Independent hotels in Bang Pla Ma

"Decided to stay at Baan Penny during a 1 day visit in Ayutthaya. Chose this hotel for its close proximity to the temples and based on previous visitor reviews. I was so glad to have stayed here! I was nicely welcomed by staff and by Gerhard (owner of the hotel). Gerhard then showed me my bungalow, the facilities, then arranged to lend me a bicycle (available to guests) so I can leisurely tour all of Ayutthaya. He even gave me maps and key tips on which temples to visit, attractions I shouldn't miss and where I can go for dinner. All very helpful as I didn't have much time to explore Ayutthaya. Gerhard even helped to get breakfast cooked for me the next morning and kindly arranged a tuktuk driver to get me to the train station after breakfast. What lovely service!! Gerhard and his helpful staff makes this a perfect place to stay at in Ayutthaya. I would certainly recommend staying here for anyone wanting to be right by the historical area. One piece of advice if travelling by train from Bangkok, note that tuktuk drivers will prefer to take passengers on a day tour of Ayutthaya versus taking a small fare to merely take you to your hotel. I had to walk away from the train station across the bridge and into the outskirts of town just to find a willing scooter to drive me close to Baan Penny. Either you use the Grab App or perhaps arrange with Gerhard to get his trusted tuktuk driver to get you from the train station. This way you avoid the hassle of getting to the hotel. "

"We chose this hotel as it was very near all the ruins of Ayuttaya. It’s a very pretty hotel very much in keeping with the style of the area which added to our Ayuttaya experience. The staff were very friendly; they made lovely Thai food in the evening which we ate sitting under cooling trees outside. They booked a tuk tuk driver (reasonably priced) for us for the next day to go around the ruins For breakfast beforehand we chose fresh mango and Thai food again (Western food was an option) This hotel was a perfect choice for our Ayuttaya stay."

"You arrive as a customer and leave as family"

"Nana took such great care of us during our stay. We were thoroughly spoilt. Anyone looking for a more personal experience would not hesitate in recommending. Breakfast and dinner were available. Traditional Thai and American options Tuk tuk tour arranged for historical sites. We had an amazing day out. A little bit outside of town which was a welcome relief to the hustle and bustle. Gardens well maintained. A little piece of heaven. For those without own transportation to and from cattani Nana is able to assist with arranging taxi transportation from Bangkok. "

"Quiet"

"The property and my room are clean and tidy. Not a lot of options for breakfast but it's sufficient and taste good. It's located by the river, pretty relaxing atmosphere."

"Here is a paradise away from home! The staff welcome you with a kind, generous smile who ensure you feel 100% comfortable! The room is very comfortable, with great bathroom! Hot water and great Aircon! The common spaces are magical- lots of tables and chairs to sit with a beautiful view of the river and a clean pool to have a dip in after a hot day! Breakfast has many options- from omelette with or without meat and cereals and fruit! Only thing is dinner service ends at 6pm- but local night markets around! Definitely need a car or a scooter to get around! Would definitely go back! "

"Absolute bargain hotel close to the historic sights and nightlife with clean room, good a.c. comfy bed and plenty of options to eat nearby."

"This was the perfect location to explore the historic sites. The hotel is lovely, particularly the garden and top veranda. The owner was very helpful as were the staff. "
