Wish we could have stayed here longer. It was outstanding experience! It is on the level of hotel. We had one room with very comfortable king bed. The room was spotless, we received complementary food, tooth brush and other essentials every day. You can have coffee etc. in the kitchen, too. It included self-service breakfast (eggs, toasts, sausages, jam, coffee etc). There is a gym, common space area with board games, billiard. You can rent a bike vis Mercy hotel (B-rider which is reliable and rhe best rental company). The location is excellent and quit. Actually, the whole place is quit and they keep it quiet after 10 pm. Last but not least, the staff was genuinely so kind and helpful. If we ever visit it again, we will stay here. Thank you so much for making our time in Chiang Mai so great.

Chean-Chean House is a lovely small guest house with only 4 rooms and a large common balcony. My room was directly connected to the balcony, which gave us a dining table outside. The room was tastefully decorated and contained a small fridge as well as a kettle. The bed was very comfortable, the en suite bathroom was quite nice with a nice hot shower. Location was in a quiet residential street opposite a Buddhist Temple. The lady that ran the place was very nice, and quite cheerful.

I stayed for 1 night to check, and extended for 2 more nights. The staff was friendly, breakfast was a nice touch, location very good, and cleanliness perfect. There are 2 toilets and 2 showers. A good towel is provided, and you can even find hairdryers and iron. Each bed has a light, charger, and also a locker. The hostel is social but still quiet. Has a common area inside and a seating area outdoors.

One of our best stays in Thailand! Lovely accommodation with a comfortable bed and great facilities. There’s a kettle, free coffee and tea on the ground floor. The host is such a beautiful soul, she helped us a lot with everything. She doesn’t speak English, but that wasn’t a problem at all, as she used a translator to communicate with us. I highly recommend this place!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
