Local Attractions

Three unmissable attractions lie within a 15-minute drive of the hotel:

• Wat Phra That Cho Hae: Perched on a hilltop just 8 kilometers outside central Phrae, this 13th-century Lanna temple is Phrae’s most sacred site, boasting a gilded chedi with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. The temple’s intricate wood carvings and quiet, tree-shaded grounds make it a perfect spot for quiet reflection.
• Phrae Town Central Teak Heritage Walk: Just a 10-minute walk from the hotel, this historic neighborhood is home to well-preserved century-old teak mansions and colonial buildings built during Phrae’s 19th-century logging boom. Don’t miss the Phrae Folk Museum, housed in a stunning 1900s teak governor’s residence, to learn about the region’s rich history.
• Thanon Luang Walking Street: Held every Saturday evening just 1 kilometer from the hotel, this lively night market offers handwoven northern Thai textiles, homemade local snacks like khao soi and mango sticky rice, and traditional Lanna music performances.

Travel Tips

As the hotel is adults-only, it is not suitable for travelers bringing children. While basic towels and linens are provided, guests requiring extra sets should note that these incur a small additional fee. Phrae is much quieter than Chiang Mai, so rent a motorbike or car to explore the surrounding attractions easily—free parking at the hotel makes this very convenient. Visit between November and February for cool, dry weather ideal for temple visits and outdoor exploration, and don’t forget to pack lightweight, modest clothing for temple visits that covers shoulders and knees.
