The Rose of the North
Surrounded by Thailand’s highest mountains, Chiang Mai is the beloved, idyllic and somewhat mystical capital of the North. With more than 300 temples, it's considered one of the most important cultural centers in the country.
Despite being Thailand's fifth-largest city, Chiang Mai still has a relaxed and laid-back feel. Modernity, trendy shops and boutique hotels haven’t altered much of its picturesque and peaceful atmosphere.
This reputation is partly due to its proximity to lush green areas, mountains like Doi Suthep, and its panoramic Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep temple. The Doi Inthanon National Park is 37 miles away with Thailand’s highest mountain.
Hotels in Chiang Mai’s old city center are a popular choice, with picturesque scenery featuring its moat and older temples. Chiang Mai hotels can also be found around the Chang Klhan Rd, where the famous Night Bazaar takes place.
The city’s nightlife runs along the Loi Kroh Rd, while Ratchadamneon Road hosts the main Sunday night pedestrian market. Don’t forget to buy an umbrella from Bo Sang and eat a bowl of kao soi.

The temples were beautiful and the food was delicious.
The temples were beautiful and the food was delicious. Favorite food would have to be the food given at the “Thai Khantoke Dinner & Cultural Dance Show” me and my friends attended. It was really easy to get around whether it was by taxi or just walking. We were a group of 10 and we also played with elephants at the Happy Elephant Home which was amazing and super ethical.

Chaing Mai is the sweetest most darling city in Thailand.
Chaing Mai is the sweetest most darling city in Thailand. It is busy but not overwhelming, the people are friendly. It has the best fashion and shopping, and the best food! It was easy to get around on a motorbike. Khoa Soi was awesome, I was even able to find a vegan version. We took a Thai cooking class, did yoga, hung out in coffee shops, bars, explored historic temples, visited the night markets, and drove the motorbike up the the waterfalls.

The food in Chiang Mai is amazing, especially for vegan/vegetarian diets.
Getting around the old town is easily done on foot and most hotels have bicycles available.
It’s a great place to travel from - either for treks or road trips in the northern provinces.

There is a lot to see and do in this area of Thailand.
There is a lot to see and do in this area of Thailand. Who knew so many temples and sights could be contained in just the area of the old city? There are also some great sights not too far from Chiang Mai. Tourism is well organized and most companies will pick you up and return you to your hotel for both local and further tours.
“It's so clean and very comfort with the cheap price. The strategic place for walking around the old city or chang puak night market. The staffs are the best!😊”
“Such a great hotel! Had such unique character and excellent quality. Excellent location, with free shuttle to old city (but you are close enough to walk too). The reception staff is very friendly and will help you book activities and provide advice on things to do. The complementary breakfast has nice selection. Would definitely stay here again the next time we are in Chiang Mai! Loved it!”
“Great pool, quiet even though they're right in the heart of the old city. Awesome location, super helpful staff went above and beyond, even helping us retrieve lost items from a taxi driver after our stay ended.
Best hotel of our trip by far, will return there.”
“The property was very new and location was one of the best in Chiang Mai old city. Decoration was hip with an old VW van converted to a bar on ground level.”
“It's located within the old city walls in a quiet alley. The area around the hostel is very clean and has so many delicious and cheap food options. The breakfast is very good for the price and its immaculately clean. The best thing about the place is the staff, however. Particularly, Chuen, one of the front desk/coffee shop staff, is amazing. He was so sweet and nice to us our whole time there and helped us with any questions we had or trip planning. ”
“They were so helpful at every step of every second of the day -- would stay here for sure !!!!!!! great choice -- great location -- great staff!!!!
JUST BOOK IT!!”
“This enormous hotel is like a city ! there's restaurants inside, bars, large swimming pool and terrace, fitness room, sauna, jacuzzi.. and lots of other facilities.”
“The location of the hotel was perfect. I was able to walk around Chiang Mai and visit the local temples on my own. Plus any day trips were very easily organized.”
