Auangkham Resort Reviews

Warm welcome like home and nice city...

The resort has a very friendly environment with a nice garden and outise sofas, chairs, and hammocks around. No noisy neighbours which comes from the fact that the resort is in a suburb area, still convenience stores and restaurants in 5-10 min walking distance. The only disadvantage of the place is that basically they do not have dedicated parking area, only just a roundabout at the entrance.

Lovely and relaxing. The owner is extremely attentive and helpful without being intrusive. There are free bikes for the guests, and biking nearby is great, and very scenic. The Inn is causal, laid back, comfortable, the beds are OK, and the rooms are clean and very adequate, with balconies overlooking a slightly neglected jungle garden. They serve breakfast, but the owner suggested we bike over to the fresh market and pick up our own breakfast, then come back and use the hotel restaurant's dishes etc to serve ourselves. There's free coffee, etc. That's what we did and it was great fun. I think we paid about 1000 TB per room, maybe $30, which seemed a tiny bit high, until we realized how amazing the owner was, and how great the location was. We live 90 minutes north of there, in Chiang Mai, and it will now be our little break spot when we want a day off.

Friendly welcome, everyone are giving a great hospitality during we stay and the location is perfect near to the old town area with the resort environment make you feel that you are stay in your friend's garden home.

Safety deposit box key (with owner who works OFF-site) so access to safety deposit box in an emergency restricted ! Agoda informed and refunded hotel fee

We enjoyed our time. As mentioned by other reviewers the 'kids corner' was great for our two children.

I REALLY had problems finding this hotel as I arrived in the evening and it was dark. The hotel is in a quite remote location and, eventually the owner sent a staff member to find me and I followed him back to the hotel in my rental car. This was above and beyond the call of duty!!!! The room was small, but clean and comfortable, but I was woken by noisy neighbours checking out as well as dogs barking loudly nearby. However, the owner Kun Tu was absolutely charming and a HUGE help to me when I had trouble with my rental car so, for this I was truly thankful. I would certainly visit again should my travels take me back to Lampang.

We lost our way to find this hotel, as it's located in small street of old town residential area. Once we found the place and checked in to hotel, we fell in love with homy cosy ambience. This hotel is really good for long staying and relax living traveller..

Had a great time chatting with Too who has a large motorbike and rides often and Thailand is superb for that.

Rooms were clean and comfortable. Would prefer if the resort had some form of room service.

Good

This little resort is off the beaten path for sure. Trusting the GPS for directions, we found the resort. And glad we did. It was quiet, clean, lots of greenery on the property. The proprietor was very personable. We just needed a place for 1 night for a race east of the city and this place was perfect and relaxing. And a great value.

This hotel is very good value for money. Very clean, very friendly staff, very quiet place, good breakfast and very good location (downtown). They have bikes for free and its great to ride through Lampang. We will definitely book this hotel again on our next trip to Lampang in three months.

If you are looking for a garden resort in the midst of the city, this is it. You will love the manager, named Too, who is an absolute delight and very helpful. Sometimes I thought he could read minds because he would give helpful advice and maps without ever having been asked.

Quiet location with a nice breakfast and lovely gardens. Really enjoyed our stay here and would consider coming back again

If you like small, family-owned hotels, with beautiful grounds, tasteful traditional-style decor, a convenient location, and helpful staff - at a very reasonable price - this is the place for you. The hotel is located on Wang Nuea Road, a residential street which has a characterful non-touristy street market on Friday and Sunday nights. The hotel is set back from the road. It is a garden-swathed building with wide awnings which keep it pleasantly cool. There are couches, tables and chairs for hanging out and enjoying the peaceful environment. An antique television set, shelves of reading material, and traditional textiles contribute to the homey atmosphere. At breakfast, one can enjoy a nice jasmine tea from Chiang Rai. I had a deluxe room, which was spacious and had a beautiful view overlooking the lush garden. The floors are wood. The bed was very comfortable with all-cotton sheets. There was a large-screen TV. The bathroom is wet-room style and had hot water. The owner of the guesthouse is friendly and speaks excellent English. He had great tips on places to visit, which was very useful because most guidebooks don't have enough about Lampang. He even made a map showing all of the restaurants in the local area which he personally tried to make sure they're ok! The guesthouse is within walking distance of tourist sites such as the major temples and the traditional commercial area (Chinatown) near the river. You can also borrow a bicycle for free from the guesthouse. I originally booked to stay at Auangkham Resort for 1 night, but liked it and Lampang so much that I decided to stay for two. I highly recommend Auangkham Resort.

