Description
This place has two buildings, a small wooden house and a multi-storey concrete job down the road. Overall this is quiet a good budget traveller option. The rooms were clean and cheap with a bathroom and hot shower, though we have heard that if you don't book their trekking trips the guesthouse might suddenly become full. The restaurant in the wooden building is pleasant and has a pool table. Staff get good reports.

Quiet and friendly -
By igetfuzzy ( total comments: 4  More information please ) Stayed here 6/2005
We stayed in a twin room with fan. The room is basic, no frills, but clean. We also had hot water. We booked the hill trek here too. The host, WanChan is super friendly and helpful... we still keep in touch.


Basic but clean -
By kay_kay ( total comments: 1  More information please ) Stayed here 12/2004
Stayed in a triple room which had a suprisingly big bathroom. Everything was functioning. Basic room but service was friendly and good. We booked our hilltrek trip from here and left our backpacks in storage. Close enough to the main streets but no noise reaching the hostel. Not a bad place to stay if you are on a budget.


A bit run-down -
By hessie82 ( total comments: 6  More information please ) Stayed here 12/2006
We stayed here in the middle of the King's anniversary (national holiday in Thailand) and all the other hostels were fully booked. This was our fourth choice and rightly so. Although it was very cheap (250B for a single bedroom with A/C) it was a bit shabby and the shower didn't work at all. Nevertheless the location is very good and the owners are friendly.


Quiet, Clean and Friendly -

Paid B 250 for double room w/ fan and hot water. Near lots of cool bars but far enough that music won't keep you up at night. Don't eat at the cafe unless you are fine with waiting 20 minutes for coffee and toast.

Nice Place Tour and Travel 2
133 Ratchapakinai Rd, Chiang Mai
Nice Place's big sell is its pool. You can smell the chlorine from 100m away, but the backpacker room prices make it an attractive extra that few other guesthouses match. Trekking pressure here is a major issue, so if you're not planning on trekking don't be surprised to find out the place is... more



Banana Guest House
4/9 Ratchapakinai Rd, Chiang Mai
This popular Japanese-Thai managed place is often full, though the popularity is a little difficult to fathom as the staff were really offhand upon our last visit.

Top North Guest House
15 Moon Muang Rd Soi 2
This massive guesthouse is an ok choice for families or travellers willing to pay a little more for some creature comforts.

Eagle House 2
26 Ratchawithi Rd
This is the second branch of the very popular Eagle House.

Rose Guest House
87 Ratchamankha Rd, Chiang Mai
Set atop the Jungle Corner Bar, the rooms here are very basic with paper-thin walls guaranteeing ample eavesdropping opportunities -- light sleepers you've been warned.

198 Ratchapakinai Rd, Chiang Mai
This old Chinese-Thai hotel has prison-style rock hard beds set in non-descript air-con/fan rooms. The bathrooms are clean but basic. Most rooms have a small balcony and a tiny window.
