Hotels in Area north of the old city, Chiang Mai

This is a good budget hotel with the location approximately 10-15 minute walk to the old town. There are some bbq restaurants in the vicinity and a few decent coffee places not far. Outside of the hotel you can hire an electric bike or normal bicycle as part of the city wide scheme. I loved the fact the hotel had a 24 hour drink area where you could get hot water , tea, juice, water and coffee. They also have a range of drinks to purchase. The pool is a decent size but just felt a bit dirty when I used it with drinks bottles surrounding it and fallen leaves that hadn't been cleaned, which I know probably can't be helped. The room itself was a decent size with a hard bed. We were on the ground floor so had no view (other than of a wall) and I had nowhere to dry my swimming clothes. Had I stayed in a room with a balcony my experience may have been different. We couldn't get the safe to work and the receptionist did come and check it and said the battery was low and they would sort the following day but no-one did. The layout of the bathroom means that everything gets wet easily. Our drain was blocked in the shower on the first day but then the cleaner sorted during the clean of the room. I found staff to be friendly. I wasn't expecting the 300 baht deposit for the keycard upon check in (which is cash only). You also only get one keycard per room. I generally don't have cash but seemingly had some change in my wallet. If you're after a quiet budget hotel for a few days then I think this is potentially a good fit for you.

The room is comfortable, but the designer neglected the completeness and thoughtfulness of the functions. For example, there is no hook for hanging towels, and shower gel, shampoo and conditioner can only be placed outside the bathroom. The design of the bath towels in the bathroom is not very thoughtful. An iron rack is designed, and the towels have to be placed close to the paint wall on the iron rack, which feels uncomfortable. The height difference between the room and the toilet is too large, and it is dangerous if you are not careful. The hotel has problems with sound insulation, and there is a lot of noise from motorcycles and guests closing doors. The hotel breakfast is unique and the staff has a good service attitude.

This minimalist/industrial style has been apparently very popular in Chiang Mai, and this hotel has executed it well enough by keeping the lobby modern and airy, with so much space to chill. Pool is clean, and the slide by the side definitely adds some fun bonus. Room is spacious and clean, bed is comfortable enough to guarantee you a good sleep. However, the overall decor is a bit too simple that can be improved for more coziness. Overall, a good place, budget-friendly, covering all you need for a trip.

Though I saw some other reviews noted this is an older hotel, I was very pleasantly surprised walking into the immaculate lobby. Though outside the Old City walls, it's walking distance to the north side, including a famous street food area just outside the north wall, there are convenience stores nearby, the room was larger than others I stayed in within the Old Town walls, the beds were super comfortable, and the shower had great temperature and water pressure. The outdoor pool area is quite nice. The front desk service was friendly, attentive, and made good recommendations. On the whole it's a bargain, though a taxi ride is recommended for getting to locations closer to the south side of the central tourist area.

Despite being told that breakfast was included, we were abruptly stopped while getting food and informed otherwise. Throughout the rest of our stay, we felt closely monitored whenever we visited the coffee corner, which created a sense of unease. On a more positive note, the location was excellent, and the remainder of our stay was satisfactory.

This hotel is well located near the old quarter yet not that close so is quiet, rooms are comfortable and spacious, there are at least two or three temples really close. At night just beside there is a huge food night market

Good hotel. Looks like new. Pool is a bit useless, because in between and in the shadows, at least during winter season- it is a bit cold. Rooms are big, with kind size beds, big bath. Have restaurant and breakfast was nice too

The hotel room is stunning, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful rooms in Chiang Mai. A very pampering bath. Everything is perfectly designed. The reception staff is very kind and generous. Speak excellent English with lots of patience. But now let's start with the mourning. The cleaning is just terrible. I had ants in the shower in the towels. And in bed too. The cleaner only picked up one towel and didn't even change the sheets until I came back from the pool and alerted her. When I told them about the ants they wouldn't even bother to clean the room until 3 in the afternoon. In the end they changed my room and everything was fine. But in general cleanliness at a very, very low level. The worst breakfast I have ever seen. Even the buffet does not happen to eat. The cows don't dream at all. I personally ate only muesli. But in the end I just put granola and yogurt because everything else was inedible. There is no selection. It's not breakfast to that level at all. The location, I personally managed. But keep in mind that you have nothing around. There are no normal restaurants. Only local food which I personally like but you should know that there is nothing around. do not understand English at all. So the choice is yours. I think I have explained everything that is needed

This hotel is really great! You can see nice art everywhere, in the cafe, the lobby and the rooms. The hotel even has it's own art gallery. I read in a previous review that someone was complaining about the breakfast and the missing egg. I don't share this view at all: The breakfast is really great, you have 8!! options to chose from and you can get an egg and a piece of cake on top! The staff is extremly friendly and the room was really clean with a stylish bathroom. I would definately stay here again!!

Clean room , comfortable bed , Nice staff. Typical problem of booking a double bed and getting two singles ...Seems to be a constant issue with Thai hotels. They offer a choice of double or two singles when booking however its always subject to availability. How about cutting the BS and showing exactly what is available ?
