GGuest UserMy partner and I recently spent two nights at Hotel Aono in Chiang Mai, and it was the perfect peaceful retreat after busy days of exploring. This hotel excels at being a quiet, super clean base of operations with genuine Thai hospitality. The Aesthetic and Room Comfort (4.5/5) The hotel has a wonderful, clean, and minimalist aesthetic—think contemporary Thai design mixed with a touch of Japanese simplicity. Our Deluxe Double Room was spacious and spotlessly clean; honestly, the housekeeping team deserves massive praise, as you could constantly see them ensuring the whole place was immaculate. We appreciated the strong air conditioning and complimentary amenities. If I had one tiny note, the bed was on the firmer side, which is common in Thailand, but worth noting if you prefer a softer mattress. Service and Atmosphere (5/5) The staff here are the true stars. From check-in to check-out, everyone was genuinely friendly, attentive, and quick to help with directions or calling a taxi. Despite being close to the action, the hotel is surprisingly quiet. The garden area and the lovely outdoor swimming pool offer a tranquil place to relax and cool off, which was a real bonus after a hot afternoon. Location (4/5) The location in the Chang Khlan area is fantastic. It's not right inside the Old City walls, which keeps it peaceful, but it’s still highly convenient. We were just a short, easy walk from the famous Chiang Mai Night Bazaar and close enough to head to the Tha Phae Gate quickly. Being right next to the newly revitalized Khlong Mae Kha (Mae Kha Canal) also gave us a lovely place for an evening stroll. Verdict Hotel Aono is excellent value for money. If you are looking for a clean, quiet, and well-located hotel with exceptionally kind staff, this is a brilliant choice for a short city break in Chiang Mai. Highly recommended!
