Staying at the scorpion tailed boat village was a great experience. The owners treated you like family and were always there to help you when you needed. The complimentary breakfasts were also delicious. I advise you to have the Thai breakfasts when Mie asks you what you want to enjoy her great cooking. The place was sometimes unknown to taxi... More

My family of 6 stayed in the family hut for over a week. We enjoyed the personalised service of the owners. These folks will bend over backwards to make your stay comfortable. During our week + stay, they purchased a crib for our toddler, a coffee pot for our room, arranged multiple tours, helped us order pizzas and taxis, assisted... More

Scorpion is an excellent place to stay. Everything is really clean and the staff is the most kind staff you can imagine. If you like a quiet accomodation in a green surrounding you must come here to stay. If we come back to Chiang Mai we will stay here again. Rainer+ Sabine from Germany More

It was a great experience staying at the Scorpion Tailed boat Village hotel. Not far from the city central and yet you feel you are living in the forest. The feeling of the very old days living style of the Thai people in these huts is just wonderful. At the nearby on the river edge you will find the best... More

The village is located on the bank of the river about a mile outside of the city. It is a fairly easy walk to Chaing Mai. For those who wish a more urban setting with immediaste access to town, , I would recommend something in the city. However, for those travelers wishing a cozy, quiet, peaceful place to stay, this...

The traditional mud huts added to the Thai experience. Very friendly, helpful and informative staff who would do anything to make your stay more enjoyable. If in Chiang Mai again, i would gladly stay there again. More

I couldn't have asked for a nicer place to chill out after spending a week diving. The owners and staff were helpful and as pleasant as could be. They are willing to go the extra distance to enhance my stay here. I couldn't have asked for anything more. More

We found this "village" having taken a river boat trip on the scorpion tailed boat. Fascinating history from the head boatman who turned out to be the originator of this small complex which is constructed by traditional methods of building handed down through the generations, including the use of cow dung to prevent ants. EWe weren"t staying at this viilage,... More

This was the perfect place to stay for us. Close to they city but with a country feel. Transportation to the city is readily available. The very friendly owners are fun to talk with and ready to help make arrangements. We really enjoyed the gardens, variety of trees and the cozy, clean bunglaow and eating area. Directly accessible from the... More
