Rain Tree Khao Yai Hotel

“Amazing and serene. ”

Of all the times we have stayed in Khao Yai, this was the best hotel we have stayed in. It's just a beautiful property with so much space and greenery to it.

Of all the times we have stayed in Khao Yai, this was the best hotel we have stayed in. It's just a beautiful property with so much space and greenery to it. The staff we fabulous and so helpful every one of them - right from the time we checked in until we checked out. The hotel is well spread out and tucked away in a more far out area (a vehicle is a must); we took a triple bed and it was so spacious with a little pond overlooking our balcony. There are two pools but the one in the main area is gorgeous..there is a gym and many activities for the kids or they can just run around. The theme is books so you will find a lot of books all over the place. The only downside is the breakfast which was disheartening..not.a.very large spread. Else, if we ever go back to Khao yai, I doubt we will chose any other hotel..

Our last visit was to a relaxing countryside retreat, with a basic restaurant service of breakfast only. Since that visit the restaurant now servers more meals and provides room service And for lighter snack a coffee bar has been added, with a link to a publisher they server a butter beer variation. The rooms and other facilities have not changed, still of high quality, well maintained and allowing peaceful privacy to relax. For international travelers, the TV Channels on offer are limited but if you're going to watch TV then you'll be missing out of the natural beauty and relaxing walks around the property. And a thank you to the amazing staff, providing the high level of service I have come to expect in Thailand

“It is OK”

They say that first impression last. And mine ain’t too great about this place. When we arrived at the driveway, there was no one there to assist us. So, I unloaded wife, kid, all my stuffs and quickly moved my car away so that the next car can come on in. After getting my car parked elsewhere, I returned to see that my luggage is still left exactly where it is out doing its sun tan. Wife was not able to find anyone to assist even though the reception was full of staffs each in their own little circle of responsibilities. Move me luggage into the reception DIY, and did my check in. Staffs told us room not ready, please put luggage back in car because room far away. What an interesting welcome. Staffs here need some refresher course on hospitality and servicing. During breakfast, the place was full. We had to find our own seat outside the dining area, no staff came to attend to setup the table and condiments like ketchup, cutlery and tissues. When I asked for pepper, they bought me first a shaker that was salt. The 2nd time, they gave me an empty shaker, and the third time I went to get it myself inside the restaurant from their inventory cupboard. By then my sunny side up had fossilized and I was not enjoying it. Maybe it was too busy a weekend, was here for a 2-night’s stay in conjunction with a kids’ camp that we had our kid participated. They ran out of food too, like the Kanom Jin (Thai rice noodle with spicy gravy). Clearly the place is not geared for handling crowds, but yet the place is tuned for large events. They have event halls here and there, and they tie with event organizers for kid’s camp like these. The kids’ club was like aftermath of warzone, no staffs attended to it. In fact, manly places were deserted, you can have a fall, knock yourself unconscious and they only find your body a few days later. This resort is away from the central amenities filled parts of Khao Yai. It is located in what I considered to be the entry point into big mountain countryside if you are coming from Bangkok via Saraburi. Some parts of this resort gave a weird feeling that it used to be kind of a school that had been repurposed into a resort (it had never been a school). This could be due to the excessive wall paintings with big words like “Live & Learn” and lots of other Thai words I cannot read. Can tell they are trying to uplift the place with all these, but what resulted is a clutter. The resort occupies quite a sizable piece of hilly landscape, a good exercise be done just by exploring the place. A playground stands at the lowest point downhill of the resort where there is a pond. There are community spaces everywhere, such as the sheltered space between our building block and the opposite. Makes a good place for friends to come chat into the night after kids have fallen asleep. The place did kind of grew on me after a while. I like the large spaces and the greens. I like to venture out to the deserted places away from the activities and just take in the stillness there was to offer. It is a decent place to stay and will not burn your pockets, but don’t expect 5-star hotel treatment out of this.