Aungkham was a very, very pleasant place to stay and has an amazing garden. Rooms are simple, but cute and very clean. Staff and owners are all great and very helpful with anything. Very cool market just outside the door every friday night. The hotel has bicycles to borroow free of charge for guests and we really enjoyed biking around this amazing town that Lampang is.

poor bathroom facilities poor linen and towels good hi speed internet very friendly & attentive staff

Only a one night stay which exceeded all expectations - will stay again if I get the chance

we spent two nights here and loved every minute. From the moment you are greeted by Too, you feel at home. The guest house is set in wonderful gardens with plenty of space to relax. The room was lovely with a balcony looking into the beautiful gardens. Everything is so well kept. Breakfast is definitely worth it. I would recommend a visit to the elephant conservation centre too. Lampang really is a hidden gem. The free bikes at the hotel are a perfect way to see the city and its temples. The night market is a must very different from the usual tourist attraction markets. I could not recommend this hotel highly enough. The host and his family are wonderful, they will make you feel very welcome!

very happy

Lovely little hotel close to town. Free bike use and nice.

I loved my stay at Auangkham Resort. The gardens were splendidly done with love and the rooms were simple but very lovely. The hotel isn't exactly located in the town center but i was actually glad that this was so. It was nice to escape from all the noise and action and come back to some peace and quiet. It only takes about 10 minutes to walk into the town center (also the famous Sunday market). Bicycles are provided for free by the hotel. The large room also has a comfortable bed and a big bathroom. I will not hesitate to stay here again! Lovely all around.

This was a pleasant surprise. Very friendly and attentive staff and ownership. Quiet surroundings. Very comfortable rooms. The owner even did some work on my motorcycle overnight after it had a turn signal malfunction. He noticed it and repaired it before I woke up the first morning. I will stay here again, and I highly recommend it.

This is a small family hotel located in the old city , not far from major attractions . Nice little garden . Peaceful surroundings . Very attentive staff . Good breakfast for only 100 baht . Big rooms , some mosquitoes on the ground floor .

The resort is located along the cultural street and close to points of interest in Lampang, local restaurants and shops. Bicycles are provided for free. There is free flowing coffee, tea, banana and biscuits in the morning and American breakfast is provided for only B 100.-. Efficient A/C and minibar in the room. Each room has a balcony overlooking the nice and well kept garden which sports a/o orchids, Chico trees and Betel nut palms. The owner and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful and provide useful maps and advise where to eat out and how best to go to places arranging transport if necessary and give advise on fees.

We enjoyed our stay at The Auangkham Resort a lot. During our stay, the owner Mr. Too treated us like a friend and make us feel welcome right away. Hotel room was clean and great value. The whole stay made us feel we are part of their family. Bike is free for us to use and Mr. Too provide us with a lot of tourist information. We will definitely go back on our return to Lampang.

I was doing a driving tour of northern Thaiand and used Lampang as my base for a couple of days. The hotel is located in a residential neighbourhood and was initially a little bit difficult to find. The hotel provided a detailed map and walking directions to a number of local sights, restaurants, shopping etc. Parking was limited to the driveway of the property and there are rooms in the main house and in an adjoining 2 storey building in the garden. The rooms are spacious and clean and more guesthouse rather than hotel. Breakfast is ordered the night before and I think meals are sent out for rather than cooked in the hotel. The staff/owner were very helpful and welcoming and I thoroughly enjoyed my short stay. Good value.

