Categories

Cleanliness
7.4
Rooms frequently described as clean and large, but multiple mentions of an outdated bathroom, a water leak and even a cockroach plus a slightly 'muffig' (musty) smell justify a below-average cleanliness score.
Service
8.8
Staff are repeatedly described as very friendly and helpful at reception and generally attentive; only isolated negative feedback about one rude older breakfast attendant.
Location
9.1
Location is repeatedly praised as perfect/central, next to the bus station and Altstadt — consistently a strong positive in the reviews.
Room Quality
7.5
Rooms are large and comfortable but described as tired and outdated in parts (especially bathrooms), which lowers the room-quality rating.
Amenities
8.4
Pool is frequently highlighted as a big plus, plus parking, bike rental and vending machine options; lack of a bar noted but overall amenities are a clear positive.
Value for Money
7.6
Mixed signals: some guests praise the price, others find it a bit high for the hotel's faded condition, leading to a slightly below-target score.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast is repeatedly described as tasty and freshly prepared though sometimes limited; service at breakfast received one strong negative mention.
Overall Experience
8.8
Overall positive: unique historic/teak charm, relaxing pool and friendly staff create a memorable stay despite signs of age and occasional service lapses.

Pros:

Große saubere Zimmer. Ein schöner Großer Pool. Und ausreichend Parkmöglichkeiten.
Das Frühstück ist sehr lecker, es wird frisch zubereitet.
Die Mitarbeiterinnen an Rezeption und Zimmerdamen sind sehr freundlich.

Cons:

Das Personal , beim Frühstück , ein älterer Mann ist leider sehr unfreundlich und mehr auf das Fernsehen konzentriert als auf die Hotelgäste. Der Fernseher ist extrem laut, so das es stört. Auf Fragen reagiert der Herr sehr patzig und genervt. Als Frühstücksbedienung absolut nicht geeignet.

Zeitreise in den Teak-Palast – mit einem kleinen Badegast
Pros:

Wer das Maeyom Palace betritt, fühlt sich sofort in ein anderes Jahrhundert versetzt. Der Teak-Charme der Lobby und des Hauses ist wirklich einzigartig und hat eine ganz besondere Atmosphäre. Unser Zimmer war riesig, sauber und versprühte pure Nostalgie. Da wir fast die einzigen Gäste waren, hatten wir den entspannenden Pool quasi für uns alleine – herrlich! Das Frühstück war ebenfalls sehr lecker.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist komplett aus der Zeit gefallen. Der Investitionsstau ist unübersehbar, besonders im Badezimmer. Das war nicht nur uralt, sondern bot uns auch eine kleine Überraschung in Form einer Kakerlake in der Badewanne, die wohl auch den Teak-Look bewundern wollte.
Fazit: Ein imposantes Erlebnis für Liebhaber historischer Unterkünfte, aber man sollte beim Bad ein Auge zudrücken können (und vielleicht erst reinschauen, bevor man einsteigt!)

Comfortable and adequate
Pros:

The location of the hotel was perfect for my needs. Very central and close to the bus station. The breakfast was very limited, but adequate for my needs. The rooms are a little tired but they are clean and comfortable. There is no bar at the hotel, but there is a vending machine for beer etc. The big plus were the staff, who were very friendly and one spoke perfect English. There was also a very decent swimming pool.

Cons:

I cannot say that I did not like anything. You get what you pay for in these small Northern towns, and I find it difficult to criticise what is normal for this area

Pros:

Hotel has not been decorated for 50 years, it's in a time warp... but beds and sheets were OK and plenty of hot water in the bathroom. Restaurants in hotel were not open, it was very run down. OK for a 1 night stay. Kids loved the pool.

Cons:

Very rundown needs a total refurbish, but ok for one night.

Eine gute Wahl, wenn man in Phrae ist
Pros:

Gute Lage, nur 5 Gehminuten zum Bus Terminal. Ins Stadtzentrum ist es allerdings weiter. Ein typisches älteres Stadthotel, das aber gut erhalten und gepflegt ist. Alle sind sehr freundlich (auch die Hauskatze), saubere, bequeme Zimmer, schöner Pool, großes Frühstücksset.

Cons:

Die Duscharmaturen müssen eneuert werden. Das Alter des Gebäudes ist erkennbar, aber man macht in Phrae mit der Wahl für dieses Hotel keinen Fehler.
