Accommodation and facilities:
We almost couldn t find the resort as it was hidden in the mountain! The location is too far if you wanna explore the Chiang Rai town and go up to Golden Triangle! But if you wanna just relax and enjoy the mountain view, Phu Chaisai is value for money. Great room, great view, exceptional Thai food at their restaurant and great spa! But some of the facilities eg. swimming pool, common area and gardening is under maintenance. The room #304 we stayed didn t have hot shower at all! The hotel gave us another room just for shower!
Reservation service:
Too many emails bombed into my mailbox for just one single reservation. Can t you simplify the process?
Accommodation and facilities:
Will be very good for family if have some more activities, such as horse riding. Spa is quite expensive than expected.
Reservation service:
Very good and quick response.

Accommodation and facilities:
loved it here. the room was great with a nice balcony and a big bath room and extra sitting room. they grow and serve their own organic vegies and herbs. It s great place to relax get the spa treatment and take a tour or 2 of the nearby sights of interests. Not a place for those who like to walk outside and go shopping dining as there isn t really anything else in walking distance.

Accommodation and facilities:
Phu Chaisai is probably one of the most beautiful resorts I have ever been. The view from the resort is heavenly for a photography enthusiast like me. The room is so big and the furnishing is so unique. We had breakfast at the hotel on both days and we did also have dinner. The food is fantastic although we actually didn t expect much. However the highlight of my stay there is when I left one of my shopping bags at the lobby after checked out and we headed to Mae Hong Sorn. I only realized the missing bag 2 days later. I called and the staff is very helpful and trying her very best to find the best way to send the bag to me. Finally we agree to have it sent to Chiangmai where it will be my final destination for this trip before catching my flight home. Here, from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank all the staff at Phu Chaisai for all your assistance.

Accommodation and facilities:
The environment is excellent and very natural. The food taste really good. Stuffs are helpful and nice. The room is spacious (Deluxe Cottage). Due to the natural matter of Bamboo, woods and leaves, the room is quite old, mold and dusting. Damp and musty smell especially in the rainy season.

The creative mind for over three decades behind many palaces, restaurants,
hotels, resorts, and pubs in Thailand as well as Thai embassies overseas,
noted interior designer ML Sudavadee Kriangkrai found Phu Chaisai a
home for solace and peace of mind. Once a bamboo forested hill, it was
gradually and inventively transformed into a cozy residence and later
a resort, all within five years.
Phu Chaisai is now an oasis
of spirituality for city dwellers that seek refuge from the wear and
tear of the city. One can't help but be impressed by the beauty of the
tranquility and the natural setting. Thirty-four rooms were made of
bamboo and are void of television sets and electronic alarm clocks.
In the warm embrace of Mother Nature, many can make peace with their
inner selves.
Simplicity is always the key to ML Sudavadee's
designs. In the East-meets-West fashion show, she defined her design
as integrated for relaxation of body and mind with high-quality hospitality
and professional performance.
ACCOMMODATIONS
Soaked in dew, the fresh green leaves of trees glisten
as day breaks. The entire mountain range and forest is a thick canopy
of green humming with the singing of birds and insects. Open your eyes
and from the confines of your bed watch the sun moving up the horizon.
From the outside, this small and romantic resort is just a cluster
of ordinary bamboo huts with thatched rooms, but once you step inside
you realize that these huts are special. Devoid of brand name decorative
items and expensive furniture, Phu Chaisai chose to build with decorative
items.
The air is just one of the many attractions of Phu Chaisai
(Mountain of Clear Hearts), an enchanting little ''boutique'' resort
located in the hills outside of Mae Chan, in Chiang Rai. The relative
silence is another. The breathtaking views afforded from the generous
terraces and the bright and airy rooms, as well as most of the common
areas, is yet another.
