Description
Although the location of the Sukhothai Guesthouse isn't fantastic, this small family-run spot is very comfortable, friendly and popular. The rooms are clean and some have pleasant verandas that look great for an afternoon drink or nap. It's about a 10-minute walk from here to the river.

Good value -

Guesthouse was good. The verandas were very very nice and relaxing. The bed was not very comfortable, but the owner was friendly and accommodating (they picked us up and dropped us off at the bus station).


Pretty good -
By rwcox123 ( total comments: 4  More information please ) Stayed here 2/2006
Was clean, reasonably well maintained, and the owners/staff were very helpful. Is about 200 meters from the center of town -- an easy walk, but not as close the to the ''action'' as some places. I would stay here again. Did not eat here, so can't comment on that. We did get an itemized bill at the end.


Great place and Great food -

The Sukhothai guest house, not in any of the guidebooks, is great. The owners were very friendly and father and son speak excellent English and a bit of French and German as well. The guesthouse is situated a few (5-10) minutes walk from the market on the east side of town. They have 12 rooms set up in 4 separate buildings. The rooms are reached on paths winding through the secluded garden and most rooms have a private terrace with a soft cushy porch swing, great for hanging out and reading. All have private bath some with fan and some with AC. I had one of the latter rooms and it was great, clean and roomy with king size bed, and well appointed bath.

SukoThai Guesthouse has great Thai food (unlike many guesthouses), and a self serve fridge for drinks. Try the Panang Chicken Curry.

The owners were very kind to me, and made me feel at home. So kind in fact that I extended my stay to enjoy the town, and the guesthouse. They are great hosts, and provide a private, comfortable and beautiful little oasis in SukoThai Thailand.

Garden House
11/1 Pravet Nakhon Rd, Sukhothai
The quiet Garden House is a newish place with very friendly staff and a good range of budget options. Choose between spotless wooden bungalows running back behind the restaurant, aircon or fan-cooled, or a room with shared... more



Banthai Guesthouse
38 Pravet Nakhon Rd, Sukhothai
This very long-running guesthouse is often full due to the very good write-ups it has received over the years. The bungalows are cozy if a little cramped, the restaurant is certainly looking its age, and the rooms with shared facilities are small. Nevertheless it's very popular and a great place to... more



TR Guesthouse
27/5 Pravet Nakhon Rd, Sukhothai
The very clean and newish TR has well-sized, spotless rooms. It may not be overflowing in character, but it is comfortable and centrally located. All rooms have private bathroom facilities plus there's a good little terrace area out front. There's also internet services, laundry and call ahead for... more



J&J Guesthouse
122/1501 Maeramphan Rd, Sukhothai
Almost next door to No 4, J&J has spacious, concrete bungalows all with private bathroom. The rooms are nothing special, but they are clean and very well-looked after. It seemed as if more larger bungalows were in the works when we last visited in mid-2004. Highlights here are the lovely staff and... more



No 4 Guesthouse
140/4 Soi Maerampan Jarodwitheethong Rd, Sukhothai
No 4's basic but atmospheric bamboo huts with semi-open air showers leave you wondering whether Colonel Kurtz is lurking somewhere around here. The setting is rather exotic, and though we didn't stay here, it looks like mosquitos could be a problem. There's an intimate restaurant and a reasonable... more



Yom River Guesthouse
Riverside, Sukhothai
Set right on the bank of the Nan River, the Yom River Guesthouse is a very attractive wooden house with a range of rooms available, though as we couldn't find any staff we were not able to take a look inside, nor find out the prices. Looks like it would be in the 200-300B range. Worth a... more



Traveller's House
130 Jarotviteethong Rd, Sukhothai
Managed by the staff from Garden House, this new spot has immaculate rooms, with either shared or private facilities. It's not as charming as the guesthouse, but in busy periods worth a... more



Sawasdipongs Hotel
56/2-5 Singhawat Rd, Sukhothai
This place looks pretty average from the outside, but the rooms are well-sized and comfortable, particularly those in the new wing towards the rear of the building. The second, older wing at the front isn't worth... more



River View Hotel
92-92/1 Nikornkasem Rd, Sukhothai
This definitely has the feel of a short-time love hotel, right down to the red lights above the doors that turn on when the room is occupied. It's a great riverside location, but not really worth considering when so many other options abound.... more



Northern Palace Hotel
43 Singhawat Rd, Sukhothai
As of mid-2004, the Northern Palace was being renovated and hopefully the results will be a big improvement on the current room offerings, which are musty and unappealing. It's a quiet location, English is spoken, but it's a little bit of a walk from the centre of town. Other places are better... more



Somprasong Guesthouse
32 Pravert Nakhon Rd, Sukhothai
This long-running spot appeared to have closed when we visited in July,... more
