Sang Poy Cottage

Looking to book a beautiful stay in MHS? Look no further, with a fantastic view overlooking the rice field, huge balcony with nice spa jacuzzi and well decorated room. Not forgetting the nice delicious English breakfast too.

It is a small hotel on the side of the road, about forty-eight-minute drive from Ban Rak Thai and 11-minute drive from Mae Hong Son. There trees, a garden and rice fields on all sides. I booked a deluxe room but was upgraded to a VIP room (V01), there two such rooms, which is slightly bigger with a big balcony with a Jacuzzi in one side. Both room types are on the first floor. The room is spacious with a long settee under the window, but with no writing desk, no chairs, no cupboard and no storage space like drawers etc. There are two small bed-side tables with no drawers. There is an open rack for hanging clothes but with one cloth hanger, other two hangers are used for the two bathrobes. There is a small bamboo table with the two chairs in the balcony. The bathroom is divided into three parts, shower, WC and wash basin area, which is a good idea. There are toiletries and a good supply of towels. The lobby is open space overlooking the rice fields with reception on one side, sitting area and the restaurant tables. The room has no TV and no phone, there are no tea making facilities. You can request an electric kettle, but it depends on availability. The room overlooks the back garden and the balcony overlooks the rice fields. There is small fridge with a good supply of bottled drinking water. There is also an air purifier. There are four set choices for breakfast, no buffet. The food is good if you have to eat in the hotel. All other rooms have a view of the trees, no view of rice fields or mountains. The First-floor deluxe rooms are a better choice, they are spacious and have better furniture with a table, better chairs in the room and the balcony. There are six rooms from S01-S06, S06 is the corner room near the road, the first three are better. Same applies to the ground floor rooms (P01-P06). But upper floor has better view. The bed is comfortable, the Wi-Fi is good. This a good value hotel for a night or two stay on the way to other places.

Sang Poy is simply superb…graceful, peaceful, beautiful… Sang Poy Cottage is everything that is evocative of Thailand and more! A place that has been built from recycled Teak in the traditional Thai style and decorated with a great deal of thought and soul. I loved the attention to detail, and there were many… the handmade floor tiles… the timber fretwork above the shower, the beautiful timber flooring on the verandahs. Modern amenities, a very comfortable huge bed, great shower,complimentary toiletries, bottled water, fluffy towels, well appointed room, sliding glass doors out on to a private quite big verandah to sit and enjoy the views. A hairdryer and a straightener which is not often seen in hotels. Breakfast and dinner are served on a huge verandah overlooking picture post card views across the fields and the mountains beyond. Wonderful breakfast, both western and Thai. Parking is available if you are driving. A garden to sit in to read or just soak in the views. The owner speaks English both she and her staff were absolutely fantastic, helpful and wonderful... I was given a great map of the area with all the things to see and do. A wonderful, kind and helpful owner who speaks excellent English. A fabulous restaurant on site with the best breakfasts I have had all over Thailand! excellent beautiful staff… thank you!
