Hotel bello e piacevole, un po lontano dal centro”

Camere grandi, con moquette, pulite, agevoli, con grande finestra, ristorante buono, sia a colazione che pranzo / cena, personale molto cortese ed efficente, comodo anche il servizio taxi (a pagamento), da noi sfruttato per gita in zona, taxista cortese e disponibile. In conclusione buon rapporto qualita prezzo, unico punto a sfavore è un po lontano dal centro, bisongna andare in taxi.

posizione ottima”

Spacious rooms, nice hotel

Superb as usual”

This is my usual hotel when I come to Mae Sot. Everything was great as usual - breakfast is always varied so regular guests will be happy. I am always curious to see the interesting mix of guests who stay here. On the evening we arrived, our first order of business after a long car journey from Bangkok was to eat dinner at the nearby Khao Mao Khao Fang restaurant, which must be one of the most beautiful restaurants anywhere in the world. I noticed a large number of westerners, mostly young Americans there and assumed they were staying at our hotel. Sure enough, they were and turns out they came on some sort of program or cultural exchange to help Burmese refugees. We ended up extending our stay to 2 nights as we had quite a bit of business to conduct and then proceeded to Myanmar for the next leg of our trip.

Nice place but dated”

Great location very nice friendly staff but the hotel is old. Only difference between the deluxe and superior room the floor they are on and with only 3 floors it makes no difference only to your wallet.

Great as usual”

I stay here so often there's little point in making a review every time I stay but I decided to this time just to say I was so glad to make it here after a night spent at a terrible hotel in Mae Sai the previous night. Was such a relief to arrive to a nice comfortable room and bed after a nice warm shower after passing through road construction on the Tak-Mae Sot road late at night in pouring rain. Breakfast was a delight, the hotel regularly updates it, which is a good sign. Everything about the room was good as usual. We headed onto Myanmar after a one night's stay here and encountered 7 days straight rain and flooding - only saw sun again after arriving in Chiang Mai after the Myanmar trip.

Excellent business hotel”

This is my usual place of residence whenever I'm in town on business. The staff are as always fantastic and the breakfast is great too. Glad to see they've worked on some positive changes - they are now growing organic veggies just outside the breakfast room (coffee shop) which are served in the restaurant, while the coffee machine, which was broken last time I stayed has now been fixed. Instead of large glasses the machine has been calibrated for smaller coffee cups instead, but either way you can still get a latte or mocha. My only gripe this time - the wifi was a bit slow (usually it works great) but as our trip was very busy I didn't have much time to use it anyway. In-room massage was also superb.

Great Place: Stay Here”

We loved it. Fasr and friendly check-in and we were whisked up to oir super-clean rooms. Recently renovated baths have walk-in showers. The staff were extremely helpful and in spite of some language limitations, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was lovely, and surprise! There is an expert young baker making the most fantastic breads. Wow! This hotel has a great pool in a lovely garden setting and tennis courts. We will stay here again.

Nice FInd. Good Rooms and a Great Chef”

The rooms have been updated and the bathrooms renovated. All clean and up to date. Breakfast was excellent, and the pastry chef gets a special note for his wonderful loaves of bread. Many of the staff in an upcountry hotel are weak when it comes to English, but in this hotel, their desire to please certainly makes up for any language issues. Great hotel. We'll be back.

All-inclusive hotel, the only international standard hotel in Mae Sot”

Although there are many good quality hotels in Mae Sot, many of which are brand new, the Centara is the only international standard hotel in the whole city and probably the whole province, with the exception of the capital, Tak. This is because the hotel offers full facilities including buffet breakfast, lunch, dinner (2 restaurants), room service, a business centre, conference and event facilities, a pool and gym, a bellboy and numerous services such as massage, airport pickup/drop-off, a travel agency on site, gift shop and others. I have stayed at the Centara dozens of times in the last couple of years as I come up to Mae Sot for business multiple times per year. Although the hotel is showing it's age, the rooms are functional, the beds comfortable with nice soft mattresses allowing a comfortable night's sleep, the wifi is pretty OK these days and the breakfast buffet is pretty good too. I disagree with the reviewer that said the location is bad with no restaurants around. On the contrary. The city's largest shopping mall Robinson is located directly opposite the hotel, you can head out of the hotel, cross the road and you're there. Numerous restaurants, cafes and a food court are located there. For something more local, there are numerous restaurants located along the bypass road just after Robinson's too. Getting into town is greatly simplified with a car or motorcycle, it's only a 5-10 minute drive, though you could walk it in 20-30 mins. Apart from the market there is not a whole lot happening in downtown though, relatively few restaurants of note except for the consistently good western favorite, Krua Canadian. Aside from this you'll notice a lot of Burmese number plates during the day, as Burmese come across for shopping and trading their wares. The border crossing is the main crossing for overland travel to Myanmar and is one of the main reasons foreigners travel to Mae Sot these days.

Best pool in Mae Sot and great service”

After years of living in Mae Sot, this was my first time actually staying at Centara. I was happily surprised with the quality of room: comfortable and spotless and up-to-date, if not fancy. The pool is the highlight, with comfortable chairs, towels, and umbrellas on request. Service has always been excellent and friendly. The low point is the gym, which hasn't been updated or renovated in years; it really needs a tile floor rather than old carpet, and weight machines are ancient and barely functional. Treadmill is new-ish. In terms of location, you'll need a motorbike or hired car to get anywhere - it's out on the highway and not convenient to restaurants or shops.

