Description
One of the longest-running guesthouses in Sangkhlaburi, P Guesthouse attracts a loyal Thai and western clientele with their incredibly clean, very large rooms. Set a fifteen minute walk from Sangkhlaburi town, P Guesthouse has a massive, heavily-wooded restaurant area with great views over the lake. There is an attached games room and a travel agent on site. The rooms run down towards the lake in a single row, and while they are uniformly huge, their concrete and slate finish gives them a bit of a Flintstones feel and the rooms with shared bathroom are certainly overpriced when compared to other options in Sangkhlaburi -- those with private bathroom are far better value. Staff are English speaking, very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. On the weekends P Guesthouse can get pretty busy as it is very popular with Thai travellers escaping Bangkok, but on weekdays, you may well have it to yourself. Motorbikes and canoes are available for hire.

Booking problem - 
By Dunk71 ( total comments: 2

I just tried to book a 3 night stay but was told I also had to take a tour package, totalling 2200 Baht for 2 people incl. A/C room for 1 night ( usually 750 Bt per night, room not per person ). I only wanted to stay in the fan rooms with bathroom for 550 Bt and just enjoy the lake and read for 3 days ! It doesn't mention this requirement on their website and I think its a bit of a swizz, especially as a single person could presumably get that trip plus A/C room for 1100 Baht and they asked me for double that for the same room. Feel a bit cheated and its annoying!
GREAT PLACE -

Great location, great views, great facilities, great staff, but lousy food.
DO NOT stay here during holidays or even weekends, unless you love crowds and noise. We stayed during a holiday weekend (mistake going in the first place, but we really didn't think anyone would be around) and were charged B200 for a tent! Getting a bungalow was out of the question as everything was fully booked. Also, we had to pay full price for our ''tent'' upfront. Food was dealt with on the honour system.
BUT, we found a room at the Burmese Inn the next morning and P-Guest House refunded our money and didn't make us pay for our meals. Very nice. So, I'd definitely stay here again, but only during a non-holiday weekday. It is a very lovely spot with beautiful views across the lake.
not pricey at all -

I don't find 200 baht for a perfectly OK room expensive, considering the setting - this place is popular with Thais and can get a bit noisy.
A good swimming spot, where you can dive into the lake, you don't have to stay here to go for a swim and can sunbathe on the grass even if you stay elsewhere. This is also the place to go in Sangklaburi to hire kayaks.

For both backpackers and flashpackers, the Burmese Inn is the best value option in town. Theie cheapest rooms (which double as the cheapest in town) are in a wooden and bamboo longhouse, and while these are very basic, with hard lumpy mattresses, the rooms are clean, as are their attached... more
