In the know
- Our favourite rooms
- Book one of the two chocolate-walled Baby Suites for the most romantic, whirlpool-bath-enhanced stay. All rooms are attractively decked out in old world Thai-colonial style, with rich greens, warm woods and cream hues. Little touches such as porcelain-handled taps, ornately framed paintings and brass ceiling fans make staying in Puripunn like stepping into oriental yesteryear.
- Packing tips
- Bring solid walking shoes if you plan on exploring the local hills and forests; make sure you have plenty of change for trinkets at the nearby Night Bazaar – three stories of local goods and craftworks.
- Also
- Puripunn offers classes in Thai cookery and, for more artistic foodies, fruit and veg carving.
Current offers
- Smith card offer
- A choice of either a Puripunn Chill or Puripunn Lovely cocktail each and 15 per cent off your first spa treatment
