Hello everyone, members. Today I'm free, so I'd like to review the accommodations that I've stayed in. From the beginning of my travels until now, there have been some in the hundreds, some in the thousands. Some I paid for myself, and some I got for free. I'd like to say in advance that this is a collection of accommodations from the beginning of my travels, so some of the pictures may be blurry, tilted, or discolored, depending on the evolution. Oh, and for each accommodation I've stayed in, I'll only have pictures of the room I stayed in. And some places may have fewer pictures, as I didn't take many pictures in the beginning because I wasn't writing reviews yet. Okay, if you're ready, let's go!





Let's start with Amphawa. Our accommodation was called Baan Prakai Kaew Homestay, a large riverside house that can accommodate dozens of people. The price at that time was probably around 3,000 baht, but I'm not sure. It's been many years since I went there. There are several rooms in the house, which is a 2-story wooden house right on the river. It has a washing machine, a kitchen, and everything you need. There is a balcony where you can sit and enjoy the cool breeze by the river. It is suitable for groups, and the surroundings are quiet and private. The owner is kind and friendly. He took us to our room and then left us to our own devices. When I stayed there, the owner, Mr. Banchob, arranged a boat for us to go to the Amphawa Floating Market. The boat picked us up right at the house.



The second accommodation is in the Hua Hin area. I've been to Hua Hin three times and have stayed in various types of accommodations, including beachfront houses, beachfront condos, and private pool villas.



The first stop is Baan La-ong Dao, a beachfront house. This is a large house right on the beach with a relatively private beach. The house can accommodate 10 people. When I went, the price was 6,000 baht per night for 4 bedrooms. There are 2 bedrooms downstairs, one of which has a mezzanine floor that can sleep 2 more people, and 2 more bedrooms upstairs, which are accessed by stairs outside the house. There is a kitchen available, and if you want to have a small party, there is a barbecue grill. However, you will need to buy your own ingredients, as the entrance is quite deep and secluded if you want to go out at night.



The second accommodation is a beachfront condo. I chose Baan Saen Kram Condo in Hua Hin. During my trip, the price was 4,100 baht. I found it through an agent on Facebook.


There are many prices to choose from, so you can choose the price that you think is okay. This is a condo by the sea, but the sea is not very playable and there is not much beach area. If you want accommodation with a sea view, this place is okay. There is a swimming pool surrounding the condo. You can swim from the front of your room or swim in the large pool by the sea. The room that I chose is on the lower floor because I wanted pool access. It has 2 bedrooms and comes with kitchen appliances. You can easily prepare simple meals.



This is the last stop of my trip to Hua Hin at Cae Villa Huahin. This trip was a bit more special because it was our wedding anniversary trip. We booked it months in advance because we were afraid we wouldn't be able to get a room. I really like this place. All the rooms are private pool villas. When I stayed there, the price was 3,500 baht. There is no breakfast included. If you want breakfast, you have to pay extra. The rooms here are quite spacious. There is a separate bedroom and living room. There is a bathtub outside and a private pool to relax in. It is a fenced-in area, which is good. This is a place that I really enjoyed.



The next accommodation that Som went to stay at was in Chonburi province. She visited two places: Sugar Beat and Hilton Pattaya.



Let's start with Sugar Beat Resort. This is a budget-friendly accommodation with rooms in both building and separate house styles. I chose a room in the building, on the ground floor, with parking available in front of the building. The room has a bed, refrigerator, TV, hot water, and air conditioning, just like any other hotel. For the price, it's definitely a good value.



Next is the Hilton Pattaya. I got this for free from a Facebook activity. I didn't check the price.


The Hilton Pattaya Hotel is located on the top floors of the Central Festival shopping mall. Upon check-in, a 2,000 baht deposit is required. The room I stayed in was a KING HILTON DELUXE room with a sea view. It was on the 29th floor and the view of the sea was stunning.



Next up is accommodation in Chanthaburi province. I chose to stay at Laem Sing Beach. It's Laem Sing White House. The room rate is 2,000 baht.


On the day I went to Laem Sing Beach, I couldn't swim because the water was very black. The villagers told me that there was a storm the night before I went, so I couldn't swim as planned.

