Good budget option
Ben Guesthouse is a good budget choice in Chiang Rai. It has a good pool and is in a good location. For me, the only issues were that the traditional build meant that the rooms were not sound proof and also the bedding could do with updating as soon of the sheets were very worn and thin.

Beautiful buildings in the Lanna style in a very tranquil setting.The only room available when I booked had twin beds. When a room with a double bed became available I was moved to a superior room at no extra charge. The staff were very friendly and the front desk staff, very helpful with good English. A 15-20 minute walk into town. It was a very pleasant stay.

Disliked: Room comfort
Rooms in high traffic areas, such as next to elevators are always going to be a little noisier than others. It is to be expected. That said, creating a common area with tables and chairs right next to a bedroom window is poor judgement and inconsiderate to your customers. A customer shouldn't have to ask people not to use an area designated as a common area and hours of use should be posted. Fortunately, the card players quit at 12:30 AM. But as I was due up and on the road ~ 6 AM, this shortened my sleep time considerably, which explains the poor marks for comfort! The hotel was a little more than 1.5 Km from the downtown Clock tower and a little further to the Sat night market and night bazaar. The swimming pool was a welcome treat after a long day of Sightseeing. The room was very basic but clean. The bathroom is tiny...as in taking a shower whilst sitting on the loo.

Good value, clean, very helpful staff
It's a bit out of the way but near lots of shops and restaurants. The pool is large and clean. Laundry is cheap about $1/kg, staff are helpful and friendly. The new building is great, the older building is adequate but the roosters in the lot behind woke us at 2, 3, etc. Earplugs! Otherwise great value for money.

Very dissappointing
On arrival only one room had been booked for us took over half an hour to resolve problem.3 nights there and after asking we had no room service at all.I know it was cheap but this was not at all acceptable.We had to tie the shower head with a plastic bag to take a shower which was dirty.All in all will never stay there again.

Tucked away and very thin walls
The place can be challenging to locate at night as you walked to it. Also, the alley/small street to the location is not lit up at night. Nor are surrounding streets. So, being a solo traveler that enjoys walking, I was limited to early arrival or taking a tuk tuk. It has VERY thin walls. You can hear EVERYTHING, which was my disturbing experience. It doesn't offer free breakfast. Room was clean and comfortable.

Gorgeous property, but very uncomfortable
Gorgeous property well maintained on the outside but not so much on the inside. We stayed in 2 of the rooms near the reception area and walking into them was like walking into a fridge. We asked for an extra blanket at reception which was given to us, but that wasn't near enough to cope with the cold. There is ZERO insulation sound and temperature in these rooms (we could actually have a conversation with the room next door through the walls without needing to raise our voices). The bathroom was more like a freezer and we couldn't shower because the water wasn't hot enough. At night we had to wear all our clothes and even then we weren't able to get more than 2 hours of sleep due to how cold it was. I was travelling with 2 Canadians who are used to cold temperatures and it was too much even for them. We had booked and prepaid for 3 nights but we checked out first thing in the morning. This is northern Thailand where night temperatures go down to below 10C, there's no excuse to keep rooms in this condition. Too bad because otherwise it's a lovely property.

Best deal!
Although a little away from the town center, the hotel makes it up wirh peacefullness a nice swimming pool. Avoid rooms on the 1st floor of the new building, the view is depressing: hanging sheets aren't a pleasant stimulus! Otherwise, the staff is helpfull, the rooms are clean and the food more than decent!

Rapport qualité/prix décevant.
Nous avions réservé une chambre moderne tel que sur la photo de la chambre sur le site Hôtels. Obtenons chambre dans vieille section. Chambre très petite, a peine de l'espace pour ouvrir le placard. Lits durs. Chambre de bain poussiéreuse et miniature. Légère trace de moisissure sur rideaux douches. Petites platebande autours de la chambre avec déchets tout le long du séjour. Femme de chambre gentille, eau chaque jour. Déjeuner correct, mais pas inclus et un qualité/prix moyen. Demandons legere compensation (déjeuner) pour chambre non tel que vue, on refuse en disant qu'on aurait dû se plaindre plus tôt et propose de ma déménager pour la derniere nuit, ce qui implique de tout ramasser (2 adultes + 1 enfant + bébé). Personnels ne connaissant pas les trajets de bus vers autres villes, quoi que souriantes. Belle piscine, quelques chaises. Construction en cours a 5-10 mètres de la piscine (agrandissement), bruits de scie a béton et visseuse durant la journée, sûrement pour encore quelques semaines. Second bâtiment paraît propre et chambre d'une belle grandeur, dommage que on ne l'ai pas eu.

町の中心から遠いことを除けばOK
バスターミナルまで徒歩で30分かかります。重い荷物があるときにはお勧めできませんが、そうでなければ問題ありません。(近くにはバス,タクシー,トゥクトゥク等も走っていないので、路上で捕まえることもできません。1kmぐらい歩くと病院があって、そこまで歩けばこれらの乗り物を捕まえることは可能です。) 日曜に泊まると、結構大きなナイトマーケットが開催されていて、楽しいです。バスターミナル付近の旅行者向けではないのでお土産等は売っていなくて、生活に密着したものの販売や、リーズナブルな食べ物等のMセガ出ています。また、その地域の人が演奏したり、踊りを披露したりしています。(プロではないですが..)

庭とプールが心地よいです。
チェンライの中心地から徒歩20分くらいにあります。歩けなくはないけど、自転車かバイクがあると便利だと思います。タイらしい作りの部屋に泊まりましたが、清潔でアメニティも用意されてました。ただ、壁がとても薄いのか隣の人の話し声が丸聞こえです。外で話してる声も聞こえるので音に敏感な人はダメかも。庭やプールは充分な広さがありとても気持ちがよかったです〜!
