Phrao

Phrao is a small country town and one that’s well off the beaten tourist routes, so consequently, accommodation options are rather limited. If you’re looking for backpacker dorms or high-end resorts then you’re better off staying in Chiang Dao or Chiang Mai and treating Phrao as a day trip. If you do want to soak up some of the Thai country ambience however, the area’s prime address, Doi Farang Resort, is an excellent flashpacker option while if you’re just passing through there are a couple of simple, albeit competent, spots in town.
