Baan Suchadaa Lampang Resort

This place is worth a couple of days trip in itself! Perfectly managed and very well maintained has great views on the rice paddies a beautiful swimming pool and a nice atmosphere! The restaurant is also very good!

I booked to stay 3 nights - and wish it had been more. Check-in was a little unsettling. There's some basic rules about meal times and ordering food to be followed - which make sense - but the staff's english was a bit limited and with the water levels of the lake quite low and the paddy fields dry....I began to think I'd chosen badly. I was wrong. The place is set in beautiful grounds, with bucolic views across sunrise fields to mountains in the distance. The pool is beautiful and stylish. The main guest reception area and the rooms are tastefully designed in traditional Thai style, with a lot of attention to detail. Breakfast is tasty and filling. Dinner was reasonably priced and good quality. The staff soon warm up to you so that communication isn't an issue. And Bas the host is pleasant company and informative to boot. I really liked this place, and would like to return. I think it would be best enjoyed over at least 2 nights, and, ideally, with your own transport. You are a 10 minute drive to central Lampang - which in my view gives you the best of both worlds: a pleasant little riverside town, and a wonderful country retreat. Thank you to everyone at Baan Suchadaa.

We spent 2 nights here having flown from UK so we were tired and arriving at this exquisite and tranquil place was wonderful. Only 1.5 hours from busy Chiang Mai and it seems a world away. Bas is a charming and welcoming host, the staff are friendly and helpful but don’t speak much English. Pool overlooking the rice paddies has to be the perfect place for a refreshing gin and tonic. Our room overlooked the pond, it was comfortable, well equipped and immaculately clean. Wished we could’ve stayed longer & would return in a heartbeat

After staying three nights, we can confirm that Baan Suchadaa is an exceptional place. However, the start was not as smooth as it could have been. First, the resort is really difficult to find if you travel without GPS. The problem is that there is only a very small sign beside the gate. Ok, that might have been our fault. But being urged to choose what you want to eat for dinner immediately after arriving was not very pleasant. Anyhow, the property is really beautiful and the room (we had the triple) was comfortable with very good beds and a decent bathroom. The pool is extremely nice and big enough for swimming. The only downside are the stairs that are a bit loose and have some sharp edges. To watch the sunset over the rice paddies is a great experience, although furniture are very low and not comfortable for eating. It would be good to have at least two tables in "western" dimensions. On the first day, the food itself was kind of disappointing since it was far from real Thai. The second day, we had more time to choose so we were more satisfied but still it was just falang food. In addition, the prices on the menue do not include service charge and taxes, a habit we don't like and one that's definitely not typical Thai. The days to come really improved this first impression. Breakfast was excellent in every aspect, I really had a great day relaxing in the garden. The staff were nice although they didn't speak much English. In total, we enjoyed our stay.

Set amidst rice fields on the outskirts of Lampang, the hotel is an oasis of peace and luxury. Looking out over the swimming pool in the hazy early morning light with a cup of coffee in your hand, you feel transported to a better planet. Bas, the owner, is something of a Renaissance man. Fluent in Thai, French, English, Dutch and German, guitarist, big bike fanatic, mountain bike aficionado, Asian traveller par excellence- he's the man. His charming wife Daa is the wizard in the kitchen. The food is succulent. Bike into town and visit the Sunday walking street and a wat or two. Scooter to the nearby Doi Khun Tan national park, check out the elephants, become a mahout, golf on the championship course and then have an in-house massage. Good humour guaranteed.
