Sooknirund Hotel

Very nice hotel with history located in the center of city, various options for breakfast. Rooms are big and clean, have spacious public areas for guests hangout.

This hotel is such a wonderful place to spend your holiday in! It’s located literally in the center of the city and compared to the other accommodations around it truly stands out with its’ services, cleanliness and quality! We stayed just for 2 nights and wished we had some more booked!

I stayed at Sooknirund Hotel and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. From the moment you enter, the garden smells like jasmine, which immediately sets a calm, welcoming tone. The staff were incredibly friendly and genuinely helpful. They offered great restaurant recommendations and helped with everything we asked for, including pointing us to a nearby laundromat. Little things like that made the stay feel easy and thoughtful. The rooms were very clean, well maintained, and the AC worked perfectly, which matters a lot in Thailand. Breakfast and coffee were both very good. They also provide free bicycles for guests, which made getting around fun and convenient. The location is ideal and right in the center of Chiang Rai, with nothing more than about 15 minutes away. The entire property is beautiful and photogenic without trying too hard to be an Instagram hotel. It feels tasteful, relaxed, and authentic. There is also a Starbucks connected to the hotel if that is your thing, though there are plenty of great local coffee spots nearby as well. I would absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Chiang Rai.

Good location. Near night bazaar

The room was terribly designed and not as good as in the pictures. Shower water pressure was so ridiculously low that the staff offered us to use the bathroom and shower in an adjacent room instead of our own which we declined. For the price, I don’t think the room was worth it. I would stay elsewhere should I have a chance to come back to Chiang Rai in the future. PS. Staff in general was rather well-trained. Not the 4 star standard, but not bad. The only plus was the location, since it’s just seconds walk away from the watch tower and a couple minute walk from the vibrant Saturday night market.

Nice hotel. A little too rustic and cosy for a business trip but I believe there are not too many formal biz hotels here. Location is perfect as it’s right in the town centre.
