At Gate Thaphae Hotel

Very nice hotel, in the middle of Chaing Mai city. The decoration and design of the rooms and also of the hotel itself is really nice with beautiful lights at night and the rooms are very clean. What I liked the most is the quiet of the place, although it is in Chiang Mai city! You can go then to the night market and then just relax in the hotel. The staff was really nice too and the breakfast was simple but very ok. I recommand this hotel!

great location and perfect for seeing all the songkran celebrations

The style of the hotel and the position in the city. Also the rooms were super nice

Many lighting options. Cute terrace suitable for a nap, drying laundry, and reading. Lobby and cafeteria area were so spacious and meticulously cleaned up everyday. People here are so kind, patient and generous and we appreciated that no one ever gave us any pressure about anything. They were also very attentive to every inquiry and request we had. Beds here are perfect. Linens and mattresses are crispy, soft, comfortable and pleasant. We slept so well during our stay! The tiles, decoration, windows, bathroom details are so satisfying, and water pressure/temperature never failed us. Spacious room and thorough housekeeping service everyday. My local friend told us that rooms here are a bit overpriced but we loved the service and atmosphere so much we ended up booking another week. Highly recommended if you are more of the picky guest!

One of the bathroom lights kept blinking during our stay. At night the back of the street was too dark, and some of the nearby bars seemed sketchy(except for the nearest one!). Get prepared to see some flying ants and mosquitos in the room. Privacy issue as the terraces face each other, but there are curtains so we were not too bothered.

Everything. The location was in a quiet street just outside the old city but easy walking distance to many restaurants, shops and markets.

Nothing

For a first time visit to Chiang Mai, the location is second to none. Yet, delightfully, the rooms are completely silent at night and the beds are superbly comfortable. WiFi is first-rate too and I had many video-conference calls in the room with no issues.

There's nothing wrong with this place, however the breakfast - while the breakfast staff are friendly and make the effort - has been scaled down since the pandemic I think. No buffet (even though it's on the menu) and they don't know how to cook an omelette, but they can scramble eggs in an omelette shape and smile with genuine goodwill. There must be a hundred places locally which offer different kinds of breakfasts, so no need to bother with the hotel one. Don't include it in the price.
