The Palm Garden Hotel

The location is a bit out of town area (within small factory area) where taxi has to be called in order for guests to go elsewhere. No lift - better ask for ground room. What are lacking are made up by the good hotel services and nice buffet breaksfast.

Nice comfortable bungalows in a pleasant garden setting with a fantastically attentive staff. We were a bit concerned about the security of the room, as the sliding doors locked together, but they could be slid to one side to allow entry by a small person. We were assured it was not a problem. At least there was a safe in the room.

6 jours à Chiang Rai au Palm Garden, réceptionnistes à votre écoute, belle chambre très calme, frigo avec eau gratuite, clim, TV, accessoires de bain, changement des draps et serviettes chaque jour, wifi dans la chambre, .... . Le buffet petits déjeuner offre un très grand choix avec des plats thaïes et européens. Les repas pris au resto sont corrects. Seul bémol, un peu loin du centre, location de moto sur demande (un peu chère) mais nécessaire.

From arrival to departure, we were treated as special people. The resturant was well appointed and the food was equal to any restaurant in Chiang Rai.

The Palm Garden is a basic hotel at reasonable rates. The room was good sized and it had a king sized bed. The bed was hard, but surprisingly comfortable to sleep on. The manager is American and his Thai wife is fluent in English. Other staff have limited English skills, but they will go out of their way to be helpful. Everyone is friendly. The restaurant food was better then the food in town and reasonably priced. The hotel is away from the center of town in a quiet neighborhood, which was a treat compared to other hotels. A one way ride to town costs 80 Baht, about $2.66 US. I would stay here again and recommend this hotel to othes.

Simple, spotlessly clean, friendly and comfortable are the words to describe the Palm Garden. I imagine the few palm trees planted in the front entrance/car park are responsible for the name of this hotel but there is no garden to speak of. But it was the quietest accommodation I could find in my research and I'm rather glad that it is a 10min tuk-tuk ride from the town centre as it is far too hectic and noisy there for my liking. The tuk-tuk journey is fun anyway and costs only 80 baht. Free Wifi is available in the hotel lobby and I had reception in our ground floor room. The only disadvantage to the ground floor is that noisy guests arriving can wake you up as the place is tiled from wall to wall making the acoustics very loud. Our room had a TV, mini-fridge with water, wardrobe etc. It is true that the showers have those little heaters which means the water is never actually hot, but warm enough in these temperatures. We were able to borrow a hairdryer from reception. The air-conditioning in our room was too cold to be kept on at night, but then again in December the evenings are cool so wasn't necessary. In the building opposite is a little restaurant that belongs to the hotel. Breakfast is a simple but sufficient buffet. We had nice Thai food for dinner here but some western food is also.

Esta bastante bien para el precio que hemos pagado

It was a great location as it is within a 5-10 minute drive from the center of town. I am not just saying this, but the food at the hotel restaurant was probably the best Thai food we had in our entire 2 week stay throughout Thailand!!! Their tours were a bit expensive in comparison to what we were able to get. Since Chiang Rai is a bit smaller you can be like us and rent a tuc tuc or taxi for the day that takes you everywhere you want to go. It's not the cheapest option, but we definitely saved a lot of baht instead of booking with the hotel. You can actually ask the guy who does the hotel tours to tell you how to get to everything and he is absolutely helpful. He even drew us a map for us to know what points of interest to look for when going different places. The room itself wasn't anything special and they only have a small curtain covering the shower area, but it's a good deal for the price. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone going to Chiang Rai.

호텔스 닷컴에서 2일을 예약한 후에 마음에 들어서 4일을 추가로 묵었습니다. 호텔은 크지않고 시내에서도 조금 떨어져 있습니다. 치앙라이 공항에서는 약 20분정도 거리입니다. 시내까지는 택시로 채 10분이 안걸리는 거리이지만 나가려면 택시를 타거나 똑똑을 타야 합니다. 저는 귀찮아서 모터싸이클을 렌트해서 타고 다녔습니다. 위치상의 문제만 해결된다면 지내기에 아주 좋은 호텔입니다. 직원들은 아주 친절했고, 방은 항상 깨긋하게 정리를 해주었습니다.아침부페는 간소했지만 깔끔하고 맛있었습니다. 차후 이지역에 다시 온다면 꼭 다시 묵고 싶습니다. 가격 대비 아주 탁월한 호텔입니다.

The hotel is on the eastern edge of town and is about a 20 minute walk to the centre of Chiang Rai. If you don't mind walking or catching a ride into town, this is an excellent hotel. The staff were very nice, the room was clean and well kept. I was the only person staying there (low season) and they still made a full buffet breakfast. It was very quiet at night. I'd stay here again, no questions.
