver, as well. There was a huge space inside for golfing, walking, running and biking. The restaurant inside was at standard level with exceptional view but the price is very high (no discount for those who stays at the hotel)."
