On the plus side, this resort is conveniently located for a stay in the area, looks attractive, has comfortable beds, is clean, has pleasant staff, and a good Thai breakfast buffet. The downside is the noise; our Blue Room was about 80-100m from Highway 101 and the incessant traffic noise was pretty awful. Also, the walls between rooms appear to be poorly soundproofed. When trying to sleep, we could clearly hear people in the next room talking (not shouting, just talking normally). Very frustrating. Our Blue room was attractively designed, but a bit short on amenities; electric sockets not convenient (only on one side of the bed), only one bedside table, no bedside lights, no hooks in the bathroom for hanging a toiletry bag or dressing gown.... If we'd paid, say, THB2,000 for the room and breakfast, I would feel the value was reasonable (but the noise...). However, we paid over THB4,000 a night which I don't think the quality of the accommodation matches up to. Good luck to them, I say, if they can fill the resort (12 rooms the receptionist told me) at such prices, but we won't be staying here again.…
A cozy hotel in Pua, Nan province. Each bedroom is unique with the mountain view. Bed is hugh, so as a bath tub. Breakfast and wifi included. Cocoa workshop is a must - you will learn how the cocoa came from and can make your own chocolate. Advanced reservation is recommended. Ms. Jeab the owner is super nice with all the story of cocoa making. We will definitely be back again. P.S. public transportation is hard to find, better rent a car.
Staff is no willing to answer question (suce as usually asked question like " Where is toilet"), with non-polite manner. She's cashier guy, possible chief staff or partner. Management of cafe is not well organized. Signature drink, cocoa flappe, make me disappoint. Low concentration of cocoa, too sweet, too expensive compare with quality. Exterior desige is pretty good, but there're a lot of cafe like this.
We stayed 1 night in Cocoa Blue room. The room is nice and comfortable. There is s big private balcony to enjoy the view. But the water in bathroom is too light and we also heard sounds from outside. There is a cafe in the resort, so there is no privacy at all. The check in staff does not provided much information. But overall here is another good option in Pua.
I went to overnight at cocoa valley for a night first checked-in the staff only bring me and my brother to the room and gave me a room key then they left without any informed. - Breakfast, I was surprise only one set I can pick I didn't know, they provides Northern food and an American food, my brother was ordering both of food (he doesn't knows/ person only 1 set) then he gots both of them. I was ordering American breakfast but the staffs in the restaurant doesn't helpful to cook for me, I kept waiting for my food but no. (I guess) they thought 2 set from my brother also for me! WTF! We didn't know about since I came to checked in at cocoa valley then the staffs weren't friendly and no one asked what can I have! (They don't care) Service was badly, i was talking with a staff in restaurant what happened no one informed us about how to get breakfast and you kept say sorry only and I haven't get the food! We have to go to the market to have breakfast, after that we came back to hotel we rushing to checked out don't want to stayed longer this is unexpected for us, we decided to stayed at cocoa valley because the hotel looks nice but we didn't feel good to stayed one more night. Sooo bad …
The small resort is in the middle of a Pua, a rather nondescript provincial town which is a good staging point for local attractions or heading across the national park. Rooms are just OK, not well maintained (broken fittings etc). However it is the small minded attitude of the staff that indicates you should find somewhere else to stay. Examples: We arrived at 11.30am and asked if we could check in. They said 'no, policy is check in at 2pm'. We asked if the room was ready and they said 'yes, but policy is...' They offered us to spend 2.5 hours in their coffee shop waiting. No thanks. At breakfast I sat at the table and they brought me a set plate of eggs toast and sausage. Then I noticed other people eating the terrific local specialty of northern spicy sausage and naam prik with rice - one of my favourites. I asked them (I speak fluent Thai) why they didn't tell me about that - of course they assumed a westerner only eats eggs and toast for breakfast. I asked if I could have some of the local dish - 'NO - because I am only allowed one thing' Thirdly, we were here multiple nights, and they didn't clean the room until we forced them too. And even then they leave toilet roll with just a few sheets remaining and no spare.…
