The Imperial Mae Hong Son Resort

The pool, our room was clean and made up everyday and nothing seemed a problem for any department except the reception staff

It was located out of walking distance to town and the courtesy bus did not run that often and nothing in the morning. Reception staff were below average but the rest of the staff were great. Some of the timber work needed replacing due to dry rot

Too far away from town

Everything?

Views of the garden.

The pillows could have been softer.

The transfers to and from the center was good. Bit no guidance to where the walking street was,

The staff were miserable - clearly issues going on, The breakfast was poor - the worst on our 2 week trip so far,

Nice staff, nice old building

Very expensive because old furniture and room, but ok. Lower price and it would be fine.

Driving the Mae Hong Son loop my partner and I stayed here for 2 nights. On the whole we had a good stay here and as we had a car could drive to places to eat and tourist sites, however a few of cons to be aware of which if noted below:

Pool: - pool side is lovely, however only 5 sun beds so difficult to grab one if the hotel is busy - There is poolside toilet however the door is locked so you have to go up to your room for a wee - They serve drinks by the pool which you have to collect from the bar, we had a big bottle of Chang each which came to total of 360 Baht (180 each!) the same size bottle of Chang at the local night market was 65 Baht each Breakfast: - Breakfast was mainly Thai food which we didn’t have a problem with, what we didn’t like was the vast amount of flies on all the food, fruit and sauces meaning we were limited on what we could chose from. They serve breakfast outside so I simple solution would be to serve it inside (or just go for breakfast as early as poss to get it fresh without many flies!) Room: - we had a lovely room which was a bit dated but that didn’t bother us, I did however notice shower mold in the bath room and on the shower curtain which wasn’t the nicest, the bathroom sink also had no plug hole so you could see right down the drain as you brush your teeth - not the end of the world but for the price you’d rather having a nice clean bathroom. For a night or 2 this place is fine providing you have some transport to get you to nearby tourist sites and restaurants. There is a restaurant at the hotel, however after our breakfast experience we didn’t go there, it always seemed so quiet there (likely due to the highly priced food). We drove to a local restaurant called Salween River Restaurant (serve both Thai and western food) which we would highly recommend! Food was amazing and staff were so friendly
