 | Tamarind Village: In the old city

 tamarind village hotel by trisanna I have stayed at this boutique hotel three times over two years. It's a little garden oasis in the city. The location is great. Not many nicer hotels in the old city-which is surrounded by beautiful wats (temples). If you don't stay in this area, your other main choice is in the tourist ghetto by the Ping river with all the package tourists. From the hotel you can walk easily to some of the best wats, restaurants and shops. Tuk-tuks and songtaews are always hanging out by the two entrances-so it's easy to get around. The rooms are nice, but rustic. Concrete floors, hard beds, but all the rooms have stylish black and white photos and beautiful pots of orchids. If you can spend a little bit more money, i recommend the deluxe rooms which have a nice little balcony with sitting area. I have stayed on the first and second floors. The steps to the second floor are uneven and steep, but the rooms seem to have less mosquitos. If you have a problem with the mozzies then ask the staff and they will put mosquito repellent incense coils in your room. The staff are friendly and will help you with any of your travel plans. When booking your reservation don't do it through their website. I saved 30% off the room rates by booking it through another site. The breakfast was average, but has a wonderful selection of fruit juices. The pool is okay and clean, but can get crowded in the afternoon. If you are in chiang mai on a sunday afternoon-they have a great sunday market which starts outside of one of the hotel's entrances and spreads to outside the city walls. Really nice. Better and more low key than the night market. Don't worry about the market's noise, since the rooms are located off the street by the hotel's inner courtyard. Very quiet. can get discounted rate at www.hoteltravel.com
