Ayara Grand Palace Hotel

Within walking distance of the train station. Loved everything about this hotel and was sad we only planned for one night in the town.

Clean tidy rooms hotel was quiet staff helpful lovely stay

I stayed here for one night on a two-week self-driving road trip that included Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Lampang, Nan, and Nong Khai, following the Mekong and the borders with Laos and Cambodia and return to Chiang Mai via Phitsanulok and Sukhothai ||||This is a typical It’s a typical Asian city-center-style budget hotel the likes of which can be found throughout Thailand and the region in general.|||| I chose this accommodation because it had ample parking and good reviews. ||||The room and bathroom were large, comfortable, and reasonably clean. The refrigerator, air conditioning, hot water, and wi-fi worked well. The bedding, towels, etc. were good.|||| ||At a walk-in rate of 950 THB, I thought it was average but perfectly suitable for a night’s stay. A local-style breakfast was also included.

This was a nice hotel that I found while at a funeral. Room clean, bed soft, bathroom clean (no mold) air conditioner worked well, biggest problem I found, restaurant not open, except for a ridiculous and cold breakfast. You can tell at one time this hotel used to be grand, but I guess since covid-19 it has fallen on hard times. It looks like they are struggling to keep the doors open. Don't look for it to be there too long.

A decent and good hotel for a couple of nights. The rooms are spacious and in decent shape but in my room the aircon was very bad and very slow to cool the room down. The location is okay pretty close to market, restaurant, train station and 7/11. Pool area is better on pictures than in real life but still decent and useable. No possibily for early check in even though you have Agoda platinum vip membership as I found a bit odd cause the hotel was far from full.

This unfortunately was the worst of the 9 hotels we stayed in. The "pool" which looked OK from a distance was green with algae and the walls a bottom were green a slippery. The bottom was uneven and coming away. There were broken brackets around the skimmers which were very sharp and dangerous. There was no were to sit or put your towels as the pool side furniture belonged to the rooms which opened out onto the poolside. The one bench based in the garden was surrounded by cigarette butts. The room was adequate but the towels were threadbare and the shower curtain fell down while we showered. The bar was based in the restaurant not very clear. You sat on patio furniture which wasn't a very comfortable place to enjoy your food. The drink and food menu was pretty basic but the food we had was good quality. A quiet and reasonably comfortable nights sleep. Breakfast was pretty basic. Wouldn't recommend this hotel.

Agree, this is the least favourite hotel on the 8 night tour of Thailand. Comfortable but decor is a little weird, trying too hard to be modern and western looking. Small bathroom but nice comfortable bed. Breakfast was okay too. Nice to be in a small town to have a walk round and look at what the locals are eating from the market stalls - didn’t try the scorpions. Felt we were the only westerners in the area, but still felt safe. Had a drink from the hotel bar and sat outside the front, which made a nice change.
