Chiang Mai Travel Forum

Hi all.
We stayed in Chiang Mai during October 2007 and plan on returning during January 2009.
We don't remember the name of the hotel we stayed at and enjoyed. We remember the location. I will try to give exact directions:
When leaving the night bazaar on the northern end you turn left (on Tae Phae Street), walk a few blocks and the hotel is on the left side a bit off the street.
There is a driveway to the entrance and then it continues under the building to a small parking lot. The entrance to the hotel is on a side street. On the right side there is a glassed in restaurant/coffee shop. On the left of the lobby is a spa center.
The name may have something Japanese in it, or not.
It is situsted right near Wat Bupparam (with a Donald Duck statue in the front yard).
On the corner of Tae Phae Street is a motorbike rental shop with scooters parked along the way.
If anyone out there can help us, we thank you in advance.

Hi there!

I think the hotel you're wanting is the Tapae Place Hotel... it matches your description and is just next to Wat Bupparam. I've stayed there before and it is a clean, safe budget hotel.

Thank you so much.
We looked Thae Pae Place hotel up and found pictures. That is the place.
Thanks again.
