Doowall Hotel

From the moment we arrived, the staff were both incredibly friendly and attentive. Our bags were taken to our room and we were given an overview of the facilities and food options. There is free tea, coffee, water and some snacks at the reception kitchen, which is a really nice touch. The room itself… wow. We stayed in one of the lake view cottages and it was an absolute slice of heaven. In the middle of a jam packed busy travel schedule, this was exactly what we needed. The pool area is small but clean and idyllic. We enjoyed catching some rays in the late afternoon and then in the morning before checking out. Only two sunbed, but most of the hotel rooms have private pools so we didn’t find this affected us. The location is prime for the White Temple in particular. They offer free bikes which we used to cycle over for the final hour of opening, which was the perfect time for a quiet visit. We were tempted by the morning but we were too relaxed to get up and leave in the end. I anticipate the morning is even more of a quiet time to visit the temple though. You MUST get the Pad Thai. It was exceptional and different from any others we’ve tried. Definitely had their own twist on the dish which we loved. If you’re looking for a completely unique stay, outside of the tourist areas for one or a few nights, I couldn’t recommend this place enough. A final shoutout to the staff who immediately did a ‘nervous’ of our room after checking out, and returned my partner’s shorts which he’d left. Those are the touches that make all the difference to a stay. Thank you Doowall Hall!

The location of the resort is excellent, being very close to the famous White Temple. It's a unique experience to witness the temple's beauty at both daytime and nighttime. Additionally, the resort has staff members who can speak and understand Chinese and Korean, which greatly improves communication. Waking up to the stunning view of a picturesque field and lake right in front of you is truly a highlight of the stay. I will recommend deluxe twin for couple / 2 pax traveller. the garden view twin room is kind of small.

Incredible service, scenic, beautiful views, swings, hammocks, paddle boat, push bikes, private pool was superb, very close to the famous white temple, blow up unicorn for communal pool, the small extra fee for a honeymoon package with rose petals in to the bath a small rose bouquet and a pandan cake was very worth it, breakfast was lovely, free snack bar was an extra bonus, pod coffee machine in our room, beautiful outdoor eating area with festoon lights at night.

Stylish rooms, comfy bed, pool and the view from the room was very nice. Girls at reception were very helpful and sweet. Great location for early access to the white temple to beat the crowds! We got photos of the temple with no one in the background which is normally impossible. Awesome smart tv's in rooms so you can synch your phone to the tv easy.

You have to select your breakfast and the breakfast time already the evening before, what is actually more sustainable then a buffet for a small resort like this. The location is very quit, if only some guests would behave more quit as well.
