Chiang Khong Accommodation

CHIANG KHONG

On day 1 of our recent Laos trip, we stayed at the PORTSIDE HOTEL.

Clean and comfy rooms right on the Maekong with a flat roof which doubles up as a terrace. BYO beer. 450B/night with ensuite and TV.

Run by Miss Gung who previously spent 5 years in New Zealand and is a very nice lady. As the name suggests, the hotel is near the main ferry area and can be seen from the T-junction that goes to Chiang Saen

Cheers,

Pikey.

The price 500 baht a night. Air con, hot water, cable TV.

And the view of the Mekong & Houei Xai

Chiang Khong.

Tammila Guest house and restaurant.

Recommend by David a few posts above, and apart from having great rooms, the restaurant has
really good food, especially the breakfast. Even if you don't stay there try out the breaky while over looking the river.
Far better than eating the crap they serve up on the main road.

*If you do stay there, don't forget to ask for the GT-rider approved honey moon suite.

Spotted whilst doing the rounds in Chiang Khong last Monday 15th November 2010.

A delightful swimming pool

where? At the Nam Khong Guest House

Well worth checking out for a lazy afternoon, when you get tired of looking at the Mekong?

Not yet recommended because I have not used it, but if someone wants to give the gh & pool a go I'm sure it can go in the recommended section.
But test the place out first. :thumbup:

Tammilla is great, I was there just recently and yeah - cheap, right on the river, clean, and surprisingly good food. I stayed in an older room and it wasn't anything fancy - but it was clean and did the job, and at 350 baht a bargain.

Was there last month, they quoted 600 bath for the room, (I think only two rooms left), my miss checked and was not satisfied, so we went to Portside Hotel.

Why you get such a great view from Tammila & room # 12.

My favourite guesthouse -Tammila - was full. Silly me for not booking in advance.

So down the road to check out something new

The Day Waterfront

800 baht a night

Nice clean rooms with riverside views

air con TV Fridge, WiFi

adequate storage

Good bathroom

The Houei Xai - Mekong view at night

The only negatives - shoes / boots off to access your room + the tiled floor in the bathroom is totally dangerous when wet; as is the outside tiled walkway when wet. You all take care now.

The Nam Khong Riverside

a large riverside hotel, popular with tour groups, with plenty of parking.

Air con hot water, TV.

Splendid river views from your balcony

800 baht a night low season

Another new beauty

The Rim Nam Mai

A balcony with a magnificent view

850 baht with breakfast.

Great GPS format for ocean and costal navigation. Not sure about river navigation.
GPS: N20 15.621 E100 24.512
Here's how to convert quicker than changing the format on your GPS.
20 15.621
15.621 / (60*100) = 26.035 Add the degree and for road navigation it will read 20.26035
Do the same for the longitude.

(Sorry David, could not resist. 555)

Hot "Spring": Not sure if this is the best place to post this, but the Onsen at the Teak Gardens is now 100B. Previously you could only use it if you stayed there, as I undestand it. Their walk-up rates are 1200b and up, online prices from 950 and up. I gave it a miss this trip since I had time to explore a bit more for a place.

Baan Rimtang Homestay: Been staying at Baan Rimtang for 350B in a simple room with view over the Mekong, and hitting the Onsen at night. Higher priced rooms available should you want AC etc. Maliwan is the charming Thai woman host, and they have great coffee that she helps local farmers to sell and distribute. Def worth stopping in. Great top floor cafe with nice views., try the eggs that she gets from her chickens. Pics on Google Maps are spot-on.

Thanks for that tip off.

I may go for a soak in the tub @ the Teak Garden myself now.
