Chirin Home ฌิรินทร์โฮม

10/10 - Easily one of my favorite hotels in CM. Every time I arrive in Chiang Mai, I stay here for the first few days/week when I know I want to cool place to rest away from the hustle and bustle. Place is impeccably clean - rooms, common areas, pool. I have serious mold allergies, so I am serious about clean and dry accommodations. Staff is awesome and welcoming. Rooms are huge by my standards. Beds super comfy. Staying down an alley in what feels like a small compound gives so much privacy and easy vibes. High quality supermarket, 7-11, massage, pharmacy, all about a 4 minute walk. My favorite motorbike rental spot - [Vanada Tour, 28 Charoenprathet Rd] is right across the river (say hi to Eddy and his pops - tell them Eli the American said to hook it up) - they're not on google they're so low key, but they're always willing to negotiate some great rates on a little 125 click. *This time we had a pretty substantial flood in CM, knee-high water came right up to the hotel. They were so prepared they put up sand bags and with 2 feet of water right outside the facilities, we stayed completely dry. I forgot to buy rubber slip-on shoes so the owner gave a pair of his - and wouldn't accept any money for them. Just warm good hearted down to earth Thais - AND CLEAN! *And make sure to let them know if you come after 0:00 because they don't have 24-hour receptionist so they have to pop out to check you in - which I don't mind because I don't have to say hi to someone if I'm coming back to my room at 5:00 in the morning ;)

It was the loveliest stay ever. Everything was so comfortable and CLEAN! The beds were so heavenly soft, rooms were clean, always stocked up with water. I arrived on my birthday and the building manager surprised me with a little cheesecake tart and a candle (I presume she saw it on my passport because I didn't mention it). It was a very sweet and personal touch to the stay. As many have mentioned, it's tuck slightly far away so it's quiet. There's a 7E nearby. If you love walking then the distance wouldn't bother you, if not, it can get quite tiring because most things are quite a fair distance but bolt is super cheap so that came in handy for us. All the staff members were really sweet and friendly. It was perfect.

I really enjoyed my stay at Chirin Home. The room was clean, spacey and homely decorated. They have a washing machine and a very good dryer, this makes traveling very comfortable. And as a bonus you can freshen up in the pool after a long day exploring the city. The hotel is located close to the old town and you can easily walk to a lot of great spots and local markets. But most of all I really enjoyed the great atmosphere and the nice staff, who were always ready to help. I will definitely come back next time I'm visiting Chiang Mai.

My husband is still raving about the quality of the latte and pastries we ate for breakfast! The lobby setting with pool is very compact yet it feels spacious and "screened off" from the city to create a little oasis. The bed was king-size and the walk-around areas were ample for clothes storage and shopping. We came to shop at Baan Thawai, outside of town and the location on Chiangmai-Lamphun road allowed us to travel there without going through downtown.

Staff were extremely friendly and helped book and recommend activities, incredibly clean room and communal areas, quiet, relaxing, had a nice atmosphere, great location! The ladies on reception gave us a towel to swim after we had checked out and looked after suitcases as we waited for a flight that evening. They even went above and beyond and sent our swimwear in the post as I had forgotten it. We are so appreciative of Chirin and would highly recommend to all!
