Fantastic location and beautiful scenery. Staff very accommodating; couldn’t do more for us! Unfortunately, the bed sheets and pillows were stained in 4 different places. Looked like coffee and makeup. Reception not 24/7 so couldn’t contact as it was later after dinner. Made for an unpleasurable sleep.

Great spot!
Just exceptional staff, spoke great English, made it easy to book different excursions. Go check out Cheow Lan Lake for sure. Room was clean, they gave free snacks, A/C worked very well. Beautiful pool. Really close to the village and restaurants, only a 5 min walk. Highly recommend it.

The property itself is quite nice and the location at the edge of town makes it convenient for walking while being quiet. We stayed in the original buildings which were clean, but a little tired, the bungalows looked nice but we did not see it. We were only in and out for 2 nights and only there to sleep - it was clean. A solid 3 star hotel, but once you've been to this area - I don't see a reason to go back

Amazing staff! Great value, stage for lake trip
Amazing staff!!! Everyone there especially front desk and tours went above and beyond to be friendly, helpful, and just plain awesome. Expressed genuine concern for medical conditions when booking the overnight lake tour and private transfer afterwards, even going so far as to suggest a shorter and less expensive package. They even gave me the location of another tour office/hotel that might have something better (they didn’t) And when I insisted I would be fine with the overnight they called to make sure the hours for electricity on the lake would be suitable. They arranged a transfer to Phuket to meet me at the lake and bring my large luggage so I wouldn’t have to go back to the hotel 1 hr to get it.
The food at the hotel was excellent. The accommodations for the price were good. You are in the middle of the forest so as long as you aren’t expecting city luxury you’ll be happy. Some noise from the rain forest at night but that’s going to be everywhere. They had a nice pool area and are constructing more cabins.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. May was always smiling and took very good care of our needs. The room was very rustic but probably one of the nicest for the area. Breakfast was fresh and awesome every morning! Would definitely recommend!

A gem in the rainforest
The location was great just outside of the main village with forest views and the accommodation was traditional and comfortable. Note there is some building work underway but we were only there one night so didn’t disturb us.
The staff were lovely, bringing us afternoon tea on our veranda and helping us book a fabulous lake tour.
Would definitely recommend.

The staff was exceptional! They were really helpful with any questions and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. The location was perfect for us. We were able go walk through all the restaurants and down to the national park entrances within 15mins. The staff helped organize a canoe tour even though it was pouring rain which really made our day considering it was nonstop raining for the past 48hours. Luckily midway through our tour the sun started to peak out. 10/10 recommend. The AC was directed to our bed which was a little uncomfortable but the restroom and room its self was fully stocked and tidy. Again, the staff really went above and beyond so if we decide to return this is the place we are staying at!

Wonderful
Had a wonderful time here. The rustic bungalows have a special charm and you can see they go out of their way to make the experience enjoyable. Shout out to Nok Nok the manager, who brought us tea and Thai snacks and who always greeted us with a friendly smile. The grounds are beautiful and the views from the cabins are incredible. Its close enough to town that you can walk to all the shops and restaurants, national park entrance etc, but also far enough to enjoy the quiet and solitude. Highly recommend

Staff was unbelievably friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great! Appeared to be family run and they arranged all of our transfers by email. When we went on our longtail boat lake tour(excellent)they arranged it and provided towels, waterproof bags and headlamps. Little town within walking distance had great food and even a place to get a latte. We did not want to leave.

We would recommend staying at this accommodation wholeheartedly.
The staff and management are the best and friendliest we have experienced in all of our travels around Thailand.
Nok Nok ( hope that is the correct spelling!) went above and beyond providing a knowledgable, helpful and personal advice.
We were sad to leave and would return in a heartbeat.

I can’t even begin to describe how perfect this hotel was! The staff was INCREDIBLE, especially madame Mae who went above and beyond to arrange tours and shuttles for us. At one point the staff even brought us afternoon tea. Perfectly located next to the park. Above and beyond my expeditions. If you are going to Khao Sok, you should definitely look into montania!

Montania is located in the rain forest but has all the comforts. The airconditioning is excellent, the beds are very comfortable and the traditional cottages are quaint and exceptionally neat and clean. The staff are most welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. Breakfast was a highlight with the food being of top quality and great variety. Loved the fresh fruit and banana pancakes. The tours were easy to organise at short notice, however, we weren't pressurised i to taking tours. Waterproof bags, torches and towels were supplied for our trip to the lake. I had very high hopes for our trip to Khao Sok, and Montania made it a reality. Thank you!

A little gem
1 night only stay but we loved it. It’s not a high end property like we are used to but this was great. Quite traditional cottage style rooms which were clean and comfortable set amongst beautiful surroundings. Service was excellent - the staff could not do enough for us and were delightful and super friendly.
