The commendable Brook View has always been one of our Pai budget to flashpacker favourites and didn’t let us down on our latest visit.
Comfortable chalets are set in a spectacular garden which extends from botanical garden tropical style around the entrance and chalets to wide, mature tree-dotted lawns stretching down to the Pai River. It’s possibly the best garden we’ve seen at any resort, and worth a peek and cold drink even if you’re not staying here.
Two types of air-con chalet are on offer: Six brick ones are scattered around the edges of a courtyard and another dozen or so well-designed, spacious, wooden ones on high stilts look out across the Pai Valley. All are tastefully decorated and come with ensuite hot shower and balconies. Rooms are placed far enough back from the road to keep traffic noise down to an acceptable level.
Breakfast is not included and there’s no restaurant as such, but you are close enough to the centre of Pai for this not to be a problem. Brook View is just on the edge of town, past the traffic lights on the right-hand side of the road leading out to the airport so a mere five minutes’ walk or so from the bus station and Walking Street.
Service is efficient, friendly and family style. The usual trekking and sightseeing information is available at reception. Prices do vary according and an over-complicated pricing system sees nine different schemes for a total of 20 rooms.
Furthermore prices change on an almost monthly basis, so the below is a summary. Check the full itemised range on their comprehensive website. At a glance prices may seem slightly more than the average, but what’s on offer is considerably better than average and well worth those extra few baht in either low or high season. As usual in Pai though, we would avoid New Year and Christmas.
