This is our Budget pick in Chiang Rai. It suits backpackers, couples on a tight budget and drivers, since free parking is listed. Guests consistently describe the rooms and bathrooms as tidy.
It is less suited to light sleepers. Guests say it is generally quiet, but rooms facing the adjacent parking lot can get loud bus engine noise. Anyone wanting a pool, gym or restaurant should look at our other picks, as none of those are listed here.
Location and getting around
The address is 1/9 หมู่ที่ 14 ตำบล รอบเวียง อ.เมืองเชียงราย จังหวัดเชียงราย. Guests rate the location 8.5 out of 10 and say the city centre and clock tower are walkable, with restaurants and shops nearby.
Darunaman Mosque is about 1.4 km away, around 18 minutes on foot. Wat Phra Kaew, Chiang Rai, is about 1.8 km, roughly 23 minutes. Both are fine on foot if you are happy to walk. These are straight-line estimates, so the actual route may take longer.
What guests say
The score is 8.5 out of 10 from 224 reviews. Two things come up most. First, the location, walkable to the centre and clock tower. Second, cleanliness: rooms and bathrooms are described as consistently tidy and well maintained.
The complaint to know about is noise. Rooms facing the parking lot next door can hear bus engines, which is worth avoiding if you sleep lightly.
Price and what you get, compared with our other picks
We saw a reference price of €16.94 per night, about €34 for a 2-night stay in November 2026 for 2 adults. It is not a live quote, so check today's price for your dates. That was 73% below the sample median of €62.86.
Our Best Value pick, SOOKNIRUND HOTEL, was €98.34 per night with an 8.9 and four stars. Our Luxury pick, The Heritage Chiang Rai Hotel and Convention, was €62.86 with an 8.7 and five stars. On our reference dates the Luxury pick was cheaper than the Best Value one, so compare both if you want more comfort. Here you get the essentials: free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a garden and free parking. Breakfast is not listed, so it is not confirmed.
Why it made our top 3
We compared 5 eligible properties in Chiang Rai. After reserving the upscale pick, this hotel had the lowest eligible reference price, which is how our Budget slot is chosen. It placed joint fourth of five on review score, but an 8.5 from 224 reviews is still a solid result at this price.
