Description
The Siam Hotel is right beside Mae Sot's gem trading market so it's usually pretty busy with local traders and passing businessmen. One of the better hotels in town, the Siam has fan rooms with cold water and two different sizes of air-con rooms both with hot water, of which the cheaper room is the better deal. The downstairs lobby is beside a small cafe and restaurant -- both of which are good viewpoints from which to observe some of the frenzied trading. this can be a good way to pass some time, just don't try to buy any gemstones unless you really know what your doing.

No. 4 Guest House
736 Intharakiri Rd, Mae Sot
Tucked away down a small lane at the western end of Mae Sot is No4 Guest House -- a very long-running institution among budget travellers. No4 has served as a cheap and cheerful base for the tightest of budgeteers from which to experience this cultural crossroads of a town. The owner, Mr Oom, is a... more



Bai Fern Guest House
660 Intharakiri Rd, Mae Sot
Bai Fern is perhaps better known for its decent restaurant than its rooms, but in fact the rooms are pretty decent also. They're of average size but are well tended have new linen and are popular with the NGO crowd. There's fan or air-con rooms to choose from, and they're all well priced;... more



Ban Thai Guest House
740 Intharakiri Rd, Mae Sot
Just fifty metres west down the road from No4 Guesthouse, Ban Thai is extremely popular with long-termers. One reason may be the pleasant communal area out front, with a bunch of tables and chairs in a garden-terrace setting. This makes for a fine place to meet other travellers or just to catch up... more



Lusy Guest House
Soi Ruam Chai, Mae Sot
Set down a quiet lane in a fairly modern building, Lusy's appearance is quite enchanting. Two floors of rooms are spread around a small courtyard, with small communal decking running in front of the rooms for decent socialising. As to the rooms, it's a mystery. When we asked the old lady if we... more



DK Hotel
298 Intharakiri Rd, Mae Sot
You cant miss the DK Hotel, and that's not a bad thing as it's one of Mae Sot's better budget hotels. The rooms are enormous for the price and all have TV. There are fan and air-con rooms, but it's worth noting that while the fan rooms don't have hot water, the air-con rooms do. There's plenty of... more



Star Inn
Behind Tesco Lotus, Mae Sot
The Star Inn wins the award for the most atrocious excuse for a hotel in north-western Thailand. Very obviously a short time establishment, the management are surprisingly friendly and welcoming to backpackers. Unfortunately if you have even the most modest of standards then this place will fail... more



Pornthep Hotel
25 Sri Wiang Rd, Mae Sot
You can't help thinking that the Pornthep could do better. It's got arguably the best location in town, certainly if you're a businessman. There's literally hundreds of rooms and a fleet of staff yet the whole place seems like it hasn't had a makeover in decades. Rooms have TV, and some rooms have... more



Pin Guesthouse
Highway 105, Mae Sot
On the main highway passing through town, just beside the SP Kitchen sits the Pin Guest House. It's a gorgeous wooden house containing 14 very well laid-out rooms, all with an abundance of teak furniture and large comfortable beds. There's also TV and a fridge, and all rooms come with air-con. The... more
