At Phra Sing Retro in Chiang Mai City

Very nice place, great located and lovely hosts. I just stayed for one night, but could easily spend some more at your place.

My overall experience with Retro at Phra Singh was amazing, right from the start. As a female traveller going solo for the very first time, it was natural for me to have a lot of questions before confirming my booking. Tivaporn patiently answered all my queries. After confirming my booking, she did up a rough itenary (and provided the details too despite being busy) during my stay at Chiang Mai which she was very open to feedback. When I reached, I was warmly welcomed by her and Nikhon, her husband. It was a very homely vibe where I felt really safe throughout my stay despite being the only guest there (I went in beginning of July which was off season.). The room was clean and well maintained, the AC was working well, hot water supply was there, toiletries provided (soap, shampoo, towel), hairdryer working well. Only issue is there was no lift (not an issue for me as a packed light) and there were mosquitoes (lucky I brought my insect repellent spray). During my stay, both Tivaporn and Nikhon gave me really good suggestions on places I could go around and checked in on me too, making me feel at home. There were some hidden gem temples I managed to explore and the best market for shopping which was Coconut market. There was also breakfast provided which was Thai style which I loved (inclusive and she does early breakfast too should you be going on a trip like for me I was headed to Doi Inthanon) and cleaning service provided by a lovely helper there. On my last day, I went to explore the markets that Tivaporn suggested after my check out and she kindly allowed me to keep the luggage in the hotel. Moreover, I had a scrape on my knee and her staff helped me in dressing the wound. I really want to thank Tivaporn and her team for making my first solo trip really special and would highly recommend to book your accommodation through her should you happen to be in Chiang Mai, especially if you are exploring around the old city.

This guest house was a great place to stay!! The owner BB is just amazing and gives you all the tips you need considering the city and surrounding area (without trying to sell you anything, which is almost unbelievable here). They provide a different breakfast everyday which is also really unique. Internet is fast, the room is clean, and the location is good, inside the old quarter but in a quiet street!

Bibi's hotel and service is just wonderful !
​
She is just so friendly and helping in every way.
For instance, she changed curtains so i sleep better even if i stayed only one week, kept my stuff one month while i was away.
​
And the quality of the rooms for the price + the beautiful common area that feels a bit like family is great.
​
I cannot recommend it enough. Marketing is not her stronger quality, so few reviews and ranking, but that's in your interest because if it was good the place would be full all the time, it's a gem.
​
And I am not used to write good reviews or even to write ones, but I had to say thx like that ;-)

Under new ownership and just reopened due to Covid. Great little place to put your things down and sleep while you go tour the city. Clean and has all your needs. No elevator so beware, but very quaint and walking distance to the main roads. I had the whole family here and everyone got their own rooms. Free wifi so the kids were happy.

The toilets aren't clean and there is often no toilet paper. Everything else looks amazing! I really recommend you go to this temple especially if the weather is nice! The thing is giant and everything is golden and blinking. It's only 30 baht per person so i think it is very nice overall.

Clean place. The rooms are made each days. Breakfast with toast, butter, jam and egg besides coffee and tea. Very kind owners. Helping to make you feel home and visit places.

The owners are very friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and matched the description. Location is great: quiet but walking distance to all the markets and temples in Old Town. Overall very good value and a great place to stay and explore Chiang Mai!

The rooms are fine, the breakfast is good, thai, different every day and cooked at the minute! With some bread, it is delicious! I would recommend to ask for a room which is not on the street as it tends to be noisy. However, what will make you come to this hotel rather than another one are the people working here. Indeed Thai people are extremely nice and helpful. But here everytime we need something, they are definitely trying to help! Moreover, it is very well located, just in front of the wat and less than 10 min walk to the main street where shops and saturday / sunday market are! We can do anything from here just by walking!
