Pai Hotsprings Spa Resort

We got the best room, which had a balcony on the river and an amazing view. The pool was okay. it would be better if people who weren't staying at the resort couldn't use it. Hot springs we didn't try because they were always full. Had a massage, which was very good. Our balcony had no chairs when we arrived, but after we asked, they brought them asap. Another downside was that they only serve breakfast, and unless you have a scooter, you will struggle to get to any restaurants.

We stayed here for two nights and that was long enough! As someone else said, it does have a lot of potential. It’s in need of some serious refurbishment. It’s in a good location, a little out of town but not too far. Very peaceful. The room we had was basic. The best word to describe it is ‘adequate’. There were 2 beds in the room, 1 super king size and a large single one. The king size bed was terrible! The springs were nearly poking through the mattress and it sagged everywhere. We couldn’t sleep in that! So we both squeezed into the single bed. We made a complaint and all they did was put an extra duvet between the mattress and the sheet. For us, the breakfast was a waste of time. We were informed that our dietary needs would not be a problem but all we could find was a few vegetables and jam on toast.

We booked a standard twin room and it was disgustingly dirty and run down. I didnt want to even use the shower because it made me feel more dirty. The pillow was so hard and old i slept without one. The mattress was hard, old and worn. The location is in some beautiful countryside but this resort is run down and not maintained. The changing room to the hot spring pool was so dirty and dusty and obviously has never been cleaned. The swimming pool also had cloudy water. Restaurant isnt open on a Sunday but the breakfast buffet was also not good as it was mainly Thai food and jars of candy and cakes.

I am staying at the Pai Hot Springs Resort for 7 weeks. I visit Pai every year and stay for 2-3 months a year. I have rented places in the town of Pai before but the places I rent can be loud with young people partying late into the night I was looking to stay at a quiet and relaxing resort away from the party scene. I am quite happy here. They have a big lap pool that is the perfect temp to swim in and to cool off. It is also a great place to get some sun. The 2 hot spring pools are very nice to soak in and relax. The grounds are beautiful and well taken care of. They have a daily breakfast buffet that has several hot Thai dishes , Thai soups, fried eggs, breads, fresh fruit, a salad bar with greens grown at the resort, coffee, tea, juice and much, much more. The best part is that the elephant camp is just up the road and the elephants come to the river off the deck of the resorts restaurant to play. I have watched elephants every morning at breakfast from my table. They are just 50 feet away ! The staff are friendly. If you show them an ounce of kindness you will get a pound in return.The manager Mike cares about the guests, and the operations manager Rut puts out a impressive buffet that changes daily. If you are looking for a beautiful and quiet resort with a friendly staff, great breakfast buffet, elephant viewing, natural thermal pools, a full size lap pool, a big river, mountain views and beautiful landscaping, this is the place. It is 7 KM [ 3.5 miles ] to the town of Pai.
