Located at the Chaisongkran end of the street -- just opposite Cafe Paille -- Baan Pai Village is an excellent spot and within its range one of the best deals in the centre of town. It's central but quiet with good rooms, friendly staff and excellent facilities. The reception area is spacious and nicely done out with a teak finish. Internet service is available plus all the usual info. Out the front is their excellent Poppies restaurant and wine bar, which claims to serve the cheapest glass of wine in Pai. The food is good too, with well done local and Western favourites. Behind this, in an admittedly cramped garden, are comfortable and well appointed chalets -- all with small balconies and en suite showers, attractively finished in bamboo and teak with traditional leaf roofs. The lush and dense garden successfully creates the impression of the chalets being in the middle of a manicured jungle rather than squeezed onto a slightly too small piece of land. Paths and ponds break up the vegetation. The resort doesn't quite reach the river but it's only a short walk away. The same crew runs Ban Pai Riverside opposite, plus an out of town one, Ban Pai Mountain. We reckon Ban Pai Village is their best value for money site.

not exactly ''divine'' - 10th February, 2009
It must be hard for a travel site to rate every accommodation option accurately. This is a good example.
Baan Pai Village is grossly overpriced at 1000 baht for a very cramped, dimly lit hut with fan. There is a mosquito net over the bed. Noise carries here. If you raise your voice at all, you're likely to disturb your neighbors and vice versa. There's nothing remotely charming about the place though I can't really find particular fault with the staff. They were, for the most part, invisible. They did emerge, however, to serve a laughable breakfast. I can't say for certain if the other guests while I was there felt the same, but I think we were all amused by the breakfast. It really wouldn't be so bad of a place if they cut their prices by 50%. There are many better options in town but keep in mind Pai's popularity allows for a bit of price inflation for accommodation.