We spent one night in Lampang at this hotel. It is in the oldest part of Lampang, and within walking distance from many interesting places to visit. The owner/manager was very friendly and helpful. The Auangkham resort represents Thai hospitality at its best.

very nice hotel in an older city area. The only downside may be that the bathroom didn't have the wet and dry area separate. the hotel is close to the walking street during Saturday and Sunday night. THere are bicycle available for guest who interests to ride by themselves. We didn't have the breakfast with the hotel but instead looking for other local food elsewhere.

A nice small hotel that we recommend to everyone coming to Lampang. Hotel staffs are all super-friendly. Little garden gives a nice resort-like feeling for this city hotel. The room we stayed in was nice and clean. We would definitely book this hotel for our next stay.

Wish we had stayed longer as the location and accommodations were perfect. Will stay again if we travel to Lampang.

This is my great choice in Lampang. We stay for two nights to enjoy local food, temple sightseeing and hot spring nearby. Friendly staff and we really felt that we are at home. Location is near the local market where you can find the local food on morning and evening and minutes away from historic temple. If you stay during Fri-Sun, it will be more happening since night market around will be opened and you can enjoy variety of food, goods.

very good stay, nice and quiet surroundings, and very nice looking garden area

The owner was very friendly and helpful and spoke excellent English. The friendly staff organised taxis for me and my horse and cart tour and pointed me in the right area for points of interest. I felt very welcome. A great bonus was the free bike hire for getting around Lampang and they were in good condition. A very nice breakfast, the room was very clean and comfortable. The internet a bit slow at times. The gardens and area were very quite and it was located in a good spot. I would go back there if I am in Lampang. I am travelling on my own through Thailand and the owner gave me lots of very helpful travel tips. They also gave me a couple of excellent restaurants to eat at which had both western and thai food and the owners spoke English.

Excellent experience, good quality advice, good breakfasts, a really pleasant stay and very good value for money. I would both recommend it to friends and happily repet my stay.

The big problem with this hotel is finding it - amazingly they only have a sign in English! However the staff were good and send out someone to collect us and lead us back to the hotel. the rooms are simple, nothing special with very small TV with absolutely the worst TV selection I have seen in a hotel in Thailand, no English Tv and very poor reception on the Thai side. They need to seriously improve on this. Breakfast is not included so I cannot comment on this.

The hotel is nice and not so far from the city center (10 minutes walk). It was a pity that the first day at our arrival nobody spoke English.

All went very well. Lampang is a wonderful city to wander in. The staff helped arrange transportation to attractions outside the city. Be forewarned that street and temple dogs can be aggressive. Thailand has developed a major problem in this respect. The Land of Smiles has also become the Land of Snarls. They need to get a handle on this.

wonderful stay, i would definitely recommend other people to go. If I could have done it, I would have stayed longer time. Lampang is a quite and very small city, if you are looking for crazy nights out it's probably not the best choice, but if you are trying to explore the real Thailand, far aways from the shows and fictions, you are in the right place, and the Auangkam resort give you a perfect cozy, welcoming and clean place where to sleep. Just one thing, breakfast it's not included, but if you want it in the hotel, you can order it the evening before (by 22.00).

A lovely stay towards the end of a long cycle made all the more enjoyable by our wonderful host who gave us advice on the last part of our journey.

Had a lovely relaxing stay at this hotel, staff were efficient, smiled lots and made you feel a welcome visitor!. rooms were large and well designed, garden was nice!, hotel was 5 minute taxi ride from centre of Lampang but it felt like you were in countryside almost Forest!. so it felt relaxing and stress free.

It has been a wonderful and excellent stay for us, thanks to the great hospitality the resort owner. We truly have had a great time there. The resort has a small and nice cosy kids corner and it has certainly provided my kids with lots of fun. The free bicycle services provided was also great to get around Lampang and the old city. Extremely warm and friendly staff with lots of smiles. We really felt at home when we were there.

The owner was very friendly and full of information. He also provided free use of the bicycles which is an enjoyable way to get around the city. The hotel is set in nice gardens in a quiet location but just a few minutes walk from the city centre. On Friday nights there is a nice little street market on the main street outside the hotel. Lampang is a really relaxing place to visit if you want to get away from all the traffic, tourists and the hassling you get in the bigger thai cities.
