stayed for 5 days ”

I stayed in this hotel for five days to maximize my stay in Chiang Mai. The best thing about this hotel is the landlady and her staff who are all polite and easy to deal with. Coming from a stressful trip, she allowed me to check in early ( I emailed her a day before). There are no elevators and I was assigned in the 4th floor so i guess this is something that other people should consider. It was fine to me though. The area is pretty safe and strategic to key transportation.

This guesthouse is well located, well priced for a good sized room with aircon and a fridge. We found it annoying having to keep asking for toilet paper and it was also quite noisy due to some construction work nearby. Other than that, an easy stay.

The best of this accommodation is the location, the price, quite and the friendly owner. The bed is not good and the mattress is more a board than a mattress. And in the wall between room and corridor is a window. If the light is on in the corridor the room is illuminated. But very cheap. It is okay for this price.

Simple and quite clean room - at 300 thb per night it is worth. 'regular' rate seems me a bit expensive : rooms are small and the one I had was missing to get paint refreshed (some braun strains on the wall nearby the bed look durty). The a/c remote control was not working. There is no fan, while most of the time at night it would be sufficient, ecologically and economicaly smart and healthier :)

Arrived very late and exhausted, owner was a bit of a pain on check in, knowing we would leave the next morning at 8 am, and it was already 11pm, she still wanted deposit for the key and take our passports, didnt like, no sensitive with the tourist. Also, our room was on the 4th level and there is no lift, so we almost died. Room is very basic and small, very average and the water was cold. Maybe you could find a better place for this value, I wouldn’t stay there again.

Nice Budget Hotel”

I only stayed one night due to late flight arrival convenience before paying up front for 4 nights at another hotel with a pool. The pool was nice but...I wish I had've stayed on at Banwiang: clean, well-run, great value for money with good basic facilities and excellent WiFi. The lady who runs it and her staff are very nice. It's in a quiet back street in the old part of Chiang Mai with many places to eat & drink nearby. If you don't need a pool (or an elevator) but you want good value, it's a nice place to stay. I would stay there again (and pay 100baht to swim in the other hotel's pool). Quick note: Agoda's booking had 12:00 check-out but it's 11:00 at the hotel, but they understood and didn't charge me for checking out late :)

Near the Old City without the noise”

Location in small, quiet lane but very close to bazaars and wats

we arrived late but got room quickly--wanted a twin room (change from double) and that was arranged promptly. fan room still cool on 4th floor in mid-march. small verandah with area to hang clothes, a plus for small items. otherwise, self-service laundry after 5pm downstairs, or plenty of laundries around area. also, safe deposits downstairs for day. room spacious for the price, and courteous staff. bathroom not spotless but decent. ran out of water the second day in the morning but engineer came to fix it, and we took our showers downstairs. loved that it's in a small side lane with many guest houses, but very quiet. 5 min walk to old city, many cafes including black canyon and brix (cafe). also close to night bazaar and saturday/sunday walking markets. we decided to extend our stay here as it's a pretty comfortable place.

This has been my go-to place in CM for 2 trips now. It's tucked away in a quiet Soi, close to the Thapae Gate and restaurant area of Ratwithee road. The owner is the most delightful, accomodating person you'll ever deal with. This trip, I bounced in and out of CM, staying a total of 7-8 nights over a month period, my room was always available, baggage was stored safely, laundry done on site. Cannot speak more highly of the owner, Highly recommend, I'll definitely keep it as my Go-to accommodation in Chiang mai

Nice stay in the center of old town”

The guesthouse is located in the old town of Chiang Mai. Close to everything on foot and pretty quiet (not on the main road). They propose breakfast in the morning and also motorbike rental or bus tickets. The staff is nice, although they are not many so you might not find someone at some time during the day. The rooms have small balconies and private bathroom with hot water, could be cleaner but it was fine for us. The value is great for the price.
