Buakham Resort is in the Buddhist tourist area of the Golden Triangle, about 10 km north of Chiang Saen. but it's a nice garden setting away from the main drag.

The resort had a lovely garden setting and my room was spotlessly clean, with a fridge and good value for the price. even though coffee was the only complimentary option in the morning.

My room was clean and had beautiful wood floors, plus a balcony overlooking the Mekong River which was awesome. The A/C worked well, and though it was a bit small, it was comfy enough for my needs.

Service

While my experience with the staff was mostly fine, I did notice they could be a bit grumpy at times, which was a letdown. The service wasn't what I hoped for but not a deal-breaker either.

It’s worth noting that the resort is not in Chiang Saen itself, but in Wiang, a cool little village that's about 10 km north of the city. The location is nice and peaceful, though a bit of a walk from the main drag.

Dining

There’s a restaurant/cafe on-site where I could get good food, but I wish they offered breakfast too. Still, plenty of places to eat in the village nearby.
