This hotel is a hidden gem! I checked in to Arun Dara Villa after checking out of another hotel that was very disappointing. They had only one villa left and looking at the pictures I thought it was too good to be true but booked it anyway. I am so glad I did! The hotel and staff made me so at home — I was sad to leave.
The “villas” are 100% as pictured. The space is large and modern with a smartTV. This was a big deal for me given the original hotel did not nor did it have a single English channel. The room is bright with natural light. Shower has dual shower head, which is a plus since I took a lot of showers given I had my own personal plunge pool!
For the most affordable price (I’ve ever seen) I had my own terrace with seating and a pool! Inside the room was also a full size bathtub to soak and relax. Keyword: RELAX!!!
I came to Chaing Mai to relax and enjoy less hustle and bustle as in Bangkok. The only thing I would change is not staying at Arun Dara Villa longer!
The location is convenient to walking to plenty. There is a 7-11 right before you pull into the street it’s on. There are also plenty of cafes and places to eat. Also, it’s not far from a bar district.
Last, biggest compliment goes to the staff. The desk attendants greet you coming and going. When I ordered food, they made it to my door to drop it off before I could put my shoes on to pick it up myself. They were the most kind, courteous team. Especially my friend who checked me in. She was the best.
