::: INTRODUCTION :::
The hotel will be closed down operations at the current resort for moving to a new location just along the river for the month of September 08.
 The
Maekok River Village Resort is idyllically located on the banks of the
Mae Kok River with sweeping views across the water, to the forested hills
which form the border with Myanmar. The peaceful, rural setting makes an ideal
getaway for those wanting to escape the usual city tourist traps. For the
interested and adventurous, the resort makes an excellent jumping off point
for discovering Northern Thailand, so different from the bright lights of
Bangkok and Chiang Mai or the teeming resorts of Phuket or Pattaya. However,
there are also numerous activities available at the resort itself, allowing
guests to fill their days with a variety of experiences.
With less than 30 rooms, we pride ourselves
in providing the best possible service. All enquiries are personally handled
by the manager, and we will endeavor to make sure that every element of your
stay is as perfect as we can make it; and as good as you would wish for

::: HOTEL FACILITIES :::
 Swimming
pool - The 12 metre swimming pool and paddling pool for children, provide
a welcome and refreshing dip after a long day's touring or sightseeing
Sala lounge - This comfortable open
air lounge enjoys wonderful views across the river. Catching cooling valley
breezes, this is an ideal spot to catch up on holiday reading.
It is also available for private functions -
an early evening cocktail party can easily be organised at short notice!

The resort also has a small gym and herbal
sauna on the premises. There is also a classroom and meeting areas suitable
for small group seminars.
::: RESTAURANTS & DINING :::
 The
Riverside Bar and Restaurant have been designed and built in traditional style
using bamboo and rice straw thatch. Overlooking the water with wonderful views
across to the hills, and into the distance down river, it is memorable place
for guests to enjoy their meals.
Breakfasting, as the sun burns off the early
morning mist, lifting the early morning chill, is as magical as sipping a
pre-dinner cocktail, watching the colours on the surrounding hills change from
green to gold as the sun sets.
Our extensive menu provides diners with a
wide choice of Thai and Northern Thai specialities, and western dishes and
children's specials are also available. Western or Thai style BBQs are always
a favourite and special diets can be catered for. With a little notice, a
reception or party can be arranged.
The Old Rice Mill Bar - With various
reminders of rural Thailand in its d?cor, this bar is popular venue,
particularly on the colder winter evenings, or when summer downpours force
guests away from the Riverside!
