Tak Accommodation
- Thread starter rdg_john
- Start date
There are two Suansin hotel locations in Tak; I usually stay at the one which is located on hwy 104 (see previous map posted) at the intersection of Hwy-1.
The two hotels are now run by the founders son, Nat; his elderly father has since passed away.
When I travel north to Chiang Mai, etc. I often have overnighted at the other Suansin Resort on Hwy 104, which is a little nicer (newer) than
the one indicated in the previous post.
All rooms have comfortable queen sized beds, not a Thai rock hard mattress, H/W, TV, Refrig and free and fast (600-kB/s+) WiFi.
A/C rooms currently priced at 380-Bt, Fan rooms 250-Bt
A free breakfast buffet each morning in the lobby: coffee/tea/juice, toast/butter/jam, sweet rolls, etc.
There is also a restaurant on site, mainly Thai/Chinese cuisine...meals 40-Bt +

Viangtak Hotel
A Thai town on a river always has some decent restaurants / pubs / hotels adjacent to the water, and Tak is no exception.
The Viangtak Hotel ticks all the boxes in the "classic" sense of what an old Thai hotel should offer the traveling public - the quintessential "one stop shop" type of hotel!
It's aging and some aspects are a little tired but the rooms are spacious, the beds are very comfortable and everything is within walking distance.
Rates:
The room rate was 1200 THB but includes an expansive buffet breakfast.

Home Inn -Tak
Location: facing the Ping River front, approximately 1km from the Highway 1 bridge

Room Rate: July - 380 baht for a double room
The Hotel also operates a cafe/bar alongside the hotel, and this seems very popular with "locals" as well as hotel patrons.

I found a great place to stay in Tak; Home Paradise Homestay. Home Paradise Resort
Run by an Italian, Delio and his Thai wife. It is a little out of town to the NE, off highway 12 at;
N 16 deg 53.457' E 99 deg 09.539'
It has a swimming pool and large courtyard area.
The room was fine for 1200 baht.
But best of all was Delio himself. Quite a character and very friendly. Real Italian from Ravenna.
He cooked me a great proper Italian meal. Spaghetti Carbonara with chunky imported Italian bacon and hand carried Italian parmesan cheese plus home made bread.
He advised putting lots of olive oil on the salad, Italian style.....
Definately my first choice of accommodation, if staying in Tak again.
