Very nice property if you want to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle, but if you plan to visit the city, it is a bit far off from the tourist areas. Also, there is very limited dining options in the evening in the immediate vicinity, and not everyone would be comfortable walking in this area after sunset. That being said, the property is beautiful, the rooms clean, and the staff/owners were very friendly and helpful.

Thanks for your feedback, Eric. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay. I would like to point out that almost all sightseeing spots in Chiang Rai are outside of the city center which only offers some traditional temples and nightlife. So actually, Bambuh offers a great starting point to explore and where ever you stay, you will need transportation. We are only 1 km from the renowned Black House Museum. If one prefers the hustle and bustle of the downtown area, we recommend to book accommodation there. If you want to experiencing the real Thailand, one should consider our place. Indeed, in the evening there are less dining options as we are not located in the city center. I guess that you missed the information that we can offer home-cooked Thai dinner for our guests? And a taxi to the city is easy to book and it is only a 20 minute drive.

The room was a concrete room as opposed to the wooden room on the website. The neighbours’ rooster will wake you up at 5 am. The kitchen opens for coffee at 7 am.

Thanks for your feedback, James. You must be mistaken.... The room you booked is exactly as listed on the booking website (Expedia) ! You did mention this to us and we informed you that an upgrade would be available to a room in one of our traditional Thai houses with a price difference. Unfortunately, you did not reply. Please understand that it is a guest's responsibility to read the room description provided when booking. It is not the hotel's responsibility when you choose the cheapest room and expect to have booked the more expensive room which photos you liked most.To give you feedback.... it was not a pleasant experience for us that you sneaked out without paying your bill for the extra services you ordered.

Beautiful hotel just out of the main town. The site is lovely with gardens surrounding the buildings and a pineapple field to walk through. The room was stunning with an excellent bathroom and veranda. The breakfast was delicious, especially the Khao Tom. The dinners were also a delight, freshly cooked and delicious.

Amazing experience!
This place is a true gem in Chiang Rai. Absolutely stunning accommodation and great food! The rooms are so spacious, clean and modern. The butterflies and birds on the property are also so pretty. It’s truely a little paradise! The owners are also so friendly and extra willing to help out to make sure your stay is a perfect one! They were extra helpful with our special requests and They gave us great recommendations of things to do as well. It’s a little bit outside the city but with their free bikes or scooter rentals it’s not that hard to get into the city. The black museum is near by and so is great food! If you need an amazing place to stay in chiang rai then this is your place!

You must stay here - a slice of paradise Ch Rai
We were booked in for only one night at this beautiful oasis but as soon as we arrived and we’re warmly welcomed, walked through the garden forest to our pod, man we wished we had booked in for longer! The owners were amazing, friendly and helpful. We opted for a home cooked dinner and we were not disappointed. The garden forest is truly stunning and we took great pleasure in exploring, ending in a small stream and views over the rice fields. Our accommodation was beautifully looked after, cosy and pretty. If we didn’t have to get a flight the next day, we totally would have borrowed a couple of bikes (which they offer free of charge) and taken a cycle around the idyllic countryside! Thank you for an incredible stay. We can’t wait to visit again!

Very natural surroundings. Newly build rooms so in perfect condition. We stayed in the Elite chalet. The bedroom area is traditional and vast. The bathroom area is modern and also vast with wet room. There is a large veranda to sit and contemplate. Ya is a lovely lady, hospitable, super helpful and a great cook. Mark is very busy making Bambuh perfect. You are outside of the city for sure but can get back and forth really easily and relatively inexpensively A great little find. Genuine and classy Ya and Mark are also very keen to help your Chiang Rai experience the best it can be by helping you organise any trips or drivers

Positives, beautiful garden, very peaceful and clean. Negatives, greeted with "Yes?

Dear mr. Rolandos. I am sorry to read that you did not enjoy your stay as our guests normally do. Thank you for your feedback. We are a mere 700 meters from the highway and you pass a small Thai village before reaching us at the foothills of the mountains surrounding Chiang Rai. So it's correct we are not a standard hotel along a main road. Most people value this setting. Sorry if it caused you any inconvenience to arrive via smaller roads. You spent a great deal of the morning sitting at our main terrace where other guests enjoyed breakfast and socialized. We had the impression that you were not really into mingling with other people which is perfectly fine as our slogan is "Come and go when you like, interact or stay quiet, and sleep when you feel like it." You are correct that we were preoccupied preparing and serving breakfast the entire morning. It was a very busy day. We sincerely apologise if it gave you the feeling you did not receive enough attention.... We offer a breakfast menu with a breakfast set and many dishes you can order separately at much lower prices. It might have slipped your attention. We can understand that some people find THB 175 for an extensive breakfast set expensive but we strongly believe that the price of food should be defined by the quality and quantity, not because one offers a home-stay setting. And as a home-stay, we always welcome our guests ourselves! I am perplexed by your remark that you were only greeted with "yes?".

