Best Hotels near Wat Thung Samo, Thung Samo

Although it is not at the top of Khao Kho, the view was really pretty where the owners didn't turn it into an extremely commerical area, there were still more greens than building. However, if it does rain at night, you are in for a challenge; keep the kamikaze light flies from entering your room (trust me - they infested everything in the room, including the bed!!!) A simple & fast hack is to lay toilet paper to block all the entry areas (eg: window & sliding door openings, any loopholes that was caused by wear & tear) & turn off all the lights when you sleep. The night flies will kamikaze themselves outside anyways.

The hotel is located on the side of the road and read the reviews. Many people said it would be a bit noisy, but they didn’t find it when they actually checked in. The breakfast was quite satisfactory and the price/performance ratio was good

Booked this with 2 friends together as we are on a road trip stayed here for 1 night only. The location of this hotel is only 17 mins away from Wat Phrathat Pha Sorn Kaew Therefore the price was very good for a night stay. As this area is in the mid mountain you will wake up with fresh air and beautiful views of greenery. Room is really spacious it would be even better if the interior deco is given a slightly modern touch while retaining its identity as the moment stepping into the room you will feel that you are back to 70’s Toilet amenities is basic ... no bed room slippers ready unless you request Oh and also you have to pay for utensils if you not not using in room dining service Lucky for us their set meal for dinner is superbly affordable for 3 course.

The accommodations was so cute unique and not same with another hotel. The room is very clean and have a lot of space in front of the balcony can enjoying the moment with a fantastic view. The best place that recommends to stay.

Stayed in the Hillside rooms. Comfortable , simple clean room with balcony . The resort is nice , service was good. Breakfast was more Thai style with some fried eggs and bread corner , cornflakes etc. Parking is available. Wifi also available. Connected is the adventure park for activities and peak to take pictures .

3rd time here ever since it opened around 2015. Only 5 exclusive units that looked onto the twin ridges of the fog shrouded mountains in the national park. A lot has changed over the years. The stylish café above has now expanded. There is now a restaurant block cast in glass and a new hotel rendered in grey like a Star Trek Borg Cube is now under construction by this same establishment. There is also now a parking lot and still, all these developments are not able to cope with the marauding horde of weekend and holiday crowds. This mountain where Pino Latte stands had gain popularity at an exponential rate. With popularity then comes unrestrained developments by other investors. There are multiple resorts encroaching on this once desolated mountain. There is one big Chinese restaurant further up the narrow road. I used to gaze out from behind our unit in Pino Latte back in 2015. It was only pleasant green and the two futuristic star-dock structures of the café above. Now as I gazed the surrounding, it is a chaotic clutter of property un-synch with the once mystical avant-garde vibes which the lone Pino Latte used to offer. I still like Pino Latte even though the price for a night’s stay is rather extravagant. On the right day with the right combination of climatic events, misty fog mask out the new eyesores that were constructed in recent years. And rooms are well maintained, they did not deteriorate too much in this humid environment from the first 2 times I was here. Breakfast is now served in the restaurant block instead of the common café where public guest aplenty. Ala-carte styled, perfect scrambled eggs and grilled asparagus I had. We also had the boiled rice which was served centerstage in a large dim sum bamboo basket surrounded by an assortment of condiments. The food layout was certainly trendy. All good things said, the noncontrollable factor of stampeding weekend crowds plus the excessive destruction of surrounding nature probably means this is the last time I am going to be here. This region has lost her magical touch. I wish we can turn back the clock, but we know we can’t.
