Description
Trekker Hill is another decent option for backpackers, with 5 laid back rooms perched on the hill with glimpses of a good view through the trees. The rooms here are A-frame style bungalows and although the interiors are nothing special there's a pleasant balcony area with seating and a table which encourages socialising, particularly as the huts are all close together. For those on a budget there is a dorm room which although basic is clean and cozy; and the chances are that you'll have the room to yourself particularly in low season. The management hinted that at some point in the future they plan to build some new huts, but nothing certain yet.

There's 25 rooms available, varying in size and bed count, all set within a couple of large teakwood houses which have been purpose built as a guesthouse. 24-hour coffee available, a... more



Umpang House
Umphang village
Umphang House has plenty of grounds so the huts are well spaced out and the surrounding garden provides some good shade on a hot day. The bungalows are pleasant but a tad dated, so it's best to check the room to make sure it's up to standard before you accept it. Some are made from brick, some from... more



Garden Huts
Riverside
Garden Huts is our pick of the bunch in Umphang, because it has a bit of everything. Set aside a small stream some of the rooms have river views, but those that don't are still surrounded by gorgeous gardens full of vibrant colours. There are rooms to suit all budgets, starting with the Balinese... more



Umphang Hill Resort
53 Moo 6, Umphang
The majority of guests here are pre-booked on one of Umphang Hill's tours, but they welcome walk-in trade as well. The huts are positioned close together at various points on the hill, but astonishingly hardly any of the huts have a view -- strange considering the altitude that they are built at.... more
