Tucked away in Nimmanhaemin Soi 15, this intimate boutique hotel feels worlds away from the cafés, restaurants and nightlife just outside its doors. Behind its understated concrete exterior is a lush garden filled with tropical plants, winding pathways and a swimming pool that creates a surprisingly peaceful atmosphere in the middle of one of Chiang Mai's liveliest neighbourhoods.

A contemporary riverside hideaway where Chiang Mai's craft heritage meets bold modern design.
