Top hotels in Tha Sala
Rainforest Chiangmai Hotel
The property was very charming and I enjoyed my stay. It was rather tired though - worn carpets, lights not all working etc. It could use a bit of TLC! I liked the ambiance though and staff were very friendly. It's a bit far from the Old City to walk, but we used Grab and were into the heart of things ...

Melia Chiang Mai
Excellent. Friendly without being too obsequious. Clean, modern, well curated and decorated. Near night market and other must see sites. I hesitated writing this review as I don’t want too many people finding out and ruining it.
