Singharaj Boutique Hotel

4.5(138 reviews)

Singharaj Boutique Hotel sits on Singharat Road within the Si Phum area of Chiang Mai's Old City, placing guests within easy reach of the historic moat, temples, night markets, and local dining. The property operates on a smaller, more intimate scale than chain hotels, and reviewers consistently highlight the cleanliness of rooms, comfortable beds, and a well-maintained swimming pool as standout features. Rooms come equipped with a large refrigerator, coffee and tea-making facilities, bathrobes, and toiletries, with complimentary water bottles replenished daily.

Guest experiences vary somewhat. Several visitors rate the property alongside four and five-star hotels for cleanliness and staff attentiveness, and ground-floor rooms offer the added benefit of direct private access to the pool area. At least one reviewer, however, found the room smaller than expected and felt the boutique description did not match the reality on the ground, so prospective guests may want to review room photos carefully before booking.

Finally stayed at a place that actually feels like a proper hotel—really pleased with this one! I was on the ground floor, which has a huge perk: a private door straight out to the swimming pool—super convenient for quick dips. (Downside: occasional small bugs sneak in even with doors/windows closed, as expected with pool access.) The room was well-equipped: strong WiFi, plenty of outlets and light switches right by the bed, complimentary bottled water, shampoo, shower gel, toothbrush, and more. Bed was comfy and everything felt clean. Location is excellent—smack in the center of the old town, easy walking distance to everything. A couple of minor notes: it's a wet-room style shower (whole bathroom floor gets wet, including the bath mat), the water heater struggled a bit in cooler weather (water was only lukewarm at night), and like most places in Thailand, toilet paper goes in the bin, not the toilet. Overall, great value and comfort for the price. Would definitely stay again—highly recommend if you want convenience and that real hotel vibe!

This place is the best! We’ve stayed in 4 and 5 star hotels in Phuket and Koh Lanta and this place is at least just as clean and put together if not more so than the best of them. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Huge shoutout to ‘O’ for making our stay amazing. The location is awesome, everything’s awesome. 100% recommend - it looks just as nice as the pictures :)

Very disappointed – there is absolutely nothing “boutique” about this hotel. The photos are misleading. The room was small, and not very clean. There is a huge fridge right next to the bed that clearly needed cleaning, and the bedding thin and smelled old and damp. The lighting is awful: either harsh ceiling spotlights or a very dim bedside light, with no lamp. All rooms open onto an echoing corridor, and the beds are hard and uncomfortable. It feels much more like a hostel than a hotel. Booked for 4 nights but checked out after 1 and moved to a 4 star hotel for the same price. Based on our experience, the positive reviews are baffling and did not match what we encountered at all.
