Chienshihyuan
January 21, 2025
Stayed here for a few nights.• This was my first time in Chiang Rai. I have nothing bad to say, the room was a good size for one person, very clean, towels, shower gel, shampoo, bottled water etc were provided, and it was cleaned every day. When I come back from a few days away, I feel great and fresh. The shower handle needs to be in a certain direction for the hot water to work - (if it's pointing towards you, more pressure = less hot water). The location is excellent, just a few minutes away from the night market, very convenient. There are many beautiful temples nearby within walking distance. There is also a clock tower, cat cafe, Watsons, bus station, Boots, restaurants, etc., all within walking distance - 5 minutes. I recommend staying here.. if you want to go further afield to see the White and Blue Temple you can hire a biker for a few baht.
I walked about 2 hours from my hotel to see the giant Buddha statue and I saw a lot of cool things along the way. I really recommend walking around and seeing the sights rather than taking transport, you will find hidden gems along the way. A+