The accommodation is in a separate building, with only a small road separating the house from the beach. There are several types of accommodation available here, and there is a small swimming pool for children to play in.



Let's continue to Kanchanaburi Province. For this trip, I stayed at The Vista Pool Villa. I chose this place because it has a private pool villa again. I really like private pools. And the price here when I went was very cheap. The price was 2,000 baht with breakfast served to the room. The accommodation has many prices. The room I stayed in was a Deluxe Pool Villa. It's the starting pool villa room. Just this is great.





This time, let's head up north to Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, and Nan.



My first stop was Chiang Mai, where I stayed at Sleep Box Chiang Mai. The prices are affordable, ranging from a few hundred baht to a few thousand baht. There are many types of rooms to choose from depending on the number of people in your group. On this trip, I stayed in the Smart Box room for 1,300 baht. The rooms here are container-style. When I first saw them, I thought they were cool. I also enjoyed my stay there. It wasn't crowded, and it's not far from Tha Pae Walking Street, which was convenient. I didn't take many photos here, and I didn't write a review, so I only have a few photos.



The next day, we went up to Mon Cham and stayed at Mon Ing Dao. It's a house with tents available. I chose to stay in a room with two 6-foot beds. There were 5 of us that day, and the price was around 2,000 baht. When we arrived, it was already late, the wind was strong, and it was very cold. Fortunately, there was food and a barbecue service, so we sat down to eat and warm ourselves up.



Next up is Chiang Rai province. I chose to stay at Baan Non Plern, which is also a budget-friendly accommodation. On the day I stayed, I booked room number 8 for 990 baht. It's a wooden house, available in both two-story and single-story options. What's special about this place is that they prepare ingredients for breakfast, and guests can cook their own meals. It's simple food like frying eggs and toasting bread, which is fun because it feels like being at home. The owner is kind and very helpful with recommendations.



Our next stop is Nan, where we stayed at Nan Lanna. It's another budget-friendly accommodation with single beds, double beds, and rooms for 3 people. It's a 2-story building with about 10 rooms. The place is quiet, and the price when I stayed was 690 baht. It's right next to Wat Khuaeng Mueang, so you can walk to Wat Phumin and the Lilawadi Arch.



Another accommodation in Nan that I would like to take you to is Doi Samer Dao. This place has a camping area with both tents for rent and tents that you can bring yourself. There are no houses to stay in.


Doi Samer Dao is located in Sri Nan National Park, about 77 kilometers from Nan city. The road up is not difficult, the road is good, and it is comfortable to drive.

The entrance sign will be on the left hand side. The park has tents for rent, the whole set costs more than 300 baht. The park entrance fee is 20 baht per adult.

If we bring our own tent, the camping fee is 30 baht per person and the parking fee is 50 baht per car.



This time, we're heading down to Ubon Ratchathani. For this trip, I'm staying at Hop Inn Ubon, which is a hotel chain with branches in many provinces. And most importantly, it's very affordable.


The price on the website is 550 baht, but if you add Hop inn line, you will get a discount of 100 baht, making it 450 baht per night. The accommodation is up to the standard of a general hotel, which is worth the price.

When I went to stay, there were a fair number of guests, but it wasn't too crowded.



This is my first trip to the south, and I'm so excited to be here at The Beach Heights Resort in Phuket. I got my accommodation for free from Facebook, and I'm staying in a pool access room. It's in a separate building from the main pool, so it's very private and quiet. I haven't seen many other guests here, which is great. The price is very reasonable, only 1200 baht per night. The breakfast buffet isn't very extensive, but the food is delicious. Most of the guests seem to be Asian or European, with only a few Thai people. The hotel is located in Kata, and it's just a short walk to the beach. There are also plenty of shops and restaurants in the area.



That's all for the hotels I stayed in during my trip. I usually choose hotels that are not too expensive, but if it's a special occasion, I might splurge a little. I also consider other factors, such as the location and amenities. It's not worth it to choose a cheap hotel if it seems risky. When choosing a hotel, it's a good idea to check multiple websites and read reviews from other guests. However, it's important to remember that everyone has different preferences, so what one person finds acceptable, another might not. I hope this review is helpful for all travelers out there.
