Nearby Attractions

Three must-visit local spots are all within a 20-minute drive of the hotel:

• Khaoyai National Park: Thailand’s third-largest national park is home to dense tropical forests, cascading waterfalls like the popular Haew Suwat and Haew Narok, and abundant wildlife including wild elephants, hornbills, and macaques. Hike well-marked trails, book a night safari to spot nocturnal animals, or enjoy a picnic by a cool mountain stream.
• Palio Khaoyai: A charming Italian-themed shopping village dotted with colorful cobblestone streets, al fresco cafes, and quirky boutique shops. It’s perfect for an afternoon of browsing, taking photos, or grabbing a gelato before returning to the hotel.
• PB Valley Khaoyai Winery: Thailand’s most famous winery offers guided tours of its vineyards, wine tastings of locally produced blends, and a hilltop restaurant with panoramic views of the surrounding vineyards and mountains.

Travel Tips

Book your stay at least two weeks in advance during peak season (November to February), when Khaoyai’s cool, dry weather draws crowds from Bangkok. If you plan to use the on-site SPA, fitness center, or book a squash court, note that these are available for an extra fee, so ask the front desk about current pricing when you check in. Pack layers: even in the dry season, evenings can drop to 18–20°C, so bring a light sweater for early morning hikes and evenings on your balcony. Finally, while the 24-hour front desk speaks Thai, if you require English assistance, confirm language support when booking to avoid miscommunication.
