Le Patta Hotel Chiang Rai

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.15km from Chiang Rai Night Bazaar
We arrived around 9 pm, taxi from airport 160B (the company left out of airport doors). Very friendly front staff who checked us in fast and then told us about the town and gave us a map. They told us about the walking markets, the Saturday one was still on and recommended for us to go, we did. We had a king room, 2nd floor, with a view alongside the pool. Rooms along the pool are in shade all day which is nice if you want to sit on the balcony in the afternoon. Room was very clean, nice king bed, TV, fridge (with bag of chips, peanuts, ice tea and Pepsi inside, included with room price, refilled as needed), 4x500 ml glass refillable bottles of water to start, kettle, tea/coffee, safe, good lighting, work desk with little desk lamp (real nice touch), power outlet at desk for charging and overall lots of room for our luggage. Curtains did a good job of keeping the room dark. Good wifi also. Elevator and stair access to all floors. Breakfast was wonderful, we absolutely enjoyed everyone. Some days (weekend) they have an egg station with ham and bacon. When not, they have a menu that offers complete egg dishes as well as Asian and local items. Also every day there is a nice selection of fresh fruit, salad items, breads, juices, milk, water, teas and coffee machine which make several types of coffee including cappuccino. You can eat inside or outside (if available and warm enough). Loved the breakfasts for the Asian items, khao soi, shrimp siu mai and fresh made rotis were our favourites. They have a nice pool with loungers but we never used as busy all day then enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a cold drink overlooking the pool. The location is great also, the Saturday night walking market it very close, less than 5 mins walk. The Night Bazaar is maybe a 10-15 min walk depending on the route taken. There is a 7-11 about 5 mins walk also. Fruit market around the corner. Restos nearby too. The front desk staff was friendly and very helpful, especially the one young man we chatted with often when he was on shift. When leaving, he arranged a complimentary transfer for us to the bus station, very nice, great employee. Doing a little for the environment, we often have our room made up every second day. We do ask for whatever would normally come with a make up, water, coffee/creamer, TP if needed and the hotel is usually happy to do that. We don't have fresh towels every day at home, why would it be needed on vacation. One of the best all round hotels, we've ever stayed. It was a great place, would gladly stay again if in the area.

Excellent location, quiet and yet a short walk from everything: bars, restaurants and massage shops surround the hotel and the night market, Saturday market, clock tower and bus station are all very near. The breakfast buffet was decent for a hotel in this price range. The hotel itself is like stepping back in time. It would have been very classy 35 years ago, but now the elegance has aged. The control panel next to the bed no longer turns on music and you have to work out what the other controls do. (e.g. the switch marked ”TV” operates the bedside light.) Rooms are large with a decent bathroom with a proper bath. I stayed there twice, in a Superior room (the lowest level) and then a Deluxe. While the Deluxe had a few tiny improvements in fittings, the main advantage was having a decent number of power points. The Superior had no spare power points whatsoever in the bedroom, just one in the bathroom. Fortunately, the maid was able to give me a power board. (She didn't know much English, so I showed her a picture of one on my phone and she raced off and got one.) Then I was able to plug in everything via the socket the TV uses. The pool is strange, cold and stark, surrounded by concrete walls and situated on the ground floor. It's not even obvious how to get to it! There's one entrance through the restaurant and another from the second floor down a big flight of stairs. The only real negative is the wifi. It's atrocious and extremely weird. I had multiple devices connect to the same access point, yet get directed by DHCP to different routers! My phone always connected to one that worked (slowly), but my other devices would mostly get connected to one that didn't do anything. Of course, the front desk staff had no clue what was going on. Broadband on your phone in Thailand is cheap (150 baht/month for AIS 4G) so it's not the big deal it once would have been.

Sleepy House Chiang Rai

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai Chiang Rai|0.27km from Chiang Rai Night Bazaar
It's a perfect place to stay with friends. The TV has Netflix, the air conditioner works well, and the veranda isn't wide, but it was fine. The scent of the diffuser is rather strong, so if you are sensitive, it would be nice to leave a message in advance. It is near the bus stop, so it is convenient to move around. There are many brunch cafes around, so if you want to eat Thai food, it's better to go a little farther. I recommend mom mai restaurant. It is said to be a northern cuisine, but the menu is very numerous and delicious. I don't know if the water in Chiang Rai is good or if this accommodation is good, but the shower filter that turned yellow in a day in Chiang Mai didn't change at all here. All the staff are very kind. The laundry service was also satisfactory, and I checked out late because of the bus time, but they moved my luggage to another room because the room I was using was reserved. It's a two-story building, but there are only stairs, so be prepared to carry your luggage. Breakfast was good for a light bite. Above all, the cat is so kind and cute... From the veranda on the 2nd floor, I saw a cat lying in the yard downstairs and greeted it, and as soon as it saw us, it came up to the 2nd floor. It's a dog cat.. He came into the room and played. I could feel that the owner and staff really love cats. Please note that the cats stay in the house during the day because it is hot and come out around the sun setting and walk around the accommodation.

Bed & Bike Hostel
4.3/54 Reviews
Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai
Probably the cleanest hostel I've been in so far. Shoes were forbidden throughout the hostel and all toilets and showers were cleaned regularly. There was an area where cookies, water, tea and coffee were provided free of charge. The location was really great, there were lots of restaurants and bars right next to the hostel, the night market and the bus station were less than a 5-minute walk away. I was super satisfied and can recommend it to anyone visiting Chiang Rai. 10 out of 10 👌👍

The style is unique and brilliant. The room area is also very large. I booked it one month in advance. The store gave a room 202. Both walls of the room are windows. It's so awesome! It is better to book in advance, and foreign hotels will reserve the best location! The breakfast is also very good, with two Thai desserts!

Amphoe Mueang Chiang Rai
I arrived at this hostel today. It is a beautiful hostel with nice facilities and everything is new and well maintained. The girl behind the counter was super friendly and helpful! Hostel is located right next to the bus station and the Sunday night market in the center so the location is also perfect. Good working air conditioning and comfortable beds. There is also a kitchenette with a refrigerator where you can put your things. Would 100% recommend this hostel.
