Hotels Near Wat Bang Khlong in Sukhothai

You know the score. One thing goes wrong for you and then everything seems to be wrong, so read this as a ”what can happen” not what always happens. Firstly the positives - there's a nice pool, the staff are friendly and polite like most Thais, the omelet was Fab at breakfast (and proper coffee is a pleasant rarity), the bed and bed linen were comfortable. As Jethro (the Cornish comedian) says...what happened was.... We arrive down a dusty back road/dirt track. The two young staff (friendly etc) cannot speak any other languages than Thai. We check in and go to our ”bungalow”. It's not what we booked, in fact it's a room that is available for two thirds of what we paid. At this point I have to say that's only £10 and thus no biggie, but 400Bahts is a big extra profit over here. Worse, not only does it not have a TV (again not bothered as we haven't watched one for two weeks), or a fridge but it's shabby, with beaten up old furniture and the shower is cold. The young girl wants to move us, but no, the young lad fixes the shower and brings an old fridge in. The room is still pokey and shabby and has no desk (there's a wooden bench if you like that sort of rustic!). Unlike other rooms who have patio sets we have a rotten wooden seat outside, we have nowhere to hang clothes and no TV but hey ho, we will bear with that because we just can't be bothered! The other minor issues: food is pretty average, though fairly cheap (we've been spoiled a bit with fantastic street food and restaurants in Bangkok and Koh Lanta). It's not a short walk to anywhere except the bus stop for the old City which is about half a mile. WiFi is pretty unreliable and mainly bad. I went to the bar for two Thai Rums. I got them, albeit measured, and there was a tiny bit left in the bottle which I thought she'd just pour into one of the glasses but no. Now I've owned bars so I thought aha, she'll pour it into the next bottle - good economy really. I return for another shot to find there is, in fact, NO other bottle of local rum! I return to the shabby bedroom slightly irked. I could go on but I'm sure you get the drift. If you get room B3 then know this - it is (should be about a tenner) cheap but you get what you pay for and breakfast and the pool are good. The shower room is laughable if you're not already too hacked off to see the funny side.

A great hotel, the structure is similar to the usual five-star beach hotels, with frogs croaking in the evening and birds crying in the morning. I really like this hotel anyway, it is very suitable for vacation.

Friendly service, takes good care of customers (but when going to the room, there was a slight problem with the room door. Waited a little long. But the owner hurried to do it) The location is good. But the bed makes a loud noise when sitting up. Turning around makes a loud noise. So I don't dare to turn around. Afraid that the sound would disturb the next room But overall it's good.

I still have one night to go. But our experience has been fantastic. We came with no expectation and were totally surprised with the beautiful property, the helpful staff and good food. The rooms are big and spacious. Bathrooms very clean. The property itself has a lotus pond at the centre and a rustic yet elegant vibe and feel. Look forward to tomorrow night and to try out the spa.

This was part of a package tour. The property is quite charming and rustic...with a Thai feel throughout. The room itself was a bit quirky but in a good way. There is a river flowing through the middle of the property with lots of trees. This is good and bad since there seems to be a lot of mosquitos. The restaurant had decent breakfast and dinner. The property is close to the historic landmarks. It is possible to walk out of the property for local restaurants.

We loved our stay here and it was one of our favourite hotels on a 3 week tour of Thailand. Even before our arrival our correspondence with Poolsin was friendly and efficient and she kindly booked our buses and taxis which was incredibly helpful. The room/bathroom was very clean with lovely decor. The pool was a good size and temperature (surprised how cold some others were) and a welcome relief from the heat. Very good breakfast provided and they sell drinks, beers, ice creams to refresh you during the day/evening. The location was perfect for visiting the sites (hired bikes from the hotel). There’s a very pretty restaurant next door and others back towards the town only 10 minute walk. Definitely much better than the places we saw in the Main Street. Thank you for making our trip to Sukhothai perfect!

not very far rom the old city, ca rent abike with 50 baht per day.nice staff, higly recommend. one more thing, the spa in the hotel is good, come to my house and with good skill.

The friendly staff, the cleanliness, and the amenities make this guesthouse well worth the price. The bikes are fairly priced and in good condition, and there are more than enough available. Every staff member went above and beyond to help. Our room was extremely clean and comfortable. The pool area was clean and spacious. We highly recommend this guesthouse.

He also arranged a long-distance bus on the way back, and thought about a Sukhothai tour plan according to the departure time of the bus, and he responded very kindly and politely. The rental bicycle was a little old and the saddle was not adjusted, but there were about 10 cars and it was free. The room was large and atmosphere, and it was a great stay in Sukhothai.

I happily stayed here for 3 nights. Sukhothai Garden ticked all boxes. The historical park is walkable. Many choices of breakfast from Thai to Continental. Coffee, tea, water, ice, cup noodle and fruits are available all day. We can have breakfast while enjoying a beautiful garden. Room is simple and clean with hot shower, fridge, television and balcony. Towels and slippers are clean. The location is heaven. Restaurants, coffee house, convenient stores are in walking distance. It’s so close to the market make it convenient to get food to give alms to monks at dawn. Plenty of bicycles to borrow, including ones with child bike seats. Owners and staffs are very friendly, attentive and helpful. The owner’s wife made breakfast for their guests and she also shared me her family meal to try some local food. I’ll come back again definitely!
