The Chaya Resort and Spa

We stayed there for 8 days! Favorite part was the quick entry/exit to the pool, very convenient. The pool closed at 7pm for a great reason, because water noise is irritating for all residents. There’s no such thing as soundproof, you can hear every everything moving from your room 😝. The hotel brings you another level of experience in terms of traveling … the breakfast early booking system was not the top choice, but the staff was very helpful. We did regret booking with breakfast options because it was a waste of money. Joke aside someday there’s butter Hahah and other days there is no butter (we tried). The room we had was spacious but there was a weird smell of moisture from the wooden furniture. We weren’t able to keep anything in the cabinet because of that smell. The stay is great if you close your eyes on 2-3 things such as the smell, mold in the bathroom, or broken stuff … but we enjoyed this unique experience. Please eat and clean afterwards otherwise you and ants will share the space.

Really lovely staff, nice hotel, a little far from activities but nice enough.

4.5km to/from airport, 9km from/to bus terminal 3. I’d say it’s not a walk distance to Thaphae Gate but still in good location. Warm hospitality by the old man I met on the reception desk (not sure if he is the owner or the manager). For affordable rate, I got spacious room, spacious outdoor area (for smoking), spacious bathroom with bathtub (all rooms are provided). Clean, peaceful, standard amenities but no dental kit, hairdryer, 2 bathrobe provided, extra pillow and safety box are provided as well.