An exotic gem, highly recommended
Another gem of a hotel, or rather a homestay, as you are taken very well care of the hosts Mark and Ya. They help you out in every way, and serve home made breakfast when you turn up in the morning, and even lunch and dinner if you tell them in advance. The place is a little outside the city, but that is the point and charm of it. Sitting on your veranda taking in the jungle feeling of the garden, with people working on the rice fields in the far, with the mountains as backdrop, is good for you soul. And Mark understands perfectly when you need a Chang. The feeling is peaceful and secluded, but at the same time it is only 20 minutes or less than 200 bht. to wherever you want to go. If you don't decide to just stay on the veranda and write your memoirs, to the sound of the jungle, the neigbours´ rosters and the odd motorcycle. The place is every bit as exotic as in the pictures, and with a modern bathroom and stabile and fast wifi.

You feel you have walked into your own private jungle with the trees and the landscapes and the peacefulness once you enter. Ya and Marc are amazing hosts. They are readily available to help book a taxi, a driver for the day and to offer recommendations of places to see, eat and shop. Make sure to take advantage of Ya's cooking! You will not regret it.

Great owners and idyllic stay
Bambuh is located about 20 minutes outside of Chiang Rai city centre, overseeing a working rice field and adjacent to a pineapple field. The guesthouse is spacious for our family of 5, and beds are comfortable. We stayed for 3 nights and based our itinerary based solely on Mark's suggestions. With a private driver, we saw the popular destinations such as the White Temple but also ended up in some lesser known destinations such as the old town of Chiang Sae and hiked to an amazing waterfall. Based on owner's suggestions we had a fantastic northern dinner in a spot popular with locals, and an all-day benny diner in a fine English House. Don't bother plan your trip in Chaing Rai, just talk to Mark! Bambuh is not a resort, but a very good guesthouse where you feel the commitment that Mark and Ya has running the idyllic yet modern boutique guest house.

good but expensive homestay in remote setting
good to enjoy nature in remote setting in chiang rai if you don’t want to stay in city center. however be aware that it is quite far from city center and therefore not always easy to get a taxi (also expensive to go to city or other temples). bike rental available for free :) nearby black temple museum and green restaurant which is quite good. prices for homestay quite expensive but nice hosts and unique buildings. if you fully want to be only in nature without sightseeing planned, this place is good.

Dear "anonymous" guest, we are pleased to read that you seemed to have enjoyed staying with us. Indeed, we are not the city center. It would be impossible to enjoy nature as you seem to have appreciated during your stay. We are only a mere 10 km from to heart of the city if you are craving for night life. As you must have experienced, nearly all sightseeing spots are outside of the city perimeter and scattered around our beautiful province so transportation is needed where ever you are based. So actually, we make a perfect base to explore and we are only 1 km away from one of Chiang Rai's famous spots "Black House Museum". You mention that "prices for homestay" are quite expensive. I am uncertain to what you are referring to... we are not just a home-stay... What we list is what you get. So every now and then it sincerely surprises us to get feedback about location or prices.

We are sorry to read that you did not enjoy your stay. Unfortunately, we can not relate why you felt this way as you posted your feedback anonymously. We are very surprised about your comment that the premises and rooms do not look like the photos. Our photos match what you are offered and one of our most received comments is that it is more beautiful than the photos are able to show. Our green oasis near the famous Black House museum is definitely not the city center and that is why our guest choose to stay with us. The main road is only 800 meters away, the vibrant university area with numerous shops and restaurants is nearby and it is only a 20 minute drive (10 km) to the heart of the downtown area. All this is clearly stated in our listing description. I guess you preferred a downtown location.... but then we wonder why you booked Bambuh....

8/10 Good

大自然の中に身を置きたい方向きの宿
ジャングルの中にコテージがあるような、自然が、好きな方に向きます。 テラスから毎日、サンセットが見られます。 自転車の無料レンタルでのんびりと近くをフラフラしました。 珈琲が美味しいです。