Great all-inclusive hotel; could be refurnished ”

After arriving for check-in, we were quickly whisked to our room after which I had to make a quick trip over the border to Myanmar and back. All the facilities in the room were in tip top condition, wifi worked well, the bed was very comfortable and the TV had a number of satellite/cable channels. However, some of the decor could use a refurbishment. The old style TVs should be upgraded to flat screens; the furniture updated. Breakfast was pretty good as usual, and in the morning I had requested a late check-out due to some business activities well outside of town that required me to drive about 40 mins one way. The receptionist gladly allowed me to extend my stay until 2pm free of charge. Overall, this is still the best hotel in Mae Sot and probably all of Tak province. However, as I've said before and others have mentioned, it could use a bit of an upgrade - I believe they have already started upgrading some rooms.

Best all-inclusive hotel in Tak province”

I have stayed at Centara Mae Sot Hill Resort many times since first coming to the area (and across the border to Karen/Kayin State and beyond in Myanmar) for business in late 2012. It is no wonder given the efficiency of the staff, the check-in and check-out process, the buffet breakfast, the pool, fitness centre, bar, function hall, restaurant, gift shop and ample on-site parking that this is the top choice in town. The pool often has a lot of local kids who appear to be members of a swimming club splashing around, perhaps the management could build a separate, larger pool for it's guests (it would have enough room on the hotel grounds to do so), while keeping the current smaller one for kids and those who are members of it's swimming club. The only negatives are that the hotel is showing it's age, having been built in the 80s and still showing some signs of those times. The old TVs need to be replaced by new flatscreen TVs, the room designs updated (although our deluxe rooms had new wooden flooring unlike the older standard rooms which had old carpets last time I visited), the decor modernized. That process appears to be occurring, albeit only slowly. Apart from that, breakfast is pretty good, though there could perhaps be a little more variety though this may depend on the level of occupancy since when I stayed, it was the low season. The only other confusing thing: where is the advertised running track? Unless they mean you have to run on the road?

Good all-inclusive hotel, but rooms need an update”

The Centara Mae Sot Hill Resort seems to be an institution in Mae Sot, as it's where all the motorcycle and car tours heading to Myanmar seem to stay, possibly due to it's large car park. Of course, these tours don't go very often as Myanmar has restrictions on foreign motorists, so the large car park will be largely available most of the time, if you come by car, except perhaps during holiday periods. Check-in was super quick and efficient, and the receptionists were very eager to help including printing out some documents for free. Wifi was good on the first day, but stopped working in the morning after a while using it. That wasn't a big deal as I was about to check-out anyway. Before doing so I went for a quick swim - big mistake, as the pool was full of local kids taking swimming lessons. It's unfortunate that the pool is not available for exclusive guest usage so better swim later in the afternoon or evening when the kids are gone. Breakfast was once again the best feature of the hotel - a good buffet with plenty of choices. Overall, I enjoyed my stay as I have on previous visits, but the hotel seriously needs to upgrade the rooms, including the decor, carpets, air-con, showers and TV, which are all stuck in the late 80s or early 90s. Prices also seem to be creeping up and could be a bit lower considering it's Mae Sot and the relatively old condition of the hotel.

Always Love to stay here, best in town”

I always stay at this hotel since 90s and it's one of my top choice at Mae Sot. The hotel is the best in town and you can relax here with good food. The hotel is very close to downtown and you can have a good Mae sot view from your room. Highly recommend everyone to stay.

Good Hotel in easily reached location”

well looked after by the staff, we were on a motorbike tour and found this to be a very good location. Rooms are all clean and although not the most modern, this isn't anything to be concerned about. Great singer/musician in the outside pavillion.

Great Value for Money”

Centara Mae Sot is a good value for the money. The hotel is a good choice for business or for tourism in the Mae Sot/ Umphang area. During both of my stays I found the staff to be very friendly. The food in the restaurant was good quality and reasonably priced. The hotel charges a reasonable fee of 80 Baht to pickup or dropoff travelers at the Mae Sot airport.

Great hotel for a small town”

Have stayed there on previous occasions, still the best hotel in Maesot. The Japanese buffet dinner for 300 Baht on Friday/Saturday evenings was a real bargain. The other restaurant located on the lake outside the hotel is great for evening dining. The only complaint is the poor wifi reception in the room to use a laptop. The van transport to/from the hotel to airport is useful, as taxi service is limited.

Lovely hotel with good service and facilities”

I have stayed in this hotel several other times and have enjoyed its location, service and facilities. This time the hotel has upgraded its staff quality, with improvement in English understanding and service. The hotel is popular with groups holding conferences and seminars, or people who wish to visit the border areas as it is the only reputable hotel around.

Best you can do in Mae Sod”

enjoyed my stay here. for the price, you can't do any better in mae sod. staff are helpful and the facilities are well maintained. you can stay in a guesthouse for a night, but you miss out on the nice pool and in-room bath tub. will go again.
