Best Hotels Chiang Rai Thailand

Our core mission when finding you the best hotels in Chiang Rai:

  • Design – We believe you should sleep somewhere that inspires you – No matter your budget.
  • Unique – No cookie cutter rooms. Always feel like you are somewhere new and exciting.
  • Near Good Food – Whether in the hotel itself, or very nearby. Your tastebuds need satisfaction!

Where are the BEST places to stay in Chiang Rai?

 

Chiang Rai Night Market

Downton is the best place to stay in Chiang Rai for budget accommodation. There are actually very few accommodation options near the White Temple (Which is by far the best reason for visiting Chiang Rai – it’s amazing!), and once the temple closes in late afternoon there is nothing there. So staying in downtown (or riverside – see below) means you’ll be close to the night market and other restaurant options.

The downtown bus station is smaller than the out of town bus terminal. Some buses terminate out of town and you may need to change bus to get to the centre.

Riverside

The banks of the Mekong river offer a completely different experience from the rest of the town. Worth a visit even if you are not staying in that area. The riverside is home to a number of luxury resorts.

Airport Transfers

Travel in air conditioned comfort at the time of your choosing. Don’t worry about public transport or haggling with taxi drivers. Be greeted at the airport and driven to your hotel in style and comfort with a pre booked private transfer.
