Piya Guest House is set in a top spot across the road from Mae Hong Son's lake right in the centre of town. It has very clean, heavily furnished rooms -- many have TVs and all come with air-con. The bathrooms are particularly cute. Ask for one of the big double rooms as they're the same price as the smaller ones. The rooms are set around a garden area which, while looking a bit shabby on our last visit, is scattered with benches and mature trees for chilling out. They give students a 20% discount with an ID. Western breakfasts and general Thai and western food is available. Very friendly.

Piya Guest House reviews

Read 2 opinions from Travelfish readers

Very good indeed - 26th October, 2008
For 600 Baht you get a huge clean room with a large bed; very quiet air-con; an outside sitting area and friendly staff. And it is right in the middle of everything, the lake, nightmarket and restaurants. The restaurant seems to be closed.

Cosy and strategic - 11th October, 2009
Stayed for two nights. Nicely decorated rooms with good fittings. Strategically located just by the lake (undergoing renovation at time of visit). Reasonably friendly staff. Good, strong WiFi connection. Good value and wouldn't mind staying there again.
