Som Chaineuk Bungalows

Pleasant rooms in a lush fruit grove

No pic at the moment -- Sorry!

What we say:

Rooms at Som Chaineuk are strewn through a beautiful garden, in bungalows set under the shade of rambutan, durian and wax apple trees. There are three classes of room. Inexpensive fan rooms are decent value, as they're large and clean, with sunny bathrooms. Standard air-con rooms are housed in a white concrete building, and are the least attractive. The best on offer here, and the most expensive, are the wooden bungalows, which feature well decorated split-level rooms with large beds. The gregarious, English-speaking owner also runs a floating hotel on the lake called VIP Floatel, and can arrange rafting and touring packages. Recommended.

Not Recommended

The town itself is worth spending a night to enjoy the tranquil setting – I stayed just one night and my room was kinda dilapidated and a bit dirty – On the main road, the hotel is signed in Thai, but the hotel part of the name is written in English, on a wooden background – I actually walked past it – Also perhaps Som Jai Nuke is an easier way to pronounce its name – The staff did not speak English (Ok for me cos I can speak Thai) and were very friendly – This is not a town that gets many farang visitors and I found the locals very polite and helpful
